( There are things March understands that Dan Heng can handle -- enemies, monsters, a whole plateful of delicious food. Even channeling whatever it is he does when he lets himself take on his true form. But she's never seen him exert himself like this; they really were in a tough spot back there, huh? But they're all okay now -- Stelle, Mr. Yang, Himeko -- even Pom-Pom can't help but be relieved when all of them file onto the train afterwards, desperate for the chance to just relax away from everything.

Except--

Dan Heng's not quite right. March can't exactly say what's wrong with him, except that his face isn't really working. And, see, she knows when he's just being Dan Heng and not making any expressions or emoting or whatever, and this isn't it. He hasn't said much since touching the ground again, if anything, and even for Dan Heng that's weird. Everyone's busy trying to take care of themselves, and continue talking to the leadership of the planet they'd been fighting on and for, and Dan Heng does make his way to the Archives without any trouble. But since she's okay, just a little sore, she can see what's going on with him better than anyone else.

Which is why she's knocking on his door, before rocking back and forth on her heels. )

Dan Heng? It's me, March!
