[He looks irrationally bothered, but after seeing/hearing the general panic around him, Vexen can put two and two together. He won't risk mentioning his own missing person unless absolutely necessary.]

Another aspect of the experiment, it seems. More so at our inconvenience this time. [siiiigh]

On that note, have any of you lost your daughter? I just spent the last hour chasing her away from a large rack of untested chemicals and it seems she's developed a certain fondness for rifling through my drawers.

Talk to Gene Hunt and Misaki Kirihara. They're compiling all the data from those with missing people.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

I'm perfectly capable of compiling my own data. I'll speak to them as a reference.

[contract_star]

Alright, then.

Are you also missing someone?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

[After the most subtle of glances to make sure nobody nearby is listening] I have yet to conduct a thorough search. There's still a chance that he may be nearby.

[contract_star]

[Noticed that.] It's likely that everyone who has someone new in their world is also missing someone at this point. What is he like--in terms of personality, mannerisms, that sort of thing?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Stubborn. I've only been observing his behavior for a short while, but there's no denying that much.

[contract_star]

Stubborn. Anything else?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Defensive. With a rather quick temper at times.

[contract_star]

Alright. I'll keep an eye out.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Very well.

[hua-fei.livejournal.com]

...does she act like a monkey? [She's asking not on her own behalf obviously :|]

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Possibly. Her behavior is reckless, at the least.

[lamb_of_gold]

Can you provide more detail? Especially into her behaviors.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Exactly as I said- young, energetic, and with no comprehension of the term 'privacy'.

[lamb_of_gold]

Is she mischievous or arrogant at all?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Mischievious? Very. Arrogant? I have yet to make enough conversation to determine.

[lamb_of_gold]

[Mu facepalms] Dear Goddess, I think you have Kiki.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

...Who?

[lamb_of_gold]

My student, Kiki. The description you provided is the closest I've heard.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

And how would you suggest I handle her? If she destroys another vial, I'll have none of my experiments left.

[lamb_of_gold]

He...right. Changes. Set him...her... a task. Something involving - menial, even. If...she....does not obey, compound the work. Once she's worked off her energy, give her books.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

There are plenty of books. That much, at least, should be simple. [Sudden idea--]

I would have to do this on a daily basis?

[lamb_of_gold]

Something menial to burn off energy, then something to occupy her, yes. Reordering a library should solve both problems.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

I see. Until she returns, I'll use that method to keep her occupied. I wouldn't, however, feel too guaranteed for her safety.

[lamb_of_gold]

If Kiki is at all harmed, I'm holding you responsible.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

I have no obligation of responsibility to her.

[lamb_of_gold]

You do at the moment.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

You should consider yourself lucky that I'm keeping her here at all.

[lamb_of_gold]

I suggest you not test my tolerance when the welfare of my student is concerned.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

And I suggest you not test my tolerance when it comes to the welfare of my laboratory.

[lamb_of_gold]

I told you how to handle the situation.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

A risk is a risk- I can't possibly supervise her every action.

[lamb_of_gold]

The materials in your laboratory can be replaced. A life cannot.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

You would be surprised.
