[Over the phone, this is backdated to yesterday evening, after Kallen's droning.]

My… my hand. They took my hand.

It can't… there's--there's no way…

The Guren. I can't--can't be a pilot like this…

Dammit. I still--

I still… dammit, dammit…

What will you do now?

[radiant_will]

[Her voice is hollow.]

I don't know.

[an_zero]

You don't need to decide immediately.

There's always something to do, so keep in mind that 'nothing' is never and will never be the right answer.

[radiant_will]

I guarantee it won't be nothing.

But you can still try anything and get nothing as a result.

Have you had your wound tended to?

[radiant_will]

Yes. One of my friends who's a doctor fixed it up.

[an_zero]

Do you remember what the people that did this to you looked like?

[radiant_will]

No, sorry. I don't really remember any of it.

[an_zero]

It's about what I expected.

[radiant_will]

Makes it hard to get back at them, doesn't it. Or figure out how they do it.
