[It's late, the room is dark. Jill is sitting up in bed, staring to her left. The space next to her is empty, but few would know that to be strange. She looks uncomfortable, upset--though that expression is quick to fade to a blank stare when she finally looks back to the camera.]

...He's gone...

[And there's a long silence, before she just shuts

[It takes him a minute to respond, as he's trying to adjust the video so it doesn't look too awkward. Though he was feeling REALLY odd about this. She looked upset though.]

Uh hey...are you going to be okay?

[Clearly not as someone was gone but, hey, it's the thought that counts ....right?]

[There's a lag in her response as well. She looks tired, worn down.]

Yeah...I'll be alright. [A lie, one she's to tired to even hide properly.]

[itshammertime]

You look tired. [He frowns some, leaning on his arms as he looks into the video.]

Are you sure? I mean... do you need some company? [Aw man he was really bad at this whole cheering up thing. Why is he so bad at this?]

Long night...[There wasn't any way she was going to be able to sleep now.]

It's kind of you, offering company to someone you hardly know. [It was a kind gesture, one she appreciated. She sighs, and tries for a smile though it falls short.] I'll be all right...Maybe not now, but I will be.

[Video: English] and i totally just bought a paid account to fix that

[Normally he would ignore this, but the grief in her voice brings back the memories of Malik after Kadar's death.]

Is there... Do you require assistance? [He's a lot bit rusty at this whole polite thing, but is making the effort.]

[She looks at the video, watching him silently for a moment before shaking her head.]

No...Once a signal disappears, there's nothing anyone can do.

[Video] shut the hell up.

[livethecreed]

[He does not understand her exact words, but understands the meaning.]

I apologize then. [He pauses awkwardly for a few seconds before continuing.]

His God will watch over him. [He's attempting to be reassuring, though he knows he may not succeed.]

[Video] you know I love you~

[It would be a comforting thought, but then again the time she is from has a madman trying to claim the right to be a god so...]

As long as he's safe back home...[A partner's safety, that's all that matters.]

Jill...?

Elena...

...Chris's signal disappeared. [At the least she can offer a friend a straight forward response.]

[lastyears_model]

Oh God.

[ Damn it. And after everything that just happened, was it really... ] ...do you need anything? You know you're always welcome here.

...Thank you. There's nothing right now, but I will keep that offer in mind. [She does try for a smile. At least she's not completely alone here.]

[He's not sure who she means, and he doesn't know her well, but Federico can tell she's upset. Even if more through silence than anything.]

... I hope where they are now is better than here.

[Said trying to be comforting. As personally he was sure any where had to be better than Discedo, but who knew.]

[click_reload]

...I hope he is as well...

[They weren't well known for having luck avoiding danger, but most anywhere is better than Discedo.]

[is_the_eldest]

[This is true fact.]

Ah, will you be alright?

[click_reload]

Maybe not immediately...but I will be. I'll be alright.

Are people vanishing again?

[click_reload]

I don't think this is like the last time...

[assworthsaving]

Meaning they won't be coming back?

[She winces, but gives a slow nod.] That's exactly what it means...
