[He did something stupid? Does that mean he caused his own death? There's no point speculating if he could just tell her, but...she chews her lip for a moment. She both doesn't want to see anyone right now yet also does want to see that he's okay...which she can only really do in person...]

[Which is a totally fine and normal series of messages, right? Rita's just going to sniffle and wipe her eyes and splash water on her face--anything to get rid of the obvious signs of crying--as well as give it some time. Or...that's the intention, but ultimately she's not that patient a person when it comes to just waiting around at a time like this.
So it's still sooner rather than later when she opens the door to room 109 and steps in uncharactertiscally quietly, eyes still a little red-rimmed. Huh...he's really here. Somehow, seeing him makes her immediately blurt out the first thing to come to mind.]
So--what do you have to say for yourself?
[Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry--get just a little mad instead; that should work just fine, right?]
