( Cut for length )

Is this working? Good. Good afternoon, I need just a moment of your time. Where am I and why? If you have a map I’d like to see it for a moment. I don’t intend to stay long. Please, I only want a few moments of your time then I’ll be on my way ( Read more... )

[Lenalee sounds breathless. She hasn't quite given in to panic.

But she's not far from it. It's lurking at the very edge of her voice.]

I can't find Komui anywhere, and he isn't answering me!

I have to look for him! Can someone cover my patrol?

I...just wanted to apologize to everyone for the other night. I'm not sure what happened with my Forge. I was sure I had it right with me!

[But obviously she didn't. And she's not even going to wonder how it got turned on. She's just thankful to be out of that house.]Anyway, it was just returned to me this morning, so that's why I didn't have a ( Read more... )

[Familiar voices. One male and one female.]

Why won't you just admit that you've been watching me! Can't you even go to a party without being a jerk!

[Lenalee's taken to the skies right after a certain video flashed across her Forge. And she knows that a great many people are just as worried as she is.]

I see them! They're in the ruins! I...I think it really is Priscilla.

[But there's doubt in her voice. Because it looks more like a monster than the small blonde girl who leads everyone to ( Read more... )

[At first, the only thing that can be heard is the sobbing of a child. It's not the cries of a child who's simply been denied a new toy, not even one who's fallen and skinned their knee. It's the sound of a little girl that's been completely heartbroken.
