[Roy’s journal is open and recording. Is it on purpose or by accident?]

Oh, now you decided to come for me. Looks like I’ll be off! And don’t forget practice, guys!

[The Drama Group get that directed at them without a filter, since Roy doesn't have enough time to put it up before the droids arrive. Soon enough, there are noises of Roy resisting, follow by some remarks from him to the droids.

Then, silence.]

R-Roy? Wait a minute! What do you m--

[Those sounds sound very familiar!]

No! It's not allowed!

[She'll be rushing over there, quick enough to see the droids.

Quick enough for her to try to get Roy out of their robot-y hands. Lucky for her she doesn't live too far away?]

Let him go!

Wha--Cloche, get away!

[He's happy to see her, but he's also worried that the droids might take her along as well. He don't want the Malnosso get their grubby hands on her any more than they have to.

Then they knocked him out.

Sure enough...Cloche's attempt is admirable, but the droids successfully take Roy away.]

No! No, let him go! You aren't allowed to take-- ah!

[Droids were pesky when they wanted someone, weren't they? Cloche is not a reyvateil built for melee attacks, and her being smacked down shows it.]

[Freyjadour had been spending the past few days all over the place, to keep an eye out for his sister's return, or Gold, or Silver.

So of course, when he hears Roy's yelling in the distance, he rushes over, following the same line of though as Cloche- the Malnosso had been rather keen on the abductions lately, and one more person he knows being taken? It wasn't something he could stand by and not try to stop.

When he gets there, though, he seems to be too late..... all he sees is a woman on the ground. Was she alright....?] Miss....?

[HE LOOKS STRONG. She's going to shove her finger in the direction that the droids went.]

You can't let them take Roy! You can't! They aren't allowed to take him away!

[...

Despite being upset, the bossy princess is... sort of taking over. Sorry Frey.]

[Oh, he's used to bossy princesses don't worry. He offers her a hand to help her up, concern on his face.] Can you stand, Miss?

Which way did they go? Did you see?

[It might be fruitless to even try, but he was fed up with this.]

[She'll take his hand, nodding.]

Y-yes, I can stand, they just knocked me over, but! They went [aaand a point in the direction they went] that way! We can catch them! We have to.. they can't take Roy away...!

[He pulls her up, looking into that direction.] Right. Let's go! [ Without a word he is pulling out his weapon -one that looks almost exactly like Roy's- and running in that direction. She might follow, she might not, but the longer they stood around the less chance they would have of retrieving Roy.]

[Oh, she's following all right! She's determined to not have him end up like she did before.]

[Too bad for them that the droids are fast, faster then most humans here.

By the time the hit a wide open area, there is no sign of them still, and no indication of whether they had continued in the same direction or not.]

[Cloche is seeing this.

She is not liking this. At all. She'll look around frantically for them, trying to listen for them, before just... stopping in her tracks.]

He's...

.....They are gone. [.....He grits his teeth, clenching his weapon in hand as he tries to swallow his frustration.

This is too much. Too many people are disappearing, lately. Was it just a coincidence, or.....?]

Why... why do they take people? Why did they have to take Roy?

[She's going to be starting the tears now.]

[H-how does one comfort a crying girl, let alone a crying stranger? If it was someone he knew, he would at least have some idea, but....] I.....

I'm sorry. I don't know.

It- [hic] It isn't right! They have no right to-- [sob] to take anyone!

...They don't. [Awkwardly, he places a hand on her shoulder. He isn't sure if it's ok, but... He had never been good with tears. ~~his sister had him well trained~~.]

They've taken many people the past few days.

[She won't mind. It's a comfort.]

What... what if they do terrible things to... to...

[Not necessarily, but she doesn't know that.]

....We must help him when he returns.

I'm sorry, Miss.

I'll... I'll sing until I can't anymore if it will heal him!

....Sing? [Healing magic through singing?

He'd seen this before, but.....]

Yes, healing songs. I'll sing until I'm hoarse if I have to!

I'm sure Roy would be happy to hear you care so much.

[he... had no real idea how it worked, having only seen Tear do so a few times. But it certainly must take effort.]

I've done it once before. I know he appreciated it then.

That sounds like him.

[She's quiet a moment, then:]

Do you know him very well?

He is a comrade from home. [Turning to face her fully, he collapses his weapon back into pieces before placing it in the holster at his back.

She might notice they look... awfully alike, but their coloring is entirely different.]

[...yes, she's definitely noticing it. Do you mind a nosy princess getting all up in your business, Frey?]

Huh... are you sure he's just a comrade? He's not your twin, is he?

[Luckily, people back home are confused enough by it to make this question easily answered.] ....He is not. The resemblance is entirely coincidental, though it has confused many people.

I'm not sure I buy it. You two look a lot alike.

I know we do. It is why we met. But I assure you, we are not related.

[He's his body double but he'd rather not mention that.]

Unless you're both related and just don't know it.

[Don't worry, Roy's going to get the same questioning later on.]

I am quite sure we are not related. It is all coincidence.

[Good luck Roy. Try not to flip tables.]

[The look on her face says she doesn't buy it. But she'll stop for now. ~~Roy won't get mad at her, she's too adorable to be angry with! :D~~]

I suppose I'll believe it for now.

[~~You misunderstand- that table will be flipped in Freyjadour's direction.~~]

In any case.... you are sure you will be alright, Miss?

[~~She will quell his annoyance. Somehow.~~]

...I'll be fine. And you?

I will be fine, as well. [He didn't wish to trouble her with the nagging worry this had produced. four people in the past seven days.... it seemed almost too much.]

Are you sure? You can talk to me if not.

It is not something talking will solve, I am afraid. [He smiles faintly in an attempt to reassure her.] I will be fine, I assure you.

My name is Freyjadour, by the way. I never got your name, Miss.....?

...well, the offer is still there.

I'm Cloche. Cloche Leythal Pastalia, Thirty-Third Maiden of the Grand Bell.

I am pleased to meet you, Cloche, though I wish it were under better circumstances. I am Freyjadour Falenas. [She gave her title, manners dictated to do the same for her, but... Roy might have already mentioned him, for all he knew. Then again...]

Commander of the Queen's Knights of Falena.

[That was his proper title, now.]

Queen's Knights? You sound a lot like Croix and Leglius. It's certainly an admirable position. I'm happy to meet you too, though I agree on circumstances.

Ah.... you flatter me, but I am afraid I am still quite new yet. [He had only just been named commander before returning, afterall.... Subject change....]

I am sure Roy will be back soon. I will be keeping an eye out for him along with some others who have been taken in recent days.

I will as well, and I'll look to see if I notice anyone coming back. If I do, I'll be happy to help, especially if you know them.

....You have my thanks, Miss Cloche. [That smiles grows a bit, a little less sad in response to her offer. The more people keeping an eye out for returnees the better.]
