[Private to Erik]
I've been in a coma for about four days.
I…I'm aware it could have been much longer, given how long it's been since we last talked.
I hope you're alright.

[The walk from the door of her cabin to the door of the engine room is very short, but lately she's started to feel terribly agoraphobic on the walk between those rooms, as if the world might suddenly open up completely and leave her stranded in a huge, inescapable void.
If that's unpleasant then the walk up to the library is a nightmare, but her insomnia isn't going away and God knows she needs something to fill the hours. Still, she walks the programming and linguistics sections in a bit of a daze, eyeing the shelves and reading spines without taking much in.]

Date: 2013-02-11 10:51 am (UTC)You might want to consider using the CTS as a testing ground, if it gets that far. It seems to be the closest thing we have to a completely sealed environment.

Date: 2013-02-11 08:14 pm (UTC)Private enough that a four day absence wasn't noted. [He's private to, but he still does that whole interacting thing.]

Date: 2013-02-12 01:27 am (UTC)Megamind told you.

Date: 2013-02-12 02:48 am (UTC)I'm alright. Getting over a cold, but otherwise I can't complain. How about you?

Date: 2013-02-12 05:05 am (UTC)Hm. That's not a bad idea. I'm no where near testing phase yet, but when I am I plan to take all reasonable precautions possible. Failed time experiments can so get very messy. [His last failure resulted in an inhabited planet aging to death. He doesn't want to do that again.]
[Voice, private, the next day]
Date: 2013-02-12 05:18 am (UTC)Hey yo, listen, Toshiko, um... your ex told me what was up. I just wanna say, if you ever wanna talk to someone... you know. Door's open and everything.

Date: 2013-02-12 03:49 pm (UTC)I'm amazed anyone's even able to get colds here. Then again, God knows what the microbial makeup of the CES is like.

Date: 2013-02-12 03:53 pm (UTC)Still, if all else fails you could blame it on the Admiral, he seems to be above that sort of thing anyway.
[Rather gallows humour but she wouldn't think for a second it's not all true.]
[Voice, private]
Date: 2013-02-12 03:54 pm (UTC)I'm not gonna tell you you've gotta quit, or just do this, or that, or whatever. That's just stupid. I don't even know dick about morphine, like, God knows why it even got brought up with me, so there's that.
And also I get it, why you did what you did -- why you cut him off.
So yeah, if you ever just want to... whatever. You can. That's all. [And now he will hang up, if she has nothing else to say.]

Date: 2013-02-12 06:40 pm (UTC)[An addict, I can quit any time I want? Yeah, that explains why you were 80% detoxed during the tininess flood and then immediately started using again.]
I'm functional. Which is honestly more than I can say of a lot of Wardens who've passed through.

Date: 2013-02-12 06:46 pm (UTC)Who else knows? [Which is, in a way, asking if she's gotten help. If you squint and transpose some words.]
[Voice, private]
Date: 2013-02-12 07:01 pm (UTC)[But it's a different kind of 'thank you', not perfunctory but 'thank you for understanding'.]
[Private]
Date: 2013-02-12 07:04 pm (UTC)Megamind, obviously. Agent Kay. Jesse Pinkman. [This is a guess at this point.]

Date: 2013-02-12 07:10 pm (UTC)You'll be stopping, then.
