Action - 947 Beulah - Late Morning - Open
[It was supposed to be a good day. It really was. Yosuke was up earlier than normal, but he was alive and full of energy. He'd made breakfast, had a nice stretch, and was on his way out the door. When he pulled up]
"'Ey! Mistah Hanamura! Rin almost ready? I was gonna give her a lift to school!"
[The morning was a blur after that. He made some quick excuse - she wasn't feeling well, she had a doctor's appointment, she'd be late - he couldn't remember what, but something. Anything to get the drone version of his best friend away. But something sat in the back of his mind. Something he couldn't quite shake, and so he broke out in a run, hauling ass over to Souji's house. Yosuke checked the yard, looked in windows - anything to find a sign that what happened wasn't permanent. That his best friend would be back in a few days, same as ever]
[There was nothing to find]
[He's not sure what made him check up on everyone else, running from place to place if only to catch a glimpse of them, of some belonging. Probably the panic - blind panic in losing his best friend, his partner and their leader. He's not sure what he expects, but it's not any easier to find Kanji gone too. Even Adachi. Which brings us to the now]
[Yosuke is tired and breathless, sitting on the living room couch and looking like a mixture of stunned and lost. Approach?]

Hey, guys... [He takes a few deep breaths, trying to keep himself under control]
We're down three. Adachi, Kanji... and Souji. You all doing okay?
Filtered to Nanako
[If there's one job he's not fit for it's this, but someone has to do it. But what the hell is he going to tell her? Dammit...]
Nanako? You there? It's Yosuke.
Filtered to Ruri
... can you come over when you get the chance? I could use a hug.
Open/Filtered from Drones
[By now he sounds absolutely exhausted. It's been an emotionally draining day and it's the hardest thing he's ever had to do to even try and keep it together]
Just a heads up for everyone who knew Souji. He's not here anymore. So you're not surprised when you see him.
