I didn’t! I didn’t even think about that. ;_; I was assuming she’d have other things of Lu’s but they practiced at Lu’s place, there’s no reason Mei would have taken anything else from there, she would never have thought she’d lose this. Gosh, in her little apartment, she must have felt so alone and even a little scared, cut off from everything, gossiped and whispered about, because of course the rumors spread so fast even freaking Jack heard them.
She must have wondered what Lu would think after the CAPCOM position was replaced, whether she’d be worried or if the attraction of space and Mars together with time and distance would have put this thing with Mei behind her as some kind of temporary emotional fling. So glad Lu got through to her because it was absolute proof of her devotion, she could absolutely work out for herself the effort Lu would have put to get that one private call. And now she’s going to have to hold it close and live off of it for two and a half years…
