[the conversation is littered with laboured pauses, his difficulty in speaking evident]
Hi there, Kairi!
I would have answered, but I was trying to get back from the... the bathroom. It takes a long time since my coordination is all but gone. I've also managed to forget where the bathroom is on a couple of occasions, but... but my care nurse is incredibly helpful and patient with me, even if she is old enough to be my mother. Have to let Fran off the 24 hour guard every so often, don't I? Besides, she's vomiting morning until night, she needs sleep too...
Violet, my care nurse, has taught me how to use the new phone I have, seeing as the... the... the seizure I had pretty much eradicated that memory from my brain. She's got me signed up for physiotherapy, counselling and speech therapy, seeing as my speech is rather slurred and I'm pretty... slow at it too, which I think you can tell.
I also had all my hair shaved off. Very sad. But I would like to... see you! How are you?

It's okay! I was just afraid that I had woken you up or something and you need your sleep!
I'm glad you have a nice nurse though! It's certainly better than the evil one Riku had when he was in the hospital last year.
[sounds concerned] Is Fran sick...? The last thing you need is to have her sick and trying to take care of you...
I'm good... I'm ready to get back to campus and see everyone. I've heard my sister is going to steal Fran away for a while when we get back to campus...
You just hang in there, okay? You're loved and we're all thinking about you.

Oh no, you caught me during one of the rare hours when I'm awake. I'm... rarely ever awake these days. But both Violet and Fran take good care of me. I'm appa... apparently very low-maintenance. I think it's because I sleep so much!
O-Oh no, no no she's not sick. She's... well... she's pregnant. It's gotten to the stage where we fight over who gets to vomit when, b-because I've been vomiting a lot lately too.
And your sister and Fran are having a mini-date? Well, that'll give us time to talk together, won't it? That'll be nice.

HEEEEEEEEEEY~! Don't know if you celebrate it or not, but according to my online calendar, it's Intergalactic Talk Like A Pirate day! :D HAPPY THAT TO MY FAVORITE PIRATES EVER! I'll order cupcakes and have them sent up. ^^ And non-alcoholic margaritas or something, so Mama can join in the fun. :D

They do! It's fun! We used to dress up on the salvage ship, but that was a long time ago when Pops was still fun. And you've heard of it now! Take that!
But I don't like the way you said that last bit! What's wrong with Fran? Did something happen? Is she okay? Are YOU okay?

[sounds tired]
Hey Balthier! I know I haven't talked to you in a while, but that's what being stuck in the hospital does to you! I hate being cooped up in this room and I wish I could come see you...
Anyways, I just called to see how you were doing since I haven't heard from you in a while...

You're sick then, are you dear? Awww, take care of yourself. Do as you're told, be a good girl and you'll get better faster. Can't have a sick Kairi now, can we~?
I'm sort of... not in the hospital today... busted out this morning. Was going totally crazy and slipped out when no one was paying attention~
Re: [Voice Mail Reply]strahlflyerSeptember 19 2009, 20:10:20 UTC
You truly are a magnet for anything vaguely infectious aren't you, dear? Poor thing...
I don't care at this stage. I honestly don't. I just need one day of freedom, to breathe fresh air and not feel like I'm incarcerated in a white-walled prison... I'll go back this evening, don't worry...

Hey Balthier, it's me. I have to leave town for a couple days. Don't worry, nothing's wrong, just have a few things that I need to take care of while I'm still able to do it. I'll be back soon, promise!
I love you and I'll see you sometime on Sunday if things go well

I dunno if you're asleep or what, but Namine told me what happened and god I hope you're okay.
W-we're going to be back in town in a couple days and I'm going to come see you, if you want me to that is...
Feel better soon, okay?

Must say, I've never heard of it. And yes, send cupcakes and non-alcoholic margaritas, I get the feeling Fran is going to need them...

As for the rest, I'm not sure whether or not Fran knows I decided to, ah, let myself out for the day...~

I swear I left a note for you, darling. I'd never just let you worry about me, not after last time...
