[Oh look, it's the loud boy from yesterday... only this time he's wearing a (slightly) embarrassed grin and waving at the video pickup.]

Hello! I'm Gon Freecss! It's nice to meet you!

[--and bowing, deeply, for a second before he bounces back to vertical.] I'm really sorry I yelled at everybody yesterday! [And really glad everybody but Killua just heard him over the phone, so he didn't hurt anyone, because that would have been really bad...]

I understand about this place now, so don't worry. But I wanted to ask if anybody could tell me more. About the animals here, or the Animus, or anything!

Thank you very much.

[BOW.

Oh boy he hopes that makes up for it. He doesn't even know who that girl was who sounded really scared.... quickly, he grins at the video pickup, and cuts the feed.]

What does that mean?

[Sorry, Juliet: elegant phrasing goes waaaay over his head.]

That they had gone to be with the Lord. They had died before they arrived to this place.

And they come back to life?

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

In this place? Yes, they are alive as they were at home before they had died.

[Thinking about that for a moment.]

How?

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

I know not, in truth. I only know it happens. There was a man here who was like to a brother to me. He was dead at home. He remembered dying, and then being here, in the city.

[At least Spike's story has a happier ending than her poor Tybalt's.]

That's... Isn't that a good thing, though?

That some people get to come back?

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

It is. It is a wonderful thing. Perhaps the best thing in the world.

[She smiles for a moment before her face falls.]

Until the Animus take them away again.

[They go back to the moment they left, and no one notices the difference...

That must mean that they die again. Gon swallows, thinking.]

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

It is not an easy truth to accept. It is made worse with the differences in time the Animus use.

That's one more reason to find out how to go home... right?

Because if we can control that, then the people who want to stay here still can.

[She manages a smile.]

Indeed, good sir. That would be most helpful. It would also be helpful to offer those who had been here a chance to return, should they wish it, or to bring those whom we love here with us. It will take people cleverer than I to determine that sort of thing, though.

I don't understand it yet, but I know we'll find a way!

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

I would be most glad if such a thing could be done.

[Nodding.]

Thanks for all the help, Juliet!

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

[She smiles in reply. Such a polite, earnest young man.]

You are most welcome, Gon. I am glad I could be of help to you.

[He nods again, and raises a hand to wave goodbye -- since it's video and all!]

Yeah. See you!
