Um... I know people are probably still busy helping banshees and I'm sorry if I'm interrupting that, but I wanted to ask something. What are some other ways you use to contact people when the ways you have aren't working?

[Whatever you might be thinking, it's probably wrong. Xion just happens to have one particular friend who her messages don't seem to be reaching. He'd talked to her just before she'd left on her trip with Riku and the others, and now she's trying to do a better job of checking in than she did during her quest to Leathann.]

And if anybody sees Yuri, let him know I'm doing okay and want to talk to him.

The Corridors aren't safe either, really. It's why we always have to wear our coats when we use them.

[The Coat, Lightning might remember, as the one that she was wearing on the night they had both arrived.

It's her kind of way of saying that she can handle it. Or at least she's not... totally a novice. Moving between worlds was a risky business, no matter where you were from, really.]

You think we could get trapped there, if we went there to look for him?

[It should be more of an "I" than a "we," most likely, and yet as looking for Yuri is something they're undertaking together, it feels... weird to refer to it singularly.]

[heralding]

I might be looking at it the wrong way, [she admits.] But if the monarchs need us to fight, wouldn't they just grant you that power and have you bring him back? And the rest of the people who've been lost, too.

Gods are powerful beings. [That's kind of the problem. And even if she's one herself ...] So we'd have to consider ourselves in comparison.

Hmmm...

[That does... sort of raise a good point.]

Clarke said that it's the monarchs from the other court that break the ties. Maybe that make them hard to find?

[Truthfully she doesn't quite understand all of what Lightning means, about comparing and considering themselves. All she can really think about is what she can do.]

We can still ask...

[There's an unspoken, hesitant, "right?" at the end of that. She may not trust the monarchs, but she's willing to do that. For her friends, she's willing to do that.]

[heralding]

You can ask. It's worth a shot. ["You" and not "we." It's not that she doesn't want to go there, but she doesn't want to ask the monarchs for any favors. If she has to go find Yuri, she'll make her own way to do it.]
