Seventeenth Steal || Voice/Action if you can find her

[yattagarasu]

[ Night has fallen, and it's been hours since a certain network post consisting of CROCODILE ABUSE. Not only that, but Kay Faraday has not been sighted in any centers, restaurants, or other hang-outs. Why is that? Because she's currently sitting on a random roof, chin resting on her knees and eyes fixed on nothing in particular. But the

[On the video side of things, Johan's down here with his baby trying to figure out where she is-- Alas, it's night and it's hard.]

Kay? What is... No, where are you?

[... on the action side of things, there's a Noctowl pecking at her now.]

[action]

[overthedratini]

It was pretty bad, wasn't it?

[action]

[yattagarasu]

...

I thought it was familiar...

[action]

[overthedratini]

-- Familiar? What do you mean?

[action]

[yattagarasu]

He's the one who kidnapped me.

[action]

[overthedratini]

He's the--

You mean he's-- He was here--!?

[action]

[yattagarasu]

He was here. He was here and even then, I still couldn't find him!

[action]

[overthedratini]

That-- [what is Johan swearing-- he's about to be upset, but he shakes his head.] ... But now you know he's close. You'll get him.

Are you okay?

[action]

[yattagarasu]

That's only if he stays, and he could have left for Azalea already-- especially if he's after badges. I can't--

[ Kay takes a deep breath, about to say yes, but then their talk comes to mind, and then the taunting, and with that, the memories. Before she knows it, she's practically digging her fingers into the roof's shingles and shaking her head back and forth. ]

[action]

[overthedratini]

Kay...! Kay!

[As soon as she starts, he's hugging her and pulling her close.] It's okay--! It's over now, Kay--!!

[action]

[yattagarasu]

It's not!! [ Kay's still shaking her head, struggling a bit without quite realizing it. ] He said we weren't through with each other, that what he was doing, was like-- like stepping on a bug, and I-- what am I supposed to--?!

[action]

[overthedratini]

[in that case, he'll tighten his grip so he can hold her steady-- or as steady as he can like this.] You step on him! You show him he's wrong and you get him to justice! This is just what he wants, Kay...!

[action]

[yattagarasu]

[ at that, she's stopping. Kind of. She's still shaking. ]

[action]

[overthedratini]

[he'll keep holding her] You'll be okay, and you'll show him he didn't win. That he can never win.

[action]

[yattagarasu]

[ it's almost instinctive now to reach for him; it's something she doesn't have to think about, and she's grateful for that right now. ]

I don't know how to fight someone who's already gotten into my head...

[action]

[overthedratini]

[not that he knows what's going through her head, but with her there, he's just as grateful to be there and be able to hold her and keep her away from anything right now.]

... [that actually sounds a little familiar] Have guards.
