"I thought you were avoiding Peter? Me being dead sure has made you indecisive, Hope."
*I think about it for a minute.*
"Fine, we can go then I suppose. But only because it's cold and I don't want you to have to stand out here because of me."
*Gosh I'm noble.*

"I was happy avoiding him, but you were the one who called me irresponsible and seemed bored waiting with me here in Moscow. I decided to leave because it was the responsible thing to do and because you seemed bored just sitting around."
I turn.
"Good, let's go then."
I teleport us both back to Lapland, but as expected he is not there.
"Now, he isn't even here, but look at this place. I think it is a charming place to train."

"That is an awefully kind distance to go for the sake of my entertainment."
*I look around with great interest.*
"You sure you didn't want to come back here so suddenly because you knew Peter was close to finding us and you assumed this would be the place farthest from him at the moment."
*I say in that tone that you use when you've just found some one while playing hide and go seek.*

"Oh hardly. Look, there is the farm house. We can go inside and warm up."
I start walking towards it.
"Peter will be a little surprised to see that you are alive. But it is good that you are back. Even if you are a little on the irritable side..."

*I am not irritable I am pointing out flaws. I have not done so in months and missed it terribly. I do not say so though, more important things to be discussed.*
"So Peter is now traveling with us and such? He did not seem the group-rebel type."

"He quit LIF and has started training to overthrow Red Infinity. I have been training with him, and some others were training with him as well."
I enter the farm house and sit by the fireplace.
"I just thought you would be happy to be alive!! Well, you don't have to be but I thought you would be more gushy like... oh, Hope, it is a wonderful life!"

*I sit down next to her, I always liked sitting by the fireplace, it's very nice.*
"I am happy to be back. I missed you and the remotey areas you insist upon us going to to. But I am never Gushy, and don't bring up a time when I was I don't feel like denying it right now."
*I smile and put my hands closer to the fire so they can get warmed up.*

"I did all sorts of interesting things while you were gone, but I really missed you. I went and saw your mother and gave your brother a cupcake. The sugar made him grow up suddenly!"
I remain unthwarted by his ungushyness.
"I also went to your father's castle with Peter and this girl named Linda who has a flying bull named Moomoo."

"Wow...you see my family way more than I do."
*I try very hard to come up with something to share about the last few weeks.*
"Well, I saw a couple of people I havn't seen in a while, but they wern't in a talky type of mood as you can understand so that wasn't much fun. And there is no reading material whatsoever to look at when your dead, which if you ask me was my real motivation for coming back, it also sort of explains my book question back at the hotel."

"LIF also contacted me about getting some upgrade...that makes me more...biological...but since I find it all a little strange I think I will decline."
I turn to the fire and warm my hands as well.
"No books, that's too bad. Your father has a large library. Peter and I were looking through the books to find out information on Satsujin, who has been fighting all of the gods ever since you died."

"We have no intention of leaving Grove. So, where would you like to fight. We can go somewhere else...you and I, if you are worried about this precious forest."

"Did you sneak into the castle? My father does not seem the welcoming type. Esspecially since he is very pro-Ukko from what I can tell and Ukko is probably very into Satsujin fighting all the gods."
*Everything happens when I'm gone, absolutely everything.*

"Oh hey, you must be Sasha Kropotkin. I am new to the anarchist movement. My name is Nova Kollontai. Zinn told me a little about you."
I get up to shake the man's hand. He seems nice enough, but a little distracted.

"No one was home when we were there, so I suppose it was trespassing, though we didn't steal or break anything."
As if somehow that makes our intrusion better.
"Yes, a lot happened while you were away."

Grove raises one eyebrow while he lowers the other in confusion.
"You and I? I don't like the sound of that, and what with torch boy over there" he says motioning to Damien, "I would rather fight here in the open where the forest would be less likely to be harmed."
His grip tightens on his weapon.
"I do not understand why... If you are a spirit of the earth in some way why choose to side against dedicated preservers of what you too are trying to protect?"
