Yeah. It took a day, but I was finally able to get back in. I can't imagine what would've happened if Jon hadn't found me, though. Lindsey was carrying my body away and I couldn't stop him.
I don't know. He said he was trying to do some sort of experiment. Probably to see how the book worked. I was a little preoccupied with... everything to get the specifics.
... Part of him wonders what kind of experiment you can do with a body that doesn't have a soul in it, part of him thinks he and Paimon should be very careful about any book experiments involving other Sleepers.]
so Jon stopped him? how'd you get back into your body?
I don't know. I couldn't for a long time, and then I just got... sucked back in, I guess? I honestly thought I was about to be ripped apart. My skin was just pulling and pulling in all directions, and then... I was back?
I really didn't feel great, but I was... physical again, at least?
Fern, that's a massive deal. Like, I don't even know where to begin. How are you still functional as a person? Everything you say... it's hard to imagine how you've managed. You're so strong... god.
But not everyone could have survived it. I don't know that I could have. I don't know many people I think could. Maybe Jon? He's been through so much. But he's 30-years-old. You're half that.
Maybe not, but you survived it. I'm glad, Fern. I'm just so glad you're alive... and can still have fun? Have friends? I wish it wasn't in a place like this or maybe even where you're from, but it's good you have those things.
Glad to hear it. Just... stick with them, okay, Fern? Especially while you're dealing with what happened. And if you need to talk about it with someone else, I'm hear. I'm pretty good at listening, at least.
