[She doesn't respond to him the next day, or even the next week. But she'll get back to him eventually.]

Stuff happens here.

True.

Though that's true of anywhere. But the stuff that happens here often shouldn't.

How are you doing?

[finewithhalf]

I'm fine.

[Because "fine" is faster. "Fine" doesn't leave an opening for more conversation about uncomfortable subjects.]

I see. I always go with "peachy".

[He knows that trick all too well.]

[finewithhalf]

Too obvious. ppl ask questions.

[catchacold]

People never ask me too much, but I can see why that'd be different with you.

Right.

Maya, for what it's worth. I'm sorry. If you weren't associated with me, that mirror wouldn't have gone after you both. That's on me.

You matter to me. Most people don't. That mirror wants to hurt me. There's not many ways to do that, but going after the people I care about does the trick.

I'm gonna keep my distance, should have done that from the start and you'd not have gotten hurt over this. But as I said, if you or Riley ever need anything, you just gotta say.

I'm not gonna stop caring.
