[He'd meant to do this yesterday, but the Lorax arriving had thrown him off. Still, the forest guardian had done him some good. It meant he had to try to piece himself together again, or at least start to. But there was something more important to attend to now. After losing Zelos and House (the memory of watching the latter die engraved on his brain and refusing to leave) he needs to know...]

Okay guys, if you could tell me if you got out of that mess now would be a really great time. Don't make me come looking for you, because I'm pretty sure someone in here will drag me back to bed before I can pathetically shuffle as far as the door. We'd be at it all day.

Just...check in.

[He didn't want to make this filter. He'd rather her not know where he is. Perhaps, even, he has the smallest hope her visit in the castle was brief. Enough to shake him up before she went home again. One last wonderful stab in the chest to remember her by.

...But she's still his mother. And he still needs to know if she's okay]

I asked after you. Where were you? Are you still here?

I don't know, man. Maybe the castle controlled the ship as well. It's all powerful and everything.

[tapshoetomove]

Yeah, that could be it too. I really don't know. I think space is ruined for me though.

[whichwayyoulean]

I'm pretty sure space ruined is ruined for everyone at this point.

[tapshoetomove]

I hope the castle doesn't ruin everything else. I still like beaches. And sweets.

What if the castle ruined sweets?

[whichwayyoulean]

I'm pretty sure it's not going to ruin sweets. And if it tries? Well, we're just going to have to not let it.

[tapshoetomove]

...Yeah! There's no way the castle could ruin sweets. Not ever!

[Don't tempt fate child]

Sure it can't.
