“I fully support that.”

Yelena laughs and gives him a tight hug. Maybe…maybe things’ll be better, now.

She sure hopes so.

<END SCENE>

[YAYYY YIPPEEE] [yayyy!!!]

[silhouette-anon]

”Yeah. It’s…really nice to have that closure. And also a bit uncanny.”

She laughs.

“Two exes down, one to go. If we ever see Daniel, though, I’m not going to be quite as willing to hear him out.”

If we see Daniel, I swear to God he's going to end up worse than Carbine did.

[silhouette-anon]

”I-I’m okay. Thanks, Art.”

She smiles. He gives them both finger guns.

“If you need an IT guy again, I’ll be hanging around Grif’s place. Or you could just use the terminal. Good luck, you two.”

He walks out the door.

Okay, thank you.. Good luck to you too..

..When Artem leaves, Simon sighs.

That went... Surprisingly well..

[silhouette-anon]

”I…I think I oughta go. Thanks for not punching me again, man.”

..Yeah, you're welcome.. Uhm..

..Thanks for helping us. Sorry for punching you the first time.

As he talks, he reaches over and puts a comforting hand on Yelena's shoulder, giving her a worried glance.

[silhouette-anon]

”Yel, I may not be smart, but-“

…Yelena suddenly hugs Artem, taking him entirely off guard. She pulls back and begins to cry.

“Thank you…”

Simon tensed when she started crying.

[silhouette-anon]

Yelena sighs.

“Alright. To conclude, you were an idiot.”

“Guilty as charged.”

“And to be honest? I’m sick and tired of carrying your mistakes around.”

“Me too.”

“…and you…seemed to have good intentions. I was…more hurt because I thought you’d just…never loved me.”

“Wh- Now that hurts. You were my universe, I can tell you that for a fact.”

…

“I…I know how much belonging matters to you, Yel.”

…

“You belonged, there. I promise. I didn’t just…tolerate you. And I’m sure these guys don’t, either.”

..Simon's expression has softened by now. He doesn't seem entirely friendly yet, but at least he doesn't look like he's about to kill someone.

[silhouette-anon]

”An idiot in high school who thought he knew what he was doing.”

..Right.

[silhouette-anon]

From what he can hear, it’s mostly just her asking about various people. Lots of names he doesn’t know. Mostly normal stuff.

After all that’s done, she asks him:

“Alright, enough beating around the bush. Why did you date her behind my back.”

“Well, first off, I didn’t date her. I went on dates WITH her, because she told me that she’d ruin me and you if I didn’t. And we both know she totally had that kind of power. And I was stupid, so I thought I could just. Take care of it without ever…telling you.”

“That was a terrible idea.”

“No kidding.”

Simon quietly returns with some soda and two cups of tea.

..Who in the world could ever think that would work out?

MEMORYQUEST: Memory of a BIRTHDAY

It was far, far past midnight in the Mallory household. Only three people were left awake after the long party:

Edward, who was on the verge of passing out, but could not bring himself to fall asleep just yet,

Alice, who's eyes were laser focused on the movie playing on screen,

and Elida, who also watched the movie with large, curious eyes, but with less vigor than Alice.

Thirteen; that was her age now, and that was the number of times she had watched Alice in Wonderland. She practically had the entire script memorized by now.

Alice took another bite of her cake as she thought about the day, letting all other noise fade into the background. It had been her best birthday yet, full of amazing gifts, games, and heartfelt words.

This would be her last birthday before high school, wouldn't it? It's also the birthday that makes her a teenager now. Huh. Time flies by so fast..

...

..Through the static of her thoughts, though, a line stuck out to her. One line that she never thought about very much, it wasn't anything special, but...

"Oh, a sailor's life is the life for me"

Something in her memories clicked, and she quickly glanced at the front door. Nothing.

She knew birthday wishes never came true, but for once, she was actually bothered by the fact.

She wished, she wished, that they would walk through that door. That they would hug her, and tell her about their wonderful adventures, and that they would tell her that they've missed her and that they'll stay.

All she got that year was another postcard. They didn't even remember to sign it.

Alice sniffled, and turned back to the tv, trying to ignore the stare she got from Edward. Trying to ignore the way his expression softened. Thank god Elida didn't seem to notice her watery eyes.

She didn't need them anyways. She had Simon, and Isaac, and Elida, and Edward, and they were her family, and they actually cared about her.

Alice leaned back against the couch, taking another bite of her cake and pushing away her thoughts as she tuned back into the movie. At the end of the day, everything will be okay. She's sure of it.

”You can, if you want. If my memory serves, he likes soda. Also, if you don’t want to be here for this, I don’t mind.”

..Alright, I'll go.. Grab some drinks, uhm..

..Part of him wants to stay, and part of him wants to leave.

..You can just go ahead and start talking without me.

[silhouette-anon]

She nods, and turns to Artem.

“Should I…leave?-“

“Absolutely not, I’ve got too many questions for that.”

“….Ohhhhh boy, here we go.”

Should I.. Grab some drinks, or?..

[silhouette-anon]

”Don’t. The deal with him is that I don’t know what the deal with him is.”

Artem’s just been sitting there. Letting them be happy. He seems…kinda bittersweet, but tries to look as neutral as possible.

“It’s been over ten years. And based on what he said to me, I might be missing some context. I…never did let him say his piece.”

...

Simon gave Artem another unsure glance, and then sighed.

I guess the best thing to do would let him explain his side of the story, then...

[silhouette-anon]

Yelena returns his hug, beaming.

“OhmygoshIfeltlikeIwasDROWNING-“

Well, you're back to normal now!!! And you're okay!!!

..Oh yeah, what's the deal with him? Are you sure I shouldn't punch him?
