[Sniffle sniffle, whimper. Hikari is definitely trying not to cry and it is failing. But she can't sleep, so default communicator usage is go!]

E-everyone, be safe outside! It sounds really scary... s-so... So you have to be very safe!

[And that's all she wanted to say. She accidentally misses the off switch and it keeps recording a little while

[She's never spoken to Hikari, but Jackie knows who she is and she finds it impossible to ignore something like this.]

...are you alright?

[whistleoflight]

[Sniffle...] Uh-huh... I'm okay.

[loyal_inferno]

It's Hikari, right? My name is Jackie. Do you have someone with you?

[whistleoflight]

Jackie-san...

Um... [Trails off.]

[loyal_inferno]

[That sounds like a no.]

Where are you, Hikari? I think it'd be best if you had some company. Is there someone you can call?

[whistleoflight]

I'm okay! I don't need anybody to come over.

[loyal_inferno]

[Sounding skeptical.]

You shouldn't be alone right now. [Or at all.]

Do you still live in Latimir? [Jackie would rather not think on the reason why she knows Hikari lives in Latimir at all.]

[whistleoflight]

Uh-uh... we moved a long time ago. I not alone, I have my teddy.

[loyal_inferno]

[So much frowning.]

But no one else? Where do you live now, Hikari?

[whistleoflight]

I'm a big girl! I can do it.

[loyal_inferno]

Listen Hikari...even if you are a big girl, we all need to stick together. It's important to stick with friends during times like this, okay?

[whistleoflight]

But they'll go away...

[loyal_inferno]

...[...Yeah. She knows. But Jackie can't say that to a kid.]

That doesn't make them not your friends. Right?
