[Her writing is rushed, a little bigger than she would normally write, in her haste to get the words down on the page.]

What the bloody hell happened while I was away?

[A slight pause, and her next writing is almost calm.]

Precisely how long have I been away?

Welcome.

[After a long pause...] You were missed.

It seems a bit silly to apologize for something that was not my fault, but I am sorry anyway. That I could not have come back sooner.

It's better you were safely out of the way. That way no one had to worry about saving you. [Which isn't supposed to be as insulting as it sounds, because Bell believes in protecting his teammates. It just meant she didn't have to die and worry them, while Genius was getting himself killed being heroic and all that. ...and it really doesn't sound any better that way, but anyway.]

[Her first reaction is to be irritated at his assumption she would need saving... but she does have to admit that in a fight, she would most likely be next to useless. And her track record isn't the best, when it comes to needing to be saved. So.] ...I expect so. If this happens again, I will try harder to leave some sort of note, so everyone need not worry so very much.
