1st Night [Audio/Action for R29]

[togetherforever]

[Anyone who's walking through R29 might notice a ghostly-looking girl standing beside an ledge, looking as if she was going to jump. Of course, that would result in some serious injuries but she doesn't seem to mind standing there. The bandage on her knee might suggest she tried doing so but she looks fine other than the sullen look on her face. She looked almost like a statue just standing there doing nothing though.]

[Anyone passing by might get creeped out or just wonder why she's just standing there like a goddamn freak.]

[When audio feed comes on later that night, it's silent for a few moments except for some light breathing. When the sender finally decided to talk, her voice sounds distant and hesitant, as if she was going to collapse. Everything she says is basically a whisper so what she's saying might not come out clear enough.]

...Does anyone..know what this place is?

Am I...dead...or did I really find a way out...without--

[In the background, a Yamask's cry can be heard, stirring up an annoyed grumble from the quiet girl.] Sae, not now--

[Just then, sounds of an egg hatching could also be heard. Mayu gave a little "ah!" and audio cuts off from there.]

Comments

Probably somewhere where she won't be strangled

[Wait wait hold up time out what

She is crying? Why is she crying?

Reid desperately tries to review what he said. He can't detect anything... grief-inducing there. Why?

There's only one thing he's sure about, and it's that he said something wrong.]

Hey... Hey, it's okay, you don't need to cry... You're both going to be okay, alright? Just... This is a shock, I know, but take a deep breath.

Mio is a smart girl

[How dare he tell her to calm down when he doesn't know what she's crying about. Of course, Mayu can't really express her anger at him on a public feed and the fact there are other emotions holding her back. ]

[It takes a while but she eventually calms down. Somewhat. She's still a bit shaky and her face is tear-stained but at least she stopped crying, right?]

...I'm s-sorry but-- [She wipes some extra tears away.] I think I need to be alone for a while.

[She was biting her lip, trying to keep control of her emotions.] You can tell her I'm here but please, I need some time alone. I'm sorry..

[leftinbasketforfbi]

I'm... yeah, sure, absolutely. [Does she remember being strangled by her sister?]

I'll tell her you're here. Call me if you need anything. [Fuck. What's he supposed to do? What can he say?

He opts to say nothing. He gives her a sympathetic look, then reaches for the off button.] It's... nice to meet you. [And then the feed's gone.]
