[Open - Backdated]

[boredallready]

Date & Time: February 11th, afternoon
Location: Floors 1-10
Characters: Lloyd, Zelos, and anyone who answers their door
Summary: Lloyd is trying to find Zelos, but he isn't sure where he lives. So it's time to knock on all the doors until he finds him or someone tells him where he lives!
Warnings: None

[Lloyd had been meaning to talk to Zelos ever since he had gotten back to normal, but he had felt weird for a few days after that. With the way he had just shut off the tablet on him last time, Lloyd wasn't going to try contacting him that way. The only problem was, he had no idea which apartment he lived in.

So the only thing to do was to knock on every door until he found him! His dad always told him to start at the beginning, so beginning on the first floor, he's going to check every room until he can find his friend. It's not like they lived on the same floor, right?

Lloyd walks up to the doors and knocks on it, waiting around no more than a minute for someone to either open the door or respond in some way. He can be persistent when he wants, but his attention span still only lasts so long, after all.]

[...Zelos?

Nill frowns. While she has a slight suspicion, there's nothing to confirm it, and she doesn't really want to bother trying. It isn't really much of her business, so she quickly shakes her head. She holds up a hand though, a finger extended - just a moment, please - before pulling her tablet out of her pocket and typing on it.]

Is that a friend of yours?

[boredallready]

"Is...that...a...friend...of...yours?"

[...Why is she making him read, this isn't school. Maybe this was like when Colette lost her voice? Maybe he'll find out!]

Yeah, that's right! I really need to talk to him! Do you know him?

[reassures]

[Why is he reading it like that... maybe he's illiterate? Or just a very slow reader. He wouldn't be the first illiterate person she's spoken to here, anyway.]

I'm sorry if you have trouble reading it. I can't talk.

I don't know him.

[boredallready]

"I'm...sorry if you have...trouble...reading it. I can't talk."

[Hey, he was right!]

Do you need some help? One of my friends couldn't talk for a while, but we figured out what to do for her after a while.

[And back to that other sentence.]

"I don't...know him."

Well, thanks. It doesn't seem like a lot of people know him. [Which is even weirder to Lloyd.]

[reassures]

[Nill touches a hand to her throat for a moment, and then shakes her head. Heine had talked about looking for a way to fix it once, too - but Nill is pretty certain that there's nothing there to fix anymore.

It really does seem like this guy is having some difficulty though, so she switches to keeping things shorter if she can.]

Why do you need to talk to him?

[boredallready]

Oh, you just...never had a voice? [Lloyd can't quite remember how voices work, but it sounds a little sad to him.]

"Why...do you...need...to talk...to him?"

He's been acting really weird ever since we got here. Especially the last time I saw him. So I wanted to ask him about that.

[reassures]

[She shrugs. That isn't quite accurate, but she doesn't really want to explain why that is.]

I hope you can find him.

[boredallready]

[He's going to take that as a yes, though.]

"I hope...you can...find...him."

Yeah, me too. I wanna know what's going on!

[reassures]

[That's fine with her.]

Maybe he is upset with you.

[boredallready]

"Maybe...he is...upset...with...you."

But I don't know why! It's not like I did anything to him.

[Or so he thinks.]

[reassures]

If you find him, you should ask him.

[boredallready]

"If you...find him...you...should...ask him."

I guess I could. It still sounds pretty weird, though.

Oh, I'm Lloyd, by the way!

[reassures]

How do you spell that?

I'm Nill.
