Alex says:

I'm here ... delayed but here. And sober.

Dehan says:

have you been sober enough to watch the news?

Alex says:

God yes ... I heard just before I left for the pub ... we all sat around, completely devastated.

Dehan says:

*nods and goes back to something resembling silence*

Alex says:

*simply puts his arms around you* I'm sorry my E-mail was so mind-bogglingly trivial ... I only heard the news after it was sent and then it was too late to send anything else or do anything else other than learn more.

Alex says:

I have no words to say ... nobody does.

Alex says:

Love ... this silence I understand but speak to me, please.

Dehan says:

*sighs softly, curling up*

Alex says:

*holds you tightly, curling himself around you*

Dehan says:

The president is speaking on television right now. Our nation's largest and most powerful structures... rubble. And I, silly little mouse indeed, am sulking because a feline halfway across the world seems to see me as a last-minute amusement.

Dehan says:

I have a priority structure that is shaky at best.

Certified idiot. That's me.
