... It's so big. [ but at least she's whispering this. ]
[ And she nods, ambling inside of the room, leaving her things in the corner and just kind of... flopping over on the bed. Okay, so maybe she's still worn out. ]
[ She'll mumble a little, but then instinctively curl up even more-- yeah, she's down for the count. ]
[Aww, there she goes, all cozy and tucked up. He'll tuck her up some more, lay another blanket lightly over that and makes sure that she's comfortable before he lightly smooths a hand over her head before going to step back quietly from the bed, from the room...]
Elza, did you receive a strange message?
[Is he alone in this? What happened.] Something from Fiona appeared in mine! It had her face! But there's no way that my sister would...
It just.
What the hell is going on here? [Please, please talk your captain down from the metaphoric ledge that he is out on here okay?]

[Just when he was about to contact him about this, look at how speedy Nesso is... Elza's half-impressed by it, but he manages not to look too panicked. He knows Nesso's very impassioned when it comes to his sister...]
Ah, I received something too. Also from your sister. [...] I didn't really understand what it was about.
But Nesso, it can't be her. Relax and take a breath for a moment.

[He's like lightning, okay? He checked his CereVice on his break at work and THIS IS WHAT HE FOUND. That's why he may look shirtless with lingering bodyglitter shh. But no time for that!]
From Fiona as well? What did yours say?
[Relax? This is no time to relax! Either someone has his sister kidnapped or is besmirching her name! Or something. But no okay he does take a deep breath now, trying to calm himself.] It can't be her...
[But part of him wants it to be, to think that she may be somewhere where they could rescue her.]

[--is his captain sparkly]
Uh... something about masks and... gimps? [If he looks and sounds confused yeah no he is. Definitely.] Either way, of course it isn't her.
[His tone is firm.]
If she was here, she'd contact you normally right away, don't you think?

[Nesso doesn't know what that is but he doesn't like the sound of it at all.]
She would were she able! But this is all so strange, she could be lost. Or someone could be holding her against her will!
[Because that's sort of Fiona's luck lately, let's just face it. And Nesso is fully in worst-case-scenario mode right now.]

[Thank goodness that Elza is a calming force really. He needs someone to keep their head right now since he's failing at that so spectacularly.]
Who she is... no. But she's a young, impressionable girl. [And there are bad people who'd take advantage of that everywhere!
But he frowns.] I have described her to many people, They assured me they'd tell me if they caught sight of her.

She's also your sister, Nesso. I'm sure you've already warned her about the kinds of people out there, haven't you?
[Elza gives him a wry smile.]
Then let's believe in them for now. I don't believe that she's here. There's little chance we wouldn't have heard about it if she was.

Of course. But she's never left her tower at all until recently... the world is...
[Okay. Deep breath. Elza is right. Thank heavens for Elza.]
You're right. I'm sure you're right. But even seeing her face... this is all such a mess, Elza.

You're right. I'm sure you're right. But even seeing her face... this is all such a mess, Elza.
...I know, partner. It's all right.
[He'd give his shoulder a reassuring squeeze if he could, but as it is he just smiles wryly at him. He wants to be more reassuring than he thinks he is, for Nesso's sake.]
But we'll find our way back, and you'll see her again.

[His shoulder is covered in body glitter right now anyway, so it's for the best. But he appreciates Elza's calm, his tone, that smile. He'll take what reassurance he can from it.]
We have to. For Fiona, but... Weblin is our home as well. We all need to find the way back to where we belong.

[Elza you are really a force for good in his life right now, so ignore that shoulder shh it's fine. He takes another breath to steady himself, ducking his head, grateful.]
We will. I'll try to keep my faith in that.
[Elza being here to talk about it is helpful.] Thank you, Elza.
We will. I'll try to keep my faith in that.
[Elza being here to talk about it is helpful.] Thank you, Elza.
[Elza seems to soften at the thanks, shaking his head slightly. This is what he does. He's here if Nesso needs him... that's what he wants to do all of the time. He's aware that he doesn't have much driving him in life other than his determination to be of help for Nesso, but for now that's not a true problem.]
You're welcome, Nesso. You coming back soon? Maybe we can go out, have a look around if you want and then grab a drink.
[The first is to reassure him, the second... to reassure him more.]

[He's a good friend, too good. Nesso really doesn't know what he would do without him, as much as he's joked about that before. It's true.]
All right. And yes. I'll be on my way soon. We can do that, if you're willing. I'd appreciate it.
[Looking. Drinking. Both those things. Especially the latter once it becomes clear that the former will not turn out to be fruitful.]

Elza?
[Goodness, this is a fair deal more awkward than the other messages she sent out. How does she explain her situation and reasoning to someone who's a knight and openly spoke with her about politics?]
Forgive me for seeking you out again so soon after our initial meeting - but I'm afraid there is a matter I must speak with you about....

[ . . . . well, his exhaustion doesn't escape her. He does seem rather fatigued and so she can't help but feel a bit guilty still calling upon him but....]
Natalia. [She gently reminds him-] Just Natalia.
Thank you for being understanding. I imagine it very rude of me to ask something of you already, but I have a request.
