[It was a day like any other in House 28. Or so it seemed, at least. Asbel went to knock on Cheria's door, hoping to ask her if she wants to come with him somewhere, and it didn't involve training. He's definitely felt better about his relationship with Cheria recently than he has in the past, knowing he shouldn't try so hard or worry so much, and just be natural with her.

No answer comes from beyond Cheria's door. It's a bit weird. He didn't see her anywhere else in the house, and if she's stepped out, she usually leaves a note.

...Cheria? Are you in there?

[again, no answer. So strange. Maybe she's asleep? Normally, he doesn't enter her room without her permission, but against his better judgment, decides to open the door and come in.]

Cheria, are you--

[What he finds... Is an empty room.]


[Voice]

[His voice sounds hoarse when he goes to deliver the message. He's not sure why it hurt so much more for her to go home than it did when Sophie or Hubert left. Maybe it was because things had changed so much between the two of them? Knowing things weren't going nearly as smoothly for them back home...]

To anyone that might have known her, Cheria Barnes has left Luceti.

[The recording ends there.]

[When Richard hears Asbel's voice behind him, he's momentarily puzzled. Asbel had left his room? Shows how much attention Richard had been paying to things.

Still, he's glad that his friend is apparently feeling up to socializing with others, so there's a smile on Richard's face when he turns around to address Asbel, albeit a tired one.]


Asbel. I hadn't realized you weren't still in your room.

[Richard can definitely sympathize with that-- after Naoki had returned home the last time, the very first thing he'd done was go to the Battle Dome and fight against monsters until he was too exhausted to fight anymore. Sometimes it's just cathartic to get one's emotions out that way.]

I understand... are you feeling any better now?

[He's hoping the answer is yes, though he somewhat doubts that.]
