[Erica doesn't bother with video or audio for this. She doesn't want to encourage conversation in which she has to actually speak and have people hear how she sounds when she does. It may be obvious that she's hiding behind text but considering circumstances, she doubts that anyone will blame her.]

I know what you were all hiding from me now.
I'm not mad. I get why you all did it.
But I know now so you can all breathe a sigh of relief or whatever.
If you have something to say, say it now, but I'm not interested in having any lengthy discussions after this.

[And hopefully they'll understand if she's a bit withdrawn for a while, because as much as her text says that she's not mad, it doesn't mean she's not emotional. It doesn't mean she's done coping with her now acutely uncomfortable sense of mortality.]

I've known something was up from day one, Scott. I showed up, you looked like a deer in the headlights, and then disappeared to do what I assume was ask Stiles how much to tell me.

I know how Derek feels about this already, though. He's not to blame, this Kali bitch is.

I guess we acted pretty suspiciously...

If a woman shows up here not wearing shoes with clawed feet, it's probably her.

[unfettered]

Seriously? Clawed feet? Is that a thing we didn't know would happen with us or is she just special?

[mccallmemaybe]

Well she attacks with her feet so I guess it saves time having to take her shoes off if they're off all the time...

It's weird. She's weird.

She sounds psychotic.

[And dangerous. And wow Erica is done talking about her killer. The indignity of being taken out by a bad pedicure is just a world of nope for her.]

Anyway, anything else on your mind or are you good?

[mccallmemaybe]

I don't think there's anything else. Unless there's anything you want to know or ask me?

[unfettered]

No, not now anyway. Maybe later if I think of something.

Thanks though.

[She doesn't specify for what, hoping he'll get that it's an all-encompassing but generally vague sort of gesture of appreciation.]

Hey... I know we weren't exactly friends back home, but I'd like to get to know you better here. [ Since he won't have the opportunity to do so back home. ]

And if you need anything, you know where to find me.

[unfettered]

Yeah, we can do that. That'd be alright.

[It would be nice, but Erica finds it a hard phrase to get out.]

I'll hit up your inbox if I need to reach you, or knock on your tree.]

Cool.

Take care. I'll see you around.

[unfettered]

See ya.
