015 ~ [Voice]

[distressedude]

[For anyone who knows Ion well enough to be considered a friend, or perhaps just well enough to say you've had a conversation with him at some point in the past, you just might catch a filter at some point during the day. It's a small, weak, empty filter and it'll disappear only a few minutes after it's made, so chances are you might miss it. But for those who happen to see it, there's an explanation that follows... though there's no filter here.]

[His voice sounds rather tired, and perhaps a bit sad.]

...when you can't set up a filter to someone, it means they've gone home, doesn't it.

[The way he asks, it sounds like he already knows the answer.]

[He nods. That might be true, but he can't help it. He hates feeling like this.]

[After a moment:]

...are you upset with him?

[actions]

[silversnowfall]

Well I'm not very happy with him. [but when is she ever?]

...At least, this time, he seems to be aware of how dire the consequences of his actions could have been.

[distressedude]

[A small nod.] He apologized to me for what happened after we were returned. I know he didn't intend to cause me any harm. He only wanted me out of harm's way...

[Ion still seems distressed; she slowly rubs his back in an attempt to be comforting.]

You don't need to dwell on it if doing so is causing you pain.

[actions]

[distressedude]

[It is comforting, probably more so because he's been laying down so much, his back is getting sore. It probably wouldn't be so bad if his wings weren't in the way.]

[He doesn't say anything, just nodding and trying to focus his mind elsewhere.]
