"Thirsty?" she asked next as she took a seat beside his bed once more.

Frei crossed her arms. They had little floaties on them.

Nic shook his head again.

Raven blinked and hugged his knee, taking a moment to come to reality. "... You kicked my knee?" he clarified.

Laurel nodded, "Do you want to sleep more or is there something I can get for you?"

Frei blinked, looking bored as usual. She'd probably learned it from Snow.

Nic shook his head once more; he didn't want anything else.

Raven hoped she had picked it up from Snow. Otherwise he was in a world of trouble. "Don't wake me up like that," he said, just in case that wasn't obvious as he slowly sat up.

Laurel stared at him for a long moment, "I don't trust you just laying there and thinking so would you like to listen to music or should I read to you?" she asked simply.

Frei blinked again.

Nic blinked blankly, not getting it.

Raven yawned a bit and scratched his head. "... Don't you want to spend time with Wolfe?" he asked.

Laurel was silent for awhile before sighing, "I won't let you lay here and brood," she explained, "You're mentally unstable." She seemed to be more blunt than usual.

Frei clearly wanted to swim. "Wolfe's brooding," she said stiffly.

Nic blinked blankly again.

Raven sighed a little and rubbed his eyes. "Alright," he decided. "But only until dinner."

Laurel was silent, presumably waiting for an answer.

Frei shrugged.

Nic didn't answer.

So Raven got up and shooed Frei off to the pool before putting on some swimming trunks and joining her.

So after another long moment Laurel pulled out a book, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer..." and started reading.

Frei was waiting by the slide.

Raven used the bit of energy he had gotten from his nap on Frei.

James was starting to become more recognizable. Every so often, his own voice would come out. He still stuck around Yue like a puppy.

Yue was still recovering herself, so she mostly rested.

Finally, there was a breakthrough. James began to sing, the first time he had sung since losing himself. His voice osculated, he seemed to get closer and closer to his own singing voice. Finally, he hit it and his eyes seemed to clear.

Yue didn't say or do anything, letting James come back on his own.
