You haven't seen Sholmes or Yoo Joonhyuk anywhere today, have you? I haven't seen Sholmes since last night and I was trying to find Yoo Joonhyuk this morning.

[ Having had this happen before... He sounds tired. Which, yeah, he literally is at this point. ]

[It doesn't take a Dolorian polymath to see where this is going.]

Okay...

[He takes a slow, steady breath. Keeping his composure.]

That's bad. But we're going to find them.

[ That's enough to answer his question, too. He runs a hand through his hair, frustrated. ]

If it's like the other time, they won't be back for a number of hours. Or... not until tomorrow.

[ He swallows hard. Even if Sholmes has been through something hellish already doesn't mean it's okay for him to do it again. ]

Best we can do is be prepared. I know Sholmes didn't just wander off... he never came back to the room last night. He's been staying with Diluc and me.

I'm sure you're right. And we will be prepared.

In the meantime... You haven't slept, have you?

...No. Not really. I was too anxious to sleep.

[voltadomar]

You should get some. If you don't want to go back to the room, you can use mine.

You're going to need your strength tonight.

[ He thinks about that offer and sighs. ]

You're right. Would you make sure to get me up in a few hours? I wouldn't want to arrive too late. I have an item that could help someone, to save the Watchers some strength.

[voltadomar]

[He seems to do a little mental math, and then nods.]

I won't let you be late.

[ There's some tension that releases some his shoulders at that. ]

Thank you, Kim. You've been such a good friend to me. I'm grateful.

[voltadomar]

[He puts a hand on Kotetsu's back and starts leading him towards his room.]

It's nothing. I...

I think of you as a good friend, too. And this is the only way I can think of to help.

[ He gives him a tired smile at that, letting himself be lead along. ]

It helps a lot. This way I don't have to worry about missing them coming back. It means a lot having a place to rest.
