Action for Clementine and Ushio

[Between suddenly having to be on guard for walkers again and now looking after not one but two little girls, one of whom hadn't lived through the apocalypse with him before, it's understandable that he both notices and doesn't register Laguna's absence. He gave him the benefit of the doubt on Saturday, but now it's very early Sunday morning and he's still not back.

And now he's sitting awake making sure that the cleaver he's been using as a walker-killing knife is still clean and functional, although that's almost an unconscious action at this point, thinking over what he's going to do now. His 'Gear is sitting next to him, but it's not registering Laguna at all. He's not sure what he's going to tell the girls.]

Text; later that same day

If anyone hears from Laguna Loire, tell him Lee Everett is looking for him. Thanks.

[Not really that new, but comparatively, yes probably.]

I've noticed.

He's offline on the communicators, too. Radio static, not just going to his voicemail.

If that's the case we might not find him until next year.

[This is, after all, Laguna.]

[Radio static--oh, hell no. Not again! There's a bit of a delay before she responds: she had to check for herself.]

Or at all. If you can't get through to his gear, then he's gone back to his world. That's how it works here.

Not that kind of radio silence. It hasn't been disconnected, it's just like it's out of range. Or broken. I think he's still here.

Besides, his team's gone with him. That doesn't happen if you go back.

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. I've known teams that stay entirely, while others disappear when their trainers do. There's no pattern to it.

But knowing Laguna, if he is still here he's probably gotten lost in a cave and broken his gear. Next year might be a generous guess.

I'm not going to give up hope until I find out for sure. Weird stuff's been happening, and I don't want to write him off just yet.

You're right about that, though. Me and the girls are going to start looking for leads as soon as things calm down. I'll keep you posted if we find anything. And if you hear from him first, will you do the same

[Uh.]

Sorry, I didn't catch your name.

Lightning. [That's it. No last name. She's like that. whoops.]

I'll call you if I find any trace of him or get a call from him, Lee. Try and keep yourselves out of trouble in the meantime.

[He might've questioned that if he hadn't gone months without even knowing the last name of his arguably-best friend.]

Are you a friend of his from his home?

Sure thing. Thanks for the help, Lightning. I'll talk to you later.

Something like that. It's a long story. Have him tell you when he gets back if you're curious about it.

Good luck.

I'll keep that in mind. Among many other questions I'll have for him, I'm sure.

Thanks. You too.
