 It's all gone (OPEN REGARDLESS OF POST COUNT)

After the school went down and no one seemed dead other than Matt (bless is soul), Jan Di's first stop had been to check on her kinda adopted family. Luckily none of them had been at the school following the recent birth of the Makaila's triplets, so Jan Di could find a little sense of relief.

Since Ran's been staying with Jabby, she and Rhett were able to get patched up while they explained what happened...or at least what they saw. Figuring Absinthe has enough on her hands without Rhett and her being extra bodies in the house, the two excused themselves as soon as they could so they could 'look for the others'.

And so here they were, roaming Chicago on the off chance they see any of the others.

"I guess most of them would probably go home." she says, nursing her still-quite-sore arm.

"But the the ones with families in other countries are probably out there somewhere."

"But where?"

Rhett asks, hobbling along on a pair of crutches.

"I mean... you would think they'd show up somewhere... and... even though I hate to say it, you'd think some of them wouldn't have... made it."

"I don't know. Maybe we were really lucky on that front."

She doesn't want to imagine little kids being squashed under rubble.

"If I were lost and homeless I'd be where there's the most people..." she says. Which is probably here in the middle of the city.

He'd put his hands on his hips, but they're a little occupied.

"...So then... they're probably somewhere around here..."

Rhett looks around.

"Unless they're hiding?"

"I guess we don't actually know if the Empire's still around." she grimaces, looking around as well.

"Should...WE be hiding right now?"

"....I don't know."

He admits.

"I would think they'd be taking their time to see the results of what they did, but... I also didn't think they'd go after the academy itself."

"Well, maybe they didn't actually want to kill anyone. Like killing anyone was a bonus but the whole point was to tear it down?" she shrugs. She didn't see how the rest of the school fared.

"'cept for me. And you. We were supposed to die."

"I feel special."

Rhett snorts.

"I don't like that."

Jan Di frowns a bit, stopping in her tracks and looking at him.

"Was he just doing what he wanted or...would your parents actually let someone try to kill you?"

Rhett just stands there, propped up for a moment.

"Well... I don't see why they wouldn't. My dad probably doesn't even know, and my mom.... wouldn't care."

"At ALL?" she says, mostly hoping for his sake. It's too sad to think a mom wouldn't fell ANYTHING for their kid...even though she used him and left him by himself for so many years.

"I don't think so."

He says, looking away.

He's pretty obviously trying to hide how much it stings.

That's rough. Not having parents was kinda lonely sometimes, but having parents that don't care about you was probably worse.

"But you're not sure." she says, trying to leave a sort of...hope...there. Who knows. Maybe some day there would be an opportunity to fix it all. That is...if Rhett wanted that. Which by the way it seems to sting, she feels like part of him might want that. Maybe.

"Hey, let's check at a cafe or something."

"Not sure, no."

He shrugs, but gives a nod afterwards.

"Sure. Maybe they're mooching off the wifi or something."

He chuckles, trying to change the mood a bit.

"You got your phone?" she smiles, heading for the door and holding it open for him.

"I do."

He hops in ahead of her.

"A-thank you, my dear."

Once he's in, he props himself up so he can hold out of his phone from his pocket.

"Who're you hoping to call?"

"No one, just figured you might wanna take advantage of the wifi too." she chuckles, making her way in afterwards.

"We could rp." wink.

So meta.

"Oh?"

Rhett's eyebrows lift.

"I had no idea you were still into that."

"What else would they be doing?" she raises a brow, heading in to find a seat as she takes a quick glance around the place. No one she recognized yeeeet. But it would be nice to take a break. Maybe buy a coffee...

"Who knows."

Rhett shrugs, following after her.

"It's just weird."

He goes to slide into a seat, resting his crutches against the table.

"You used to sit around reading old threads all the time. What's the difference?" she smirks.
