[Voice/Action] | Early in the morning

[semper_cogitans]

[Robert rises early, as he usually does, in his own familiar apartment (- far below somebody of his standards, his parents always said -). At first he doesn't think there's anything wrong - but, wait... well, come to think of it, he hadn't organized it quite like that, had he? And where was his latest business report on magitechnology? Hadn't he taken it home last evening? Or his prototype notes, or the mathematics coursework he'd been preparing?

More importantly, where the hell is his pseudo-daughter?

After a few moments he takes out his journal and speaks tersely into it, directing it towards both a certain headmaster and his brother, and the daughter of said brother.]

Rupert, Helios... I can't find Vivi. She's up and entirely disappeared.

Vivi? Where are you?

[Somewhat irritably, despite the fear in his voice:] Is this another one of those bloody natural Shifts again? I hope the Malnosso get it under control soon enough.

[If and when he gets any word (or even before then) he'll be out searching for wherever Vivi might be.

[YOU LOST VIVI!? Oh wait, he lost himself this morning. Guess Vash can't blame you for losing someone else.]

Where have you checked so far? [He'll look everywhere else!]

[Voice/Action]

[semper_cogitans]

[Tersely:] I've checked my own apartment - you remember where that is, right? [There's enough gossip about me for it to be obvious.] If not, it is the first room on the first floor of Community Building Three...

... I've also checked the floor, but she isn't anywhere in it as far as I can see.

I must confess I am genuinely starting to worry. She is an intelligent and mature child, but she still shouldn't be left without assistance...

[Voice/Action]

[goldenglasses]

Maybe she hasn't woken up yet. I'm sure she's alright and will call us over the journals when she wakes up. [He sure hopes so.]

Until then I'm near Community Housing Four. I'll look around here.

[Voice/Action]

[semper_cogitans]

I appreciate it very much, Vash. Your father was very explicit in his instructions to me on keeping her safe.

[Some distress seeps into Robert's tone.] I can't afford to fail her or him. [He hates feeling so helpless, and the Shifts often cause an almost learned helplessness in him, because not even his wealth can do anything about them. It was the sort of thing that shut his family down just as much as anybody else's.

Not like he really cares about his wealth anymore. It's more a peripheral part of his life than anything... especially now, when he has Vivi and Don and... and whatever he has with the headmaster and his brother... Robert honestly isn't sure himself.

A weak, strained smile slips over his face at Vash. He's a good, kind son. Rupert is probably proud.]

[Voice/Action] Guh, work. Everytime I tried to answer this the boss would walk in. It's a cursed tag

[goldenglasses]

Don't worry. No one can blame you for something like this. We'll find her. Like you said, she's smart. I'm sure once she wakes up she'll let us know where to find her. Try not to worry too much. [Now if he could only take his own advice.]

[Voice/Action] | It's the tag of doom!

[semper_cogitans]

[Robert nods again, pursing his lips thinly.] I... will try not to.

[Of course, he ends up hearing from Vivi very soon after this, so he doesn't have to worry too much longer.]

[Voice/Action] It was. It was kinda crazy.

[goldenglasses]

I'll let you know if I find her, alright?

[Voice/Action] | Should we segue into the other thread? O:

[semper_cogitans]

Alright, Vash... Maybe she will respond to you more readily...? [Though Vivi is very close to him. Almost strangely close.]

[Voice/Action] Sure! The boss is suppose to be out of the office tomorrow so I think I can keep up!

[goldenglasses]

I don't know, she likes you too you know. I'm sure she'll answer your calls too when she hears them.

[Voice/Action]

[semper_cogitans]

(OOC: Mun isn't sure if Robert would address Daisy as... Daisy or Sierra-023... He thinks Daisy, but figures that should be up to your discretion.)

Just the kind of coincidence that doesn't need to happen at this point.

Oh dear. [He may not be too close to the young woman, but she'd been an invaluable research partner, and he can't help worrying a little for her sake.] If I see any of them, I will inform you immediately.

[Voice/Action]

[semper_cogitans]

(OOC: Works for me! \o/)

Yes I am, Daisy. Thank you for your concern.

Initially I thought nothing was wrong; unlike others, I am in the proper building. Though... it seems odd, as though its contents were rearranged. And I do not see the work I brought home yesterday... perhaps I left it at the school?

[But it isn't like him to forget.]

Ah, well, at any rate, Vivi's safety is more important. But at least this Shift seems to be... more disorienting than dangerous.

[Voice/Action]

[semper_cogitans]

The damage seems to be minimal - in fact, despite the reorganization of my apartment, everything seems to be in order besides my work.

Of course, I was rather distracted...

[The mention of the prototype armour makes him feel a little better.] I am glad that the armour was not damaged. It represents a real breakthrough... and I cannot thank you enough for your assistance. I am sure that Donatello feels the same way. [Not that he'd speak for the top engineer and co-worker, but from what he knows about Don...]
