Just in case anyone was concerned... Futaba Sakura is, well— sleeping. I know that she's made quite a few friendships since arriving here in Vaikuntha, on top of all the information she's been archiving for all of us otherworlders, so... I don't think she would want any of you to worry if you've noticed her absence over the past few days.

It's sort of like— needing to recharge her batteries. It might last days or weeks depending on how much rest she needs, but this is just the norm. She wanted to make sure that anyone who might be anxious about disappearances knew that she was still here and not— gone, since it seems like that's happened to us again recently with some familiar faces.

If there's any message you'd like to pass a long for when she wakes up, feel free to leave it with me. If we haven't met yet, call me Ren.

Alternatively, you know... press "F" to pay respects.

Thanks. I know after Hunk disappeared, the others were starting to worry if she was alright when we didn't hear from her.

[...They all were. Himself included. That said:]

Why "F" specifically?

[o h n o]

[masqueraid]

( it's cool, at least you did it right. it can't be seen since it's text of course, but there's a solemn nod as he replies in kind... )

F

[masqueraid]

Lowercase is acceptable too... I guess.

[masqueraid]

Why F?
To pay respects of course. ( ren, pls. )

Yeah, I had a feeling that might have had something to do with it. You knew them both, then?

idk her that well but

┌(;｀Д´)ノF!!!

[Couldn't resist the meme. Plus, the need to recharge is too relatable.]

I don't know her that well yet, but I'd like to.

Can definitely relate to needing to recharge. I haven't been here very long yet, and already I'm exhausted. Does this happen a lot? Is it a side effect of being here, or something else?

[Feel free to casually disregard the interrogation, Ren. This is just the way she is with everyone and everything.]

Also F because she seems like the type to appreciate this kind of thing. :3

Thank you for letting us know what happened. I was getting worried when we didn't hear from her after Hunk disappeared. Is there anything that can be done to help? Or is it better to leave her be until she returns on her own?

[littlemhigan]

f?

im glad shes alright. she wasnt looking well. i was growing concerned.

[masqueraid]

F ノ( ´◡`ノ)

I would like to accept this F on Futaba-chan's behalf in the name of Friendship.

[masqueraid]

She'd be happy to hear that, I think.
And also thankful for the respects.

It happens... well, whenever she works herself too hard, I'd say.
( or when the stress response takes over. it's not really his place to spill all of her secrets, though. )

It was a side effect to that back home, too.

[masqueraid]

( souji that is so savage, especially delivered with that protag-style straight face that he's picturing right now as he reads this.
and also as he replies. )

Another F to reinforce the Foundation, in that case.

[masqueraid]

Actually I think... she'll be more than grateful just knowing that so many people were thinking about her. If you're a friend of hers, you're more than welcome to come visit but I'm afraid most of what she has to say right now is "Z."

You knew Hunk, too?

[masqueraid]

It happens to her sometimes. Nothing a nap or forty won't help with.

But you know, after reading the replies to this I think at the very least it will let her know just how many places she has to crash if she needs to.

( aka you all seem like good peeps worrying about her and all that fuzzy stuff. )

[thegoofball]

it's extra respectful that way

[spaceforged]

I'll leave her to her sleep for now. I might ask to drop by some time later.

Yes, we're from the same universe and team. ...he's definitely missing. His...his Lion put up its barrier. It would only do that if its pilot isn't present.

[balancingedge]

[Yeah, that... doesn't explain anything at all. He's just going to lean over to Shiro and ask what it means when neither Lance or Pidge are present.]

Yeah. Hunk is a member of my team back in our reality. She joined us to help bring him and my best friend back from the Dream Width. He's been worried, too.

[And, briefly, there is a video of a very sad looking cosmic wolf whining. Galra's best friend sensed the distress of the entire team.]

[pishirogane]

Is there a structural issue with our housing that I should be made aware of?

[And if so, did one of you do it? Either way, they both must understand she's leering at her Slate right now.]

[masqueraid]

Only planning for the Future, Shirogane-kun.
It's important to stay Flexible.

[pishirogane]

Let's not incite another Flood, Amamiya-san. That would be Foolish.

[masqueraid]

Can't argue with that.

( what )

I humbly accept your extra respectfulness on behalf of Futaba Sakura in that case, ah...?

( oh dear, can he even humbly accept anything without his generous donor's name? )

[masqueraid]

Ah, the same team. He told me a little about being a space hero, but unfortunately he never got the chance to fill me in on all the fine details that make an adventure just that.

Maybe I can convince you to humour me sometime?

[masqueraid]

Your team? You mean...

( he had only brief and surface knowledge about the exploits a team of space heroes might get up to.
but if watching sentai shows and reading manga had taught him anything, it was— )
