[There are a lot of scribbled-out words. Those of you who can read Portuguese (Eridan) or Greek (Cyrus, Eridan) might be able to make out little words and phrases in the pink scribbles - "Help me", "I don't know what to do", "I can't" - but most of the scribbles are too scratched out to be legible.]

[Her handwriting is shakier than normal, and she's dropped her little quirk. All of her 'H's are written normally.]

Could...
Could someone please come get me? I need someplace to stay for the rest of the holidays.
I really hate to trouble anyone, I'm sure everyone's having a lot of fun with their families and friends, but I don't know what else to do.

Please.

I can't stay here anymore.

[Filtered to Iroh]

I don't know what to do, Professor! I just...I have to leave. I can't come back to this house again, but I don't...have anywhere to go.

What? What is it, what's wrong? Are you alright?

[Iroh only briefly scanned the journals and saw this, he didn't take the time to thoroughly read it. He's been too busy helping Xion to really keep up with things lately.]

I...I'm alright, Professor.
Professor Vantas and Karkat came and brought me to their house.

I'm sorry to disturb you, sir, it's just...you're my Head of House. I thought you might know what I could do.
I don't want to go home anymore. No, I can't go home anymore.
But I don't know what to do.
I don't want to be any more of a burden on the Vantases than I already have, but I don't really have anyplace else to go.

What's going on, Feferi? I'm sorry, I haven't been paying much attention the last few days... Ah, hold on, let me just read everything, give me a few moments.

[His reply comes a few minutes later after he does read everything available. And after he takes a few long seconds to contemplate things. Things like how two student's guardians would both die so close to each other.]

Oh... Feferi, I am so sorry. I hope you know you're absolutely more than welcome to stay with me if you want! It would be lovely to have you- I mean, the circumstances aren't lovely, but I hope you know what I mean.

Really? I mean, are you sure that would be okay, Professor?
I don't want to trouble you, but I don't know what else to do.

It's really no trouble in the least! Please don't think you're inconveniencing me.

I'm not just your teacher, Feferi... I consider you a part of my family, you know.

Well, in that case, I can't say no. 38)

Thank you, Professor.

Um.

Is just Iroh okay?

[A small chuckle escapes in an accidental voice message, but otherwise his next message is text.]

Of course! You can call me whatever you like, honestly. Uncle Iroh, Old Coot, tea freak... etc, etc.

[In that case, a gasp and a subdued little laugh come across in reply.]

Oh, I could never call you most of those things.

But I think I might call you Uncle.
