[24][action]

[silversnowfall]

[it is early in the morning when Nephry steps outside with her usual morning cup of tea. It's a little chilly, but there's nothing like a calm and brisk morning to wake you up sometimes. And if she shuts her eyes and forgets her wings it could almost be home...

At what she assumes are footsteps behind her she turns, gets halfway through someone's name, and then goes completely silent. The teacup and freshly spilled hot tea mark where she stood]

[[ooc: Kind of a heavy week in terms of work, so off Nephry goes. Hopefully she can be back by Thursday!]]

[Here's Anise, stepping outside and looking for you mama Nephry.]

I made blueberry pancakes for breakfast, Nephry! You should come in before His Majesty eats them all--...

Ah - Nephry...?

[teacup and footprints is all you get]

...

[Picking up the cup, then, and staring at the footprints kind of blankly for all of two seconds before turning on her heel and running back into the house, calling for the Colonel and the Emperor.]

[Sup.]

Anise.

[Oh hi Jade.]

Colonel...!

[poking his head out of the kitchen]

Yes?

[just fiddles with the teacup in her hands.]

--I think they took Nephry.

[There is a long silence before he fixes his gaze on the empty teacup in Anise's hands.]

Are you sure?

[She nods.]

I saw her step outside a bit ago... But she's gone, except for her teacup.
