Characters: Signless - and OPEN! (and hopefully Condesce and Psiioniic~)
Setting: On the dorm levels.
Format: I'll follow your lead
Summary: Signless is working his way through the dormitory, searching for his best friend. He might encounter your character!
Warnings: Probable violence.

Signless had waited for two days.

Two days he had waited, searched, and worried. He hadn't slept in that time.

He had roamed the hallways, searched the other levels as best he could, and nearly gotten himself killed in the forest.

Now he was done. Someone had stolen Psiioniic, and whoever they were, they had to be hiding. And he was going to find them.

He moved methodically down the hallways of the dormitories, banging on each door until it was opened, or taking a sickle to the knob to break in. No matter what he had to do, he was going to find Psiioniic.

And when he found the douchebag who had hurt his friend, he was going to make them pay.

Her eyes widened, then were abruptly turned toward the ground. It was... a nice thought, although also a concerning one. Still, she couldn't help a bashful smile.

She opened her mouth to say, 'of course', but that last bit had her shutting it with a frown. Someone dangerous.... There didn't seem to be very many people like that; sure, there were some intimidating people, and their captors/rescuers were definitely enigmas, but... the only people she knew for sure had any chance of being dangerous had no connection to Ψiioniic (that she was aware of). However, she couldn't help remembering something he'd mentioned when they'd spoken, and it gave her a sudden rush of guilt. Belatedly, she finished the, "Of course." One of her closed hands came up to rest near her mouth. "...He mentioned someone called 'Her Imperial Condescension' when we spoke. I'd never heard of anyone like that, and I didn't think she was here, but-- it does seem like a lot of people from your world have been coming here." And goodness would she feel bad if she found out she'd been wrong. "It couldn't have anything to do with her, could it...?" That was more a hope than a question.

Signless gritted his teeth. "I certainly hope not," he said, the words coming out in a low rumble as he growled in the back of his throat. If the Condesce were here, how would Psiioniic deal with it? Would he regress completely? Would Signless lose him, forever?

"But even if Condesce isn't here, there are other people out there who aren't that different. I've already had to fight one off of him, and he could have come back, or it could be someone else," he said, trying to set the question aside. Please don't be here. Just, don't let her be right about that.

One person like that already...? It wasn't surprising, exactly, but it sent a very uncomfortable chill down her spine. If anything, it meant that she was right to keep her own abilities out of public knowledge. Very right. Had she not been distracted, she would have been quite grateful that she had yet to meet anyone like that here. The frown on her face seemed to have no intentions of leaving any time soon. "...Then, I hope you find him soon." It went without saying, but saying it seemed necessary. She was curious about this Condesce, to tell the truth, but it did not seem like something she should ask about, and she was quickly realizing that she was probably taking up valuable time. "If there's anything I can do to help, just ask."

He looked at her, then smiled genuinely, and a little softly. "Thanks," he said. "If you see him, tell him I'm looking for him, okay? Try to get him to go back to the room, or something, at least."

"I'm Signless, by the way," he added.

The smile was unexpected and went unreturned for a brief moment before she attempted something like it. "Alright, Signless. I'll let you know. My name is Naminé. It's... nice to meet you." Although perhaps it would be nicer under other circumstances. She kind of wanted to ask if he was the friend who'd died but was here anyway, but it seemed like a distraction that could certainly wait for later, once Ψiioniic was safe.

He was relieved when she finally returned the smile, feeling that hopefully, he had reassured her after scaring her so badly. "It's good to meet you, Namine," he said, and gave her a wave. "I'd better go keep looking. But thanks."

She waved back. "Of course. Good luck...!"
