If you're sure. [ he will happily set the bar-table though because he likes being useful. ]
... I can't decide if it's better or worse to say "I doubt it." I mean I'm sure they are with trying to work out their problems, but at the same time I don't think it's the same as this.
I don't disagree. [ constantly haunted by the ideas of how all of these people died, frankly. ] Hopefully things aren't too out of hand over there with the newest additions...

Yeah... with the other four hosts watching out for them, too, I'm not that worried. I know they're keeping busy. That's probably the most we can hope for right now, and we just have to keep them in the loop on our side.
Yeah, same. I have a bunch of messages I need to answer but... I wanted to have time to really dedicate to them. Focus on what I want to say, you know? Especially if they can really only answer us once a week as themselves right now.
They did send me a bunch of... normal birthday messages in the middle of the week, so I think it's getting a little better.
[ maybe two messages a week now. ]
I'm not very good at letters. Or knowing what I want to say. I just want them all to come back so we can talk like this instead. [ NOT THAT HE'S GOOD AT TALKING EITHER ] It's nice that you put so much thought into it. I'm sure they enjoy that.
... that's kind of cute. [ no that's really sweet? what the fuck. ] I'd call that a good sign though that they were able to reach out like that. Anders did mention he was hoping it'd get better. And Vi said the same, but I didn't get a chance to write again to test it out with her.
[ he shakes his head. ]
I think you say exactly what you want to say all the time, and it's just up to us to figure out what it means. [ haru is a little weirdo, but he accepts it and figures everyone else does, too. ] I've... had a lot of practice with letters, especially lately. I used to write them back and forth both as Gabriel and as God for the souls over at the healing center. Our mail wasn't as instant and letters sometimes got derailed, but it forced me to be a lot more intentional. Same with my text messages for the living side. In the end, people who care about you just want to know you're doing okay, and people in general want to know they're heard. The fact that you're thinking of it as not wanting to make them feel forgotten is already a lot better than some people.

[ he's a good cook, so he'll leave jonas to set the table. tiki bar. whatever. ]
You think the others on the other side are stressed too?

...They deserve a break. [ for dying ] It sounds like they had a hectic week anyway.
