Heya, guys. I'm sure a few of you um, already know what I'm gonna say.
[Chris definitely doesn't look as cheery as usual, but also not terribly upset; mostly he just seems a little drained, but otherwise calm enough.]
Em's uh... Emily's gone. So I guess I'm gonna have to take over for her in the 'telling people like it is' department, and I'd add like, the 'being right' one but I'm already right at least as often as she is. However, I'm totally not doing the sewing or getting up early to run the coffee cart parts. Gonna need other people to step in on those.
[And okay, joking aside, he takes a deep breath and continues.]
I know um, I know a lot of people here knew her, but not necessarily much about uh... What we're going back to, at home, since I don't think she talked about it much. So if anyone has any questions about that, I can probably answer, and hopefully that'll make things... You know. A little easier?
[Worrying about what people are returning to is usually the hardest part on him, when someone leaves, after all. Oh, and one more thing--]
Wolfie's still here, by the way. So no one freak if you see him with me; as Em always said, he only bites if you're an asshole.

Right now. Ask me later, I might be less okay. Tomorrow, I might be more. [ But, she's keeping it together. ] I think okay for me here is a sliding scale.

Yeah, that's um... That's fair.
[He's been there on that feeling, and that combined with the fact that Chris is just generally sensitive and friendly, he feels it's important to offer--]
If you uh, ever want to talk, just send me a message, okay? I mean, I've seen some pretty weird shit here, so...
[So he might get it better than a lot of people would, and he thinks he and Elena are probably pretty close to the same age, which also might help.]

Thanks for the offer, and the same for me, okay? Any time, day or night.
