I'm not surprised. It's been months since we've had a virus; one was going to crop up sooner or later.

At least I'm not affected, so my training won't be delayed.

It's good to see you again.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I'm surprised you recognized me. The last time you saw me, I was eight.

Are you all right?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

I've grown accustomed to telling the difference. [She doesn't want to admit that she ages so slowly that she has grown used to seeing people who were once in her age group growing into adults way before her.]

I'm fine. What about you, Princess?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... I'm all right. Where are you? Are you alone? Are you actually fine or are you just saying that?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

... I'm alone in my room since lessons are done for today. I feel fine.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Are you lonely? Where is your family?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

They're all in their private quarters until morning.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Forcibly?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

It's where we're supposed to be after training and lessons.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You should be allowed to go where you want.

I can worldhop. I could come there and bring them to you, and whoever's making these rules would never know.

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

I don't think that's a good idea.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

They'll notice if we leave.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't take you anywhere unless you wanted to go. Would they notice if I brought your family temporarily into your room, without using hallways or other public areas?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

They would. Our rooms have cameras in them.

Princess?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I wonder if I could find some way to trick it, or cover it up.

You're unhappy being alone.

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

You don't have to do that.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I know, but I want to.

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

I don't want you to get into trouble.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I won't. Can I show you?

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

... You can if you promise to leave if someone finds out you're here.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

I will. I wouldn't get you in trouble.

[and she appears in Lilith's room!]

I NEED TO USE THESE ICONS, OKAY?!

[marsprototype.livejournal.com]

[Lilith is standing up straight in her room. She's apprehensive but, not just because someone suddenly appeared in her quarters. This was dangerous for both of them.]

Hello Princess.
