[About the same time Arcee pops on the scroll, the sound of a train can be heard in the background just leaving the station. It's not her train judging by how she's standing outside, but a part of her wishes it was. If you can't guess where she is, she probably wants nothing to do with you.]

I'm leaving.

[That's all she can manage to say at first. Truth be told, informing her friends was actually an afterthought. Arcee: A+ friend. At least she manages to think of something more to add before closing up the scroll.]

Obviously gonna have the scroll on me, so don't say I didn't try to stay in contact. Bulk, you're in charge. You know, if you're still here. Considering my luck, who even knows anymore.

I'll come back when I feel like it.

[And that's that. Mini vacation? Mini vacation.]

[If it is possible, her ears droop lower.]

W-what? Naw, it ain't that! A-Ah jus'...

[She doesn't know how to respond to that for a few moments. Such awkward.]

I-it's somethin' folks say to their friends when they're goin' away. It ain't sayin' ya can't take care of yourself, jus'...

...[She's so good at this!] Ah'm...gonna make ya somethin' for the trip...

[Watching Neph explain herself was almost painful. Of course Arcee knew what she meant, but when you're trying to rip off the band-aid as fast as you can, it called for drastic measures.]

You got time.

[Is all she can say. The well wishes are completely lost on her.]

[It's as painful to do as it is to watch, perhaps more so. She nods.]

Ah'll be over soon.

[True to her word, she shows up less than 45 minutes later, carrying a bag of something in her muzzle. She looks around the station before she spots a sullen looking kitty with a bandana, and knowing not to come up quietly on a soldier, she says past the bundle:]

Arcee!

[And true to her words, Arcee's still there at the station waiting for her train. The more she thought about it, the more she probably should have lied about what time the train was coming in. Arcee's not sure how well she can handle this confrontation.]

...Hey.
