[Katara has never had issue with the beds in Paradisa. They were warm, comfortable, but as snug and content as she is in the blankets, she can sense that there’s something maybe just a little off. There’s pressure against her arm and side - something is cuddling her.

Momo isn’t in Paradisa. So what in the world —

She shifts just a little, groggily opening her eyes and looking to the side.

Oh. It was Joshua.

Joshua was cuddling her. Of course.]

[Katara flings herself back, knocking her journal off of the bedside table — and this is where it begins transmitting. She screams.]

What are you doing in my room? What are you doing in my bed? [Her voice just gets shriller and shriller.] Out, out, out, out, out!

[ And while anyone listening might expect just as loud of a reaction (After all this is a rather commonplace scenario here, isn't it?) from whoever is invading the poor girl's bed, instead there's just a soft grunt of irritation. He's half-asleep and not placing the voice, but the shriek sure sounds familiar. He mutters groggily, ]

Huh, Langley...?

Joshua?!

[Another shuffling sound, and the sound abruptly stops as Katara scoops the journal off the floor.]

This isn't a whim of Aion's. He's hundreds of years old, and he's been planning this for some time. Everything is at stake, and before arriving here I recall we were merely moments away from the climax.

This is a fight for the demons, and for a new world. Something you wouldn't understand.

[she shakes her head, even if he can't really see her with the door and all] You're right. And... I don't think I'd really want to understand.

That's probably best. You're fine the way you are. We couldn't exactly convince Hendric to see it our way, either, even if she was cooperative.
