[Text; Locked to Jaune's friends]

I think Pyrrha Nikos is gone.

[People are bound to find out on their own if they haven't already, but it needs to be said.]

[Action | Nova City]

[It's possible to run into Jaune in Nova City. He's not paying attention to his surroundings, and he might not notice someone he recognizes at first. And if he doesn't recognize them, then there's a disheveled teenager who looks like he hasn't shaved, much less changed his outfit in a week wandering around.]

[ooc: if your character is on good terms with Jaune, he would have included them in the text. if you need me to clarify it further, feel free to pm me!]

[He's talking about Pyrrha's stuff, even the room because they shared it.]

I don't

I can't think about it right now.

I am too. I don't know what's going to happen. I could leave at any time. You could leave, so could Weiss. I think Sun's been here longer than anyone and he's seen more people disappear than any of us but he could disappear too. It's not just me. Any of us could disappear and there would be no warning. We'd just be gone.

[That right there is what makes Nora utterly sad. She's an orphan. She gets that people disappear and never return, and that it hurts. A lot. Nora hashed that out a long time ago. And now it's being thrown in her face again. They're all training to be hunters and huntresses, and they'll be facing life threatening dangers each time they go out.

But she doesn't want to dwell on disappearing or dying. She doesn't want anyone else to dwell on it. What would be the point in that? So how can she convince him not to? Their last conversation wasn't exactly stellar.

She doesn't answer for a while. Maybe hours later. But eventually when she does, there's this reply:]

Ok

[Nora just doesn't want to try and convince him otherwise anymore.]

I'm

[A failure as a friend and a leader. He would apologize, but he knows how hollow it feels to be on the receiving end when he's been the one hurt. He wishes he could be numb because then this wouldn't sting as much along with everything else. He feels defeated, but that doesn't mean he's not aware that Nora is hurting just as much. How can he lie to her? Always trying, believing that if they had enough resolve, they could accomplish anything is what left him this bad off. He doesn't want that for Nora.

It might hurt, but anything is better than the alternative.

So he doesn't answer until two hours later.]

give me a few days. ok?

talk to you later.

[He could try that, before he made any final decisions to where either he couldn't if the spirits really could bring Pyrrha back, or had no desire to anymore.]
