There's not really much to discuss... It's nice to know that time doesn't pass back home while we're here and all, but that doesn't mean I don't still think about my family from time to time. And it is nicer here than it was in Tokyo - objectively, it's much better, actually, near-apocalypses aside. But Tokyo was familiar in ways that Verens isn't.

It's all things like that; again, nothing to worry about.

[The crystal is feeling a bit strange, though; nothing aggressively negative, but it's definitely gone muted in a way that his messages usually don't.]
