I'm looking for my cousin, he disappeared from our apartment yesterday.

He's very sick and needs looking after.

[He types and erases 'I'm worried' several times before settling on what to say.]

I'm very concerned about his well-being, please let me know if you've seen him.

His name is Lalli. He's got pale eyes and ash blond hair to about his jaw. Very skinny and kind of short. He'll probably fight you if you try to touch him.

I have not seen anyone matching that description, but I will look for you.

[scowlish]

Thank you. He isn't capable of taking care of himself right now.

Be careful though. He probably has his knife.

[arcadedragon]

That is fine. I have swords.

[scowlish]

If you hurt him I'll make you regret it.

[arcadedragon]

That is not what I meant. I will not harm him.

But I can take care of myself.

[scowlish]

Okay.

He's the only family I have left.

[arcadedragon]

It is fortunate you are here with each other. Family should stay together.

[scowlish]

I agree. Things can be difficult, but I need my family.

[arcadedragon]

Where are you should I find him?

I'm not sure we have met, I'm Genji.

[scowlish]

I'm going to be out looking, myself. But we live in Quad 8, and if I'm not there, then Reynir will be. He's tall, with a long red braid, and I trust him to take Lalli if I'm away.

[arcadedragon]

Okay. I know Reynir.

Do you know where Lalli might have gone? Or is he sick enough to be delirious?

[scowlish]

Ah.

I've checked his usual spots already, but he's delirious. When he's not feeling well he tends to hide, though. Small places, confined.

[arcadedragon]

That could be anywhere. I'll keep looking though.

after cho's message

[scowlish]

No need. Someone's told me they have him but won't tell me where.

[arcadedragon]

Are they holding him hostage?

[scowlish]

Not exactly hostage, but she's refusing to let me verify that he's alright.

[arcadedragon]

I'll find him.

After the Cho/Lalli/Cole thread

[arcadedragon]

I have found him and he wishes to see you. Where are you? I'll take you to him.

[scowlish]

At my apartment still. But I'll meet you wherever if it means I'll get there faster.

[arcadedragon]

I'll come to you.

He seems to be fine. There's a strange woman with him, but she doesn't seem to be harming him.

[He's not going to mention the man with the knives who'd appeared out of nowhere for reasons that Genji still doesn't understand. He doesn't know why Cho was there in the first place, nor what Cole was upset about, but the important part is that Lalli was coherent and speaking and seemed to be okay.

Genji darts down to where Onni said he would be, ready to take him there.]
