[The camera shakes a little before getting held in place: Issei is sitting on his bed, with his knees drawn to his chest and the hand not holding the camera wrapped around them.]

Well. I'm back. I'm... I'm sorry for missing school again.

If anyone was wondering.

[He hangs his head for a moment.] Are they gone now?

...Everything's returned to normal.

Welcome back.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Thank you. That's good to hear.

[He sounds only a mite relieved.]

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

Are you alright?

[video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I don't have any injuries now.

[croibhristeoir]

That's not quite what I meant.

...They're gone.

[It's just a slight hint, but he's definitely relieved to hear Issei's back.]

[Audio]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

That's good.

[Audio]

[berry-paunch.livejournal.com]

Looks like people have forgotten, too.

[Audio]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Your friend is okay, too?

[Audio]

[berry-paunch.livejournal.com]

Mm. She's been busy with drama club things.

[He is especially happy about this. He wasn't sure she would be brought back, being a normal person and all.]

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

They are. And welcome back.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I-I appreciate hearing that.

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

Think nothing of it. Are you all right?

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Physically.

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

Then tell me what is wrong otherwise.

[genius-idiot.livejournal.com]

Issei! I heard that people were... Um. Are you okay?

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Mostly fine, I think. No visible injuries.

[genius-idiot.livejournal.com]

That still couldn't have been easy. I really don't get this fucking place.

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

I hate this place more than I can express.

[genius-idiot.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I used to think it wasn't too bad, considerin' where I was coming from. But I've changed my mind pretty damn quick after this last incident.

[Endou was so, so elated to hear Ryudo's voice on the network again that he fumbled with the phone a bit. He managed to turn it on, and then let it fall from his hands and land with a thump on the floor. But he quickly picked it up and faced it, with pure happiness and relief on his face.]

R-ryudo!! You're back...!!

[video]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Sorry to worry you. I assure you that it was unintentional.

[Aww.]

[video]

[protects-soccer.livejournal.com]

Where are you??

[He needed to see the other boy. To confirm he was really back, physically.]

[unknownrival.livejournal.com]

Hotel room. 707.

[Endou didn't reply, already dashing to the hotel to find Ryudo. A few minutes after Endou cut the feed, there was a quiet, almost shy knock on Ryudo's door.]
