[ Someone is doing their best to not look upset, stiff upper lip right? It's not working all that well. Eddie should be happy he survived through the invasion and all, but there's more pressing things on his mind right now.]

My friend Bill is missing. He's a bit taller than me, looks smart and talks with a stutter. Has anyone seen or heard from him?

[ No one has explained the concept of people going home yet, so the idea the friend he looks up to has just vanished is unfathomable.]

If anyone sees him please tell him he's an asshole and I'm going to kill him for this.

[Jo looks a little curious and rather serious.]

Is his name still on the list?

[strayblade]

Have you looked around for him?

[hellosirs]

When's the last time you saw your friend? If they haven't been sent back home - that happens sometimes - I might be able to track them down.

[roseofthetyrells]

I haven't seen Bill in quite a while. Where have you tried looking for him?

[thelastjoy]

Met a kid goin' by that a few weeks back, but I haven't seen 'im in a while. Guess you were one of the folks he was lookin' for. Sorry. But maybe he's just avoidin' you 'cause you're sayin' stuff 'bout how you're gonna kill 'im.

[Kravitz is not unkind, but tact is not his strong suit.]

It's a likely possibility that he has been returned to the place he came from.

[multivitamins]

[ Sorry Jo, have the blankest of looks.]

What list?

video;

[multivitamins]

Yeah of course and he's not answering any messages either. Bill's new here so anything could have happened, I mean there's even monsters in the lake.

[multivitamins]

A short while ago. It's like he's just vanished into thin air.

Wait, people can get sent home?

[multivitamins]

Literally everywhere.

[ Eddie no, that's not how that word is used.]

He's not the kind to just hide or not contact anyone, you know?

voice;

[multivitamins]

You're wrong, he wouldn't avoid us because of that. We're best friends and we've been through more shit than anyone would believe. Jeez.

[multivitamins]

[ Luckily it's the kind of directness that can be appreciated.]

Hmm, I didn't know people could be returned back home. Does it happen often?

[ Will has finally sort of worked out how to use this phone, though after seeing some of the posts so far it's sort of just making this place seem even scarier. ]

I haven't seen anyone like that, sorry. I could help you look though?

[hellosirs]

Yeah, it happens sometimes. Usually, if their name isn't on the contact list on your phone, that's a good indication that they've gone back.

[roseofthetyrells]

Was he still here when the Null attacked?

[she considers her next words carefully]

Is it possible that he's been sent home?

voice;

[thelastjoy]

Jeez, yourself. Not like I can read your mind and know how you two are. [Grumble, grumble.] 'm tryin' to give you a reason not to worry.

[knifecollecting]

The contact list.

video;

[multivitamins]

[ Looks around as if making sure no-one is listening in. Hell, he even lowers his voice a little.]

There's a contact list?

[multivitamins]

I really hope he got to go home and didn't get eaten by a stray Null. Though I don't know what contact list you're talking about, we don't have these things back home so I didn't know there was one...

[multivitamins]

Yes, I don't think the Null got him because we'd know. I don't know how we'd know but we'd know.

[ Pauses.]

Maybe? But it's not like he's left a note?

voice;

[multivitamins]

I'd be more worried if he was avoiding because Bill's not like that really. [ Shrugs.] People in this place don't just vanish do they?

video;

[multivitamins]

[ Oh hey a new kid that's not someone Eddie knows. You can bet your bottom dollar there's curiosity on Eddie's face as he answers.]

Shit. It's like he vanished into thin air. And okay. Though who're you?

video;

[strayblade]

Then that's where I'll search.

[once she finds the lake. naoto is also new.]

[roseofthetyrells]

[she nods] And he wasn't on their list, so they'd have no reason to target him.

[she pauses as well]

I've--well, I've heard that this place can be cruel when it sends someone home. They can't leave a note or a memento, they're just. Taken.

[knifecollecting]

Yeah, it's on the phone.
