19th Combo - [Video]

[There's a huge grin on Lloyd's face, the kind of grin you only give when you're pleased and excited and everything is right in the world, or when something amazing is happening.]

Hey, everyone! Guess who's officially an adult today!

[That's right, it's his birthday - or the one that he and Dirk celebrate. The only one he's ever known, so the only one that counts as far as he's concerned.]

Oh, yeah, by the way, Kanaya, I finished that necklace for you! When do you wanna meet up?

[He... hasn't realized yet that Kanaya is gone. Late with your gifts again, Lloyd. Always late. :/ ]

But man, I've been looking forward to this birthday so much! Now that I'm eighteen, I don't have to go back to school!

[ she sighs and nods. ]

I didn't want to believe it either. A lot of people are disappearing lately...

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd blinks, a tiny thread of alarm mixing in with the rest of his shock.]

You don't think they're connected, do you? It's not just people waking up? It's something happening to them?

I really don't know, but I wish I did... there's no way for us to know for sure, is there?

[redcladidealist]

Not that I know of...

But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I haven't actually looked for a way to see back home, just going back home. Maybe if we look for a... a window instead of a door, we might have better luck.

I haven't thought of that before... do you think something like that exists?

[ somehow she doubts it, but you really never know. ]

[redcladidealist]

I think there's a really good chance! We won't know if we don't look for it, right? I'm definitely going to try!

[riflekid.livejournal.com]

Keep me posted if you find anything out! The whole idea sounds really interesting...

...and try and keep your chin up. She might come back soon.

[redcladidealist]

Yeah... You're right. I shouldn't give up hope. I'll keep trying my best, and maybe I'll see her again, here or in her world. I'll definitely let you know how it goes.

Thanks, Jade.

[You really cheered him up. Even better, you gave him an idea for something he can do instead of just sitting and accepting Kanaya's disappearance.]
