*an order requesting her to immediately head to the Front Lines*
*it is signed by Misc*
…
@misc-plot-device?
...
What the fuck...
This wasn’t you then?
Why would I send that...
Exactly what I figured. This is either a prank, or someone’s attempting to kill us.
I'd say the first one... otherwise wouldn't they sign it to someone who'd... be able to give that order?
We should ask Carmilla… or Navede.
Yeah, good idea...
*calls them both*
Carmilla’s… not being very helpful, but Navede said he’ll ask the President.
Navede's been... weird ever since he got that job. He... looks like he's constantly guilty...
You noticed that too?
Yeah... he should be proud and yet... guilt, shame...
Have you… asked her about it?
Not yet, no... been a bit busy what with... the raptors getting slaughtered
Right
I... just feel so bad for them and their families...
It’s horrible. Before this started, I never would have believed…
Its just... so unfair
None of them deserved any of this
*sighs dejectedly* Hope Rovel's ok...
I’m worried about xem
Xe... doesn't handle this kind of thing well...
Can’t we do something to help?
Perhaps we should talk to Clearan...
We can’t leave xem alone
Isn't xe in the hot tub down in the gym anyway... xe is alone.
Maybe you should be there, just in case
Not you?
I could, too. I just… want some way to help now, not… next time, maybe.
Oh Nya... you were always like this
You've no idea how much I've missed you
Isn’t there some fortress I could rescue xem from? How can I save xem from xir own mind?
Its always so hard... isn't it...
I don’t care how hard it is! But I don’t want to make it worse
That's why its hard...
You… know this better… what can help?
Xe needs an anchor... something for xir to hold onto...
A hug?
If only it were that easy
Is it anyone, or just Lilith?
Anyone...
It's like... drowning, its like you're drowning and you need someone to pull you out... and keep you from being swept away again until you can get to shore...
And xe’s in the hot tub?
*runs downstairs*
Yeah... what's that got to do with...
Oh...
Oh
*pulls xem out*
*xir head wasn't underwater*
*A large growth on xir chest is visible*
It’s okay, xe’s breathing!
What’s that?
*runs a hand warily along it*
Weird...
Call Clearan.
@lady-clearan!
*fusses over xem*
*urgh* What's going on...
Rovel! We thought you were drowning
No... I said I installed a thing to prevent that...
Wait... Nyardethal?
It's... me... Lilith.
Lilith? Then… where’s Rovel? And what’s this lump thing?
Rovel's... still resting...
Xe doesn't want to face the world... not now Yanis is...
The lump is... me
But xe’s… okay?
Also, what?
Xe's... as okay as xe can be...
Long story...
*falls asleep again*
Lilith? Lilith!
