Lloyd Irving

[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!

( Kratos wasn't there. )

[Fishing his Dreamberry out of his pocket, Lloyd tried to find his number to call. For some reason, though, the number he thought was his mentor's wasn't there. Damn it. I must have forgotten part of it.

Undeterred, he switched to a public call.]

Has anyone seen Kratos? Um, he's tall, red hair, likes to wear dark clothes. I haven't seen him in a few days and I can't find him now.
