[video/action] [backdated to yesterday]

[The camera is static, as the feed starts. Serah's sat at the living room table in the house, the flowers that Basch gave to Lightning just visible to her left. She looks tired, exhausted - and her eyes are red. It's not been long since she found out what happened the night before, after calling Basch, and why Lightning never came home. It's only taken her a few minutes to set up the feed, and she hasn't told any of her friends what's happened, yet. And even though she feels like her world is crashing, she has to let the people who cared about Lightning know before it does.

After a moment's quiet, she swallows, looking towards the camera, her eyes glassy.]

Some of you won't... know me. I'm Serah Farron... Lightning's sister.

Sis has- sorry, Lightning has-

[pause. every word that follows, her voice is on the edge of breaking.] Lightning's gone home.

[She's silent, before wiping at her eyes, and the feed ends.

A little while later, she can be found still in the living room of the house, arms folded across the table, her head buried into them. Next to her is a photoframe - of her and her sister, back in Bodhum - what she brought back from the world merger.]

Are you? [The answer is immediate, and quite serious. Fang's used to losing people - sucks, but it's true. Serah, not so much.]

[For a moment, she contemplates saying yes, she's fine. But the people she trusts the most, are the people she's honest with. So she lets out a soft sigh.] Honestly...

No. Not really.

[another small sigh.] I can reason, and come to terms with that she's... gone. But it still... hurts.

She's your sister - it's supposed to. [And Fang sighs, looking up at the ceiling with her arms crossed.] I don't know what I'd do if Vanille vanished... and Light, without us there, I don't know if she'll be all right.

[Light is tough, much tougher than most. But it took all of them to get as far as they did.]

Yeah.

[At the latter, she visibly winces. That's what she's worried over... a lot.] Sis has always been strong, but... she... I worry that she'll do something... reckless.

[There's a small snort at that.] Do somethin' reckless? We're far past that point. I'm hopin' she doesn't do somethin' too big for her to be gotten out of, honestly.

I know. [she briefly smiles for a second, before her face falls again.] ... that's what I mean, really. Something reckless, without thinking about her well being, or how she'll get out of it afterwards... especially when she's on her own.
