[ There comes a long-suffering sigh. ]
No, thank Cebulski. But I'm still suffering the effects of it, trying to get the red dye out of my costume!
[ But that's probably besides the point. ]
Look, I'm sorry about the stuff I said. My head wasn't screwed on right.

[This one had taken a little to find in her contact list. Apparently "Vira-Lorr" was talking to just about everyone. But, she'd found a reference in the scrapbook for the pink-clad blonde. There'd been a note of 'I think she's crazy, but she's nice and harmless.' Well, she'd put up with Reaper so it couldn't be that bad right?
Looking a little uncomfortable, but trying to smile, she sent a video message and waved.]
It's Gwen, right? Hi... sorry we haven't talked in a while. I've lost all of my memories, and I'm trying to go through them and remember the people I know.
At some point? This will be less awkward. Someday, I'm sure. Maybe I'll get my memories back first.

Hey, Vira-vee!
[ No one ever told Gwen not to give people cutesy nicknames. But as soon as Vira-Lorr keeps talking, Gwen frowns. ]
Wait... You're talking full-on amnesia? What happened, are you okay?

rip off Spidey?
[ At first she thinks he's talking about her little shopping trip with Peter, but no. He doesn't know about Peter.
Then it clicks. ]
you mean Miles?

Gwen, I need you do me a favor.
[A pause]
I need you to promise me, that if it's needed that you'll stop me.
Can you do this?
[Take this as The Doctor trusts you from the carnival event the other month]

Stop you?
[ Hold up, Doc... This is all very sudden and out of the blue. ]
What do you mean, stop you? What's going on?

[ Gwen looks at the text for a long time before she even thinks about replying. Like, a good couple of hours. But she's not gonna ghost him. She's scared of what will happen if she does... ]
you know that saying?
"i feel like death warmed over."
what they don't tell you is that it's 100% accurate.
i feel sicker than i've ever felt, and I was hospitalized with mono in 8th grade.
you fucking owe me.
i don't know what, but you do.

[ Maybe texting a lawyer when your username has the word "killa" in it isn't the best thing. But Gwen was never very smart. ]
omg Foggy Nelson in the flesh???
well... in the text
is this a srs offer?
i do not need a lawyer now but i 110% will need one in the future.

[ At first, Gwen's really pissed to see a message from Fern pop up, but as she reads it, things start to make sense and she calms down. ]
it's ok.
you're not the only one whose double texted me weird shit.
and Cebulski knows my double harassed other people enough.
i forgive you.

Did you take your shot the dogs brought?

[It's been a week and Ten can't push off facing Gwen forever. Especially knowing her shark!dog wants to go back. So, finally does click on his fluid to talk to Gwen with no idea what to say, he's not sure if she'll remember why she died or who he is outside of the Telly. Granted it's not much difference. But it is different to know someone over just knowing them through the Telly.]
Hi
Hi
[ Gwen, although she's sick as a dog, feels as chipper as ever. Sure, there are some things she's confused about, when she thinks back to the details of her death, but she's alive now! Isn't that the important thing? ]
Hey Doc! What's up?
Hey Doc! What's up?
[ On the morning of the 25th Gwen might wake up to find a box of decorated gingerbread cookies addressed to her with a hand-drawn Christmas Card made to look like a selfie of her and Steve. It merely reads "Merry Christmas" on the inside. ]
[You have been visited by Holy Mami!
She descends from the winter night sky, presents in hand. She has a smile on her face as she hands you a gift with a note attached.]
“These were made with love especially for you! Merry Christmas!”
[Before you have the chance to say anything though, she’s gone! She has a lot of gifts to deliver and little time to do so!]
Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!!
[ Gwen, however, was expecting Wade to break in, so when he does, just as he's leaving her presents, she flips the lights on and hands him a wrapped box with a very important spray bottle inside. ]
Busted.
Busted.
[ A box wrapped in pink wrapping paper with a white bow is left for her and inside are a batch of cupcakes and an ugly sweater. There’s a note with her name attached so she knows who to credit this glorious piece of clothing to later. [
pink shirt like the one he first saw her buy, because she likes pink
also a set of nail polish like this
also a set of nail polish like this
[In an attempt to enthusiastically celebrate his first ever Christmas, Fern is covertly dropping off two wrapped gifts addressed to Gwen from him on her doorstep.
The first, for Christmas, is a ballistic knife with a pink handle. The second, for her birthday, is an origami kit!]

Hi Gwen. Something happened on the ship that I can't forget about, but I don't really know if it's real anymore. I don't know what it means. You're my friend, and you know a lot of things. Can I talk to you about it sometime?
hey, Credence. you know you can talk to me about anything anytime.
what happened on the ship? does it have to do with you and Dumbledore thinking you were brothers?

Hey Gwen. I just wanted to check in and make sure you're okay.
[A pause.]
So uh... are you? Okay?
[A pause.]
So uh... are you? Okay?
[ A lot has happened to Gwen since she and Max last talked in Rapture. She dyed her hair black, turned into a katana, and then turned into a sphinx and told riddles for a while. ]
Max! Hey!
[ But by now she's all back to normal... except for the dyed hair. ]
Yeah. Yeah, I'm doing better. And I feel real bad about the way I treated you before. I'm so sorry I was such an asshole.

So, my address is 110 Princess Dr. I asked the caterer to save Jeff some hamburger meat if that's what he likes. See you soon!
you gotta understand, a compound crossbow is easier to use for a beginner, but it's a motherfucker if it breaks in a fight. a recursive is gonna get you a lot more mileage because they're tough as tanks once you're used to them
you have my attention.
talk crossbows to me, baby.

[After the last time they'd done this, Rei had made sure to not only check the forecast, but to plan something indoors. This was her birthday, and she did not want their second shot at a date being rained out. That would be just too damn much, and she won't accept it. So this time, she's arranged their date to be at the Yummy Garden Hot Pot, calling ahead to make sure that they have a table reserved and everything.
Also this time she won't forget to give Gwen the flowers she'd brought, she swears to herself as she knocks on her friend's front door at exactly 6:30. Not fashionably late, ever. And not too early, so she doesn't risk Gwen being unprepared. And for once she is not wearing red. White dresses are a birthday tradition for her, and a cheongsam feels appropriate given the location they're going to, her flirty mood, and the plethora of holidays that would be going on at home.]
Knock knock! Are you ready?
[When Gwen opens the door, not only does she get the sight of Rei, but she gets handed a bouquet of white lilies. Surprise.]

[When Gwen opens the door, not only does she get the sight of Rei, but she gets handed a bouquet of white lilies. Surprise.]
[ Knowing that today is Rei's birthday, and knowing that it's their second try at a first date, Gwen decides to put a little extra effort into her appearance. She straightens her hair, puts on a little makeup, and even picks out a nice dress and necklace. Add to it a classy black jacket, and the look is complete. She's just applying the last finishing touches of eyeliner as the knock comes at the door. The first thing Rei will hear is the scratching of Jeff's claws as he tries to barrel through the door to greet whoever's there. Finally, Gwen shoos him back and opens the door, surprised to see a bouquet of flowers being handed to her. ]
Oh! Wow! This is... [ She's struck a little dumb by just how incredible Rei looks, but soon enough she recovers her composure and takes the flowers. ] Thank you!
Hah, it's your birthday, but I'm the one getting flowers. Doesn't seem fair.

[Usagi stared a long time at her Fluid and sighed softly. But... just for her own sake, she was going to keep to text lest she lose her nerve... or worse, Gwen realize how much her comment stung.]
Hey, talked to Ruby and Varian, took care of any hurt feelings or over-stepped boundaries.

[ Gwen's at home when she gets a text from Usagi, cleaning up the mess she had made while she was six and playing with Jeff unsupervised.
It comes as a surprise, because she had come away from that conversation on Varian's birthday announcement post feeling a little awkward for calling Usagi out. She didn't regret doing it; it needed to be said. But she didn't expect Usagi to follow up on it. ]
oh. hey.
that's good. were they all chill about it?

[ Welp. Gwen's fears confirmed. ]

i'm glad you're back.
