I did notice, but thank you, for the consideration all the same. I am certain we will see each other again once we return to Remnant . . . of sorts, anyway.
How are you doing, Yang? I also noticed Miss Belladonna's name etched into the wall, when I went to visit.
I'm fine. [Answered just a hair too quickly, even if she sounds decisive about it.] I mean, it's kinda like you just said: I'll see her back home.
[Which, admittedly still blows her mind whenever she thinks too long about it because this same time last year she was pretty sure she'd never see her again.]
Like I guess it's too bad she missed out on Helisium again but...it's no big deal?
[She's starting to remember exactly why speaking with Ozpin makes her uncomfortable. Not only does he have a knack for bringing up the exact subject she was trying to avoid, but even a simple question like "how are you doing?" feels sorta loaded. It's like a chess game where if she gives too short an answer he'll notice and might ask further and if she gives too long an answer it looks like she's over-compensating and hiding something.
[ reading people is a gift! and it helps that most of his students wear their hearts on their sleeves. besides, blake is yang's partner; surely, yang is upset that blake is gone. ]
Too true, but she may turn up again yet. And if not, I'm certain she is busy enough with what is going on in Remnant.
[ judging from the stories he's heard, anyway. ]
She's been through here a few times, hasn't she? Miss Belladonna.
[Yang getting upset about Blake being gone? Pffffff...
The possibility of Blake coming back or not just wrings a hum of agreement out of her. Honestly she's really not sure what to think about either possibility, so she's glad to have a question she can give a slightly more decisive answer to.]
Yeah. Twice, at least. ...I think? [Blake could have turned up in Empatheias before anyone else in their group can remember. How would they even check that?] So's Ren.
...And me too, I guess.
[Although for the life of her, she cannot remember that first time. Possibly much to Weiss's chagrin.]
[ he can sense her hesitation, in the 'i think'. and it bothers him, to know that people cannot remember their time here, when they leave. it makes the entire experience feel so . . . pointless, sometimes. but: ]
At any rate, that only means they may return -- or they may be waiting for us, at home. Either way, we will definitively see them again. Especially Qrow, who cannot seem to mind his own business no matter how hard I try to keep him out of it.

The quip prompts a snicker from her though and she hardly hesitates to gently sass back.]
I mean, you did sorta give him a license to snoop.
["See more"? "Move freely"? You played yourself there, Ozpin.]
But I guess you're right. It'd be kinda great to get a heads up one way or the other though, you know?
[The amulets should come with one of those automated "Now Arriving" or "Now Departing" announcer voices.]
