I'm leaving for a few days. I need to get out of h focus. I have final exams starting today and through next week.

If you need me, call.

I've put in a request for a substitute to cover my classes, but it was last minute. So. Apologies if it ends up falling to someone else.

[Emma]

Can I stay at yours or should I get a hotel? [...] I don't want to draw any undue attention to Christian.

[...] I [...] suppose we would have nothing to go back to. So. Potentially?

Manuel/Emma

Do you think Ambrose would let us stay, then? I wonder if he'd still try to be rid of us since we're 'anomalies.'

Manuel/Emma

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

It's hard to say. He's focused on setting things 'right', but if that option is removed and he has to make a judgment call, I don't know what he'll do.

[...]

You intend to try this?

Manuel/Emma

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

I suppose he said he was willing to let some people stay if there were too many of us, so there's a chance.

[...]

I'm not sure how practical it is, I'm just trying to think of any options we may have.

[.....]

Scott wants to go back.

[....]

I shouldn't be telling you this right now. Sorry, cariño.

Manuel/Emma

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

[......] You can't be serious. Why? What's he said?

You should. It's important.

Manuel/Emma

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

It is important, but you have enough other things to deal with right now. I've just had it bothering me for too long without an outlet. Sorry for the poor timing.

That version of him has a son.

Manuel/Emma

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

You don't need to apologize, mi corazón. You can always come to me.

[......]

So he feels responsible and is measuring his worth, I take it?

Manuel/Emma

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

But you need to

[...]

Thank you, darling.

Of course he is. Always willing to sacrifice himself.

So I'm trying to sort something out so that he doesn't do something stupid. [...] He still seems hesitant to believe that all this is exactly how Ambrose says, with our other selves being like Charles was, and I think that's keeping him the slightest bit more reasonable than he would be otherwise. But I don't think Ambrose is lying or mistaken, and Scott will come to that conclusion too I'm sure.

Manuel/Emma

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

I can't say I'm surprised.

It's good that he has doubts for now, then. [...] We'll find a solution or a way to make him understand. We have to.

[......]

If he doesn't come around, should we consider

Manuel/Emma

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

I'm not really either. I'm afraid it's still making me a little insane, though.

[...]

I hope know we will. He can't just leave us.

When you're back and in the headspace for it, we can brainstorm more ideas that are a little easier to execute than getting ourselves to an alternate universe to murder a comatose Scott.

Manuel/Emma

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

I would argue that he's a little insane and you're responding accordingly.

Of course. We'll figure this out. There has to be something we can do.

Manuel/Emma

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

He is a little insane. [...] I know it's rational, to be as ups bothered by this as I am, but I really don't like it. I can put it out of my mind when I'm distracted enough, but it always rears its ugly head again.

I'm certain there's something. I We just need to think on it. After your finals are done.

Manuel/Emma

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

I'm sorry, Em. It's not fair that he's putting you in this position. [...] If you ever need help with a distraction, I'm here. But I know a solution is the only real remedy to this.

[...] Vale. After my finals are done.

Manuel/Emma

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

He's miserable about the whole thing, so it's difficult for me to be too angry with him. I mean, I am. But less that I could be. And thank you. Once you're back I'll be bothering you quite a bit, I'm sure.
