Ken! [Ema waves from the distance, trying to get his attention.]

You're in one piece!

[weiss_tank]

Ema! Boy, am I glad to see you! [He makes his way over the rubble and waves at her.]

How ya holdin' up?

[glowing_science]

I'm glad to see you, too.

And I'm alive and in one piece. That's enough. [She smiles, although it fades after a bit.]

I know you're not friends or anything, but... have you seen Schuldig? He seems to have vanished into thin air.

[weiss_tank]

[Ken shook his head] No, I haven't seen him since the Halloween incident. [And he's still mad about it. Stupid Schuldig]

Whatever the case, if he ain't dead, he's fine. We got bigger things to worry about.

[glowing_science]

So he targeted you then, too, huh? That was... unpleasant. [UNDERSTATEMENT.] Just figured I'd ask.

Miakis and everyone else in your house okay?

[weiss_tank]

Yeah...Did he get you too? Don't worry about.

Yeah, Miakis is alright, I haven't found the kids yet though. I just hope Lyon and Lym went to go find the Prince. I don't know where Omi's gotten to though.

[glowing_science]

Hmm. Well, it's easy to lose people in this chaos; I hope they're all okay.

Are you trying to find useful supplies in this madness, too?

[weiss_tank]

Yeah, honestly I don't know what else to do at this point. I'm too used to having a base to come home to.

[glowing_science]

So am I.

You know, I thought I'd been through the worst this place has to offer. Apparently, I was very wrong.

[weiss_tank]

Yeah well, we'll live through this too. We gotta. I don't think this place has given up on us yet.

[glowing_science]

I almost wonder if it'd be easier if they did. Call this a failure and send us all home.

[weiss_tank]

Yeah like that's gonna happen. Because then it'd have to admit that we won, and I have a feelin' this things got a bigger ego then Mastermind.

[glowing_science]

[Despite herself, Ema laughs at that.] And that's hard to do.

[Although, with how Schuldig's been lately, how much of his ego is actual ego is up for debate. Still, Ken likely doesn't care about that.]

Just... be safe, with whatever comes. Okay?

[weiss_tank]

[That's pretty accurate, he doesn't really care about that. He dislikes Schuldig too much.]

It really is, ain't it. But yeah, don't worry about me, ok Ema? I've dealt with worse shit then this.

And you be safe too, ok?

[glowing_science]

[Ema knows, which is why she's keeping her thoughts to herself. He doesn't have the questionable honor of living with him and developing a strange sort of who-even-knows with him.]

I will be. After I finish making sure people are okay, I'm hiding with Edward. And not coming out for anything until this blows over.

[weiss_tank]

[Which is probably for the best. They would either end up killing each other every day, or Ken going berserk.]

Good idea. Find a good secure place and stay there.
