Who: a tiny
Broadcast: voice
Action: on the pathstone!
When: 9/16
[the voice that comes through the feed sounds young and very frightened. she trips over her words and stutters, nervous, speaking very quickly. she's wandering a corridor on the pathstone, pacing rapidly after leaving the room she woke up in, and the sound of her hurried footsteps can be heard in the background.]
Hello? I-I'm sorry. I know I'm not supposed to talk to strangers. But I think I'm lost... Um, really lost. I don't remember how I got here at all, and I tried my dad's phone number but it isn't working.
[a pause. breathing in, breathing out. it doesn't make her sound more calm.]
I don't really know who I'm talking to, but if you can help me get home - I'm really scared. Um, my name is Natalie, I...
[she trails off, and there's a pause as she walks past a window for the first time, looks out into the vast array of stars and blackness out there.]
No way—
[she fumbles with the communicator for a moment, panicked, before the feed abruptly stops.
ooc: natalie/opal is being affected by an age down augment glitch! she'll be younger for about a week.]

["Soon" ends up being half an hour or so, since a detour to the Iskaulit was required, but at some joint he'll be exploring the Huntress with a bag in hand, looking for her.]

[true to her word, she's there when he comes, glancing over at him and giving a tentative wave.]
Um, hi... Kirito?

[Have a little wave. He offers the bag out to her- inside she'll find a handful of hopefully age-appropriate books, a deck of cards, some paper and pencils/markers from the art room, and in a smaller bag, a handful of cookies.]
action;
You even brought me cookies!

[Admittedly toeing too close to the line of taking things from strangers, but even so, he's glad that he got her to smile. Poor kid's had a rough day.]

Do you want to play that?
