[Her voice is a little shaky at first, but steadies as she speaks.]

There was an explosion earlier today, at the library. I guess it would have been yesterday, by now... the sun should be rising soon.

Mister Romulus was one of the people hurt, really badly. He really doesn't want to go back to the hospital. They cleaned his burns, and I think he said that he'd been on an IV, but... he couldn't have been there long enough for them to fix everything. He was really badly b—

[A sharp whistle of a teapot from a foot or so away, and Ruka cuts herself off. The communicator is set down, though from the way it rattles on the counter her hands must be shaking. The whistling stops. The following is spoken over the noise of a quiet faucet, the pouring of the kettle, and eventually the crack of sharply melting ice. There will be no hot tea for the burn victim.]

Badly burned. I need to know what I can do to help him. My power isn't healing... and it really doesn't look like something that just sleeping will fix. Please. I don't want him to suffer.

[ooc: unless the time line for this plot has changed, Remus was caught in massive computer explosions on Saturday, and is thus not a happy camper. Also as of Wednesday Edgeworth's apartment is unplottable / unable to be found due to magic, though if people leave the apartment they can be found.
Unless Ty and/or Grimm say differently. Watch this space for details!]

Alright, I will.

That guy only did it to apologize for something, so... please don't hold it against him?

A strange man went into your room through my mirror, and are you sure that you are all right?

Yes, I'm alright. Talking to monsters is normal for me.

He was a monster?

Yes?

There was a monster in your bedroom?

Yes? It's not that unusual. Before I came here, more of my friends were monsters than people.

Ruka, child, monsters here are different from your monsters back home.

No, I don't mean monster as in terrible person. I mean a literal monster, and he's my friend. They're not all that different.

Are you sure he is not going to hurt you?

I'm very sure. He came to apologize because something he did... upset me, a lot. If he wanted to hurt me, he would have said nothing.

Be careful, Ruka, and stay safe. If you ever need somewhere to go, use the mirror.

I will, I promise. I just have to ask for you, right?

Yes, child. Just think of me.

And do be careful. Really.

Alright. I will. And... thank you for worrying about me, but I'll be okay. I promise.

I will try not to, but it is rather hard, you must know.

Yeah, I know.
