For anyone who knew her, Gandra Dee is no longer present in this world.

[ The short message is all Fenton can manage right now, because this one is especially tough for him. ]

[ It's not really a surprise when there's a knock-knock on his door - However, Della doesn't just barge on in as usual. Her voice is gentle, understanding. ]

... Hey.

... Made brownies.

[ They're not great, but still, an effort for blues. ]

[doctorintern]

[ Fenton doesn't answer at first, because he's not entirely hungry. But he also recognizes and appreciates Della's attempt, so eventually he drags himself out of bed and slowly opens the door. ]

...Thanks. I'll, uh...be out in a second.

[sos_pilot]

Take your time. No rush.

[ Pause, and then an attempt at a small laugh - ]

The brownies are actually brown this time, so, huge accomplishment.

[doctorintern]

[ Despite himself, that did get the desired result of a laugh from him. ]

Well, I don't smell smoke, so that's also a good sign.

Just give me a moment and I'll meet you in the kitchen.

[ Even if it hasn't been all that long since finding out, he still feels the need to clean himself up a bit. ]

I didn't know her but I'm so sorry, it's always so hard whenever anyone you know leaves here.

Do you need anything?

[doctorintern]

No, I don't think so. Just a little time, I guess.

Oh but you had posted something about a play date for dogs? My dog, Atom, could probably use some company.

[ Especially since he isn't much of good company right now. ]

[lovesopendoors]

Take all the time you need and remember to eat but also remember you're not alone.

I did post that, yes! And we three or four (my sister included) would absolutely love to give some playful company to Atom.

[doctorintern]

Thank you. I'll definitely keep that in mind.

I'd really appreciate it. Atom can be a bit energetic, so it would help letting him play to tire him out a bit.

Oh my. Fenton, I am really sorry that she has left this world so soon. I haven’t gotten to meet her before, but oh gee, it always gets sad when someone close to you in this world leaves.

Is she a friend of yours?

[doctorintern]

Thank you. And it does seem to be more difficult when some people leave than others.

Gandra is actually my girlfriend.

[phoenixwiz]

Yeah it definitely does get even difficult to see many disappearance. I tried to contact a friend some time ago but I think that he might have left this world as well.

Oh, so you two were dating even before she vanished from Avalon. How long were you two been together even before Avalon and her disappearance?

[doctorintern]

It does seem like a lot of people have been disappearing lately.

Well it's a bit complicated. Gandra was actually from my future, and I guess we had been dating for a while at the point of time she's from. But I haven't experienced those same events yet.

But here in Avalon, we had been dating since mid-November I believe.

[peninhand]

I'm so sorry Fenton. I'd spoken to her once and she sounded very nice. Were the two of you close?

[doctorintern]

You could say that. She's my girlfriend, both here and even when we were back home.

[peninhand]

Oh gosh. I can't imagine how it'd feel if my girlfriend vanished...

I'm here if you need someone to talk to, okay?

[doctorintern]

I appreciate that, thank you.

I guess I am glad that she's likely gone home. And I'll just have to work harder to make sure our worlds remain safe so I can see her again whenever I go back.

[ He's trying so hard to stay positive, but this...this is a tough one for him. ]

[cultivatingsin]

Wait. Are you Fenton?

Sorry for your loss.

[doctorintern]

Thank you.

I am. Were you a friend of Gandra's?

[cultivatingsin]

I actually met Della. She told me about you.

Is Gandra going back to a good world, at least?

[doctorintern]

Ah okay. Yes Della is a friend of mine too.

I'd say so. It can be a bit dangerous sometimes, but for the most part it's a good place with lots of adventure. And Gandra is very intelligent and clever, so she'd be all right no matter what.

[reincarnatedprince]

I'm sorry, Fenton.

Do you want to come over with Atom this weekend? I talked with Usagi and she'd be free.

[doctorintern]

Sure, that sounds fine. A distraction might be god right now.

[tsumtsuki]

I'm really sorry, Fenton-san. [ First Aerith, and now this Gandra... these messages of disappearance and loss are never easy. ]

It's not much, and I understand if you'd rather be alone right now, but if you need it, I'll treat you to coffee again. Moondrop's doors are open for you.

[doctorintern]

[ This one is especially difficult, though he won't say that right now. ]

Ah, Tsumugi, thank you. I hate to impose on you, but honestly, I wouldn't mind a cup of coffee.

[tsumtsuki]

You're not imposing on me! I'm the one who offered.

[ There's a small delay, then: ] And I know we haven't known each other for long, but if you need to talk, I'd be happy to listen.
