Room 406, afternoon

She'd needed last night, Isabel realized. After everything that had happened, she needed a night of being quiet and feeling safe.

Eventually she'd made it back to her room. After a shower, she'd called her mom, feigning surprise at the news of the destruction of the Meta-Chem, and quickly changing the subject to the cleaning supplies that were currently working busily around the room.

"I know mom," she said eventually. "Yes, we'll be out for dinner soon. I promise. Bye." Isabel hung up her phone and opened her laptop. Solitaire would be a good way to not think for the afternoon.

[Door closed, post is open! And I'm about to go AFK till about 7 EST. I'll grab pings when I get back. And I'm back!!!]

"Of course," Bridge says, worried expression back now that she's admitted that something did go down. He takes off a glove and holds out a hand towards her, letting his sight re-focus to take in her aura.

Her aura that, while it's certainly got properties to it that wouldn't be found on one belonging to an average human, is one-hundred-percent pure Isabel.

"I see *you*," he says. "There's no spell, or other outside influence, or anything, which..." he frowns. "Did you think there might be?"

Isabel nodded. "If you'd done that yesterday, yeah, there would have been."

"Alien weirdness is the simplest way to explain," she shrugged. "A slightly more involved answer is that I died while trying to heal someone. Except instead of healing her, I changed her. To me. And sent myself along for the ride before my body burned out."

"You..." and without another word, Bridge is moving to hug Isabel tightly.

Isabel's gotten a lot of hugs today. And every one has made her felt just a little bit better. "I'm okay now. I promise."

"Good," Bridge says, reassured by Isabel voicing that despite the fact that he'd seen for *himself* that she was really all in one piece. "Just... good. Don't wanna lose you."

"I don't want to be lost," she agreed. "I was for a little while. But I'm okay now." Hearing Bridge say that she was herself had helped tremendously.
