( This is where it went wrong, when he let Stephanie hug him, and she felt everything that was roaring through him burn up through his skin. Those same waves of heat and cold are sweeping over him, more heat now, because fire is comforting and it's so hard to control when he feels like this. It's not hot enough to burn her, just to make him noticeably above human temperature, but he's nodding slowly. It can't get much worse than this, can it? He's already a write off. )
Okay, okay.
A lion, a tiger, and a bear.
( oh my. )

Something tells me we aren't in Kansas any more, Toto.
( And thus Stephanie acquired a terrible nickname. )

[With the nod, she wraps her arms around him, not making him uncurl himself so much as just fitting herself against him. She is good at hugs, okay.]
You're a good guy, Donny. You deserve to be happy as much as anyone else does.
[And he really needs to stop beating himself up over things out of his control.]

You can think about that as part of your training.
'Night, Toto.

You're not making that a thing!
[Please don't make that a thing.]

( Hey, Helena was just quoting. Steph was the one who assumed she was the yapping dog.
But Helena just chuckles, and hangs up. IT MAY VERY RARELY BE A THING. )

( She is good at hugs. He is glad for the hugs, even with how his body heat shudders and lurches.
For a long time, he just stays curled up, hopes Steph keeps holding on. Eventually, one of his hands slips away from his legs to grasp onto her shirt, at her shoulder, half-hugging her back. She's confusing, but he can't let go, and some part of him is desperately holding onto all the things she says. )

[And then hugs and romcoms and icecream 5eva]
any chance you'd be up to looking around for someone for me?
sure. who am i looking for and what should i do if i find them?
for collette. her mission ended yesterday, but i haven't heard from her and she isn't at her place. if you do find her, let me know where?
[Well, shit.]
did she go on the mission with anyone and have you talked to them?
did she go on the mission with anyone and have you talked to them?
with gamora. i haven't yet, but that's where i'm going. hopefully she hasn't gone missing, too.
let me know what you find out from her, i'll start with the initiative techs at the transporter.
will do. let me know if you turn up anything, too.
Hey. ( Usually these days when she calls Steph, she sounds dumb and fond. This is a bit blunter. ) Has Caesar checked in with you?
[Oh, she didn't think to check if Caesar had contacted anyone else, she'd just headed off to start looking.]
I'm working on it, according to the people I've talked to at the Initiative she made it back from the mission and out of the Hold, so now I just have to figure out why she hasn't contacted anyone since then.
[For all that she's a little worried, she keeps her tone steady.]

( Ellie only just heard from Caesar, but she's heading out the door from Housing right now. Steph might be able to tell because suddenly, rain. )
Okay. Good.
( Trust Steph to get on something fast. ) I was going to check some of her haunts, look out for any injured animals.
( A girl in a wheelchair is more conspicuous than most of the things Coll can surely morph into. Unless it's a crocodile, of course, but it's worst checking out just in case. )

She was a coyote when she got back.
[Just so Ellie knows what she's looking for.]

she returned from the mission, but i've lost her trail for the moment after she left the Hold. gonna keep looking and i'll let you know as soon as i find out more.
Thanks.
( She's going to go so they can both concentrate on looking, which she figures Steph will know. ) Look after yourself.
( That, however, is a thing Stephanie needs to be reminded of. ) I'll catch you later.

You too, I'll give you a call if I hear anything.
[And then she hangs up so they can continue their search.]
