...Attention passengers. We are now approaching Edge Outer Station. Please gather your belongings and prepare to disembark. This is the last stop. I repeat, we are now approaching Edge Outer Station...

Elena! [James grinned as he pulled up the feed which showed the cafe and then he suddenly pops into existence a few feet from her.]

Wow! Nice hat.

[Video-->Action]

[provenworth]

Ja-

[She didn't even get his name out. Honestly, she wasn't expecting that she would, leaning lightly against the upright handle of her luggage when he appeared.] -mes!

Hat? [Her eyes turn up, unable to see the article of clothing, and grinned. A hand reached up to pat the top of the animal print accessory.] Thanks...I got it on sale, I couldn't pass it up.

[Action]

[masked_stag]

[James just laughed and hugged her. He didn't care, he was just glad to see her.]

I've missed you.

[Action]

[provenworth]

Aaah! [Why yes, that hug was unexpected. But she'd allow it, and even go so far as to pat his back gently in response.]

I have to say, I missed everybody in the city - at least, I did when I arrived back and realized I was back and how horrible it was that I didn't even remember you all back home until I showed up here again...

[And that short awkward ramble was quickly ended with an appropriate follow-up question]

Come now, I haven't been gone that long?

[Video]

[asapphireheart]

Welcome back to the city, Elena.

You're lucky, you missed the zombies. But you're just in time for Christmas.

[Video]

[provenworth]

Thank you, Aqua. I hope things have been relatively...

[Zombies.

Did she just say zombies?

Zombies. In Ruby City. And she missed out on living her favorite movie genere....

WHAT WAS SO LUCKY ABOUT THAT, AQUA?!]

I guess things haven't been all that quiet then, huh? Does that make my return an early Christmas gift to the city? [There's a short chuckle at that.]

Re: [Video]

[asapphireheart]

[Lucky part being that she missed the nasty, vomit-inducing smell of zombie flesh. Especially when there were people using fire to kill them. Aqua included.]

When are things ever quiet here?

[Aqua laughs with her.]

It's always a nice surprise to have someone come back.

[Video]

[provenworth]

[That's a good point. Burning dead zombie flesh probably stinks worse than a three-day old rotting chocobo corpse. Don't ask how she knows.]

Rarely ever. I hope that's the only thing that's been going on.

[There's a warm smile forming on her lips as her head tilts slightly to one side.]

You know, its actually kind of nice to be back. I did have some unfinished business here and I get the added bonus of reuniting with many people.

[video!]

[brotherxcomplex]

Elena!

[ She gives her a warm smile, seems like she didn't disappear after all. Seeing her made her feel slightly better, since she did come back, and she was just fine too! With very nice warm clothing, as well! ]

[video!]

[provenworth]

Why hi there, Lili.

[Now this was a welcomed face and Elena can't help but beam at the younger blonde. Despite her dislike of having been brought back, at least she was granted more time to spend with Lili. She hadn't been....in the right frame of mind to appreciate her last time.]

I'm sorry if I worried you at all.

[video!]

[brotherxcomplex]

Oh... Don't worry about it at all, we don't have control over the things in this place, right?

[ Not for now, anyway, maybe... One day. But that was something to be thought about later, now she couldn't help but give Elena a gentle smile. ]

Need any help?

[Video]

[coolerthansora]

[No warm welcome back here, but she did say something very interesting.]

You mean- you left this place, and you still remembered?

[Video]

[provenworth]

[S'okay. This is a new face to her anyway.]

That's what I'm going to assume. For a few seconds after arriving I couldn't tell where I was when suddenly everything was familiar. Places, faces, names. Things that happened here.

[Video]

[coolerthansora]

Did you remember when you were- home? ...were you home?

[Video]

[provenworth]

[Her head nods.]

I do and I was. For about two years from when I was first brought here I was back on my home world.

I'm sorry, I don't think I've introduced myself. I'm Elena. I ran - and will continue running - the ShinRa Apartments. And you are?

[Action]

[frillsalwayswin]

[Goro glances up from his newest volume of shoujo manga, blinking at the voice. When she mentions "room to return to", Goro blinks and puts the manga away, waving cheerfully.]

Ah, I guess I should say 'Welcome back' and not 'Welcome to the city'! Welcome back!

[Action]

[provenworth]

A-ah...

[She hadn't expected somebody to be so close by, thought the actual presence of a somewhat familiar face was welcomed. She'd seen this face several times over the communicator and, since being rude was hardly necessary at this point and time, she returned the wave.]

Thank you. I can honestly say its a mixed feeling, but I am somewhat happy to be back.

[Action]

[frillsalwayswin]

[Goro nods in understanding.] Mm, I can't say I'd be popula happy if I were back here but it seemed like the right thing to say, so I said it! Ah, I'm Goro Fumonji! Just call me 'Goro' if you'd like.

[Action]

[provenworth]

...... [Goodness, this person was quite the ball of energy, weren't they?]

I think it was the appropriate thing to say, thank you. And its a pleasure to meet you, Goro. I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself before. My name is Elena.
