It seems tonight's decided to be chillier. Unfortunate, considering we have a missing child.

[ and this little video begins with that voice and a view of a picture:

A ... missing child ...oh...

You believe that your friend ... has left Johto?

[nodoubleteam]

Indeed. Were it anyone else I would be sure, but this one has a tendency to be rather spontaneous. [ meaning he doesn't know half of the stuff that goes on through that man's head. ]

Ara ara ... He is an unpredictable child? [ That is her guess from the way he describe him on the post. ]

If you call his gear ... what does it say?

video;

[nodoubleteam]

As I've said.

[ the most incredibly unpredictable thirty-something old man, lacus, but he won't say that. ]

The ID number cannot be found. It says quite a bit about our situation.

[ Ah. Then --- very likely it is as Jude fears. He was not in Johto anymore. ]

Then maybe he has returned home ... maybe someday he will return?

[nodoubleteam]

Most likely. [ he shrugs. ] I would rather he stay at home, all things considered.

It is best for children to be surrounded by the people who can care for him ...

... but will you not be lonely?

[nodoubleteam]

[ . . . ahah. what a question. a pause, as he takes that in. ]

I'll die from loneliness.

[ Jade, saying that will make her worry. She takes death very seriously. ]

Please do not say that ... your friends will be sad to hear that.

[nodoubleteam]

[ oh. what a serious reaction--he's not quite used to those, but he's not exactly shaken. ]

. . . Yes, perhaps I was rather careless with my words. My apologies if I offended you.

[lc_whitequeen]

Offended?

[ Did it sound like she was? She did not mean to. ]

video; 2/2

[lc_whitequeen]

No, I was not offended ... I'm sorry. Maybe I reacted badly ...

... but I am worried about you, if you do not mind me saying.

[ he finds that weird, considering they just met, but he's good at playing courteous in the face of kindness. even... if he doesn't really get it. ]

I appreciate the concern.

video;

[lc_whitequeen]

[ No need to understand her. She is really very kind to everyone. ]

If I may ... may I ask for your name?

. . . Jade Curtiss. [ it's weird not attaching the usual soldier's titles, but there's really no point. it saves him some explaining, anyway. ] A pleasure.
