Cotterpin (coming in from a Fraggle hole in Kelly's bedroom and slumping on a Doozer-sized couch): Whew! *looks around and sees Kelly's mattress trying to fluff itself out* Hmmm ... *goes to find Kelly in the kitchen, but she's on the laptop instead* Hey, I see we've had visitors?
Kelly: Oh, hey, 'Pin. How was the thing?
Cotterpin (sighs and holds her visor to her chest, bowing her head): He's taking it pretty hard. Retiring was bad enough, but the old Architect was moping a bit after hearing the news. No one could get a word out of him. *shrugs* But we had our memory build-a-thon and he seems to be getting better day by day.
Kelly: That's good.
Cotterpin: So ... where is he?
Kelly: Where is who?
Cotterpin: -_- Your bedroom is in shambles and you have scale marks on your face.
Kelly (blushes)
Cotterpin (grins): I KNEW it! I KNEW he was coming back!
Kelly (sighs and turns away sadly): Something happened while you and Wrench were comforting the Architect, 'Pin. A coworker showed me a news story about a patient being abused in a nursing home.
Cotterpin: O_O Awful!
Kelly (sniffles): I KNEW that patient, 'Pin. I knew the perp, too. I used to work there. It was like watching my grandmother get shot or watching Old Yeller get flamebroiled to a crisp right in front of me.
Cotterpin: You shoulda called us, you know .....
Kelly (smiling): Jareth heard me. I didn't even make a wish, but the crystal ball in my closet put me in a dreamtrap, one that Jareth sent me. I dreamt I was so upset and so I went into my bedroom, and there he was, resting on my bed. (laughs and hugs self) I was so happy and I hugged him and we sat and talked forever. And I woke up.
Cotterpin: O_O All of that and all you did was TALK?
Kelly (blushes): Hey! We might not be able to see each other in reality due to some blockages in the universe, but Jareth WAS kind enough to turn the world upside down so I could get ensnared in a dream trap which was about the only way I could see him again. All I know is, after we talked, I felt so much better when I woke up! I was able to smile again, instead of just crying at the drop of a hat. I can actually get some sleep now. *long pause* And it helps that the administrator, the D.O.N, and some nurses were fired. The primary aide responsible was arrested. Even though I knew her, I'm glad she's in jail. I can't stand people to get hurt. That's why I haven't been talking much lately. I'm even behind on some emails I found from Ed. But Spike helped me a lot. I hope I can have the strength I need to get back to business.
