"Maybe we can fix that at some point soon." He could offer right now, but it doesn't seem like a good time for her, and frankly it isn't a good time for him either. But he does mean it. "And listen, whatever it is that's been getting you down... I hope it gets easier for you. Most things do."
Valdis isn't sure that things will get easier anytime soon, but she has to move forward, has to wake up every day and choose to keep going. At least she still has Fever by her side.
"Let's count on it, then," North agrees, sounding like he's lifted slightly. Like his cheer takes a little less effort. Just a little, but it counts. "Thanks for getting back to me, Valdis. I'll see you around, alright?"
Valdis bites her lip, glad he can't see her uncertainty in this moment.
"Yeah, I'm sure you will. Thank you for reaching out."
It feels awkward to hang up now, but the conversation is over and she's not sure what else to say, thus she sets down her stone and leaves it on the table as she heads back upstairs.

"Don't worry, I won't be picking anymore fights."
There are some that might be surprised to hear that, but she knows where to direct her energy now.
"Not on my own at least, it's never good to fight alone when there are people who wish to stand beside you."
There's still the demons to deal with after all, and Nyarlathotep.
"I will say it is a pleasure to meet you, even if we aren't face to face."
