[The inn room is poorly lit, probably just whatever light from the outside that could get through the curtains. Darjeeling the Houndoom can be seen lying at the bed's feet, just beside the owner of the pokegear.

Beatrice looks like she hasn't had a good night sleep in some days, even when she woke up 5 days ago. Her eyes are puffy, but there is no evidence of crying. She does look rather upset.]

Good night... I... just wanted to tell everyone I am awake... and that I am fine.

[She pauses, struggling with something inside...finaly, she frowns, and looks away for a moment.]

I wish to ask to you, all of you who might know the answer... could you please tell me, what is a son? How... how does having a son feel? Please...

[The feed cuts abruptly.]

[Crow doesn't respond immediately, resting his chin on his hand and humming thoughfully.]

Having a son... Or having kids in general-- See, it's complicated!

Sure, you worry about them all the time -- whether they eat enough, what the eat or wear, what games they play and with whom, whether they go to sleep at proper hours, whether you're being a good role model of them, whether you're not giving them enough -- or too much -- freedom... That and much more. It's like you stop thinking about yourself at all, 'cause you've gotta think about someone else -- someone much less experienced, too. You take care of them and want the best for them and can't even be sure if they appreciate it!

[He makes a pause, considering something. Then, he beams.]

... But when you see them smile and hear them laugh... When you see they're happy and you're the one who helped them feel that way... Hell, words can't describe that. It just feels like being on cloud nine!
