The Grand Adventures of Watanuki, logbook entry 057 [public :: voice; a few hours post-explosion]

[Watanuki's voice is shaking audibly, and he swallows hard before he speaks:]Is-- is everyone all right? I've just finished cleaning up the kitchen-- one of the cabinets just, just flew open! There was sugar everywhere... I mean, I've cleaned it up, the kitchen is fine, it's nothing to worry about! It's fine. Is everyone here? Safe, I mean. Was

He's not back yet!?

[flailingbento]

No. He didn't come back with the others. Him or Utena.

[drinkitlovelife]

No way... No, there's no way anything actually happened to them. They probably just... ran into a bunch of sky fish or something and had to go around them, I don't know!

[flailingbento]

Yes. They had... something to do there. I believe that. Everything's difficult right now, they might not have had time to communicate, and I don't think they'd have brought their journals, and who knows if the radios are working after that shockwave-- I mean, it could be anything! And Ichigo promised he wouldn't--!

...He said he'd come back. So it'll be fine.

[son_of_the_lake]

He was on the Rahki River mission, wasn't he? I'm with the Nahk crew, and we're still in the air. When was he supposed to arrive?

[flailingbento]

A few hours ago-- I'm not sure how long ago, but he was-- I guess he was delayed, or they stayed behind to-- to-- [There's got to be a reason they would stay behind, of course, he just can't think of it right now and he's going to leave off thinking about that for a moment.]

--so you haven't gotten word? Nothing over the radios, or--?

[son_of_the_lake]

No, but then I'm just a passenger at the moment. I'm sort of jammed into the back of the plane, and would have to climb over some serious obstacles even to get close enough to scream at the navigator/radio operator, let alone hear a transmission.

You sound really worried.

[flailingbento]

No, please don't go to any trouble-- it's fine. I'm sure he's fine.

[a shaky laugh.] Well, everyone's worried-- I mean, they're part of the crew, him and Utena. Everyone hopes they'll make it back safely.

[worried] He's gotta be okay, Kimi. It's Amicus, and he was fine a few hours ago. He better be okay.

[flailingbento]

I'm sure he's perfectly fine! There are a million reasons he might not be replying. I'm sure he just has something more important taking up his time. You know he's terrible at multitasking. [It's a weak joke, but it was a valiant attempt.]
