[The comm clicks on to a heavy breath. There's a pause before Vie speaks, and when she does her voice is lacking it's usual enthusiasm. Instead Vie's tone is quiet but firm, an attempt at hiding any emotion but failing more than she would like to admit.]

Marco.

[Another pause. This is harder than she thought.]

You have my loyalty. I will aid you in whatever way I can, just as I did him.

[And that's all you get. She's forced calm for long enough for today. Vie shuts off the comm and lets it drop to the ground beside her.

Anyone passing along Deck 12 might notice a young woman sitting against the door of room 1212. She's hugging her knees to her chest and staring blankly ahead. Not wanting to believe that she's lost her closest friend once again, Vie is waiting. Silently she prays to every god she's ever believed in to bring him back, or at very least protect Godric and everyone else that's vanished without a trace where ever they are now.

Vie refuses to think any of those lost to be dead.]

(ooc: She won't be much for conversation right now. Vie's not taking the loss of Godric very well. This is the third time that she's let someone in only to lose them a short time after. She's got a pretty short fuse and is severely lacking patience. If she snaps, it's nothing personal. Vie's a bit of an emotional wreck right now. In time she'll be back to normal. For now? approach at your own risk. :<)

[She gives an enthusiastic nod. Sure she doesn't feel great just yet, but Vie's not going to stay sad around Goten. She won't let herself.]

Alright! Shall we go to Sergei's or the buffet?

Okay! [Thinking nothing of it, Goten slips his hand into hers to lead her toward the elevators. Everything's better now, right?

[Vie pauses to glance at him, amused at how Goten manages to not answer the question. Buffet it is! She's content to play the part of happy, for now at least.

Reaching the elevator, Vie hesitates. She really doesn't like elevators. Biting her lip, she steps inside. It's alright if Goten's there. Y-yeah.]

Deck 4, I think. Ah. Can you press the button?

[She'll try not to flinch when the doors close and the box starts moving.]

[Yeah Goten figured they could just go to both.

He has to reach up and stand on his toes to reach the button, but he manages and returns to her side immediately, holding her hand and idly chattering about the other pictures he drew of his brother, his friends and his mother.]

[She listens, glad for the distraction and throwing in her own comment here and then. When the elevator stops, Vie moves quickly from the moving box and feels a lot better once she's out. It's not that it's dangerous, just unknown. How it moves on it's own still puzzles her.]

[Goten doesn't really notice her agitation, just figuring she's still upset about Godric and instead doing his best to fill any silences with chatter. He is also STARVING -as per usual- and will break into a run once he spots the buffet.]

[Upon reaching the buffet, Vie realizes that she hasn't actually eaten since well before she heard Marco's message about Godric being gone. She doesn't feel like eating, but it smells so damn good.

Making sure that Goten is alright, Vie nabs herself and apple to munch on while she follows the boy around.]

[Goten happily loads up a plate with just one kind of food, then brings it over to a table and sets it down.

...then he goes back and loads up another plate with one other kind of food. And...does the same thing again and again, until there's almost ten plates full of food on the table.]

[Vie stops eating and just... stares.]

Goten? Are you really going to eat all that?

Huh?

Yeah, I am. [Obviously. 8| Why else would he cart it all over to this table? Goten digs in, though he eats at a SOMEWHAT reasonable pace.]

[Wow. Just... wow. At least it would explain where he gets all his energy from. Vie watches in awe.]

[After a moment Goten pauses and stares at her, a dinner roll between his teeth. He holds up one of his plates; did you want some, Vie?]
