*There's a soft click, and the sounds of a person settling. In the background there's water, maybe a fountain? A few simple harp notes are plucked, and tuned, and then there's a quiet sigh.

Then this begins to play.*

((Because Del, like the blue-haired vocalioid, can only really express herself through music. X3 She's out in the park. Feel free

[she was rather eager for something familiar as she turned on the communicator, smiling to herself at the sounds of Del's harp.]

Beautiful, as always.

[audio] Oh, this is going to be entertaing. 1/2

[femmebutdanger]

*Okay, people making her JUMP is getting REALLY OLD! But she did. Almost fell off her seat too, she wasn't expecting that.*

[audio] 2/2

[femmebutdanger]

E... Emeraude?

[audio]

[princesseimi]

..goodness, you sound as if you've just heard a ghost.

Yes, it's me. Who else would it be? [she laughs lightly]

[audio]

[femmebutdanger]

...You sound... cheerful. *and Del sounds wary.* I...

What did you do? Your video cut out, and I thought...

[audio]

[princesseimi]

...video? What video?

[audio]

[femmebutdanger]

With the candles and your sai. Where you told the rest of us that it would be the last time we saw anything of you! *She's getting maybe a little irritable now.* Did you even think of what might happen when the rest of us saw that?!

[audio]

[princesseimi]

[it takes her a while, but she eventually clues in.] It was a cleansing ritual! I cut my hair and [she pauses, not actually having voiced this before - it sounds tentative and defeated.] ...gave up the possibility of going home.

So 'Emeraude' doesn't exist. I'd prefer 'Emmy'.

[audio]

[femmebutdanger]

*This sound? It's the sound of a facepalm.* And your camera cut out. We didn't see that all you did was cut your hair. I thought you killed yourself! *She's too annoyed to call you by either name right now, really.*

[audio]

[princesseimi]

[she feels like she's being rather scolded, and for something that wasn't even her fault. Still, at least she now knew why Shinju had tried that - if he had thought she killed herself too, that might've driven him to attempt to 'help' everyone get out of the City...]

I...you honestly thought that? Why?

[audio]

[femmebutdanger]

*Well, to be fair, that's kind of what's happening. But Del's feeling pretty emotional and has no balancer, so she's just sort of lashing out.*

*flatly* Your wording. When you cut yourself. The way the camera suddenly cut out. What was I supposed to think? What were any of us supposed to think?

[audio] Does Del wanna help Emmy get a dog for Shinju for Christmas / his birthday? xD

[princesseimi]

[a flash comes back of a number of Shinju's scars, and how she didn't know what many of them were from - she could figure it out now. The same sort of thing Del - and the others, apparently - seemed to have feared of her. She swallowed before replying.]

Y-you didn't simply...know? Why would I have done something like that?!

Re: [audio] Ah, Del, right now, does not. Rune would, though.

[femmebutdanger]

*Sighs, annoyed, and a little frustrated.* Think, for a moment, about how your worded what you were saying. "Say goodbye to Emeraude, it'll be the last you see of her."? That does not a happy conclusion create.

[audio] Awesome. xD Either way. Emmy'll probably be back with Rune, so...I can write a thread for...

[princesseimi]

...fine. I'll concede it. You didn't think to contact me, though?

[ooc: ...thread for them going out to find a doggy for Shinju? Comm needs some pointless happy. xD]

Re: [audio] That works 8> And yes, yes it does.

[femmebutdanger]

I believed you dead. Where would the point have been?

*a long pause, and when she speaks her voice is more sad and lonely than angry.* I've lost my sister. The thought of losing one of the few friends I have here.... I had to get out of the apartment, or I might have done something drastic myself!

*mutters*Not that Shinju didn't. *please to note Shinju instead of Shin-nii.*

[audio] Ace. I'll set that up either today or tomorrow, then?

[princesseimi]

If I didn't answer, th... [she pauses, realising she wouldn't have answered her phone anyway.]

Well...at any rate. I'm fine. I'm here. And...I'm here for you, in case you want to...do anything. Talk, sit, play a song...anything.
