[It's late at night, and Ritsuka is sitting in the kitchen of his apartment. An blond man in his twenties (Soubi) can be seen sort of hovering in the background - making tea, puttering around, keeping an eye on Ritsuka and just trying to stay out of the way

Triela's missing?

[A pause.]

Here, I'll head out and look for her.

[A pause, thinking.]

Soubi and I will come with you. I can't - I can't let you go out there alone.

I'm not going to disappear, Ritsuka.

I didn't say I was scared you were going to disappear! [Even if snapping it like that, well, kind of confirms that he is.]

We already looked everywhere we could think of. Her jobs. Places she liked to visit. Everywhere we've ever gone together, everywhere I've ever known her to go. I know how you feel but we just don't have any leads...

[Gently:] I didn't say you were scared, Ritsuka.

I can look into the companies for you. I can try to sense her, as well. I'll be able to tell if she's on the island.

[little_bandages]

We'll go with you. Soubi and I.

...You can really sense if she's here or not? [That'd be great... if she's still here. But what if she's not? What if she's gone? Does he really want that hope gone? It was so horrible, feeling the link between he and Soubi severed.]

All right. I'll come over to your place to see you.

Yeah, I can. It wouldn't be too hard once we went to a few points in the city where I can stretch my power out to see.

[little_bandages]

Okay. We'll be ready when you get here.

Ten minutes tops.
