[Video - fail call to Magneto]/Action for those with access to her flat if you dare*

[thelittlestbub]

[Jubilee looks a little confused and severely distraught.]

Michael... Michael I can't find Light. His clothes are still on the chair, and he isn't in his other apartment and he wasn't there when I woke up and he's not in the house.

Michael, please. I can't find him! He's missing! The Joker, Yaha... they could've... I don't know how they would've

[Erik doesn't respond to the call right away. He knew here were no breeches in security, knew Light hadn't LEFT the building unless he was a teleportor, and started to check the island, when he rehears the voice of announcing Light's NV is no longer in service.]

Damn. Dammit, dammit, DAMMIT!

2/2 - video

[makes_asteroids]

Jubilee?

video

[thelittlestbub]

[She still hasn't moved. There's no tears, no raging, but she's got her arms wrapped tight around her like she's trying to hold the pieces together... and failing at it, really.]

I didn't mean to disturb you. It's fine, Michael.

[No one's ever heard Jubilee go crazy. Though this seems to be the edge of it.]

Re: video

[makes_asteroids]

I'll be over in a few minutes.

[He's not asking for permission.]

Re: video

[thelittlestbub]

Okay.

[It's an automatic response. She's gone into robot mode.]

*action

[makes_asteroids]

[End Feed and he's already walking, not knocking, just letting himself in, looking for Jubilee.]

Re: *action

[thelittlestbub]

[She hasn't moved. She's still in her room, bent over her crossed arms, sitting on her knees. The phone is across the room, but at least it's stopped recording. Her head is bent, looking almost like she's in prayer. Except... well, she's not. She's holding onto her sanity. Literally.]

Re: *action

[makes_asteroids]

[He doesn't say anything, just crosses to her, kneeling behind her and scooping her into his arms, into his lap, and holding on so tight.]

Re: *action

[thelittlestbub]

[There's a soft pop, and a smoking of her bathrobe. She wasn't expecting any physical contact at all; it startled her already strung out nerves. She's completely stiff and actually moves away from him.]

I'm sorry I disturbed you. It's fine now.

[She can't bear physical contact yet. She might shatter.]

Re: *action

[makes_asteroids]

Sure you are. [He does let her move away, but stays close.]

I'm going to make you something to drink,and you're going to drink it. [He pick sup her NV and lays it on a table. Don't worry, he's only making tea.]

Re: *action

[thelittlestbub]

Okay.

[AS long as she isn't touched, she's okay... sort of.]

Re: *action

[makes_asteroids]

[He goes to his kitchen, making tea. Rosehip, lemon, chamomile. He takes the pot of tea back to Jubilee's condo, and brings her a cup.]

Here. Drink this.

Re: *action

[thelittlestbub]

[She looks at the tea cup stupidly, then up at Magneto. One hand rises to touch the cup but it's shaking so badly that she can't get a hold of it.]

I... can't.

Re: *action

[makes_asteroids]

I can get you a straw. And I'll hold the cup. Is that all right?

Re: *action

[thelittlestbub]

Okay.

[She hasn't changed tones at all. She's completely monotone and flat. There's nothing human in that voice.]

Re: *action

[makes_asteroids]

[He's heard that tone. So fetches the straw, makes sure the tea is warm but not hot, and sits beside her, holding it up for her to drink.]
