Hey, I'm sure plenty of you all know Souji Seta. He's kind of a social butterfly. If you do, and you've seen him in the last couple days, can you let me know?

He hasn't been home since the 30th, and won't answer my texts, which isn't like him. I thought he was just spending the night with a girlfriend or something but now I'm worried.

Thanks!

xoxo, Rise

[She knows what the likely reason is. She watched Chie disappear not too long ago also, after all, but she refuses to accept that option until she's exhausted all others, okay.]

Hey, what are friends for?

Looks like you've got a lot of people ready to help you out, too.

[betheirstrength]

Yeah... yeah I do.

[She's kind of starting to tear up over it, actually.]

I know a lot of awesome people. I guess I have made a lot of friends, haven't I? You're a good one, though, Kairi-chan.

[princessascended]

I do my best.

You have this many friends because you're really easy to make friends with, Rise. We're all lucky to have you in our lives.

[betheirstrength]

I'm really happy you see me that way. That's what I want to be.

[princessascended]

Well, I mean every word. So don't hesitate to come to us if you need us.

I mean... I probably shouldn't speak for everyone else, but hey, they're already here proving me right, aren't they?

[betheirstrength]

I think at least most of them wouldn't mind you speaking for everyone.

[She remembers how intense Kairi is about friendship. It means a lot. Kairi is wise.]

It helps a lot, seeing everyone all here, helping and checking in. It really does.

[princessascended]

Good. As long as you know you don't have to be alone right now. That you're surrounded by people who care about you.

I'd hug you, but I'm afraid my arms don't stretch quite that far.

[betheirstrength]

I feel the love, don't you worry about that <3

I can't even tell you how special all of you are to me.

[princessascended]

Well you know where to go if you need to feel it more directly.

Right back at you. <3
