Private to the residents of Gohl
[ Her voice is dripping with fear and worry. Uncharacteristically for Lucy, she’s even on the verge of panic. Maybe Eald’s act of being childlike with her has been taken a bit far - since she’s honestly been fooled into thinking he is quite young, she’s losing herself to faintheartedness. ]I’ve been looking for

Wh...
Who are...?
[ If Eald's managed to disappear while hurt - she's assuming the blood is his after all - she can't stand the thought of something happening to another one. Forcing herself to buck up, she takes a shaky breath and tries to sound as friendly (and not terrified) as she can. ]
...Who are you, sweetheart?
Are you safe? In the house?

But he's gone now. Not answering, not answering! Why?

You're right, Eald does say that - and it is.
...We're going to find out where he is, okay? So don't worry. [ Perhaps something she would take as a hint herself. ]

A lot of people are going missing...

...So I've noticed.
I...
We'll find them. [ They have to. Not!Mother is worried. ]

G, going to help look. Going... going to help! Uryuu! [N-not going to... cry! Have some camera shaking as he scoops up the communicator in his over-sized sleeves and hobbles off with it.]

[ Shit shit, damn! ]

Don't go...? Uryu-?

Don't...
Don't go outside. We don't know if whatever might have caused his disappearance is outside.
...Why don't you come to Eald's room with me?
We can look for evidence together? [ Hopefully the non-bloody kind. /sob. ]

Uryu-. I'll come to Eald's room. Want to help, want to help! [And he'll be tottering his way there now.]

I'll be here, then. Just be careful. [ Thank God, potential crisis averted. ]

She's got her hands planted on Eald's desk, head lowered; not really looking at anything, just trying to take in the situation and make sense of it (she's also trying to tell herself she's not crying, but ffff.)
Hearing the little voice, she pulls a hand from the desk to brush her face and then looks up toward the door. Her lips tug into a gentle if not weak smile. Pushing herself to stand up straighter, she shifts and moves a bit closer to the door. ]

U, uryu-. Lucy... sad...?
[He slips into the room, limping a little. One of his legs is all bandaged up.]

...I'm just worried about Eald. We all are, right? It's okay to feel sad when someone you care about is missing.
[ Sweet zombie Jesus, is this little boy patched up? What the hell happened to him? Watching him limp breaks her head just a bit, why she isn't sure having just met him - it might just be that he's so little and she doesn't think a child should ever have to suffer.
Approaching him and kneeling, she smiles to him. ]
But I think with you helping me look, I'll feel better. A strong boy like you can help, right?
