[ Maybe it's just the weight of being soaked making him tired, or maybe it's Riku's voice and presence, but Nirei's spiraling thoughts begin to slow. He leans against the tree trunk too, and lets out a long sigh as he runs his fingers through his wet hair. Unlike Riku, he wasn't lucky enough to wake up here with a jacket, so all he can do is slick off the rainwater on him and wring the edge of his shirt as best he can. ]

That sounds like a good plan. [ He gives him another smile, a brighter one this time. Still afraid, but more hopeful. ] I'll do the same for you, Riku-san.

[He pats his shirt pocket hoping his trusty notebook isn't damaged, but feels nothing where it should be. Nirei furrows his brows and looks down at his chest, realizing he was so caught up in the situation that he didn't notice it didn't come with him to this odd place. He tries to push away the uncomfortable feeling and digs through his pants pocket instead.

With a sigh of relief, he pulls out his phone. At least he has that. The battery isn't full, but it's over half, and more importantly: it isn't damaged, just a little damp. ]

We should avoid splitting up or losing sight of each other if we can help it, but just in case, maybe we should exchange contact info...

[ There's no signal on his phone. Nirei frowns as he tries to send a text to his friends, but nothing's loading or sending or anything. He looks over at Riku. ]

Hey, does your phone have data, or...?
