[The message, tossed on the journal some time in the early afternoon, is short, carefully scripted, and with the camera concealed to keep it anonymous. He has no intention of dealing with the aftermath unless he absolutely has to.]
Luke fon Fabre and Xion have returned to their respective worlds.
[A short while later, another message is sent privately, though not so anonymously:]
[Private to Buffy and Jack (Horner)]
I won't be at the bar tonight. Close it if you want, work the shift yourselves, I don't care.
[After that, he's in the wind. First he goes out into the woods to where Luke was when they last spoke, to check for any signs of what might have been left, then to Luke's apartment to scour the place; he returns with a necklace, a ring, the Jewel of Lorelei, and a lot of hollow feelings.
After that, it's off to the Battle Dome, where he'll spend the next several hours destroying every simulation he can come up with, working his way through several of them one after another. He'll only stop once in a while when, in the midst of his fury and frustration, his body decides it's had enough; his heart seizes up, protesting the way it's being overworked. It's yet feeling the relief of that fact that for the first time in years, the weight of Luke's presence, their connection, no longer exists. His dissonance has been halted but he honestly wasn't prepared for how it would make him feel.
He won't be home for a long time.]

[Even if they aren't going to the same place. And he's got no idea of Luke's fate, but from what he knows of Xion's, her's isn't all that happy. Really, the timing is more of a farce than anything, which is probably why a twisted smile is on his face even as he says this. It's easier to smile]

[For them, anyway. Or maybe just for Luke- he didn't have to deal with living here without her, after all. This is much better.
For Xion... not so much.]
