video - no melody will soothe this outrage

[digophelia]

[ Here is Alice. Here is Alice trying to tune her lute and after a few strokes, Alice manages to remember a melody. ]

Ah, it surprises me, even now, I remember how to play it. It's been a few months.

[ It does sound a bit better after she's tuned it a few times. Maybe it was that out of tune? ]

And how the piano lessons I had as little girl have never really faded away. String or piano, music notes and scales are hard to forget. It's odd to think how much I used to loathe piano lessons as a little girl.

[ That's fine. Alice treasures them more as an adult, now. Especially this lute. ]

I recall some faces here in Osaka, but others... not so much. I do hope some of you have stayed out of some trouble, yes? I'm certain that some of you are already dreading the inevitable fussing from me.

Tell me, then, if you remember me... what did I miss?

[ That's her strange way of saying she misses some of you. ]

[ There's a face that makes her smile. ]

Why, yes, I am. Hello, Papyrus.

[boneafide]

I missed you!! And I was worried you fell asleep somewhere and I forgot to wake you up or something!!

How are you!

[digophelia]

Oh, you don't have to worry about waking me up, Papyrus. It was out of our hands, I suppose.

I am well, I am happy to be back here, with my friends.

[boneafide]

You must have made a lot of other friends on the other missions you went on, right??

[digophelia]

I wish that were the case. It would be much more bearable than returning to London.

[boneafide]

Oh, you went... to London again?

[ he knows she SUPER HATE IT there ]

[digophelia]

Unfortunately. Almost right where I left off.

[ THE WORST. ]

Though, it wasn't too bad, I suppose. I was able to clean up the mess that was left there, in a matter of speaking.

[boneafide]

... Well, at least you won't have to go back there again any time soon!! Right! ... Right?

Don't leave again.

[digophelia]

I would hope not! I don't ever want to leave again.

[boneafide]

Good!! You belong here, above anywhere else!!
