Has anybody seen Vector since that last time he posted? It sounded like he was going to head out right away. And I think he should have been back by now.

Also, does anybody know anything about what Hell is like here? Or how he would've gotten in?

I haven't been able to figure out how to get to the Summons Department to ask yet. I guess I lost that access along with the promotion.

So anyway, it'd be great if you could help! I'll owe you one! Thanks!

[Odd... but Yamato still isn't convinced the two are entirely separate situations.]

didn't he say where he went? [If he vanished with his shinki then doesn't that mean he just went on a trip somewhere... unless Joshua has no memories whatsoever of his time away from heaven, and that's worrying. And not at all an indication that he wasn't in hell, in Yamato's opinion.]

[sweetdeath]

He doesn't remember any of it.

[Tsuzuki's pretty sure that means that, if he was in hell, he wasn't just in hell. Something else happened.

What, he still doesn't know, but bringing Izanami into it seems like complicating things too much... except that Vector almost certainly is there.]

[okitactless]

[Yes, because Joshua is the most trustworthy of all the gods--

--but no, okay, even if Yamato wasn't a simple, fairly trusting sword, he has no reason to think Joshua would be lying. So they're still no closer to figuring that particular mystery out. But if Joshua came back, and Yuuki's god hasn't...

It's too much. There are too many variables, too many different tales being spun and Yamato can barely keep his eyes on one thread, let alone the whole gaudy tapestry. And if Joshua's back, then he's not in hell, so the point is moot.]

but what are you going to do if you get trapped down there or die? what will happen to your shinki down there without you [Yamato fully believes that any shinki worth their salt would sacrifice themselves for their god in an instant, but things happen. Which is the entire point he's been trying to make. Things happen.]

are you sure he even wants to be saved

[sweetdeath]

I won't leave my shinki down there alone.

[He's not taking his shinki, but he's pretty sure if he says that, Yamato'd never stop yelling. The reassurance'll have to be enough, even if Tsuzuki can see for himself how weak it sounds.]

I don't know if he wants us to go after him, but I can't leave him no matter what he wants.

[okitactless]

[That's not quite true. Yamato would stop yelling long enough to go get Shepard, so that they could yell together.

Guess what he's about to go do!]

why? [A cut and dry rescue mission, that's one thing. But if Vector didn't want anyone to go after him... what if he'd never intended to come back in the first place?]

[sweetdeath]

Because

[Because he hadn't been left alone to die. Because Vector doesn't have closer friends, it sounds like, except for his shinki, and Tsuzuki definitely isn't letting his shinki go to the underworld. There would be no way to get him out if anything went wrong.

Because the idea of just abandoning him makes Tsuzuki's guts seize up in knots.

He stares at the word, and amends it.]

I just can't. He might not've been the friendliest guy but no one deserves that.
