_{[Ralph isn't beating around the bush today. The feed flicks on to show his huge, angry face, his brick-shaped brows scrunched up in frustration.]}

Okay, so, any a' you seen a disgusting little wolf boy with long black hair, sharp teeth, and purple eyes? Kinda looks like a mobile pile of garbage? He's been missing for about a week and he's not answering his 'gear even though his number's still in service and I know he hasn't been home because there are still french fries on the floor and--

_{[He stops himself and scrubs at the back of his head.]}

Anybody know if he's alright?

[paishodown]

Do you know where you last saw him?

[ A missing little kid is. Extremely disconcerting. ]

[rocketralph]

Yeah, he was, uh, in the hall.

_{[Which hall? NONE YA BUSINESS>]}

I think he was going out to play? Or meet someone? I can't remember.

[paishodown]

Well, if he was going to meet someone... Was it someone you know?

[ This guy is... kind of unfortunately vague. ]

[rocketralph]

I don't think so...he kinda does his own thing, you know?

[paishodown]

Yeah, but... he's a kid.

[ Asami sighs. ]

Is there anyone in charge of him?

[rocketralph]

...


...........No?

[paishodown]

Where does he usually... stay?

[rocketralph]

_{[OH Sega Dreamcast.]}


...


He likes the Pokemon centers. They have free snacks.

[paishodown]

You mean he doesn't even sleep in a house?

[rocketralph]

We're both travelers. Not really the kind to put down roots, y'know?

[paishodown]

Sure, but now he could be literally anywhere doing anything.

[rocketralph]

Hey, he's not my kid!

[paishodown]

Well, no... but...

Is he anyone's kid? Someone should really be taking care of him. I'm not saying that's you, I'm just saying that maybe someone should do something.

[rocketralph]

Beats me, he just showed up one day and started doin' his own thing.

[paishodown]

Did you ask him about anything?

[rocketralph]

Nnnnnno, look, he's his own man! I mind my business and he minds his!

[paishodown]

I met him! He's like... eight! Eight year olds aren't supposed to be left to mind their own business!

[rocketralph]

_{[Sorry, Asami, Ralph is still operating on Game Logic. Wrath is the perfect age to be the protagonist...or villain...of his very own video game.]}

Look, what matters is that we find him now.

[paishodown]

Of course! I'm just saying...

[ Never mind. This guy is kinda... irrational. Asami just sighs, still deeply concerned. ]

I'll ask around the people I know, and... keep my eyes open. I don't know what else to do, really.
