Ratio's missing.

And not just in the "they've left this world" way people tend to go missing, someone took him. And if I find out that it's one of you--

I'm finding him and there is nothing on this backwater dying planet that will keep me from destroying whatever is between me and him. That's your one and final warning.

Nothing, save the new research team. But I've been handling the black market side with ease; if they wanted to get to me through him they'd have a lot better chance at it not snatching him out of our hotel

I can't see anyone wanting him out of the way for that reason. the black market was my next guess, but you're right about that method not being ideal, so we can hopefully rule them out

maybe contact LILITH and see if there was any rift activity in the area at the time?

also, let's not go gunning for Eresh's head just yet, 'kay? she's not the sort of person who'd deliberately hurt Ratio

[stonehearts]

If you enquire with Mr.s Yzak and Dearka, they might be able to coordinate better with whatever it is they're doing. I'm not particularly interested in playing nice right now.

Were I inclined to being generous currently, I'm wouldn't say that she would have done it on purpose. But her utter incompetence? It's already nearly killed Ratio once.

yet if you're not careful, you may end up wherever the Doc's ended up, and in no shape to help him, dammit. get your head out of your ass and stop being so stubborn!

we can debate Eresh's flaws and possible involvement later, once we've found them both

[stonehearts]

At least I'd be with him--

1/2

[intertwinedfates]

and fat lot of good it'd do either of you! think how pissed he'd be if you got yourself caught up in something too! would that make him glad? I think not!

2/2

look, Adventurine, I know you want to be by his side, but hang in there for his sake, okay? we'll do all we can for you both
