Who: Kirito + Anyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: The Iskaulit
When: Just prior the arriving at the new planet, really

[The broadcast starts with a sudden crash, and the clattering sound of the communicator hitting the floor, bouncing a bit, then displaying a view of the blank ceiling, accented at the edges with... smoke? Yep, that is definitely some smoke. After a pause, there is a muffled curse, a cough, and finally, Kirito retrieves the machine off the floor and heads out into the hall.]

Sorry, sorry- that wasn't intentional...

...Ah, but since it's up and running, before I forget: has anyone seen a girl named Yuuki around? I haven't been able to track her down for a while. Around my age, purple hair, sometimes flies? I'd really appreciate if you can pass a message on for me.

[Someone apparently has not experienced the whole "people go home" aspect of this place yet.

Anyone venturing around the Iskaulit might bump into him doing a number of things- reconstructing a gun in one of the empty rooms, ~~moping~~ pondering things quietly in an area with a view of space, or swinging said gun around in a rather un-gun-like manner in the exercise area. He's a busy guy this week.]

What ship's she supposed to be on?

[Crap, which was it again...]

...Caprine, I think?

Have you popped over there yet?

[ james has no proper idea how people leaving works, but. :c ]

Ah...

I probably should. But I don't know anyone else there, so it might come across as kind of weird, just showing up out of nowhere.

[AKA he's shy and awkward and would rather not, if it's all the same.]

Isn't that what texting's for?

[ LOOK AT JAMES HIP TO THE MUGGLE JIVE ]

There's got to be a captain's list, yeah? I'm sure they'll be able to tell you where she is.

You think?

[Well, heck. Now he has to double-check.]

I went looking for her in the contact list, but I couldn't find her name, so I've been wondering.

[IS IT ME, IS IT MY COMMUNICATOR, IS IT BAD NEWS. Really, it's a mystery.]

You're asking the wrong person about how these things work, my friend.

[ james almost certainly forces alex to fix all the things he breaks with his, okay ]

But better safe than sorry... though maybe she went home? I've got no idea how that works, though.

That... is a possibility, admittedly. I've never had to deal with it personally before, so I'm hoping not, but...

[No contact- and no way to contact? It's the logical conclusion. He's just been dancing around it for a while.]

I'll try it out, anyway.

Mm.

[ poor kid ]

-- you can let me know if you need any company, yeah?

[...Hah...]

I must sound a bit pathetic.

Why's that?

[ with a casual shrug ]

Losing a friend's losing a friend. I miss my best mate every day.

[ the day sirius black arrives on the fleet, if any, james will be so ecstatic that it should be illegal ]

...Yeah.

[There's a lot of people he's missing back home. Not just friends, but his family, Asuna...

But Yuuki?]

Thing is, I didn't know her. But the way she acted... I should have. It kind of felt like I'd forgotten something really important, you know?

[ ... hm. ]

Did you know her from another universe, maybe? I've heard that can happen often enough, around here.

No, the future. We confirmed it- the date she remembers last from home is a few months after me.

[Which is still super weird to imagine, but what can you do.]

But you'll see her again, when you head home?

[ whenever that's supposed to be. ]

That's the theory, yeah. And the hope, I guess...

[He'd really like to not be wrong about this.]

Then you've got something to hold onto, until that happens.

[ right? right. #teamoptimism man ]

[Well, he's not wrong. Mostly.]

...Yeah. When we meet again on the other side, I'm sure we can be friends.
