Take Initiative.

It seems things have been resolved - peacefully, if more than a little awkwardly for most parties involved. However, there's still work to do here, isn't there? Ryuunosuke shrugs after a long moment; tips his head up a bit. "Hey, Glory? Let everyone up." And apparently that's all it takes, though what that actually does isn't something that happens all at once - rather, panels slide out from the wall, forming a staircase up to that balcony they've been standing on. Mettaton doesn't really wait for the others to join them; he just leaves back through that section of wall they entered from, calling something back over his shoulder. "We've got another room to work from back here, darlings, this shouldn't take too long to work out." >Follow?

[ Hmmm. ]

Do you know if there's any easy way to manage that?

[trustharder]

MY FRIEND HAD TECHNOLOGY THAT WOULD ALLOW IT.
SHE CAN CONTACT ME AT ANY TIME.
THOUGH I DON'T KNOW WHY SHE HASN'T RECENTLY.

[penduli]

[ Maybe she's dead.


That seems sort of insensitive to say. ]

Who's your friend? Maybe we'll be able to find her out in some world. [ ...provided there's some people who agree to stay back to help with this. ]

[trustharder]

HER NAME IS HILDA.

[penduli]

[ ...oh. ]

The person the locket belonged to. [ Okay. ] How was she doing the last time you spoke to her?

[trustharder]

SHE WAS FINE. AND ALSO TO MY KNOWLEDGE NOT DEAD.
SHE MIGHT BE NOW, THOUGH.
SHE WENT OFF TO CHECK ON SOME THINGS IN OTHER WORLDS.

[penduli]

[ Yikes. ...hmm. ]

Do you think an ordinary cellphone could work with contacting you, or was it something more advanced than that? [ Pretty much everyone has a cellphone nowadays. ...uh, certain people aside. ]

[trustharder]

MAYBE. THERE MIGHT STILL BE DEVICES AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE THAT WOULD WORK AS WELL.

[Interdimensional smartphones just kinda lying around, because why not, this place is a tech haven.]

[penduli]

[ Hell fuckin' yes, guess who's gonna go look for some interdimensional smartphones? THIS GUY.

...he also has his ordinary cellphone but not the point here? Interdimensional smartphone sounds way cooler. ]

We'll keep an eye out for them. [ ... ] Thank you, Glory. For everything. I'll probably be in contact with you a lot, if you don't mind—even just to chat. I'm sure everyone else will be, too. And maybe some people'll even stay behind regardless, just to keep an eye on things.

You won't be alone, is what I'm saying. [ Whether or not that was fabricated—it's important. No one should be alone. ]

[trustharder]

I WOULD LIKE THAT, BLACK.
THANK YOU.
ANY TIME YOU WANT TO TALK, WE CAN DO THAT.
