01 ✧ Video ✧ Backdated to Sunday afternoon

[sanguineseams]

[Senketsu seems so calm and collected when the video starts, but those who are particularly skilled in reading others' expressions will be able to tell that he's clearly unsettled.]

Good afternoon, everyone. I seem to have lost track of a friend of mine, so if you see her, please let me know.

She stands at about one hundred and sixty centimeters--five feet and two inches--with dark navy hair with a bright red streak in her bangs, and bright blue eyes. Her name is Matoi Ryuuko.

If you see her, please don't attempt physical contact. She's very strong, and may end up hurting others or herself. Just...let me know that she's safe.

[He lets out an uneasy sigh.]

Ryuuko, if you see this message...please come back home. I know it hurts, but you didn't deserve to be kept in the dark. Too many things have been kept from you before.

[assassinat]

People usually don't appreciate things being kept from them, especially if they are volunteering to help you out. There's a difference between what you said and what she's capable of.

[ Sighing. ] Any luck from others so far?

[sanguineseams]

She's only an anguished young woman. I don't want people going after her because they think she's a danger to society.

No one will get hurt as long as she isn't bothered.

And yes--a friend of mine found her current location.

[assassinat]

Good.

If she gets dangerous, people will step in. Vigilantes thrive for a chance to prove themselves.

Just in case that happens, call me.

[sanguineseams]

I'm not too worried unless said vigilantes are unscrupulous enough to agitate upset people for their fifteen minutes of fame.

...but thank you. I'll keep you in mind.

[assassinat]

[ He'd be surprised. There are at least ten she can name off the top of her head that would do something akin to that, but no need to make mention of it. Not now at least. ]

Please do.

[sanguineseams]

Thank you, ah..."Black Widow"? Is that what you prefer to be called?

[assassinat]

That's the name.

[ Then reluctantly, she adds on: ] I wouldn't give it out to anyone freely.

[sanguineseams]

Noted.

I apologize, I'm still trying to get used to the idea of aliases.

[assassinat]

It's not that.

[ Hard to tell who is her enemy and who is less of an enemy here. Not enough information has been gathered. Not yet, at least. ]

[sanguineseams]

Not that? You mean an alias?

[assassinat]

How to put this in a way that won't cause an elicit exclamation... [ There's the audible sound of her finger tapping against a hard surface in thought, easy to pick up by the microphone of the communicator. ]

I have done a lot of good things, but I have also upset a number of bad people. I wouldn't want you to shoulder my problems just by association.

[sanguineseams]

I don't know enough about you to end up getting in trouble...I think.

For what it's worth, though, I'm pretty good at shouldering others' problems.
