[Accidental Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

[This isn't the first time Emil has returned home to an uncomfortably quiet house. It's not unusual for H to be out somewhere during the day, but there's something strange about today, a weird feeling in the house that causes a sinking sensation in the pit of Emil's stomach. Hoping against hope, he's going to head upstairs and open the door to his housemate's bedroom... only to have his worst fears confirmed.

Once again, his journal falls to the ground with a thud, popping open to record a strained, shaky voice.]

N-no... no, not again... no... please...

[OOC: I know, I'm still on hiatus, but Emil wouldn't not react to his housemate vanishing.]

Hey! Somethin' wrong kid?

[knightofratatosk]

Horatio is gone...

[crisisrain]

The police officer guy right? He got sent home?

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah. He was my housemate, and all of his things are gone.

[crisisrain]

That means ya've been left alone in that big house again, huh?

[knightofratatosk]

...

[That would be a yes.]

[crisisrain]

Sorry kid, didn't quite catch that. Are ya on yer own?

[Dot dot dotting doesn't work well with Raven.]

[knightofratatosk]

Y-yes.

[crisisrain]

Well that's not very good at all is it. Isn't there anyone you could stay with for a while? Or come over and keep ya company?

[knightofratatosk]

I'll be okay... I'm used to being alone by now, really.

[crisisrain]

Bein' lonely is a bad thing! I'm sure ya have plenty of friends here~

[knightofratatosk]

But I'm not lonely, I'm just...

[Okay, so he is kind of lonely.]

[crisisrain]

Sad, depressed, empty-inside? One of those right?

[knightofratatosk]

... all of those.

[crisisrain]

And lonely?

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah.

[As much as he hates to admit it.]

[crisisrain]

Ya need a hug.

[knightofratatosk]

I-I didn't say that!

[crisisrain]

No ya didn't, I did. So do ya want a hug or not?

[knightofratatosk]

... promise you're not going to squash me like you did at the fountain?

[crisisrain]

I didn't say nothin' about me huggin' ya, I just said ya needed one.

[knightofratatosk]

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you meant you were going to come hug me.

[crisisrain]

I could do if ya wanted me to, the snows seems ta have gone.

[knightofratatosk]

I could make you some tea if you come over.

[And by that he means "PLEASE DO," only without saying so.]

[crisisrain]

Hmm what kinda tea we talkin' about here kid?
