"And while we're walking, you can fill me in on what happened. And how long I was gone."

"Sure." Ilias responded.
On their way there, he told her all the relevant information. Specifically, how long she was 'gone', what had happened, and what he knew. He hadn't been around for all of it, but he DID have info from others.
And overall, Kiah had to agree that it could have been a lot worse.
However, how Lindsay seemed to be after encountering K was concerning.
"...but that's about it." he said as they entered her office.
"And no, I don't know when Nate will be back to work." he added.

Yo, is your brother home? And if so, can you send him to me? Or would it be better if I came there?

She was waiting for a few seconds, before there was a reply.
Depends on who this is. it read.
Kiah just sighed and shook his head.
It's me. Kiah. It's really me. I'm not the other one. she sent in response.
Again, silence for a moment or two, before there was a reply.
Lindsay doesn't want to leave the house right now. And I'm not forcing him to. Ash sent her.
I don't necessarily know if it would be 'better' if you came here, but if you must speak to him, it's the only option. the last text told her.

"How badly did she destroy Lindsay?" She asked.
"Because Ash is basically saying that he's turning into a bit of a shut in. Which is so unlike him."

Ilias thought for a moment.
"Well, I wasn't there." he said.
"However, I think what happened is that Lindsay became... VERY scared of K." he told her. "I guess she instilled some kind of fear in him." he went on, pausing again to think some more.
"Also, might be that she had his research destroyed is weighing on him. Or that it was apparently something bad that he was doing." he went on.
"Could be a combination of things." he continued.
"But if I were to wager a guess, she just attacked the primal feelings of fear within him. She's... disturbingly good at that."

Kiah commented with a light shrug. "I don't want to cause him undue stress. Even if he was bringing hell to the surface." she added with a sigh before sending a text to Lindsay.
Yo. Just wanted to let you know that I don't hate you. Thank you for destroying your research though, as painful as it may have been. Love you, cuz. was all she sent before shoving her phone in her pocket.
"All right... so. Any unfinished anything that needs tending to?" She asked, her voice curious as she looked around.
"I knoew we were working on paperwork and shit last I recall, but I'm wondering if that ever got finished, or if there's more to do, something else?" she continued.
"Just tell me what still needs doing, or whatever, and I'll do what I can to help."

"Yeah, that paperwork is... done." he said.
"I needed to distract myself when you were unconscious, while at work, so I decided to do the paperwork. And... I ended up... finishing it..." he admitted, knowing she would have something to say about that.
It had been a LOT of paperwork, and the fact that he solo'd it meant he had worked an unhealthy amount while she was out.
"Oh, if you want to check on Nathan, you can." he then suggested.
"I'm sure he'd like to see that you're back." he reasoned.

"Then, before I decdie upon anything else, I have another question for you." She continued, pausing a moment.

"Ah... heh..." he chuckled.
"A... a week." he said.
"Actually, a bit less than a week." he said further, pausing again.
"....5 days..." he then admitted.
That made the fact that he had done all that paperwork himself a LITTLE better... but that was paperwork that they had planned to space out and get done every so often, as the deadline had been a month from when she passed out for all of them.

"They tackled her to the floor. Like... rough." he told her.
"Damaged your glasses and your nose." he went on.
"So if your nose is a little tender, or if your head feels sore in one area... yeah, that'd be why..."

She could tell he had intended to work from home until she got back, at least a little... but her inclusion of Helena as a spy had put an end to THOSE plans.
"Guess I'll go now." he said.
"No point in hanging around HERE." he mumbled further.
"Any idea when you'll be home?" he then asked her.
