[open] introduction to advanced relocation
She doesn't remember anything.
It's a jarring feeling, to have no recollection of the series of events that have led up to this moment - to her standing in Republic City, near the Spirit Wilds, still as she always is among the throng of people going to and fro. Could this be one of Varrick's ridiculous plans? Some transporter that had the unintentional side effect of ruining her memory in the process? No, that didn't sound right. She can clearly remember what they'd been working on in Zaofu. The gap in her memory seems to have started one night when she went to sleep and ended here, with absolutely nothing in the middle.
She needs a moment. Just a moment to duck her head, to push her glasses up, to try to force herself to recall something from the past... period of time. She doesn't even know how long she's been like this. When nothing comes to mind, she comes up with a second plan, just as she always does.
Straightening and feeling for her notebook (breathing a sigh of relief when she finds it where it always is), she approaches the nearest person she can find, tapping them on the shoulder. Brisk and efficient as always. This isn't a problem she can't fix. "Excuse me. Do you happen to know if Varrick is in the city?"

[Okay, shaking doesn't work. Should he... feel her forehead? Those are really the only two ideas he can come up with.
Her forehead feels... normal. Really he has no idea why this is a thing people do when someone's unwell. Also her bangs are in the way.]
You know you've had me worried SICK. I have no idea where anything is around here any more and you weren't there for me to ASK.

[Jeez, it's like a guy can't even react to his assistant disappearing for several months any more.]
...did you get shorter since you were here last?
