Four [voice/video]

[falenandawn]

[As awareness returns and grey recedes, Freyjadour finds himself backstage at the draupnir, although he had been leaving work last he remembered. The guard in front of him nods, before walking off without a word, leaving Freyjadour staring after him in confusion, bracelet in hand.

Though that confusion is broken by a rather petulant 'meow' as a rather sulky Charles stares up at him, wanting the shiny bangle she had been hoarding all to herself back but unable to reach it. The kitten whines a bit more, before stalking off with a twitch of her tail, leaving Frey staring after her, too.

The sensation of coming back to himself was decidedly odd, and a relief as well. Was that what the people here had experienced? It wasn’t something he fancied experiencing again, not at all. It put the situation in a bit more perspective, if that was so.

But how long had he been like that, senseless and grey....? He couldn't tell at all, and so he brings up the screen of his bracelet, glad it seems to be working properly.]

I must keep a better watch over my bracelet, it seems. How long has it been.....? It was the 95th day when I left.

Lyon? Are you alright?

[Most of all, though, he's concerned about how Lyon would have taken this.]


I apologize if my disappearance has inconvenienced anyone.

Prince! Where are you? I'll be right there!

I'm at the theater..... I am sorry I worried you, Lyon.

Video/Action

[sparkling_eyes]

I'm on my way!

[The video cuts out as Lyon takes off running. She doesn't stop until she reaches the backstage entrance to the theater. Pausing in the doorway for a moment, she takes in the silhouetted figure of the Prince against the stage lights as she catches her breath. And then, wordlessly, she runs over to him, wordlessly wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug as she buries her face into his shoulder.]

Action

[falenandawn]

[He waits for her to speak, awaiting her words, expecting all sorts of worried questions. He wasn't quite expecting the hug when it comes, but he wraps his arms around her nonetheless, frowning slightly as he pats her back.

He had truly worried her, hadn't he.....? If he had kept better track of his bracelet.....]

I am sorry.....

Action

[sparkling_eyes]

[Lyon nods into his shoulder, taking a deep breath and letting it out again as she tries to calm herself down. She'd been worrying herself sick for days over whether he'd find his way back or not, so this is a huge relief. When she finally pulls back, it's clear that she'd been crying a little as she wipes the sides of her eyes.]

Thank goodness... I was so worried.

Re: Action

[falenandawn]

How long have I been gone.....? [He doesn't mention the tears, as always, but he does feel guilty for causing them, as the expression on his face probably showws. He didn't even remember where he had lost his bracelet.... though Charles had given him something of a clue.]

[sparkling_eyes]

Just over a week. I went out looking for you every day.

[falenandawn]

A week.....? That long?

[sparkling_eyes]

Yes. I was really starting to worry after the first few days. But your name was still in my bracelet, so I knew you had to be around somewhere. I know I should have just waited, but it was so frustrating not being able to do anything about it.

[falenandawn]

I am sorry..... I should have kept a closer eye on my bracelet. [He hated it when he caused her so much trouble....She didn't deserve that kind of stress.]

[sparkling_eyes]

Do you remember what you were doing when you lost it?

[falenandawn]

I was just leaving work, actually.

[sparkling_eyes]

And it just... fell off?

[falenandawn]

I cannot remember.

[sparkling_eyes]

We should find a way to fasten it on tighter so that doesn't happen again.

[falenandawn]

I had thought my gloves would keep the bracelet in place no matter what, but I guess not.....

[sparkling_eyes]

I wonder what we could use to fasten it on...

[She is not losing you like that again, okay :(]

[falenandawn]

String, perhaps?

[He'll be more careful, promise!]

[sparkling_eyes]

Do you think that will hold it?

[falenandawn]

I have no other ideas.

[sparkling_eyes]

Well, it's better than nothing.

[falenandawn]

Yes. Of course I plan to keep better track of it, as well.

[sparkling_eyes]

[Well, that seems to set her at ease. Lyon nods, smiling.]

All right.

[falenandawn]

[Now that he thinks of it, though, he's been absent from work for... two weeks. Would his pay get docked?] I wonder if Eyes wants me to get straight to work.....

[sparkling_eyes]

It might not be a bad idea. I'll help if you want.
