Would those who are staying temporarily in building six please respond here? It will help us keep a more accurate list of residents. Those who are staying together may designate one person to provide multiple names, if necessary. Anyone who had been living in building six prior to the earthquake should also reply, if possible. Thank you.

[Whenever Nephry gets back to Regal's house, she might notice that the door to one of the rooms has been left open. And if she looks inside, she might spy a certain someone chilling on a bed, sewing up some new tears that her doll is suffering from.]

I am so sorry, Tokunaga. I should really take better care of you...

[It's the voice, more than anything, that makes her stop. She's been out all day and she's tired but Lorelei if she's hearing things now she's going to just throw in the towel.

Normally, courtesy would demand she knock. But the door's already open and the look on her face when she sees it's Anise in there is indescribable]

[Anise looks up, sensing a presence in the doorway, and gasps.]

Oh, Nephry! You're back! I was waiting all day! By the time Guy brought me here this morning, you were already gone, boo...

Anise...

[forget this standing here. The next thing Anise knows she'll be in the tightest hug Nephry's ever given her.]

Rooms 3, 8, and 36 are still occupied. Despite appearances to the contrary.

[The lack of names might just be on purpose.]

[Voice]

Thank you, but I need the names of anyone staying in those rooms. Keeping an accurate count of who might still be missing is vital in this situation.

[The response takes a while. Finally:] Donatello and Raphael Hamato. Casey Jones. Derek Bliss. We were in the process of moving out and our things are still in the apartments.

And are you all still residing here because of the earthquake?

[It's some time later, after Nephry's talked to every, and even after she has spoken to Anise - which Dist was secretly so relieved to see, though he wasn't as worried about her as Nephry - that Dist knocks softly on her door before speaking.]

Nephry? May I come inside?

[Action]

[offallingsnow]

Of course, Saphir. [In fact, it's quite the warm welcome. It was a long and tiring day so she's already in bed, but has been keeping quietly busy with a book, as it's a bit too early to sleep yet.]

[Dist pushes the door open, and though he tries to hide it, there's still a bit of unmasked concern present on his face as he steps inside.]

Thank you... [He fidgets a bit, pausing to gather a few words.] A-Are you all right, Nephry? I know the Professor healed you, and I would never doubt her skill! B-But I...it--can you move your legs at all?

[Action]

[offallingsnow]

[Her smile spreads, warmer and more amused now.]

Yes, I can. I've been out in the village all day. ...There are still some things I can't remember, but that hardly stops me from helping.
