[Haruka’s used to Juri running off - she never has enjoyed the surveillance that he feels is necessary. It makes for a fun game of tag, but as of right now, he’s filled with more fear than he is excitement. There’s too much about this that doesn’t settle with him, and being unable to search the dome with his speed or familiars leaves him quite the unhappy puppy husband.

His gaze is calm, though, if a little distant. He’d really rather not do this, but…]

There’s no need to explain where I am or why I’m here. I listened to it already.

[The pureblood’s words are, at least, polite, if a little more curt than usual.]

I’m looking for my wife. We were together, so she might be here somewhere. [And he can’t find heeeer!] If you’ve seen a very cute, angry woman demanding to see the wardens of this place, please tell me. I don’t want her to worry.

[Patient, fond little smile.]

And, if you haven’t seen her, then… [A pause, in which that smile fades entirely and the concern in his gaze doesn’t compare to the worry he actually feels. Virtual or not... he is a very protective father.] … could you tell me if there are children brought here, too?

[Haruka sighs deeply, mind wandering to all the possibilities. It’s impossible to feel relaxed, no matter what he’s told. His family needs him, the things he has tried desperately to protect them from with all of his strength a very real threat now. Who is friend, who can be trusted among the number of supposed criminals wandering this dome.

If they aren’t here, he’s okay with that. Juri and Kaname will be all right. Yuuki will be fine, too, with her mother and brother with her. It’s the worry that they might be here that keeps his feet moving, long after unusual fatigue has set in. Being without even his basic speed and endurance is such a hindrance…

The lonely pureblood puppy wanders through sector 4 (Yuuki would love the ice cream shop!), content in the orange jumpsuit until he finds out, one way or another, if his family is safe.

Looking among those walking by, he frowns, unused to actually wanting to get attention, unsure of who is appropriate to approach. It’s hard to tell who is a good source of information. Well, he has to start somewhere!]

Do you mind if we talk for a few moments?

[His aura is gentle and expression soft. He doesn’t want to eat anyone, he swears! He’s just lonely and struggling to cope with this.]

[Sector 0 or Sector 4 | open]

[Today, Bonnie is a girl on a mission: she'll be hitting up Bulls-Eye and, as usual, levitating objects down to her petite height so she can actually see them. She's also dropping by Nine White Orchids for flowers (a girl's apartment can never have too many).

Or she may be taking a break in Sector 0, taking forever by those street food stands and deliberating on what to eat. What should've taken her five minutes is taking her twenty-five...

OR maybe she's lost. That happens. A lost girl on a mission is still a lost girl, so don't mind the one walking ten paces and then doubling back five. She's got a sense of direction. It's just not very accurate.]

[Casa Salvatore | closed to Damon]

[Every girl's bedroom needs a personal touch. Over the past few days, Bonnie's added bits and pieces to the space to make it feel less like a spare room and more like hers. A new teddy bear - a black one named "Daylight" - to echo Ms. Cuddles; new comforters and pillows; and even a small collection of old books along a bookshelf levitated their way in, bit by bit.

As she's hanging up a painting of a forest landscape, she stops to admire her handiwork. It's not until she turns back towards the door that she notices her observer.]

Hey. You're back early today.

[Or maybe the time flew by; she's not really sure which. Bonnie beams, gesturing towards all her little touches.]

Well? What do you think?
