[ It's a strange feeling to be sleeping for so long, especially in the Dream Docks. A small grunt is heard from a young woman while her eyes slide open and she yawns, slowly sitting up while glancing around. For a moment, she wonders if she fell asleep somewhere and didn't realize it up until now. If so, she really has to stop doing that. Solaris glances over, rubbing the sleep away from her eyes while stifling another yawn.

Hey, wait a sec, was that...?

Carefully, the elemental gets up to her feet while making her way over to the other sleeping girl's form. Her hand rests on her shoulder while she lightly shook her, trying to get her up. ]

Tori. Hey... Hey, Tori. Wake up. It's me, Lumiere.

[Tori's eyes slowly open, staring up at Lumiere. How long has she been out? She has no idea. ...shit, she really has no idea. Is Jeb still here?! Is he worried? What about Zelos? Maybe things will always be awkward with that guy, but as far as she's concerned, they're still friends--]

Why...?

[ A sigh of relief passes Lumiere's lips and a smile soon overtakes her features while she relaxes slightly. It was so good to see that she was okay, albeit just as disoriented as she was right now. ]

Sorry, I just... I just wanted to make sure you were okay, Tori. I'm glad you are. Um, I just woke up not too long ago myself, so...

[Tori allows herself to sit up a little, shaking her head slightly. She's thankful that, at the very least, she hasn't woken up alone. ...and that the person by her side is pleasant company.]

Yeah, I'm fine... I think.

[ Lumiere smiles a little at her, nodding while leaning against the pod that she was formerly in. Why is it that she wasn't so tired like she normally was? Did all of the sleep she get help out more than anything? More than likely. ]

That's good... Hey, you know what? I don't feel so tired like I normally do. It's weird.

[Tori manages to shoot a grin at her.]

Isn't that good thing?

Yeah! Maybe I'm finally healing after so long.

[ Solaris grins wide, rather excited for this. It's been so long since she's been able to wake up and stay awake. ]

Here. It's pretty cold.

[ She takes off her sweater, handing it over to her. ]

[Tori takes it.] Heh, thanks. [She puts it on, sighing and looking out in front of her.]

[ A nod and the elemental grins wide. ] We should probably head back for the apartment, huh? Jeb's got to be worried sick about us.

[Tori nods back.]

Right. I don't want him to worry any more than he has to, after all~

[ Feel free to run in the two of them while they make it back to their apartment! ]

[Zelos had been spending most of the last month hiding away in his bed - or crashing in the small room above the cafe he worked in when Fai let him - when he wasn't working, due to the month-long abundance of snow. To say that he hated this weather was an understatement.

This particular day, he found himself rushing out of work and on his way home. If nothing else, he needed to eat something that wasn't cake eventually. Shivering, he wrapped his winter coat tight around himself. The sooner this trip was out the way, the better--

He did a double-take when he noticed the two girls. He didn't recognise one of them, but the other...was that Tori? She was still here?]

...Hey, hunny.

[When Tori spots Zelos, she actually feels relieved. Looks like hoping didn't bite her in the ass for once, that's good. Of course, how Tori expresses her relief to Zelos is rather standing for, well, her: she gives him a shit eating grin, followed by some teasing.]

Hey, hey! You know my name. Am I going to have to start calling you by a pet name, Zelos?

[This is clearly Tori speak for "I'm very happy to see you."]

[ Lumiere hasn't met Zelos before, however she's glad to see that there's familiarity between the two of them. In turn, she grins wide, chuckling slightly. ]

Ooh, does someone have a boyfriend~?

[ Clearly, she's in the teasing mood herself. ]

Why, are you offering, Tori-hunny? I'd love to hear what kind of cute petnames you'd come up with.

[Zelos just grinned right back. Awkward as it was between them, he was glad to see her. He didn't like the idea she'd vanished.

When Lumiere spoke up, Zelos slipped his arm around her shoulders.]

What's wrong, are you jealous? Don't worry, there's plenty of me to go around. The name's Zelos, Zelos Wilder. What's yours, lovely?

[Tori eyes Lumiere, as if not believing she actually said that. Come on, really?]

You know damn well he's not my boyfriend! [Then Zelos responds and puts an arm around Lumiere. Tori can't help but snort a little.] Hey, now~ that's pretty shameless of you, Zel-Zel.

[She's teasing a little, herself.]

[Yukiko had been running around, trying her best to be able to gather things for an upcoming New Year. Someone had booked it so she knew she was going to be busy, so she had been busy making sure she had everything needed for such a thing. So with a good number of bags in hand she was walking through the snow, her winter attire helping her keep warm during the time.

As she was turning the corner and getting closer she was quick to notice people who seemed to have come from the Dream Docks. That was something she understood at least.]

Did you just come from the Dream Docks?

[Tori pulls a bit of stray hair over her shoulder, shivering a little. Even with Lumiere's sweater, it's still pretty damn cold.]

Sure did! Looks like me and my friend here were out for quite a while, too. Haha~

[ Frankly, it was rather cold and Lumiere finds herself wishing that Satania was here to warm things up for them. However, for now, she was rubbing at her arms slightly so as to warm up further. ]

It was warm the last time I was up. But, yeah, we did!

I guess since you've been out a while... We should get you some warmer clothes... Unless where you were heading was close by?

[Which would seem perfectly fine, but if now she figured she might as well ask first with a small smile and bags still firmly in her hand.]

As embarrassing as it is... I'm not really sure. Since I've been here so long, I really should know if we're close to where we need to be, you know?

[She's still a little out of it due to being unconscious for so long, though.]

[Nagisa had never seen either of them before, but the way they seem to be talking seem to suggest the fact that they are use to this place. So he didn't need to welcome them anyway.]

So... Have you been gone long?

[She can't help but smile. This kid seems pretty cute and friendly, and that's a good way to put her at ease.]

It sure feels like we've been, you know? Not sure how long, though... [She looks over at Solaris.] Hey, what do you think?

[ The elemental thinks it over, humming slightly in thought. It takes her a bit to recall just how long she's been out for. ]

Uh... Yeah. Like, I remember it wasn't as cold as it is now.

[ Algis would be at home here, that's for sure. ]

Well if it helps it's December now, so if it was warmer before you probably went in the autumn time or something.

[Did that really help though as he thought about it a bit.]

It's also been snowing the whole month...so you should considering covering up.

December?! Jeez...

[She sighs deeply.]

Yeah, it really does sound like we need warmer clothes now. Lumiere was nice enough to lend me her sweater, but... [She shakes her head.] It'll be fine once we get home. I have enough warm clothes there, you know? They're even cute~!

Tori! Lumiere...!

[Sorry, Lumiere. The moment Tori sees Jeb and hears his voice, she's running over to hug him.]

Jeb!
