Guardian Entry 114: This Isn't Like On TV Or In The Comic Books...! (Audio, Locked from Hostiles)

[theguardianofair]

Hay Lin...? While I'm glad that you aren't out doing something completely insane, you really should get inside. You're liable to catch a cold the longer you stay out!

It's b-better to catch a cold than...than what happened in Neon, Threepio! (sniffles)

I know you come up here to think about a lot of things, but you can't let that one incident shatter your resolve! Y-You've got to do your best to move on and...!

WHAT IF THAT HAD BEEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS?!! I didn't know her that well, but we were close...and now she's gone! She'll never get to return to her world, never get to see him again...and now we're on lockdown!

This is exactly why you have as many friends as you do, Hay Lin...because you care about everyone, not just yourself or those close to you...! You need time to mourn first before moving on, and I'm sorry I didn't see it right away.

It's okay, Threepio. Sorry for y-yelling at you...! (sniffles)

H-Hay Lin-neesan...

Sasami-imouto...

Are you okay?

[heart-of-jurai.livejournal.com]

I'm... I'm fine, I...

This is just so wrong! Even after all we've been through, this--!

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

I know...!

It feels like everything we went through was just...a test to prepare us for this...!

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Hay Lin, calm down. It will do you no good to get upset like this.

I know it's hard to deal with, but I'm here and the rest of your friends are here. If they come to Tetha, they're getting a DATS smackdown.

...Would you be saying this if it had been one of your friends or family members who had died, Hoshi?

She deserves some kind of memorial service, doesn't she?

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

As cruel as this may sound, a man once said that in order for the cycle of life to continue, death needs to happen. If someone dies, then their soul is reincarnated and put into something else. Mary Jane Watson did good things in her life, so it's only necessary that she'll be reincarnated somewhere else as a higher power than she was originally.

Yes, she does. I can bless it, Hay Lin.

Hay Lin...

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

Ashley...!

Why did that have to happen to her? She was just as giving and caring as anyone else...!

[terra-who.livejournal.com]

I know. It's not fair - it's never fair. I...

I don't know.

[changelingdude.livejournal.com]

...I'm gonna get together with the rest of the Theater Troupe and see if we can't organize a service.

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

...Talk with Hoshi too, BB. She wants to be a part of it, okay?

[changelingdude.livejournal.com]

I will.

Hay Lin...take care of yourself.

I know that you're sad and angry, Hay Lin. I just didn't think that someone here, especially from the Dragon/Inn could die. I didn't know her but she deserved better. It hurts, I know. If there's anything I can do to help you, let me know.

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

...I will, Jimmy. Thanks.

[golden-hero.livejournal.com]

No problem, Hay Lin.

And Hay Lin? Look after yourself.

[hero-time.livejournal.com]

I know. It's always hard, and it always will be. But that's why we can't just give up. There's too much at stake, and in any case, we owe it to her in a way.

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

...I wouldn't think about just giving up Ben, but if it happened to her it could...it could happen to anyone of us!

[hero-time.livejournal.com]

I know. I've been there, and even once is too often.

But that's why we have our friends. We watch each other's backs, and we help each other. And we won't let this happen to each other.

[green-chosen.livejournal.com]

...!

Hay Lin. It won't happen again. We'll find the people responsible.

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

...

Be careful out there, okay Tatum?

[green-chosen.livejournal.com]

I will.

Keep yourself safe.

[kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com]

Hay-Lin...

[guardian-haylin.livejournal.com]

Will...!

[kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com]

I... we should've...
