WHO: Thomas, Theseus, Victor, Kat, Lena and any other Kemps/friends who want to show up
WHAT: JAMIE IS MISSING, THIS IS NOT A DRILL
WHEN: Monday morning
WHERE: Kemp apartment
WARNINGS: ?

Upon discovering that his son was neither with his boyfriend, nor at home, Thomas and first called Victor and Kat. Jamie wasn't there either, and so Thomas informed them that they should come to his place, since he was going to have a breakdown in a moment. Victor had been a detective, so he seemed to be the kind of person to have around while breaking down over a missing son.

Thomas tried to remain calm while he called the rest of his family and Jamie's mother. None of them had seen Jamie either, and in the end he could only conclude one thing. Jamie was well and truly gone.

Thomas felt like he might not ever breathe again as he paced the floor of his apartment. Lena sat in a chair, looking miserable. Thomas wanted to wait until Victor got there to full on panic. Victor would know what to do. Surely.

	Victor glanced at Michael to make sure he was writing everything down and then he said, "do you know what time he left? If you don't know exactly, your best guess is fine. And did he contact you at all after he left, even a text or something?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Little after morning, almost around noon." he set his arms around himself and curled up on himself, trying not to break down. No one needed that. "He said he'd be back, but he never called no. He would, usually." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Seeing Theseus look so despondent made Thomas move over to sit beside him. He reached out to pat Theseus' shoulder, though if Theseus looked like he didn't want to be touched any more, he would stop.

"We've put a trace on his phone," Victor said, adding, "they should call me back soon and if the phone is on we could have a location. Theseus, was Jamie acting differently at all while he was with you? Did he seem agitated? And when he left, did it seem like he was worried about anything?"

He shook his head, unconsciously leaning into the touch on his back. "no he seemed happy, he was just going to get some more things that's all." His voice broke a little to that.

Kat noticed and reached her hand up to take Victor's. She knew he was doing this so he could help, so he could not focus on the scary possibilities but right now Theseus looked like he needed a break.

That was the end of the questions he had for Theseus anyway, but he understood the message Kat was giving him and was grateful for it. It was too easy for him to focus on one thing unfailingly.

Thomas kept rubbing Theseus' back as he said, "I was home all day on Saturday and Jamie never showed up here. He didn't text or phone either. I just thought he was with Theseus and decided not to come home."

"Did anyone else have any contact with Jamie this weekend?"

She smiled up at Victor and even she wanted to hug Theseus. He'd curled up into himself, like it would make it all go away. She knew a bit about his past and this couldn't be easy.

At the question she shook her head. "I texted him to hang out with me and Aoife, but I guess it never really got through." Kat winced a bit at a kick and bit at her lip, obviously worried.

Lena, who hadn't left Kat's side since Thomas had headed out to smoke, leaned in to ask, "do you need anything, Kat?" She wasn't used to pregnant people or babies and so she was sort of convinced Kat was now permanently in some state of requiring something.

Thomas swore under his breath and then he said, "he didn't contact any of the rest of the family either. Nor his mother who's on her way over."

"That helps us narrow down the time," Victor said, trying to sound reassuring. He was about to say something else when his phone rang.

He held up his hand and went to answer it. Then he frowned and said, "Thanks, Pete," before hanging up. "Jamie's phone isn't on so they can't trace it. They're going to leave an alert on it though, so if it turns back on, they can have us a location immediately."

"Fuck!" Thomas hissed, louder than he meant to.

Kat smiled to Lena, even if it was a little shaky. "no, I'm okay. Baby is just kicking a lot." she appreciated the concern however.

The curse made Kat jump a little and Theseus stood up and went outside to smoke again. Worriedly she toyed with her fingers. "We still have Hecate. And then Michael's Saint friend. Hecate'll just need something personal, so it'll be easy for her." she was trying to be comforting, while also being worried.

Still feeling shaky, Thomas looked slightly ashamed he had yelled. "Sorry. I can find something," Thomas said to Kat. "One of his paint brushes?" He would offer one of Jamie's sketch books because those were intensely personal, but he was a little worried he might never get it back and he felt protective over it for both Jamie's sake and his own.

"Anthony will require something personal as well," Michael mentioned and Thomas nodded. "I think I have everything I need for a report since I already have his staff photo. I could head back to the precinct now."

Thomas nodded and he disappeared for a moment into Jamie's room. When he reappeared he looked slightly sick. He handed over a paintbrush, but seemed a little hesitant to let it go.

She shook her head, "we're all on edge Thomas. It's fine." She didn't want him to feel guilty on top of everything. "But yeah. It's close to him. It'll work." It'd give Hecate a focus anyway. She knew the titan already had ghosts out as well.

Gently, Kat set her hand around Thomas' hand. "you'll get it back. I promise." She meant more then the simple paintbrush, and she hoped Thomas would know that.

	Thomas finally let go of the paintbrush and watched as Michael left. He went back to sit down, letting his head fall into his hands. "I just want him back," Thomas said, feeling desperate. "I don't know what to do with myself." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I know," Kat said. She could see Theseus pacing and smoking outside and guessed he felt the same way. "We all do. But this will help. She'll figure out where he is in no time, and then we'll get him home." (Reply to this) (Parent)
