[Lilith looks exhausted. There's blood on her clothing and her hair is falling freely.] There was an incident tonight. [A long pause. She's thought about how to phrase this but, now that she must... it's understandably difficult.]

Cross was shot by a being from his world while visiting here. I will be caring for him until he makes a full recovery in the Vatican. I do not know how long it will take but, rest assured I will not stop. He will get better. 

[She's shutting off the feed. That's enough from her.]

While he was here? Is he going to bring danger to the Vatican?

[locked]

[lovethisworld]

Azula... he's barely alive. He cannot trouble anyone. [Though her assessment is correct.]

I will deal with it should they return.

[locked]

[embersandashes]

I didn't mean him specifically. He's horrible, but usually not destructive.

I'm just worried about his enemies following him, that's all.

[locked]

[lovethisworld]

It seems they have since the encounter took place here.

[locked]

[embersandashes]

Exactly; I meant that they could come again.

[locked]

[lovethisworld]

I know, dear. I will handle it should it happen.

[embersandashes]

You're going to make me worry about you, aren't you.

[there is a moment of minatsuki sitting there frozen in shock and sheer horror.]

[and then she scrambles to her feet and slams her hands down on the table.]

What the fuck did you just say?! HE WAS WHAT?!

[lovethisworld]

Shot. [Minatsuki.... her heart is breaking this girl.] I will do what I can to ensure he makes a full recovery.

[jailbirds]

A full recovery?! What do you— What the hell do you mean by that? How badly was he hurt?!

[lovethisworld]

He was shot at close range to the face. I believe the mask to a great deal of the impact which is how he survived.

[A few seconds pass.] Cross will not be waking up from his injuries for some time.

[jailbirds]

[for a long, long time she just stands there and doesn't move, breathes shallowly, doesn't say a word. her legs finally give out and she sinks down into her chair.]

... You're not kidding. Is he even going to live?

[aburningspirit]

Cross?

[lovethisworld]

Yes?

[aburningspirit]

He is gonna get better, right?

[lovethisworld]

I believe there's a good chance of that. For now I can promise he will live.

[aburningspirit]

But he won't be awake.

...you know how long?

[lovethisworld]

It's hard to tell at the moment.

[yacantdoitkid]

What the fuck?!

[lovethisworld]

Was something unclear?

[yacantdoitkid]

He's fine! He was here like ten fuckin' minutes ago!

[lovethisworld]

[It's hard to tell whether he's simply in denial or that's how time moved on his world. She doesn't know what to say that won't sound like a challenge so she just won't say anything.]

[yacantdoitkid]

Are you fuckin' listenin'? He's fine!

[lovethisworld]

I heard you. Could you please try contacting him now?
