third!! (accidental voice)

[tykebombing]

[the feed clicks on, and there's an exaggerated yawn and the sound of rustling sheets, followed by a young girl's voice - one that's likely familiar to some of demeleier's residents, at least - slightly slurred, the speaker still half asleep.]

Uwehh, sure got dark again ... but where's Big Sis Val?

[the girl yawns again, and mumbles something

[ Valeria is perched on the edge of Dante's bed, legs drawn up Indian-style beneath her and lackluster eyes just barely focusing on the communicator in her still gloved hands. She scrolls through the broadcasts on the network, her interest waning rapidly in light of her perpetual awareness of the absence of a certain little girl the memory of whom she just can't shake. She isn't sure she wants to to begin with and the more she thinks about Luki, the less she wants to bother with the communicator or anything else really. If nothing else, she just wants to sleep and she's of a mind to after such a long day, fingers tripping over the buttons of the communicator as she lowers the device to the bed at her side only to pause as a very familiar voice sounds from it. That voice, she knows that voice and she lifts the communicator rapidly with both hands to observe the blank screen, grip tightening and hands shaking increasingly and well out of her control. ]

Luki...? Luki, is that you?

[ It's her. She doesn't even have to wait for an answer

[Dante hadn't been expecting a wake up call that evening, for a guy that hardly slept, he was actually doing it for once. He ran into the other section of the croft, rubbing his eyes, sword out. He figured somethign had gotten into the house.]

Calm down, calm down. I'll kill the spider, just calm the he-

[And then whatever portion of him was trying to wake him up properly eventually did. He snapped into attention.]

Luki's back? Luki's here?! Where the hell is she?!

[a_la_turk]

I -- [ And she's pausing at that, stammering with the sudden realization that she doesn't know. Luki hadn't said where she was, just that it was dark, so -- ] I-I don't know! She didn't say, but she's here and -- [ It's then that the front door began to shake as a result of strong claws scratching at the wood with a very clear insistence. ] Geri?

[VOICE]

[tykebombing]

Bwuhh?

[the shouting is what wakes her fully, with a violent start. it's loud, and tense - both things guaranteed to grab her attention. luki yawns and rubs at her eyes as she inquires after her guardians.]

Big Sis Val? Big Bro Dante? Where'd you guys go?

[trashheap_angel]

[This one never quite realized that Luki disappeared.]

Ah! I was looking for you!

Did you get lost in the forest? I did, recently too. I could fly and find you if that happened.

[tykebombing]

Uwehh, Luki remembers you. I was looking for Sackiroth!

[trashheap_angel]

Did you find him?

[tykebombing]

No ... I looked and looked, and I just couldn't find him anywhere!

[ Well, that's a voice she obviously recognizes. And with Valeria suddenly vanishing on her the past few days, it's actually a little surprising - or partially maybe even comforting - to hear that familiar voice again. ]

Yo, Luki! You okay? [ She grins as if nothing happened. ]

[tykebombing]

[there are pillow marks still visible on the girl's face when she replies, nodding as she turns on the feed.]

Uh-huh ... Luki is OK! I just got a little tired.

[ video ]

[selfished]

Ah, but you slept now, right? So it's all okay.

[ Yup, let's just pretend nothing happened -- she starts munching down on some food as she speaks. (There's always food where there is Kyouko.) ]

Glad to see ya though.

[ video ]

[tykebombing]

Uh-huh ... [nodding] But still a little tired. And I didn't find Sackiroth yet.

[genocidegame]

I'm sure she'll be happy to see you ♥

[tykebombing]

Big Sis Val always likes to see Luki!

[genocidegame]

And with good reason.

[tykebombing]

What reason?

[protectsfools]

Luki-san...?

[tykebombing]

Hiya, Big Sis! [what, nothing wrong here. n_n]

[protectsfools]

Big Sis...? [yes there is]

[tykebombing]

Uh-huh! You're that cool big sis who never drew anything before! Or did Luki remember it wrong ... ?
