Who: opal and you!
Broadcast: text
Action: on the goldstone if you're so inclined
When: post-shuffle

[The message gets sent out fairly late at night, once she's absolutely sure. She's known about Kaito for a few weeks, but she wasn't inclined to notify everyone when it was just him departing. Now, though... In some ways, it cuts deeper when she realizes who else has left.]

if anyone was friends or whatever with aoko nakamori or kaito kuroba, they both left the fleet at some point. guess it makes sense they'd both take off within a few weeks of each other, they were kind of a package deal.

anyways, that's all i really had to say. sorry for the bad news.

[time to just be sad and mopey together.]

At least they don't have to be here without the other.

action

[robitussin]

I guess so.

[She sighs, flopping back onto their bed and looking at the ceiling.]

I just... What if they went back to - you know?

action

[experiencepoints]

Then they're saving their world.

[... it's a small comfort, but.]

action

[robitussin]

...I guess.

[a soft sigh, running a hand over her face.]

This sucks.

[experiencepoints]

[yeah, she can't say anything to that

so she'll just hug opal instead.]

action

[robitussin]

[she returns the motion, burying her face in nightingale's shoulder.]

I know you're going to say it wasn't my fault, but... I wish I could have apologized to her anyways. For - you know.

action

[experiencepoints]

[She nods, petting her hair.]

I know. But I'm going to say it anyway, because it wasn't your fault.

[noprophecies]

[there's no point in responding, but it's hard to miss the distinct slam of a door down the hallway.

. . . thanks for the heads up!]

[robitussin]

[okay but she's going to approach that noise to see what's happening??]

[noprophecies]

[there's nothing to see here, just a closed door and absolute silence behind it]

[robitussin]

[what if she knocks on the door though!!]

Uh, everything okay in there...?

[noprophecies]

[she's gonna IGNORE IT!!]

Everything is fine.

[robitussin]

[fine she will just stand outside the door and sigh!!]

Uh, other than the obvious and crazy loud slamming door just now?

[ did he mention he hates the atroma yet? ]

want some company?

[ he won't meddle if she'd rather spend time with nightingale, but seeing her really helped him when he lost margaery. ]

[robitussin]

[the reply comes a few minutes later. normally she would say no, but - it's winn.]

if that's okay

[winn]

on my way. should I bring anything? Ice cream?

[robitussin]

you don't have to do that

[winn]

I'm taking that as a yes. be there in a bit.

[ he'll just drop by the blameless to grab some of whatever flavor cisco set up in the machine first. ]

[robitussin]

i won't fight you on it i guess

see you soon

[Ah...so that's what happened to Aoko. He'd been looking for her on the planet and elsewhere, hoping she'd show up at their training sessions and yet...nothing. Silence.

This is the first time someone he's known has disappeared, but at least she went with her friends. He isn't sure if he should feel sad or not. It wasn't like Aoko knew him really. He just liked her. He'd hoped he could have learned something about the future from her.]

Thank you for telling us. I'm sorry you have lost your friends.

[robitussin]

it happens don't worry about it

were you close

text;

[ahappylie]

Not especially.

[Which is a lie. He liked Aoko a lot, but they didn't have a lot of time to get to know one another. And he also spent their entire relationship basically lying to her.]

We would spar one another. I found her to be quite special though.

[robitussin]

yeah she's pretty great

i didn't know she was learning to fight but i guess it makes sense

text;

[ahappylie]

She said she did it occasionally. I believe it was a newer hobby for her.

[One which she might or might not continue at home now, if that is where she and Kaito went.]

Were you close with them both?

text;

[robitussin]

she's pretty spunky so i can see it

yeah i guess so. we met in the last place we all were so it's been a while that we've all known each other
