  1. "So... anyone else really never want to go back to that place?"
  2. Elan stands there even more awkwardly.
  3. "So... you just gonna keep napping?" Elan asks.
  4. Elan starts at the yell. "Goodness, you can be loud when you want!" he says, surprised. He looks down towards Aventine, offering a hand to help her up off the glitter-speckled floor.
  5. "So... glitter. Who is in jail for this?" Elan says, glancing around.
  6. “So. Waking up. Have fun! I’ll be waiting outside.” Elan fades away and appears above her unconscious body.
  7. "Oh. Well, apparently he's dead. Sorry." The Once Author said.
  8. "I think he's in the other room." The Once Author turns. "Grandpa?" He calls.
  9. Elan smiles softly, looking down at Aventine. He glances down, just for a split second, at her lips, then back up at her eyes. His arms are still around her, gently holding her.
  10. "Then I died." Elan says softly. "I'm... I'm sorry. I'm so, so, so sorry." He takes a deep breath. "I promise, it's not your caring that kills them. Yes, people die, yes, it hurts. But it's worth it. If I were to die right now, I would be happy I was able to spend the time I have with you. I would much rather have you care about me and die early than live a long long time without ever feeling any of that. If... if that makes any sense."
  11. "I am the Once Author?" The Once Author said, confused. "You're at home I think? Who are you?"
  12. The Once-Author's eyes widen, and he flinches backwards. "NO!"
  13. Elan held her tightly. Because... it's mine. He thinks to himself. "Because I... was there. And it wasn't you. I felt... who it was. It wasn't you. I promise. By all my remaining physicality, I promise this was not your fault."
  14. "Yes," Elan says, knowing this wasn't the time to show any shred of doubt. "I will. I promise." He has a pang of guilt at lying, but... well, he shouldn't worry her. It'd just hurt her more. "I will."
  15. The Once-Author appears between Larid and the girl. "STOP! IT EXPLODES! DON'T TRY IT!!!"
  16. Elan leaned his head on hers, holding her tight. He sensed that silence was the best thing right now, so he just quietly wiped her tears. "Shh. Shh. I'm here. I'm here." he says quietly, soothingly, almost imperceptibly.
  17. "I was kinda dead. Ish. And now I'm not. Either way, no. None of it was your fault. You couldn't stop it and you didn't cause it. You're not at fault. And I still love you, you're still my friend."
  18. "I'm very resilient. And quite a bit of Tylenol and Ibuprofen." He pauses. "Oh. And yielding my body, separating my consciousness from it."
  19. "No, not really." Elan says. He wraps an arm around Aventine, trying to comfort her. "I'm here. I'm still here. I'll am here for you. I promise."
