[Shortpack has epic skills in finding 7. Not to mention he hasn't caught up with her since he went off to emo all by himself. So hi, 7, have a Shortpack]

So here you are.

[She's not going to let you know how relieved she is to see you, BFF; she'd been beginning to wonder if the castle had sent you home!]

I've been here for a while now, [Ever since she was almost 'hawked'] what's your excuse?

[She's smiling, so a pretty good indication you're safe!]

[Sorry, girl, he was just brooding and kind of hoping the castle would never send him home]

I had some bad news from home, kinda needed time to think. [He's not stupid enough to lie to her but, oh hey! Distraction time] Nice paintings.

[Ooooooh, she knows the feeling. And, she's smart enough not to press!]

They're from 13. [Her expression is far off and bittersweet as she pastes one of the drawings onto the page and smooths it out thoughtfully. She's burnt through most of the pain in the Danger Room, but still needs some distraction herself] You haven't seen my spear, have you? I thought I'd left it in here, but I haven't found it.

Oh. Well, it's good you have something to remember. [Just because he was brooding doesn't mean he wasn't keeping an eye on her] Sorry, I haven't.

[Teasingly] You didn't throw it at anyone, did you?

Yes, at least I have that. [Silent Worrying is okay by 7!]

[Laughs] I can't remember. You don't feel anything sticking out of your back, do you?

[Oh good, he can do silent worrying well. Shortpack chuckles, shaking his head]

You know, last time I checked? My back was spear free.

Well, that's a pity. [She's smiling though; distraction is working!] Thankfully I made another one in the mean time. [She makes a motion to the chopstick/razor/wire combination leaning against the pot.] It's not perfect, but it'll do for now.

[He's glad] Thanks for the show of sympathy, there. [And he'll stare at that for a few moments]

...That looks like it could disembowel something preeeety quickly.

Hey, it's a scary castle out there; a girl's got to have some protection. [A knowing smile, though; it's the rest of the castle that had better watch out!]

Speaking of disemboweling, did you bring back anything interesting from your expedition, or was it just guts?

I almost feel sorry for whatever you're protecting yourself against. Though it probably deserves whatever it gets.

[He shakes his head] Nope, only guts and horrible nightmares.

[Have an aggravated tone here] Lets just say I'm not going out on the roof without it.

[A small chuckle, and then serious] Well, at least everyone's safe.

I don't blame you. I think anything will think twice before trying to grab you again.

[A pause, and he nods] Apart from the mental scarring, yeah.

Well, at least I'm prepared now, just in case. [Smiles, because sharp pointy things are cool!]

[She's watching you closely for a moment, but she's not going to say anything.]

Better to be prepared.

[Oh no, he sees that. He waves his hands] OH no, not me. I've seen way worse than that. I meant other people.

Between that spear and York's Danger Room, I should be ready for anything! [Today's lesson: Guns and Grenades 101!]

[She gives him a nod and a small smile.] Is it sad that that's actually a good thing? I mean, that we've suffered through such horrors from home that all the crazy stuff that happens here doesn't really phase us?
