Could everyone maybe check in, even if I don't know you. I feel like there's a few people I haven't seen around here lately.

[edalyn]

Yeah. But let's hope it doesn't. [As unlikely as that seems. Something happening is probably a matter of when more than if, but she can dream.]

[bossyboiler]

All I have is hope.

[ And anxiety. ]

[edalyn]

Better than having none.

[Even if that feels easier some days.

A beat.]

So who all is missing do you think? And how many of 'em just quit? [She knows there was... a lot of talk, after recent events. But she's not sure how many people actually left, and how many they might have lost to the servers or to whatever happens when people vanish.

The ones who are still around, she thinks should at least keep in touch. But that's not really up to her.]

[bossyboiler]

Andrew Jaeger. The turtles. [ Because they are large, green walking turtles. It's hard not to notice them. ] Neal's left. A few others are going to be leaving ADI. My roommates.

[edalyn]

That's... a lot.

[And while it's still not anyone she was terribly close to, she's still not happy about it.]

I just hope the ADI aren't right about how much trouble it causes if we all split up.

[If nothing else, if people do keep in touch, maybe they can keep tabs on that.]

[bossyboiler]

It is a lot.

I hope it means something that, at least some of them, haven't completely left town.

[edalyn]

Well, if they are right, it's probably better than spreading out more.

[She has to hope, at least. As much as she'd normally support people going their own way, she's not sure any of this is the best idea.]

[bossyboiler]

Yeah. If.

[edalyn]

Seems like there's... more than a little evidence they are.

[Which is coming from someone who very much thought it sounded fake when she got here.]
