USER #23FBC5 - Missing Friend

Apologies, cause I'm still getting used to this system

I thought I'd use it to ask a question

My name is Rex, by the way. Since this thing doesn't show our names, and I don't really care about being anonymous or not
Has anyone noticed people going missing?
I had a friend, a friend from my home, and we were both here together but now any trace of her seems to have disappeared

I thought maybe she just went off exploring or something, but she's not the type to be so careless...she would've at least left a note or something
It worries me because I have no real way of knowing if she found a way back home or if something took her or worse.

I don't mean to be such a downer, but if anyone has any information, I admit I'm a little bit desperate

Thanks

Rex

Missing? Can't say I have... What did she look like? When and where did you last see where?

we were talking at the end of one of those broken bridges

after that she just vanished.

kinda tall, black hair, she wears a military looking uniform most of the time

Vanished?? As in, she walked away? Or did she actually disappear in front of you??

nah nah, I just never saw her again after that

We split up and she hasn't been around for...at least a week

...Are you certain you arrived together?

[ Please, don't tell him this can happen here, too... ]

absolutely. We met up after I got out of the well, and one day, she was just...gone.

Well, I don't recall anyone with that description around, but if no one else speaks up, we could set up a search party for her.

What is her name, and would she know anyone else here?

I suppose so...she can handle herself, so I'm not too worried but...

How does a person just disappear? Who might it happen to next?

It's not right. It's unnerving

Her name is Morag. I dunno if she made any other friends while she was here, so...

Unfortunately, I don't believe we crossed paths...

If she wandered into the forest alone, there's a possibility she might have gotten lost. Or attacked, I suppose, given what I've heard of monsters roaming about.

I mean, we all did just kind of appear here, right? Maybe... she was sent home?

The forest is pretty scary, it gives me this weird sense that I'm being watched...not to mention how thick it gets

Is anyone that you know from your home here with you?

That'd be the best case scenario...

Maybe whoever put us here didn't like her...?

Anyone stupid enough to venture into the forest deserves a scare or two.

But, yes.

Personally, I'd rather they didn't up and vanish, themselves. They have this terrible habit of acting recklessly without a thought to those others it might affect.

hey! it wasn't stupid! I had to explore my surroundings!

You're pretty lucky then, make sure you keep an eye on them, then...I'd hate for you to feel the way i feel right now

Its pretty crummy

Can't say for certain... I'll definitely keep an eye out, however.

thanks, i really do appreciate it

What's your name?

do you have a description?
where was she seen last and are there any places she prefers going to?

i'm not sure how much help i'll be but i'll help you look

kinda tall, black hair, usually wears a military type looking outfit...

I'm not sure what kind of place she prefers around her, she's pretty solitary most of the time

I'd really appreciate the help, honestly! What's your name?

Caramia. Nice to meet you.

Sounds kind of like a candy! Never heard a name like that before

Are you all by yourself here?

You're probably thinking of "caramel". My name derives from Italian, however, so that's probably why?

My best friend appeared here with me, sadly. Hopefully, if your friend really did appear back home, I can only hope the same will happen for him, if that's the case.

Edited 2018-03-31 04:49 (UTC)

I'm familiar enough with the feeling to know that "crummy" is a generous descriptor.

If I see your friend, I'll try to let them know that they've been missed.

Italian? Never heard of it, honestly! We do have caramel, though

What do you mean "sadly", though? Isn't it better to be with your friends instead of apart?

crummy is the worst I'll let myself feel, if i get too down in the dumps I'll just be useless, and that wouldn't be any good for me or morag

I really appreciate that

Don't think i caught your name

Even if it takes years? Decades? By that point you might very well never see her again.

I would be surprised if you had caught my name, given that I hadn't offered it.

that's exactly the grim kind of thinking I'm tryin to avoid! Haha....

That's because it was my own roundabout way of askin for it!

And perhaps if you had asked outright, I might have given it to you! What a shame.

In any case, that's the reality you'll have to face: either you find her, or you don't. The piece that you control is whether you intend to continue searching, even long after the chances have dwindled to mere fractions. Is she important enough to you to warrant the trouble? Would it be some sense of obligation that spurs you on?

Or would you cut your losses, and allow her to become little more than a memory turned sour?

Well... this place isn't exactly what I'd call a great vacation. It's cold, dull, and really eerie. And home was... well, it was home.

I'm happy we're together, don't get me wrong, but I'd rather him be safe at home than here where I'm not entirely sure what's going to happen...

If you found our your friend was home rather than just lost, then wouldn't you be happy...?

I'd rather we all be together. I don't think my friends would be able to sleep well knowing I was out here. I think that they would want to come after me and help me, so...If I had their help, I'd be very grateful for it, and we could all find a way home together

I guess that is a bit selfish, huh?

I don't think I'd give up my friends so easily just so that they wouldn't be in the same predicament as me...i think my friends would want to share the burden, that's all

[boy he is becoming a lot less friendly the longer this conversation goes on.]

that's...a tough question to answer. I dunno if i even have one.

But i dont plan on givin up, thats for sure. Maybe i wont be able to find her, but maybe i can figure out what happened, yeah?

So that's what I'll do

That's not selfish at all. I completely agree, in all honesty, and I think it's a good way to look at it.

In a way, I'd be really lonely without him here. He's always been there, and so not having him be would be strange.

That said, the fact that I cannot guarantee his safety scares me more than being alone does.

[ Don't take it poorly, Rex, he just gets Like This sometimes. Fortunately, he picked the right answer! ]

Hope is a hell of a thing, isn't it?

Best of luck.

I'm sure he must feel the same way, right? Or at least similarly

You can't guarantee his safety, and he can't guarantee yours, but i guarantee you're both a lot safer together than split apart

friends keep each other safe. I'm sure your friend would rather have the chance to keep you safe than to be back home not even knowing

You don't wanna take somethin like that for granted

to you too, then

we're all in this together, ya know

I wouldn't know.

Regardless, it's best not to chatter about him, we have your friend to find. That takes priority. Would she wonder out into the forest?

Maybe...but like i said, she isn't the type to run off and do something dangerous without being extra careful...she would've left a note or told someone if she had plans on doing something dangerous

Which means wherever she went, i dont think she expected to go there

got it
do you have a name for her too? or do i need to figure that out by myself?

[Well..... she hasn't even made mention of how she's going to help, so... it should be okay, right?]

i'm shiho

shiho?

you shoulda led with that! It's me, Rex, from the well

Her name is morag, if you happen across her

morag got it

and i know
but that's such a strange way to lead

hey rex
it's me shiho

let me keep an air of mystery okay

haha, I think you're much more strange for wanting to be so mysterious!

you're pretty funny, Shiho!

your friend is gone? is this the same friend that's also your weapon?

this is kaoru, by the way.

it's not funny!

being mysterious is a part of my charm
