{Diva is absolutely soaked. From the amount of water dripping off of her, you'd think that she had decided to take a swim, but in reality she had been caught in the rain without an umbrella. Her head is bowed slightly, and her bangs are covering most of her face, but she doesn't seem to realize that she's on the Astral Plane at all. Her skin seems paler and her hair longer, but Diva is just standing perfectly still as if she were waiting for someone.}

[Give him a minute to see the soaking wet woman, then hop off the Plane and come back a moment later with a black towel to hold out to her silently.]

[madamemoiselle]

{Doesn't take the towel, just very quietly} Is Amshel coming?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Uhm... [has to lean in juuust slightly to make her out, holding the towel against his chest not] I don't know anyone named Amshel.

[madamemoiselle]

{Glances up, and then it's obvious that she's crying} I'm here?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Ack! Crying is not good. D:] Y-yes. Are you okay?

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

[Has been thinking about Diva constantly since their last (TIME PARADOX) conversation, and as soon as she sees the soaking-wet woman, she's back with a towel, a big fuzzy robe, and a table with hot chocolate and little steaming buns. Without a word she pulls a hair brush from a little back beside the table and grips it in her teeth, starting to dry Diva's hair so she can pull it back and out of the woman's face.]

[madamemoiselle]

{Diva doesn't move, just looks back at Tohru; Diva has been crying. And to note, there's quite a lot of hair to be dried now, reaching almost to her knees.}...Tohru? Ne...I didn't even realize.

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

[Fortunately Tohru is a very patient person. She gets Diva's hair into a damp, rather than soaked, state (though it takes a couple of towels), and manages to get it into a thick braid. She puts the robe around Diva's shoulders and takes the woman's soaked clothes off under it, then ties it shut and leads Diva over to the table.] D-Diva-san?

[Sits Diva down and gives her some tea.] Wh-what happened? What's wrong? Did... did your friend try to hurt you again?

[madamemoiselle]

No...{Stares at the cup} Amshel is gone.

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

Amshel... I-is that your friend?! Something happened to him?!

[contract_star]

...Diva?

[madamemoiselle]

{Doesn't look up} He didn't come.

[contract_star]

[Disappears for a moment and reappears with a towel, holding it out to her.]

[Gently,] Who didn't come? Have you lost someone as well?

[madamemoiselle]

{Takes the towel and starts to dry off her hair very slowly} Amshel, I can't hear Amshel anymore.

[contract_star]

Damn, that must be, what, nine people missing now? Diva, you're not the only one. A whole bunch of us are missing people. [Grimly,] It's the Twins' doing.

I'm sure he's alright. For now we're pretty sure that the missing people have ended up in other people's realities. Like before, when we switched...realities...[Trails off, realizing that considering what happened to her then that information probably isn't very comforting.]

[Firmly,] He'll be fine. We're going to work together to find the people who have gone missing.

[and the Brigadier does what he does every time Diva shows up on the plane; he stands there, arms behind his back, watching her... maybe someday HE'LL ACTUALLY SAY SOMETHING WTF D:]

[madamemoiselle]

{You should, because Diva is just going to keep waiting}

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

[awwww, Diva. okay, he'll try] ...Something wrong?

[madamemoiselle]

He didn't come.

[barelyemoting.livejournal.com]

Who didn't?

[!!! water! So have a frog hopping closer and closer, rather interested. Stands in front of Diva, staring up at her, and enjoying the drops that falls off her~]

Nee nee, you look like a human, gero! But you are wet, gero! You like getting soaked, hm? Hm hm?

[madamemoiselle]

{Looks down} Human...? I'm not human.

[gerogerodance.livejournal.com]

Then you are a frog, gero? Like me, hm hm hm?

[madamemoiselle]

{Crouches curiously} No...I'm a Chiropteran--a vampire.

[gerogerodance.livejournal.com]

[tilts his head...] And what is that, gero? Hm hm? Why do you look like a human then, gero? You can change too? What is your real form, gero gero? Can you fly?
