...It's Rich.
[Might as well not bother with preamble, though that's certainly odd for him. Odder still that he has the video off, even if there's still the faint strumming of guitar suggesting that he's nervously plucking at strings as he often does.]
I'm 18 now, according to the roster. Guess I missed my birthday. I knew it was coming up, but I was kinda distracted with stuff.
[Like having a mental crisis for the better part of two months at least.]
Anyways, was just wondering like... what's the longest someone's been stuck here before they got to go back home? Maybe, uh, maybe it was wishful thinking? But I was kinda thinking with the whole Ministry investigation and how fucking useless I am on the missions that the train would boot me off by now.
[He's really trying to laugh, trying to make that sound like a joke.]
Just. Was thinking about it. At this point, my friends back home probably assume my dad stabbed me or shit... maybe they'll believe those messages we got to send at that river, but more likely they'll think I'm nuts.
[Just another certified Rich Goranski Comedy Routine. He'll be here all week, folks.]

[ It's hard to tell how serious she means that. But she sobers a bit as she looks at him again. ]
And if it's still bothering you, then it does still matter.

[Rich is pretty sure most people are friendly here, even if he's had some run ins. He dearly hopes Kitty didn't have to deal with people like Jack too much.]
...Maybe? I don't know. I mean, it's not going to get fixed until I can get some therapy, and unfortunately, the train didn't zap any nurses over here with me, so I'm kinda stuck just thinking about it.

[ There was plenty to worry about, sure, but that wasn't one of them. ]
Sometimes it does help to just get it off your chest, though. People here may not be therapists, but a lot of people are willing to listen."
