[ishere]

Who: Tadashi Hamada & Everyone
Broadcast: Voice only - fleetwide
Action: On the Bishop.
When: Shortly after this week's shuffle.

[ tadashi isn't entirely sure what he'd expected. more pomp and circumstance, maybe, or just some sort of warning - which was stupid. they hadn't received anything like that when honey lemon arrived or disappeared; why should he expect anything different now?

still, it takes him a few minutes to let the reality of the situation sink in, and he takes an uneasy breath before grabbing his communicator. his voice is uncharacteristically flat, monotone. ]

Hey, everyone. Uh - Hiro's gone. So - [ what does he even say here. ] - if you were working with him on any projects, or - just come see me about them, and I'll see what I can do.

[Whatever Tadashi, the tiny horse is going to seek you out. He knows a party can't fix this, but it's in his very nature to try and help people if they're feeling down. Make them feel...something, anything. Some way to lessen the pain.

So, he'll quietly walk over to sit near him, ears folded back sadly. He liked Hiro a lot, he was a good kid. ]

I'm sorry about your brother.

[ishere]

[ he's a little surprised when the pony shows up in his lab, but he straightens up regardless, half-smiling at him. ]

Thanks. It's - he's got a lot to do at home.

[preformthisneigh]

[Sorry, Tadashi, it's literally his destiny to make people feel better, even at their worst. He wouldn't have stayed away even if he wanted to. Which he absolutely doesn't. ]

Yeah, he's got a big future ahead of him. I'm pretty sure he could change the world if he put his mind to it.

...Belth's vanished too.

[ishere]

He's going to. There's no way that he isn't.

[ tadashi's smile at cheese's comment is a little bittersweet, though. ]

Is he? Then - alright, that's not so bad.

[ he's not sure how he'd handle the heartbreak if he woke up here to find ino gone, so... maybe that's not so bad. ]

[preformthisneigh]

[Cheese nods, much more solemn than usual. He;s seen enough of people vanishing, leaving behind loved ones to know he wouldn't wish it on anyone. ]

No, it's probably for the best. Belth had a lot of people vanish home on him lately, not having Hiro around would have made that even worse.

[He looks up, expression gentle. ]

How're you holding up?

[ishere]

I'm alright. I, uh--

[ he glances at cheese, expression suddenly a little apologetic. ]

I was thinking about moving to Ino's ship. This one is great, it's just -

[ he spends most of his time there now, anyway, and with hiro gone, he can only imagine it getting worse. ]

[preformthisneigh]

[Cheese offers a small smile, he gets it, he does. ]

You wanna be with your [special somepony, but that's not the term to use here] I mean, she's important to you, I get that. You should go, nopony knows how long they have here, you gotta make the time count.
