Attention!

[dream_is_a_wish]

[Dreamfinder appears on the feed, interrupting whatever anyone may have been doing on their Mirrors. He will feel guilty over that in a moment but he has to focus.]

Apprentices. Your help is needed in the Kingdoms. Someone is...murdering the Citizens of Main Street. It, will be dangerous but well, you all have something the citizens do not.

[Figment's head pops up over Dreamfinder's shoulder.]

Yeah! You guys have a got Sparks! And a whole lotta of 'em too! Plus, we have enough Sparks saved up from your mission to bring back two more Kingdom Spirits!

[Dreamfinder smiles, resting his hand on Figment's head (more a comfort for himself than the little dragon).]

Please keep your eyes open- I need to get things ready for the next step in freeing the Bayou- but....I can't do it without you. So please, be careful.

Yeah and let us know if you find anything!

Thank you, everyone.

[He gives a gentle smile before shutting off the feed, Figment waving until the screens return to whatever they had been on before.]

[Ah. Well, perhaps she should make her way over to Lydia's with some snacks in the near future. Rice's seen her other comms on the network, and feels like perhaps beating something up and then eating her weight in sweet foods might help. But also.]

I'm in the same boat as Malcolm, I don't have any extra sparks, but I do have what the kids call 'A big fucking sword'.

[If Rice seems more agitated and foul-mouthed than usual, that's because there are literal murders going on, and she had no idea they were happening to prevent them.]

I'll be there as soon as I can to start helping.

[the 'what the kids call' comment makes her laugh. bless, Rice. bless.]

Be careful, okay? If anyone gets hurt, I can come and heal you.

[voidalviera]

[She's not sure her fighting style is particularly conducive to 'careful', as it were, but that doesn't mean she can't try... she thinks.]

I'll try as best I can, I promise. But know that I also won't hesitate if it means that one of the civilians can leave unharmed.

[Because that's her job really, healer or no, she thinks. The apprentices' are already on relatively thin ice here, but this is something she knows she can do. Thinking and finding and searching fine, but fighting is what she's good at.]

[strangeandunusual]

[another surge of fondness floods Lydia's heart. Rice's selflessness and bravery remind her of Cirilla, but she also has a warmth that the other woman lacked ... and the combination of the three can be dizzying at moments. like this one. she's dumbstruck for a moment]

... Of course you won't. It wouldn't be you if you did.

[she pauses, wondering if she's about to say one thing and mean another]

Just come back in one piece, okay?

[voidalviera]

[For a moment, the Voidsent's eyes soften as she looks into her compact. As a mercenary and one without a family at that, those words weren't something she heard too often. She doesn't know how much that small gesture means to her, but she knows she'll remember it.]

I'll try.

[strangeandunusual]

You'd better do better than try. Come see me before you leave, okay? I can give you some potions to help. And a hug.
