[There's a long silence -- but there's the sound of breathing, so the feed is definitely on -- and it sounds as if Rachel is debating whether or not to say anything at all, judging from the soft humming coming from the voice feed.

She's thinking.

But, ultimately, she speaks softly, with some trepidation, plenty of concern, and a lot of sadness.]

[He's browsing the network and being bored then come across this. Anna - eh probably busy.

Wait what. ]

WHAT.
WHAT THE-
I THOUGHT ANGELS COULDN'T DIE.
ARE YOU REALLY SAYING SHE'S DEAD?
...JUST WHAT MANAGED TO KILL HER?
WHY?

[TEXT]

[showchoirstar]

[Holy angry text batman.]

She died days ago. I don't know exactly what happened, but I have gathered it was an accident.

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil]

I wish I knew.

[Video]

[showchoirstar]

[Hrgh, she'll let the feed carry over. She's sitting on the steps of Solve, watching a sheep graze nearby.]

I wish there was something I could actually do.

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil]

...To get her back? [His mind is a little bit stuck on Anna. He did watch her die, after all. He has the burns to prove it.]

[Video]

[showchoirstar]

Anything of use, really.

[Rachel sometimes feels like she's more of a hindrance than a help. And by sometimes, we mean most of the time. She isn't remarkably powerful or and she doesn't have special powers or skills. She just... sings. And spends most of her time being told to stay out of trouble and get out of the way.]

[Video]

[serenadesdragon]

Well...doesn't it take some people a bit longer to come back than others? It just...depends on the person.

[Video]

[showchoirstar]

[The video carries over -- Rachel isn't one for hiding how she feels, in any circumstances -- so it shows her sitting on the steps at Solve, watching a rainbow colored sheep.]

I suppose.

[He lets out a sigh before turning his PCD off and heading out toward where Rachel is sitting. He sits down next to her on the steps, his eyes focusing on the sheep in front of them.]

There's still time for her to come back.

[Offline]

[showchoirstar]

[She doesn't look over, at Blaine sitting down next to her. She's frowning at the sheep.]

... I know there is.

[Rachel then drops her head onto his shoulder, lightly, and her tone becomes quieter.]

I am just tired of waiting for something bad to happen.

[Video]

[wingsandwill]

I've been informed it could take over a week. It hasn't yet been even that long.

[Despite how much longer it felt.]

[Video] 1/2

[showchoirstar]

[Rachel looks over at her PCD with something of a sharp look, because that sounds something like a 'be patient'.]

It has been long enough.

[Video]

[showchoirstar]

[ -- but the attitude fizzles almost immediately and Rachel's shoulders slump slightly.]

... I'm sorry, I just --

[She's really tired of her friends dying. But Rachel doesn't say that out loud, because:]

You're her brother, right?

[Video]

[wingsandwill]

[He's not offended at the initial reaction in the slightest; he understands, and he agrees. Even for angels, who were so incredibly old, time could pass so very slowly.]

Yes.

[And a pause, then a forcibly confident comment.]

She'll return.

[Voice]

[buntails]

She'll be back. Soon.

I'm sorry.

[Voice]

[showchoirstar]

Perhaps it takes longer because she is an Angel. They might be more complicated.

[Voice]

[buntails]

Maybe.

Do you want to wait for her together?

[Voice]

[showchoirstar]

There is no body to wait by.
