As much as Ruby may tell anyone otherwise, that homesick feeling never really went away. She was happy in trench, happy with the life she had built here. But there was always a little bit of a longing feeling to see everything she had left behind, to go back to everything that had been left undone. ...She wasn't sure if she'd ever come to terms with that.

She takes the cup of tea. And smiles softly- her and Ozpin weren't exactly on the best of terms right now. But she could set that aside for Blake's sake. Be polite and have a cup of tea with a dear friend and teammate.

"Are you kidding? I mean- half the time I'm covered in soot and who knows what else in my shop. You're doing just fine.

...Did you find anything good there? I'm guessing you weren't checking out the comics."

"I'm educating myself on the Pthumerians. There's a lot of knowledge that people here have acquired over time, and I'm just trying to catch up. Although, I wonder if that's a little less relevant now after recent happenings."

She's constantly feeling one step behind, here. And lately, that feeling has only gotten worse -- but after her death, everything has felt a little worse. She doesn't know if it's some kind of trauma, or just an effect of Trench, or corruption, or all three piling onto her.

Mostly, she's just trying to count the good things. Like Ruby, sitting across from her. Or Seasmoke, curled up in her pocket, with his head sticking out as he sleeps peacefully.

She takes a sip of her tea, thoughtful. "Although, with the recent discovery that people can travel so much further outside of Trench now, maybe the Pthumerians here aren't where I should be turning my attention."
