[ It's been two weeks since she's woken up in the Complex, the effects of her cryostasis wearing off, finally. The effects of her death and resurging, that's another story. Her throat and lungs aren't feeling so raw but the latter still feels rough. At least she no longer feels like she's going to choke with each breath she takes. And the hacking up blood has stopped. On the other hand, the nightmares of the exact moment don't come as often but they're there.

They're always there. ]

I was always under the impression that when you died, you stayed dead. There were no second chances. Maybe I haven't come to terms with it. I've come close to death's door too often but never like that.

Has anyone ever...?

[ If anyone here has died and returned, wouldn't asking bring back unpleasant memories? Elena's aware of that, unfortunately there's only been one other person whom she's been able to talk to who can relate.

This isn't something she can talk to Nate about because of how sensitive a topic it is between them still, and that's why she's locked the post from him. She needs to know if there are others.

Plus there's just one more thing... ]

My wedding ring also seems to be missing... It's plain silver and has an engraving on the inside. It's been missing since I woke up in the Complex.

If it's shown up anywhere then please, I'd appreciate a heads up.

( ooc; the ring is gone forever, and although the post is locked from older!nate, it's still free game for anyone who knows him to bring up the post/topic/any conversation to him. c: )

my mom says that when you die you meet god in heaven and he answers all your questions
but i know somebody who died and hes here

Your mom, she's big on religion?
I know what you mean. There was a man here that I knew back home who'd died.
I wouldn't call him a bad man, misguided was more like it.
It was quite the experience seeing him alive again.

yeah she used to take us to church every sunday

[ He misses that, and her, as much as a kid with no soul can miss somebody. ]

i think the guy i know is just bad
maybe
sorry i shouldnt have said that

did the guy you know tell you how he got here?

it used to be a thing for us, too, in the beginning, but the older i got the busier they got with their work

why be sorry? it happens. you can't blame yourself for other people's misgivings

yeah, funny that.
he got here by trying to blow up my husband who wasn't my husband at the time and i just happened to be there with him and a now mutual friend

[ Funny how that works out. ]

thats how it got with my dad too
he was busy a lot but mom took us every week until she had to stop

its just not real christian to say that kind of stuff about people
even this guy
i think

whoa thats super confusing
why was he trying to blow up your husband
?

unfortunately there's a lot of things in the world that christians say and do that aren't real christian like to do or say in the first place
but it's done and said anyway

I believe so
he was dying
and he was mad - not MAD mad but he was carrying some feelings towards my husband that weren't nice or good
he figured he'd take him down with him and we were all just there, kind of like a in the wrong place at the wrong time situation
