Miles To Go, Before You're Done Apologizing
After sufficiently bracing herself for any potential reactions she can foresee, Vincent heads home, avoiding Valeria, as she still doesn't know what to say to her. As usual, he bypasses the lobby in favor of the rooftop access, heading down to the common area. He winces as he walks past Andrea's room, still next to his own. He wonders how long that will last.

She settles into her room, freshening some of the bandages she'd already been fitted with, due to her combat with Halbjorn.

She knows he doesn't need to call Kristoff. Even as hurt as he must still be, her brother's presence is something she can always exp---

No.

No more assumptions. No more of taking him for granted. Not when she can at least stop to think that much. Vincent abruptly finishes the changes quickly, and heads to the intercom.

"Kristoff... I'm home." She swallows, nervous. "Something has happened."

"You weren't. We needed you. It didn't matter that you didn't have that 'spark', we just needed you there."

A pause.

"And you weren't there. 'Sorry' is not going to wipe away the fact that you weren't there</b." She was angry now. There was no hiding it. "And things have never been 'simple' for Franklin and I. You're making yourself seem like some sort of martyr. That you made some Great Big Sacrifice by leaving us. And while it may seem that way to you- you abandoned us. That's all it really was." Valeria turned to leave. "I have nothing else to say to you. Other than you should have thought it over more carefully. It'll be a long time before you can 'make up' for this. And changing genders isn't going to help it move along any faster."

"The particular change in physical composition is inconsequential. Right now I'd tolerate being turned into a frog until I figured how to change myself back on my own." She's growing somewhat frustrated herself, but she's trying not to let it show.

"I know that 'sorry' doesn't fix it, I'm just trying to make it understood why I did what I did; and I don't mean to imply that things are simple in entirety for you and Franklin. I mean that you've always know who you are. My whole life I had no real connection to where I came from, and this was the first and probably last chance I would ever get. I still came back because even with that, I couldn't imagine my life without all of you."

She winces as Valeria heads away.

"Valeria... you're the closest thing I have in this or any world to a sister. You've known me since I was eight years old. I don't want to lose you because of this."

"Then you really should have thought that through before you decided to turn your back on your family." Valeria turned her head over her shoulder before she left the room. "Nice to see that you aren't dead, though."

"I have to go. I need to see how my brother is doing."

And she was gone.

"Give him my best, if he's awake..." Vincent calls after her, not knowing what else to say.

After she's sure Valeria is gone, she goes about reapplying the salve to her injuries. She has work to do, and she needs to be healed first.
