Oh, he's one of those siblings.

@Legend

It’s not just me. He’s bad with everyone.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Are you sure he's okay?

@Legend

*Shakes my head and sighs*
He doesn’t answer his phone like, 95% of the time anyway.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Now I feel guilty—

@Legend

Naw. He needs to check on his sister anyway, that bum.
*Says nothing for a moment and then rolls my eyes*
Isaaaaac. Call me, you doofus.
*Pulls the phone away and goes back to scrolling*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I... can't ask him to take time away from that. As much as I want to.

@Legend

He wasn’t doing anything involving that. But I know he was helping Rhythm out with some emergency instead. I don’t know, I went on a foray for a few weeks with no contact. Haven’t seen him or heard since I got back.
*Holds the phone up to my ear*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Okay... okay... That's easy to say. Now the doing.

@Legend

My entire family is basically gone looking for Dad. Isaac might be free? Though, he hasn’t called in weeks, now that I think about it.
*Takes out my phone and taps through it for a moment*

*Nods and sits down, tapping my foot up and down rapidly*
So we need to find someone to track the signal before it disappears?

@Legend

It’s definitely not a bad place to start.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I think so, it's just the stakes this time. It's everything I can do to not panic.

@Legend

Well, sitting down might be a start. Letting your nerves run away from you just means you're getting dragged along by the leash.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

What do you do to make your mind stop going a thousand miles an hour?

@Legend

I can't really say I do any one thing. But I can say it helps to just size yourself up. and realize you're not everything, you can't be everywhere, and you can't do everything. Focus on one thing at a time, and then put your head down and focus on each stone on the path. When you look up, you'll be closer, and then things will feel tangible... Does that make sense?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I think I'm going to be paranoid if I don't try.

@Legend

Well, let's give it a good think over on the couch or something. Might find that your thoughts are less jumbled when you are less jumbled.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I really wish he would've included instructions though instead of just anxiety. This stinks.

@Legend

I totally get if you want to try and figure out if there is any way to go check on them. But at least keep that in mind so you don't blow your heart up, yeah?
