While Jedao and Gonou are both down

[When one of them eventually wakes up in Jedao's room, there's a memory stick on the table with a sticky note with a familiar chicken-scratch that just says:]

from ur fav comms officer
douggie ;)


[On the stick itself is a single audio file. What, he's old school.]

Hey guys. So, uh. I'm throwing this together same day Flint told the class Jedao got put in consciousness time-out. Gonou, you've been down since like, the twentieth or something, Jedao's been keeping an eye on you since. So that makes it, uhhh... a bit over two weeks now.

Soooo... yeah.

...

[There's a brief sigh, sort of self-deprecating.] I dunno why I'm recording this, to be honest. I guess 'cos it's nice to have a familiar voice when you wake up? I mean- you two have each other, obviously, but who knows if you'll be back at the same time, and I don't want one of you freaking out 'cos the other's still waiting on true love's kiss.

...I dunno. I just miss you guys. It's kinda scary, you know? Being on the outside of a coma. You dunno if they're gonna come back, or poof out of existence. I like you guys, you know? I don't want you to go.

[There's another pause, slightly more contemplative.]

...I really like you guys.

[His tone is a quiet revelation, followed by a

long

silence.

Wake up soon, alright? I've still got way too many movies to show you. 'cos if you don't I'm gonna have to kick your ass, and you know how bad I am at that.
