[VOICE/TEXT COMBO]
[This kid's been going around banging on everyone's doors worst than the ghosts for the past few hours trying to get a manual headcount on who's on the caravan based on who went missing the night before using the list of roommates that he copied back on day eleven or so. He's accepted word of mouth from roommates and the like if they've seen their

I'll take that job.

[checks his list with papge-turning int he background]
Peck-san, right? I'll make a note.
[In hindsight, you might have wanted the dangerous job, Peck. Gau's in RAGING SERIOUSNESS AND PALADINS mode at the moment.]

[That's ok. He'll just be his usual, charming self and I'm sure Gau will respond favorably...right? Right?]
Reply
Well he doesn't sound too thrilled so far, I'll tell you that. Still in duty-fulfilling-mode, and he suspects you're going to be a hinderance in his less than charming paranoid way.]
Well...
We can meet by the entrance, then.
[Still sounds perpetually pissed.]

Hedges? Hedges...
Can I get your name, miss, to confirm who you are?
Hedges and running water...That's actually really helpful...

[You can hear him scratching off something in the background. He's actually blocking the word "ALIVE" right next to your name, but you don't need to know that.]
Uhm...I'm Meguro Gau.
[She sure sounds cheerful for a kidnapped person. He wonders for a moment if he missed her, but...hedges...no...she has to be with them, so...]

We're looking for something that may be near the ocean; some sort of garden, or....maybe a maze, from the sound of it. And we also need to be prepared for the chance of running into who or whatever took them there.
I'll help the group going out to find everybody.

Uhm...sorry, Anathama-san.
And I just got word about "big hedges" from one of the kidnapped people from last night! I'll try to find a map as soon as possible!
[Aaah~ Glory, and rescuing of helpless people, and properly organized battle plans in his notebook! It's lovely! He's already privately having little sparking happy fantasies abotu not only helping to rescue the missing people, but finding some of the missing roommates from before! Not likely, he knows, but still fantasy!bait.
Oh to be useful~♥
He adds your name to his little list, Anathama.]

And a pause.] Gau, you and your group need to be careful as well. Alright? For all we know, those creatures from before could still be lurking about the village. [You sound like such a sweet kid, don't get hurt on her.]

Fortunately, Gau can barely decipher even direct statements, so you're saved.]
Be...?
Oh don't worry about me! I'll be fine! [Okay to open up to nice book-lady? He thinks so:] As a member of Iga's Kairoushu and of the Wakachi Treason Control division, I'm definitely equipped to take on possible mosters for the good of the caravan! [he sounds so cheerful and genuinely has no idea you probably don't have a clue what any of that means.]Without the map nobody will even know where to begin, right? It has to be done! I'd gladly shoulder the risk--it's my duty as a caravan member! And there can't be many creatures ( ... )

Uhm...which group did you want to be a part of, though? Just so I can make sure I know who's where? [Sparkling ORGANIZED nerdboys, Ty Lee. You've found yourself an easy thrall...]

If you could fight, the rescue party would be okay, but it's probably dangerous since we don't know what took all those people and why. And those ghost-talking guys say the ghosts wouldn't do that.
Peck-san and I are going into the village. If you want to come, too... [Travelling into a village. With a girl. Sounds good to him. Oh yes. Poor desperate nerdboy. He doesn't sound too hopeful, does he? he's nervously trying to flatten his hair in the background.]

Well you'll have gone down fighting off hordes of monsters to save fellow caravan-members, so it'll be a good reputation worthy of respect. [He's got that tone in his voice that says that if you die, you'd BETTER die that way, mister.]
And your name? So I can keep track of who still has contact?
Reply
You do not see death the same way I do. I don't plan on dying any time soon.
Hmm, Balthier.
Reply
Well...thank you for contacting, Balthier-san. I don't know why you're so pessmistic, though. There are girls with you who aren't as upset.
[Blink. Slow dawning idea is slow.]
DO YOU KNOW SOMETHING?
