I didn't mean to go through. I was only trying to see if I could find Anne, and while I was looking in it's like it moved to swallow me up and.

[There's a pause here as Neil tries to collect himself. He's managing not to sniffle, but not even trying to hide how distraught he is.]

I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't know I'd fall through.

I want to come back. Please. I don't want to be here.

There are... holes in the barrier? And it looks like you can go home through them, but not really, it's not really home on the other side.

Anne was okay last time I talked to her, I bet she's stuck like me though. Alone, wherever she is.

That sounds like something, I'd normally be up and out investigating. Actually, I'd probably have been dumb enough to got through, if it had happened before I went home and came back like this.

I'm sorry. I mean--never mind. Poor kid. I mean, I was cursed out of my brains for most of my intereaction her, but she seemed pretty nice.

Came back like what?

If she's stuck somewhere like where I am, she's probably okay...

In a fully body cast with no superpowers, basically. But I'm okay. Well, I mean, I'm not, but--at least there's a hospital here. And I was sort of desperate to get home before but at the moment--we'll I'm not about to be homesick after a day.

Aliens crashed my school dance and then there was a fight in space. They had Scarabs like I have and then mine managed to override them and started rebooting and then suddenly there was a lot of falling.

Voice; sometimes Neil just does not know what to say to these things

...Oh.

Wow.
