Return

[x_empath]

Good morning or evening, depending on when you read this.

I am Manuel de la Rocha (as some of you know) and yes, I do live and have returned. Please, for those who know me, spare me your animosity. I am here to _recover_. Not to fight. For those who don't know me, the invitation is there should you desire a meeting. Please give me some advance notice before you 'drop in'. Thank you.

-Manuel

You seem awfully fast to judge how people are going to react to you Mr de la Rocha. Maybe try being a little more positive?

I'm Laurie Collins by the way, one of the students here. I hope your recovery will go well for you. We may see each other if you're going to be visiting the Medlab at all while you're here, I volunteer down there.

Laurie, this would be one of those times you need to do some backreading on the journals before you say anything, okay?

You can go to hell. I have that godamn "Keep it positive!" song stuck in my head now.


Manny - Good to see you on your feet, by the way. Unless you're missing feet, or a foot, in which case on your whatevers. Pods. Stumps. God, I hope you're not missing feet, because I'm gonna look pretty stupid cracking this joke.

It's never a good sign when you mention animosity immediately after addressing everyone who already knows you. It pays to be a recluse and I'm using this as my proof.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

It's impossible to be a recluse in my position. Especially here. Someone is bound to seek you out eventually.

Welcome back to the land of the living.

And yeah, I do mean that.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

I knew you were alive; conscious, however, is news to me. Welcome back.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Being conscious was news to me too, six months ago. You're not far behind.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Well well well.

Apparently we need bigger trucks.

[x-wallflower-.livejournal.com]

Forge! What sort of reply is that? And you call yourself an adult.

[x-plosive.livejournal.com]

Hello. I hope things go better this time.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I do as well.

[x-sanfuaiyaa.livejournal.com]

What is this, the week of resurrection?

[xp_daytripper]

And then some.

It's good you're awake, Manuel.

[x-cloudy.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you are feeling better, Manuel. It's been a really long time. :)

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Not long enough, according to some, however thank you.

[x-penance.livejournal.com]

Hello, my name is Yvette, and it is good to meet you.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is mutual. Thank you.

[x-bevatron.livejournal.com]

Mon dieu. Manuel de la Rocha. The Manuel de la Rocha, here?

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is I. And who are you?

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

Well. I'm . . . glad to see you're well.

It's just a bit sudden.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

We'll have to discuss that later. It is good to see you.

[x-roulette.livejournal.com]

Hey. I-- um.

Hey.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

I don't have to be an empath to know.

[x-bishop.livejournal.com]

I'm Bishop. Since I hear you've been out of the game for a while, I used to be a detective around here. If you have anything you might need an update on I can throw a few freebies your way on my off time to help you readjust. I know how coming back can be. Welcome back.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

I'll spare you a horrible Chess joke and move right along into gratitude for the offer you just made.

[x-celsis.livejournal.com]

I have missed you, Manuel. Perhaps I shall continue to do so - I don't think either of us are quite the same person we used to be. But I am here, if ever you need me.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Maybe dinner is in order. I tired of Muir food long ago and I'm craving something more... exotic?

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

Come see me if you want, but no funny stuff.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

I promise.

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

what's that phrase? only the good die young?

welcome back to the land of the living, I think.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

Charming. A backhanded way of saying welcome back.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Welcome back, Manuel. I apologize for not replying earlier - I admit I was a bit thrown.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

As was everyone Jean. I do believe we are suppose to be having a meeting sometime. Whenever you're available. I require your assistance.

[x-m.livejournal.com]

Well fuck me dead and bury me pregnant. I never thought I'd see you back here, all things considered.

Glad to see you're still not in your coma, but.

[x-empath.livejournal.com]

That's a very hideous visual you've given me.
