[Kravitz very rarely makes himself known on the network, but this is one of those things he feels is Important in a way he can't ignore. It's not that he's looking for pity- rather, he just needs to inform people. There's no tragedy in passing. There's no fear in something he can't reach.

He wishes he could believe that anymore.]

Hello, uhm-- this is Kravitz. For those who may be looking for them, it seems Lup, Taako, and Ren have all departed from the island. My apologies to those who used their services or... simply knew them. I'm not able to carry on the magic they did, but I'll do my best in providing what you need if you were getting some kind of service or items from their store.

[He takes a breath, but it's shaky, and forces any other uncertainty out of his tone.]

I'd also like to remind everyone that we do have a library here containing many resources and a workspace for study. Contributions are always welcome, and I have a number of archived pieces from other islands for study as well. Feel free to contact me if I am not around and I will come to assist.

That... that is all.

[ooc: Kravitz has a shiny new library page on his journal now, if people want to get involved!!]

Ren is....?! [They weren't super close but Ren was on the islands before he arrived. She was an odd girl. Very childlike but with a good heart. Zidane had fun telling her stories and playing with her. At least she is probably home safe, but...

Well, Zidane is going to miss her. And he doesn't know if he'll see her again...

He puts that thought aside for the moment.] Right. Thanks for letting us know. I might come around and have a look at some of these archived notes if that's okay?

[deathfindsaway]

I'm sorry. She's... left.

[Here he is, continuing to apologize for something he's feeling the most acutely of them all. It's just easier to be on the outskirts, not to care or truly be part of it. Or well... at least to try.]

Feel free to come by any time, of course. I, uhm, that announcement was not specifically tied to this one, I just... needed to make both.

[atailoftwoworlds]

Hey, no worries. I'll be okay. [He doesn't know Kravitz's relationship with Ren exactly. But considering he's reporting her disappearance as well as the disappearance of two others, chances are that he's probably hurting. Zidane thought he'd better clamp his own feelings down.] And I can come over any time that works for you, I guess. If you're not uh....busy. [Which he realises is probably a stupid thing to say because WHO IS BUSY IN THIS PLACE? But it gives Kravitz the opportunity to decide if he's really up for seeing people.]

[deathfindsaway]

[It's a completely valid question, he needs to pencil people in around bouts of feeling horrible for himself and Stress Cleaning Absolutely Nothing.]

Please, feel free to pick whatever is convenient for you. I am just... organizing some things, for now. Nothing that cannot be interrupted.

[atailoftwoworlds]

Hmm.....maybe the day after tomorrow'd be good? [That'll give Kravitz a little time to himself if he wants.]

[deathfindsaway]

[Oh, he'll be trying to! Shame other people won't let him self-isolate into depression. Rude, that he cannot indulge in unhealthy coping mechanisms because people care about him or something.]

That's perfectly alright. I tend to arrive mid-morning and stay until the sunset makes reading difficult, though uhm, I can sometimes be there later.

[He has a feeling he'll be doing a lot more of that soon. Being by himself at camp at all is suddenly a cloying feeling he can't help but hate.]
