Guys, it's Jubilee.

I'm okay. I'll come home tomorrow.

Everyone alright?

[ He was at work and busy, so it took him until browsing on his NV during his break to see--upon which liquid sprayed from his mouth, feet kicked off papers from his desk as he notified Tenma and rushed outside for more privacy.

That is, after he recovered from a few near-heart attacks and something close to a brain aneurysm. ]

JUBILEE.
You're--
Where--
How--

You're alive!?

[Jubilee actually sounds vaguely insulted. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Prof.]

Of course I'm alive. Think some bullshit like this can kill me? I was trained by Wolverine.

[ Well Wolverine's died a few times so... ]

I--no, I didn't think you were dead, but I was starting to...I wasn't sure when we'd see you again.

I didn't mean to offend. I've just...[ been not sleeping and ditching work and waging war on the city's criminal underbelly in the time that you've been gone because apparently I couldn't handle your disappearance in a more healthy fashion ]

Are you safe? Do you need medical aide? Someone can come get you. [ He kind of doubted she'd be wanting HIM to come get her, which, as long as she was brought somewhere safe, he could deal with for now. ]

I'm safe, Professor. I'm going to get a cab in the morning and I'll be home, I promise.

You'll have shelter from the darkness tonight? Somewhere safe from being kidnapped again? further problems?

I'm at a friend's house, Professor. I'm just not up to running the Darkness tonight. I'm going to stay here and then I'll be home.

That sounds like a wise idea. I trust your judgment. We'll have the room ready for you tomorrow.

[ Be amazed! His willpower has returned! So he's not going to rape your mind and break down Light's door! ]

[ Somewhat weakly. ] I can pick up some cheeseburgers for your return...

I... I can't eat them, Professor. Stomach's more than a little tender. I'm eating applesauce and tea right now. Thank you, though.

[ That bad? ]

I'll...take you out when you're better then. [ She can't see the strain on his face. He's resisting a hundred urges in favor of not pushing her away. ]

[ He wants to tell her he was worried. Explain how she's the only one of his children here, and he's scared to lose her (there's Doug but they never really knew each other well). But he doesn't. ]

I am so glad to hear from you, Jubilation.

[Just wait until he sees the skeleton that she's become.]

I'm gonna hold you to that, Prof. I'm sorry I worried you.

I'll make it a promise then.

[ His voice leaks with the compassion it hasn't expressed lately. ]

It isn't your fault, dear. Isn't your fault at all. [ Whoever did this was going to pay, but right now he was too relieved to hear from her to feel anything close to the need for vengeance. ]
