[012] [Voice/action for around the coral]

[witchbuster]

[A nice SLAP sound disrupts whatever peace and quiet there was on the SFC network and the outside in general. This rude awakening comes in the form of two teenagers sprawled over each other looking disoriented as all get out.

Eventually, a voice one would recognize as belonging to Maka Albarn filters through.]...Soul? We're not in Death City

[hatetodismiss]

Ah, I was wondering where you'd run off to.

[Voice]

[witchbuster]

Hey, Kid. How much time has passed here?

[Voice]

[hatetodismiss]

Just three days. How long were you at home?

[Voice]

[witchbuster]

Months.

The upside is now I know what's going on at home.

The downside is...we're here. So I guess we'll just have to settle in again.

[Voice]

[hatetodismiss]

It shouldn't be that difficult, Maka.

[Voice]

[witchbuster]

I found Crona. It's going to take me a while, Kid.

[Voice]

[hatetodismiss]

You found...

Where?

[Voice]

[witchbuster]

The cathedral where we first met him...he's waiting for me there.

["And now I'm here." She's feeling all the frustration he felt when he came back.]

[Voice]

[hatetodismiss]

[Kid takes a deep breath, gathers authority.]

Crona will still be waiting when you get back. Time moves differently here.

[Crona is waiting for Maka. Crona is asking to be killed by Maka.]

[Voice]

[witchbuster]

...Thanks. I guess it's easy to forget about that when you're the one that's worrying about something.

[Voice]

[hatetodismiss]

[Oh Maka, failure to put things in perspective characterizes Death the Kid's entire life.]

Understandable.

Are you and Soul going to be all right getting back to the villa?

[Voice]

[witchbuster]

Yeah, no need to worry, we'll be fine.

[Voice]

[hatetodismiss]

All right. I'll see you two soon.
