[Masaomi has been dreadfully ill since, well... since about Nagisa's party and going to look for a starfish the night before. Since then, well... he passed out there, barely made it home, and had been nursed ever since. He was slightly delirious though all this, and he relied on Saki to get him through things while working on autopilot. He wasn't able to really move much himself until about the 29th or so. After that you might have seen him going in and out of the kitchen. But had he not seen Saki as much somehow...?

This pattern lasts until he wakes up about three PM on the 3rd. He's finally feeling better, and is able to pick up the journal, flip through things, and then go check on Saki and... she's not there. He searches the apartment, is it just him or is it more empty. Finally, he goes to make a filtered message to her to see if she's around...

And. She's not. The filter breaks.

She's gone.

Gone.

He got back his cell phone a while ago - he hasn't opened it, really, but after Fray gave it back to him the only thing he used it for was that thing with the texts and "Tanaka Taro." But. He flips it open to see Saki's picture in there. His grip tightens. They never even talked and she's gone.. completely gone. He begins to shake. The rage lasts a while and he tries to calm down enough to make a little post saying she's gone. and finally... two hours later, he thinks he is]

[Voice]

Everyone. Ah, I - I... [...No, he can't do it. He can't be calm]

Son of bitch! No! [And then he throws the cell phone clean across the room. It hits the wall with a loud sound - it's not broke, not quite, but the battery pops out of the back and the screen cracks. But who cares. Now, now? His voice is pained beyond anything people have heard in Luceti since about when Mikado was sent home, but this pain is different - Mikado's was cold fury, this one is erratic fury and sorrow and... well yeah]

Why now?! [Voice break] Why- dammit, [He grits his teeth] Dammit!

[...okay, so the talking is back on her, then.]

Do you think you'll be staying with him long?

Ah. I... think I might go for a mission.

[Well, that's not good. All she needs is an emotional Masaomi out in a situation where his life could be in danger and he'd need all his wits about him and this is entirely unfair.]

Did they contact you?

No. I mean... I'll sign up for it.

[Lightly. Emotionless. Something simple. Something to not think]

[Frown.]

Are you sure that's a good idea?

I think so, right...?

I just mean... your concentration might not be too great right now.

Then, maybe something simple?

They don't always let you pick what you're doing.

Don't they? I thought the system was to pick... ah, oh well.

...what kind of mission were you thinking of going on?

Something simple, like moving boxes.

[Are we there yet]

Well... maybe that wouldn't be too bad.

[Sure, they can be almost there.]

That's the house.
