text; where do we keep the lost and found around this place anyway? (forward dated to late 7/13)

Quick question, I know people are busy and there's shady stuff going down, but:

Is anyone really good at finding missing things? Or people? I'm losing a little of my mind over here, but that's not what I need found!

( With how Martin's still MIA she sort of suspects... not. )

Sollux just double checked for me. He's super good with computers, so when he says they're still on network, they're still there. Uh, whatever he usually does? Napping, reading, complaining? I don't know, we weren't supposed to meet up until earlier today.

I can't speculate much about your other friend, but maybe Caesar just got distracted by something really important?

I'd hope it's just that. I mean, it's not like it's super important, it's just not entirely like him, either? And things don't always go well when people disappear without a word around here. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have bothered everyone with worrying. Martin is still important, but, yeah.

It's okay, you're right that it's especially suspicious here, but let's not jump to the worst conclusion! I'm sure Caesar's fine.

But either way, I'll do my best and see if I can find anything out about both of them.

I'm not, really, I'm just worried! But it's fine, I'm sure, I'm just tired and it's getting to me or something silly like that. I'll take a nap, it'll be better. Be careful when asking around after Martin, okay, Lavi?

Yeah, you should! Naps are the best. Take a good nap and then you can think clearly again.

Sure, but why? Does he have a lot of enemies?

So Caesar keeps telling me! Ah, I'm not sure about that, but he does have -- a sister? Controlled by a parasite. It's not good, and the parasite's extremely violent.

He's right, I can vouch for the power of naps too.

That sounds pretty nasty. What should I look out for?

Must be a redhead thing. ;) I... look up Martin's tag on this network, if you know how? It's posted on there. I can't remember so much from the time we met.

It's a smart redhead thing! And what's that?

Alright, I'll have a look.

I'm pretty sure that's a lazy thing! And what is what? This? ;) That's a wink and a smile! It's a little face you make with text, turned on the side. Thank you! It really means a lot.

Not at all, naps are necessary! Oh I get it ;) how creative.

Hey, no problem! After saving my life, it's the least I can do for you.

I don't know, I think there's an upper limit...! It was just luck I was out there when you came back in! You're doing okay since getting out of the hospital?

Just try for yourself, you'll understand.

Yeah I'm fine now, no worries. Luck or not, I still owe you one!

I'll pass! I've had to nap way more than I like to lately anyway. If you say so! It's not like I'd have left you there. Who'd do that? (Rhetorical question!)

Yeah, that was a bit much even for me.

I was going to say, I could probably name a few. But anyway! Let's do something fun sometime.

Yeah... it's a date! Anything fun would be really great.

A date it is! I hope Caesar doesn't get jealous easy.

( She has to laugh to herself, though the sound is quiet and her lips stay curled in a smile after she falls silent. It's really difficult to imagine Caesar feeling jealous -- and pfft, as if he ever would over something silly between friends! It's actually one of the things she likes. She doubts he'd get his feathers so ruffled as to be jealous over things that didn't exist.

You know, as long as he came back okay. )

I don't think it'd ever occur to him!

You're right, he's probably too lazy. You know, I bet he just fell asleep somewhere.

Yeah, but -- sure. He's probably just fallen asleep under a desk in the library. We'll find him ten years from now, emerging from the literary abyss!

( Whatever she may think, he has it right -- it's easier to jest and make light of things, and not worry. Worry just makes her more tired than she is now. )

Exactly! So don't worry, he'll return to you at some point. Possibly all old and wrinkly.

Be still, my racing heart!

Be patient, the lazy grandpa of your heart is on his way.
