[Waking up from being asleep for a year is much like coming out of a coma. It took Mary a few days to feel truly herself again, but now she's back and well and truly confused about what happened to her.
The last that she remembered, she had finally been able to smash the damn harp in her dreams and get some rest from the depression that constantly haunted her for weeks. One night she drifted off and the next thing she knew it was May... a year later. Obviously, much has happened and she wonders why she had to be the one to be put into a magical sleep and miss everything.
She experienced a dream, or what felt like a dream, during her sleep - that she was back at Downton and that she had interacted with her family members, even lived her life there for a year while her body was asleep here. The details of what happened are clear, though remembering it feels like watching everything happen through a veil over her face.
On the locket she appears rested, to say the least. She's bathed, washed her hair, and styled it so that she looks presentable. But there's confusion and a bit of fear in her eyes as she tries to get answers.]
Have I truly been asleep for a year? I fear this could be quite a long conversation, but what have I missed? And was I the only one afforded this privilege of missing out on a year of my life?

I don't know. There's a few of us who wouldn't object. [He's trying to be upbeat but it's a very thin smile.] It's a lot to fill in and - well, there wasn't anything momentous like the last battle, but not all of it was pleasant. [His smile attempts to broaden again, trying for everyone's sake not to make it sound too bleak with - ] Although I'm afraid you missed some good parties.

So I have heard. Why would fate hate me so much as to have me awake during the war and asleep during social gatherings?

[He had exposed his telepathic ability back when everyone was struggling with the harps. It had surprised her, of course, but was anything really surprising here anymore? Mostly she's curious about it.]
