[The vid pulls up with Will, looking more than a little determined. He has a pack strapped to his back, first aid pouch at his hip. Behind him is the glimmering wall of the Shimmer, towering and refracting in the midday sun.

Will glances back at the wall, before turning back to the vid.]

I'm going in...I'm not sure what's waiting in there, but I can't sit here doing nothing. I'm not going in alone, and we're planning to look for residents and see if we can get to the bottom of this. If you have someone in there, someone you want us to find...We leave in two hours. We'll look for anyone we get the names of.

[ There’s no dissuading Will when he’s like this, and honestly, if he weren’t so tied up with his own stuff, he would’ve followed suit. Instead – ]

Just be careful. [ “I love you.” ] I know I can’t give you ambrosia or anything but... I’ll be at the clinic when you get home.

Dad...["I know."] Make sure everyone there is okay, all right? I'll be fine...I'll have Nico with me.

That, I can do. [ his smile doesn’t quite reach his eyes. He can’t help it; he worries, even when he’s in more trouble of getting hurt than his kid. ] Watch out for each other, though I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that.

I mean.... I can’t say I’ve seen anything like that forcefield in a long time... but if it’s growing, there can’t be a good reason behind it.

Hey, we'll be fine. [And if his words and his grin are a bit more confident than he actually feels, well...Fake it till you make it.]

We're hoping we'll find some answers while we work to get people out of there.

[lesterzeppelin]

I just hope they're the answers you want. [ he grimaces, thinking back to some of his own adventures back in the day. ] But I guess you won't know until you actually go in.
