✘ Round 4 | [Audio]

[glacius]

[It's time for someone who rarely accesses the network to rear his head again, driven to desperation as the days have ticked by and he's failed to find even a trace of one of his closest friends. That being said when Glacius speaks there's an uncharacteristic urgency tinting his voice, worry bubbling just underneath the surface.] Kate Galloway. Has--has anyone seen or heard from her recently?

[Realizing that in his haste to get to the point he's left out some details, he dials it back a bit:] She's, ah, a human woman. Brightly-colored hair. Worked at the clinic, primarily. I... haven't seen a trace of her ever since the masquerade and...

... Please. [His voice finally wavers noticeably, resignation clashing up against his innate tendency to hope again hope. This can't be how it goes.] I need someone to tell me she's still here.

Ah, well, then that's just basic decency. I deserve no praise for that.

[ glacius pls ]

Agreed. [ Kate was, in many ways, what Cecily has always aspired to be. ] ... I hope, if she's... really gone, then she returns to something good. Something more peaceful than this, anyway.

Sometimes decency can make all the difference, especially in a place like this. Besides, you have done much more than that for me.

[Glacius pushes a quavering sigh out of his gills, his body seeming to deflate slightly.] Yes. Me too. Though I will probably never feel good about her loss, that thought at least may come to provide some small comfort. She deserves better than this place... and no matter where she is, she will find her way.
