Welcome to Tendi's inbox! If I don't answer immediately, it's probably because I've got my hands full with something toxic, corrosive, or chemically unstable! Or bleeding. Or all of the above! I'll get back to you as soon as I can, byyyye!

The fact that she's getting a notification to her communicator and not a face at the door tells her more or less what she'll see before she sees it. She sighs softly to herself.

As soon as you're ready.

A moment later:

You did amazing for people. Sometimes we can't change some things even when they're terrible. You don't have to reply to this, but I'll be around with hugs when you want them. ♥️

Lucy's so good. Tendi knows it's not just about losing - or potentially losing - so many of the Narrenschiffers who wanted to escape, though that is difficult. It's not just about the violence she witnessed or that her friends had suffered, either. No, the worst part is actually the relief. It's over. She doesn't have to think like a pirate every waking moment. She doesn't have to try to strike a balance between being effective and being herself. She doesn't have to fear what might happen if the Barge doesn't come back, that looming threat of resigning herself to be the version of herself she never wanted to be, or risking abandoning her friends here to try to go 'home', not trusting that the Cap'n can even do that.

Maybe that relief should make her feel happy, but right now? All she wants to do is cry until she passes out and then maybe sleep for a week. She's not going to, but it's a tempting thought. She imagines a lot of people probably feel similarly, right about now.

But she doesn't want Lucy to worry any more than she already is, or to think she's mad about anything, so she does respond. It just doesn't say as much as she'd like to. Later. They can talk later.
