22 tightropes walked - voice

Anne's gone...Anne Shirley, for those of you who knew 'er. Didn't turn up at the apartment for a day or so an' it weren't like 'er t'do that.

So I got worried an' checked that hall - Hall of the Missing? - an' 'er picture was up there.

'm glad she got t'go back 'ome to 'er family. I'll miss 'er though.

[in a softer voice] Guess it's just you an' me again, yeah, Tiger? [and there's a short answering bark from her dog before the feed cuts off.]

I'm sorry you're down a roommate, Freckles.

Do you and Tiger want to come over for a while? I was thinking about making hot chocolate.

[sighing] Can't seem t'keep anyone around. Not that I'd 'ave wanted 'er t'stay when she got t'go 'ome.

Yeah, sure, please!

That's the way things go sometimes. Just remember that you'll get to go home someday, too.

Great! I'll get the water boiling.

Yeah. I remember. Sure takin' a while though.

Be there in a bit!

That'll make it all the better when you go back, right?

I'll see you!

We don' remember when we go back though, do we?

Well... no. Not always, I guess. Some people do, though. I mean, I've talked to a couple of people who remembered things when they were at home. It'd be nice, I think--going home and getting to keep your memories.

They really do? Would be nice. Don' want t'forget you an' everyone else.

Mm hm, that's what they said.

Maybe it's best not to think about that now. No one really knows what happens after the City--when you leave permanently, I mean--so there's no sense worrying about it.

Yeah...we'll find somethin' more cheerful t'talk 'bout once I get there.

Definitely.

And you know you're always welcome to come over whenever you want, right? Even if you don't need anything.

I know. Thanks, Penny. An' you too, yeah?

Sure thing, and thank you right back.

She did leave, then.

Yeah, 'm afraid so. Wasn't sure at first but when I checked...

I'm sorry.

S'alright. She's with 'er family, s'what matters.

We always miss those who are gone.

Yeah. Especially when...well, we ain't from the same world, don' know if we'll ever get t'see 'em again.

Parting is always a bit painful, but. It doesn't have to be forever.

I don' know...seems likely t'be. Unless she ends up 'ere again, an' I wouldn't wish that on 'er.

You never know.

Guess so...

'ow've you been, Anew?

Ah... well. Really, really well, actually.

'm glad! S'good t'hear.

Mm. And I hope it will be that way for you, too.

Yeah, 'sides from people leavin' 'm doin' pretty well too. Almost gettin' used to the place.

It's not so bad- getting used to it will make you more prepared.

S'true. Even with the curses an' everythin'. It does 'elp.

What's...woah, Tiger, easy! [the dog starts barking at the sight of the cat and takes a flying leap at the device]

[A creepy disembodied giggle as the smile fades away from the screen.]

[holding the barking dog and staring] What was that?

I'm sorry, Doll.

'ey Suou. S'alright. S'better that she's 'ome, ain't it?

Unexpected partings are always the most difficult.

An' ain't that true. It's strange...I know people leave any time from 'ere but I really weren't expectin' it at all.

Well, most of us are waiting for it to happen, at least.

Maybe s'cause I've been 'ere so long without leavin'.

How long is that?

S'been more'n eight months now.
