A missing pet poster appears as a hologram video. The image itself is actually static, but some words seem to be flickering and glitching with a soft buzz.

(( ooc: the "cat" in question is a joke on Mizuki, who disappeared from Aldrip on 03/05! To those who know him, Saito is still pretending to be "Date" (aka pretending to be a decent guy and a good adoptive father to Mizuki), but he won't be dropping the act with those who don't know him either. ))

what a darling creature...

[honestly, daeshim would be tempted to keep a cat this cute. old habits die hard sometimes.]

[grappler]

is that supposed to be funny

[parasaito]

Both, actually
I hoped to grab her attention with this

She hasn't returned to our inn room since yesterday, I'm worried something might've happened to her

[starguy]

oh scut. is she answering her charm at all?

did she say anything about where she was going, last time you saw her?

[finisaeternam]

what is this?

[parasaito]

Nope, have tried to contact her far too many times to count, but she never answered

She must still be mad at me

[parasaito]

A missing p̸͎͝e̷̦̅ẗ̸̡́ person poster.

[Oh my. Is his voice also glitching now?]

Re: text

[parasaito]

It's just a lighthearted way of tackling a serious issue
Anything wrong with that?

[parasaito]

I can assure you her attitude is anything but that

[Vholran shakes his charm in frustration. Something is clearly wrong with the audio.]

Your poster is missing?

LOL

[parasaito]

[This person is trying to do the troll the troll thing, right? If only he didn't need info on Mizuki's whereabouts, he'd play along with this, but...]

No, obviously the p̸͎͝e̷̦̅ẗ̸̡́ p̵e̶r̸s̷o̴n̸ ̵o̸n̴ ̶t̷h̴e̴ picture is w̸̯̆h̵̥͒a̴̱͗t̴͉̃ w̶h̷o̴ is missing.

[starguy]

[ Is this that teenage rebellion Peter has heard so much about? ]

did something happen?

[grappler]

why would you make a joke about someone being missing?
it's not funny
if they're missing, they could be dead, and you're sitting here making shitty posters

[finisaeternam]

[Vholran doesn't catch most of that.]

The picture is not missing, it's right there.

[Why does he get the feeling someone is messing with him?]

[incessantness]

if you have something with the scent, i can find them.

(they're a very good doggo.)

[faeshim]

but you do miss her.

[1/2]

[parasaito]

We had a pretty bad argument

[2/2] sorry peter...

[parasaito]

[This next message follows a few seconds later.]

The truth is...
She told me she has a crush on you

But I can't accept that, no matter what
You understand why, right?

[parasaito]

Now you're just jumping to conclusions
I never said it was a joke

Why would I joke about my adopted daughter being missing?

[The idea of being Mizuki's adoptive father is still cringeworthy to him, no matter how many times he tells that lie.]

[grappler]

"a light hearted way of tackling a serious issue"

i dunno, the fucking poster makes it all look like a joke. how about you spend more time looking for her instead of making that shit?
well, maybe don't. she probably deserves better anyway

[parasaito]

Tch. Are you deaf or...

[Wait. If they can see the picture, maybe there's still salvation.]

Have you seen the p̷̢̎ḛ̶̓t̷͎͂ p̷e̶r̵s̶o̴n̵ ̴i̵n̴ ̴t̸h̸e̷ ̵ picture?

[finisaeternam]

[Vholran is growling at the charm, not that anyone can hear it.]

Yes, I can see the picture!

[Parts of it are blurred together and dotted but not knowing what static is, he figures this all intentional.]

this is so horrible I love it

[starguy]

whaaat?

no

seriously? what?

dude.....

oh man this is awkward. you told her i wasn't interested right?

[ He's gotta let her down slow!! ]

[parasaito]

[Thankfully, Mizuki didn't take neither the scarf nor the charm Saito gave her during the Day of Devotion celebrations. Who would've thought those pieces of trash would come in handy now.]

I do have a scarf she wore once, during an entire night. Maybe it still has her scent?
