[the video flicks on accidentally. nill is standing in the doorway of her room, only her outline visible from the light shining in; her room is dark. her wings are flared. she just stands there waiting, one hand braced on the side of the door. after a minute or two, the video cuts.

about twenty minutes later, the text message comes:]

worried

I don't know, but we'll find him.
[ he wants to say that regardless of what happens, so many on this ship will protect her. on his part he will protect her as well. but heine is as dear to her as sam gamgee is to him. ]
It will be alright, dear Nill.

[she knows he means well, but it doesn't make her less worried.]
