[ It's now or never and although he was hoping that some time would push that towards now rather than never, Reid really doesn't feel like he's ready. He feels raw and exhausted and although he's pushed himself to go out and get some clothes that aren't borrowed from Karev's closet, he's so not in a place where public announcements are possible.

But he has to. Now or never. Movements dull, he reaches for the communicator. ]

...░m back. [ A stretch of static-y silence. ] I'm so░▒y.

[Yesterday was rough for Kitty. Rough like getting hit by a train is rough. After many, many drinks and even more tears she'd finally passed out—fully clothed—against ex-boyfriend Tyki Mikk. She'd peeled herself off of him early that morning—head throbbing and body unwilling. She wanted to just stay. Stay in bed. Stay away from the world and the artificial sun and whatever the day had planned, but she couldn't. She had to keep walking as Allen said. Even if she tripped and stumbled along her path every now and then.

She'd been out of contact with any DF business for about half a day so she decided she should check the network. She didn't expect much really. Veridical's announcement gave her pause, wondering if they should figure something out for dispatch, but it's the next thing she hears that stops her dead in her tracks.

It's his voice. Even through the static she'd know it anywhere, but today? It's not a new arrival day. Is it a trick? Is this a "distortion of service" somehow? Her heart feels unsteady. Beating faster and slower at the same time. There's even a slight tremble in her hand as she goes to connect the signal. She sets it to private, but it doesn't stick and she doesn't notice.

If this is a mirage she's still got to run toward it.]

Where are you? [Her voice is about as rough as the day she had yesterday.]

[ He's not surprised that she's the first to respond. Never expected anything else really and still it makes his stomach turn, two different lives clashing in that handful of words. There's a stretch of silence, probably too long for comfort but then he forces himself to respond and he forces himself to sound, if not normal then at least okay. ]

Sector ░. Where are you?

[Too long. Much too long. She can feel all that emotion stirred up in her again. Boy, you let yourself cry once and you really do feel like you might never stop. She doesn't want to be out here like this in public. She wants to be moving, but she missed the most valuable part of that. Her voice sounds a little desperate when she responds.] I didn't hear that! Sector 4.
