Who: Mikleo + OTA
Broadcast: Voice
Action: Huntress + Iskaulit
When: Today
( a. huntress )
[This place sure is good at getting you complacent and then slamming the door in your face. Mikleo's having a perfectly normal day, playing post-battle catch-up in his room, when Sorey tracks him down to give him the bad news. After that the rest of the day is a write-off; he just can't find the energy to focus on anything but the gut-wrenching loss. Dezel's gone. More than gone home, but rather...
It's hard to think about it, but there's no avoiding the truth. It's something he's been dreading for a long time now- something that's come up in discussions about Zaveid and Eizen. In just a moment, without warning, it could all be over.
Speaking of Zaveid... when he can bring himself to leave Sorey's side, that's his next stop. It'd feel wrong to do this any way but in person.]
( b. voice )
I'm sorry to be the bearer of more bad news- we've had more than our share recently. For those who knew him, Dezel is no longer with us in the fleet.
...while I can't imagine he'd ask for it, if you're so inclined... offer up a prayer in his name. It's how our kind draws strength.
( c. iskaulit )
[Once the hardest parts are done, he starts doing the busy work, so no one else will have to. Step one is to gather up all the creatures Dezel's collected from various planets - the fish, slugs, and lizards - and carry them over to the Iskaulit. The fish go to his water tank, and for a while he watches them flutter about contentedly in their new home amidst the sea greens. After that, he ventures to Edna's mountain to see if they might find a home in all the nature there, though only with Edna's permission. Finally he spends a few hours in the interfaith center, curled up against the seraph altar, idly spinning about the pinwheel. During his whole Iskaulit visit, he's wearing a quasi-replica of Dezel's hat. It takes him a while to get himself home again.]

[Eleanor hadn't been close with Dezel, but she had met him. It was always sad to see somebody go home, and she could tell it was already beginning to effect Mikleo.]
no subject
[or, well, probably not. it's Dezel, after all- he's more like to just huff and brush it off like it's unnecessary, keeping whatever true thoughts he might have to himself. that's more his style.]
no subject
[She can't stop from worrying. Seeing somebody go home is always a bittersweet experience, and while she never asked for the full story, it's clear that there was always something important about Dezel.]
no subject
[it's not quite so simple as "we'll see him when we go back" in this case, and that's why it hurts.]
no subject
[Eleanor might not understand the entire situation, but she's no stranger to losing people. It's not hard to imagine what Mikleo and the others might be going through.]
If there's anything, anything at all, we can do, please let us know. I know we're not from the same time, but we're still comrades. We're still here for you.
no subject
[it's sort of like being friends with other seraphim- many of them are from a thousand years ago, too. Though the experience is awfully different.]
It's just- it's difficult to talk about.
