[Liz has kept mostly to herself since the Furball incident got a lot of people hurt, but certain things catch her attention without fail.

This time it's the fact that she can't seem to find Chloe anywhere.]

Umm... I know that, like, I'm not everyone's, like, favorite or anything right now, but... umm... Has anyone seen Chloe? She's been here a while now, but, like, I can't find her at any of, like, her normal hang-outs.

Sollux? Derek???

[Is someone freaking a tad? Mmmm, yes.]

[He's a lot more comfortable with touch in his wolf form now than he used to be. Most of that is due to Chloe, to her comfort around him like this, to the hide and seek they'd play in the forest, to her sleeping curled around him when he was a wolf.

And now... now, it's easier, than having to talk. Not that he could, like this, but still.

They both know the answer to that. But Derek hasn't given up yet. He's not willing to face the reality that she's gone. She's not gone. Not yet. Not when he hasn't searched every single area possible.

He pushes his head against her leg, hoping she'll stay solid enough for him not to go through it.]
