Fourteenth Firefly - [voice/action]

[Seto knew something was wrong when he woke up. Baldr had even been acting weird. So he tried to contact Lightning over the journals. She should've come home from her mission by now. Baldr was no doubt just anxious to get back to her. But when he tried to set up a filter, it instantly broke.

He knows just as much as anyone what a broken filter means, and even when someone's on a mission, something like this doesn't happen. But despite knowing he went to her house with Baldr and found that all trace of her was gone. The dog had gone around the house and sniffed about for his owner but there was nothing. Not even the clothes in her closet were there.

It was just so bare.  What he feared was true.

When he returned home, he took a minute to sit down with the dog and hug him, burying his face into his black fur as the tears threaten to ove. It hurt, knowing that yet another one of his friends was now gone. Nagisa, Terra, Kazuma and now her. Lightning being another one of those who was very important to him. Especially considering what had happened between them not too long ago. He wanted to fix them.  To fix what he had broken.

It takes him a few minutes before he finally grabs his journal and opens it up to make the annoucement. It’s been a while since he’s done something like this so for a good few seconds, there’s nothing but silence as he tries to bring himself to say those words.]


…Lightning has been sent home. [Said gently and sadly. He pets Baldr's head as he lays down beside him.]

I… don’t know if she left anything behind for anyone. I went to her house but nothing’s there. [Granted he didn’t snoop around but he felt it was wrong to do so, even though she isn’t here anymore.

He still feels like he has to be careful where he steps when it comes to her. He wanted to gain her trust back, he was slowly getting there but now… no, come now Seto, maybe she’ll come back one day. And he can try again, even start from scratch if he has to.

“Friends always see each other again.”

Right…

He isn't sure what else to say so there's a long pause before he speaks up again.]
Does anyone want to go on a walk with Baldr and I? I know it’s cold but I think he’s sad… [Seto’s no expert on dogs by any means, he’s more of a cat whisperer, but still. Maybe a walk will do him some kind of good. Seto too.

Whether anyone has decided to join him or not, a little bit after his entry goes up, Seto will be walking around the village bundled up with a big black dog at his side. He’ll be seen just about anywhere around the village so feel free to bug him!]

[It takes her a while longer; she picks up the pace when she sees Seto and the dog are already there at the fountain.]

Hello. How are you, Seto? [What a loaded question.]

I'm well enough. Oh, hello there. [The dog gets a few good pats.] Where would you like to walk?

I am rarely cold. My village is buried in snow almost all year. [Hmm. A long walk or a short one? It probably depends on how cold he gets.] Why don't we go south along the river, then?

I like the summer just as well, and I do get cold. It just takes a little longer.

[If the dog does any of that enthusiastic yanking along business she'll have to have a Talk with it.]
frost_jewel: (just as planned)

We don't have Christmas on my world, but it does make for an excellent advantage in a snowball fight. [The one thing at which she could consistently beat the boys, even without cheating.]

That's quite the well-behaved dog.

I like to think so. There were many in my childhood.

Most dogs I was acquainted with were rowdy on walks like this.

Never have one against my friend Kurt. He cheats. [Her sly grin indicates that she thinks it's endearing and doesn't usually mind.] You might be better at something else in the snow instead. Sledding?

He can warp away and appear somewhere else. It is quite hard to hit him.

[Seto has never been sledding? They'll have to find a suitable hill.] You ride a special piece of wood down a hill covered in snow. It's a lot of fun.

Just once. I think I got lucky. And of course we can go sledding, we just need to find a proper sled first.

It probably will. We can look, after this walk if you'd like.
