[Hey, this is York. M'not around right now so leave a message.

If this is a client, please leave your details and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

If this is one of the others, I'll get back to you whenever.

If it's Florida, I didn't do it.
 

Aaaand if it's anyone else... Just leave a message. I'll get back to you if I recognise you. Or even if I don't, and you sound cute.]

Actually I've come up with a place. There is a cafe called Common Grounds on 7th and Wurst St. I'll be there. Noon please.

[depthlesslock]

I've never been there, but I recognise the name. Sounds good, I'll see you there.'

[protective_logic]

And do me a favor. Don't tell Sigma.

[depthlesslock]

Okay?

[protective_logic]

It's a surprise. You know his birthday is coming up, correct?

[depthlesslock]

Sigma's? I didn't know that, no.

[protective_logic]

Well, I'll tell you about it tomorrow, at coffee.

[depthlesslock]

Alright. See you tomorrow.

[ambitious_muse]

York? H-hey. It's Sigma. D'you have a minute? Things at home have fallen apart and I--I need to talk to someone.

[depthlesslock]

Sig? Yeah, of course I've got a minute. What's wrong?

[the_informant]

Got a client. Looking for a missing person. Guy apparently likes/frequents coffee shops. Figured since you're in them you could keep an eye out for me. There is a pan of my double-fudge brownies in it if you do. More if you find me info leading to him.

See folder uploaded to your command interface for details.

[Within moments of the message's arrival there is a ping with a file upload, titled 'Delta.' It's filled with all the information Florida learned from the client, including their contact information, and attached is a picture of Delta, only a few weeks old, looking petulant over a recent haircut.]

[depthlesslock]

Delta's gone missing? What happened?

Finding missing people isn't usually my style, Florida, but I'll make an exception here. Delta's a short term friend of mine and I definitely don't want him in danger. I'll look out for him.

[the_informant]

You know who he is? Interesting. Well, that should make it easier for you to keep an eye out. I've been hired by his older brother to find head or hair.

Idiot tried to punch me when I gave him my standard disclaimer on how I handle returning abuse victims. I didn't say I thought he'd be abused. Just that if he was, here was what I was going to do to him.

The guy needs an attitude adjustment.

[depthlesslock]

Yes, I know him. Not well, but I know him. I'll keep an eye out.

Abused?! Jesus Christ, I fucking hope not. Good job putting him in his place. Fuck, I hope Delta's okay. Did he run away, then?

Sounds like it.

[the_informant]

At this juncture I do not believe abuse is likely. Opinions to be revised when faced with more information. But yes, I would be forced to conclude that he has run away and will not desire to be found. I will find him anyway.

[ambitious_muse]

I--more than I can say on the comm. Can we meet? I know it's a lot to ask, but if I send my address, would you come see me? Please?

[depthlesslock]

Well that's a relief at least. Man, I hope he's alright. Wonder why he's run away, that doesn't sound like the sort of thing Delta would do. He's too attached to his family.

[depthlesslock]

At your house? I thought your older brothers didn't want strangers coming over. But if it's alright with them and you really need me to come, then of course I will.

[ambitious_muse]

I need someone, York, but they're gone and I can't leave the little ones sleeping unattended.

[depthlesslock]

Okay, I'll come over. Send me the address and I'll be there as soon as I can.

[the_informant]

And yet he went.

I know better than any, York, that what we present is not who we are.

[depthlesslock]

Guessing his brother didn't tell you why?

Yeah, I got that.

[the_informant]

No. Only that he went. And that his clothes will be old, as the file points out.

[depthlesslock]

Dude, I've met him. I know what he looks like.

[the_informant]

So you're superficial enough to notice his clothes? Interesting.
