[ There's no video feed here and even the audio quality isn't great. It's like there's a degree of interference. And then comes Cloud's grunt. ]

--the hell am --? [ Yeah that static isn't clearing up. ] Can -- hear me?

[ Well Cloud sure hopes so! ]

Assholes --- me ---. Just woke --- and I -- no idea where --- -- --. Going to try --- break ---. Took -- materia and ----. Will just have -- --- them some payback.

[ Well it seems to go quiet on his end... Is that a good thing. Or... ]

( huh?

while karlach isn't the most technologically adept, she knows a distress signal when she hears it.

she speaks loud into her phone, hoping to be heard. )

Cloud! Hey! Are you alright—?!

[makoglow]

[ Speaking louder doesn't really do anything for signal issues, but thank you for trying. There might even be a static-laced huff. He's heard Karlach's voice anyway. ]

Yeah. I'm --- hurt or an--th-ng. Go-ng to try t- f-nd a --- out.

[headhunt]

( the problem with the static is that karlach can't really make out what he's trying to say. it's a little too broken up, cutting in and out. was cloud hurt or not?

karlach feels a little like she can't breathe. )

You're not hurt, right? NOT HURT? Gods, if they hurt you, Bright Eyes—

( fire is already in her throat, hot with anger. )

You got any idea where you are? Who took you?

( it's hard to tell how much will get through, but karlach hopes if she talks enough that'll help fill in the blanks. )

[makoglow]

[ Of course this works both ways. Cloud can't really make out everything that she's saying either. He sighs, running a hand through his hair. They're all worried about him. Cloud's not sure that they should be? ]

No. I'm not h-rt. Ju-t ou- of -t.

[ Cloud's just a little light headed from whatever they must have used to get him down for the count. ]

Don't kn-w wh-re I am r-ght now though. Going to tr- -- br--k out.

[headhunt]

( karlach breathes a small sigh of relief. she cannot hear everything, but she can at least hear cloud confirm that he's not hurt. she's far less worried about him if that's the case. cloud is still another soldier. )

OK, OK, OK, OK.

( repeated to make sure one should get through. )

Call me if you need a hand. Just call me if you need anything.

[makoglow]

Y-ah. I'll c-ll onc- I'- ou--

[ It's still staticky. But there's a shout. Cursing. Multiple voices.

Sounds like Cloud might have been caught! ]

[headhunt]

( the connection cuts before karlach can shout anything worthwhile at her shellphone. she'd only just gotten a taste of relief before it feels like fire racing through her veins, alight with fury.

she shoves her shellphone away into her pack and goes to grab one of her axes instead. someone more intelligent that her could probably use it to better pinpoint cloud's location, but karlach has never done things that way.

karlach prefers the way of the most violence.

time to go find hot legs. )
