That's alright. I don't want to push you. And I think we understand what most of you have been trying to tell us.

[ she's quiet for a moment. and she nods. ]

... How are things at the house? Has anything changed?

...It's been more quiet without you.

[well. kate was always quiet. but it's definitely sadder without her.]

But we're all trying to get through and see things through until the end.

[sootprints]

I know you are. I have faith that you'll all do the best that you can.

Even if you can't tell us details, can you tell me how it's been since you've been there?

[she assumes everyone will be nice to kate, she doesn't think there were hard feelings based on the letters, but even so.]

Has it been nice to see everyone again?

[sootprints]

Yes. I got to spend time with Rondo, and Iwatooshi, and Karma, and...

A lot of people came to see me right away. It was a little overwhelming, but in a good way.

They can all be a bit pushy, can't they!

[the ten thousand letters.]

But of course they care for you.
