[ said in the way of "not legally, but technically" and besides, everybody is willing to break the law for Narumin's sake, they need to step up and show how far they're willing to go for their friend too.
So yeah there's nowhere to actually move all the debris to since most of it was originally up in the air so they're just... going to push it all into a pile or something, pending further instruction from Komaeda. ]
no subject
Don't forget the deceased, separate them from the rubble so we have two stacks.
( a little morbid, but considering everyone else is also here, they have to signal letting them know that group one has already checked here.
he drops his hands down, and now he's looking on the ground for a lighter... )

if only komaeda could say that, but maybe some can survive, who knows, and so he'll grab someone by their leg to drag them along as well to the side — he doesn't struggle as much, but he brings about two as he wanders further towards the collapsed building or whatever, trying to see if there's anything that stands out. helena said low to the ground, and so komaeda gets down on his knees to push a few things away to peek.
anything around near the initial damage site? )
no subject
but no, y'all keep walking further and further away ]

as an update, bc i had to scroll my ass back up.
is there, a thing, a manhole... manhole? )
no subject
Hikaru gets maybe five minutes in of people lifting but they're dead weight and it's exhausting so they turn to call to everybody else, ] I'm going to grab a glass of water! Be right back!
[ and heads back to that restaurant with the squeaky floorboards with nothing underneath that Lucifer said not to throw anybody inside and technically they're not disobeying him when they step on the board and it snaps beneath their feet and they get swallowed up by the void. ]

Lucifer's "my child is in danger" sense tingles as he's walking away to go get Helena and then something horrible in his stomach churns and he briskly goes back to the restaurant and, yeah, let's just say
I veto Ori's decision to kill Hikaru, Lucifer fucking yeets himself into the void with wings outstretched and tries to grab The Child to bring them back to the surface because NO
NO!!!!!!]
no subject
by this point she's pretty much figured out this isn't where the small thing is...but maybe the large building towards the city center is gonna be on the way of wherever she's going....let's go until I guess a frozen car is gonna hit her by Lucifer logic]

if lucifer's not here, does that mean the stasis............ is over. )

—senpai! Let go, there was somebody else down there!
no subject
Lucifer pulls Hikaru up, cradles them like a baby, and then folds his wings so that he can fit into the tight space.]
Do not — do not — let go of me.
[And then Lucifer, who will do anything Hikaru asks, just yeets himself into the void and opens his wings up once he's through the hole so that they don't, you know, go careening into death.]
no subject
Focus, Hikaru. ]
I won't.
[ They squint into the darkness, so sure they had seen movement down here, or at least a—
a light, twinkling far off in the distance. ]
There! Do you see that, senpai? Way down below, a little to the right.
no subject
...
Oblivious to the fact that he is Warm™, Lucifer shifts so that they can head toward the direction of the light, which he does indeed spot after it's pointed out to him. We'll just say he's flying at a reasonable pace, not too fast but not slowly, they're sort of in a little bit of a rush here?
Hopefully no one else dies haha Clamor's gonna kill him]
no subject
Please be careful!
[shouted from the top of the void...don't tumble into the abyss and reemerge later as some shadowed unholy creature...or at least keep Komaeda from jumping in.]
no subject
( sighs, but he'll peek down there and NOT jump... )
no subject
Eventually, though, after several minutes of nothingness, the little light gets closer, closer, really nothing more than the size of a firefly by the time it's right in front of them.
... ... ... ]
Narumin...?
[ Hikaru calls the name out tentatively, but there is no reaction from the light. Uncertain, they reach out to touch it, not having heard Komaeda's ass-slapping adventures, but draws their hand back at the last moment and looks to Lucifer to decide on what the best thing to do it would be ]
no subject
Narumi, I hope to the Demon King that's you.
[They have to collect the soul somehow though, right... Lucifer looks at Hikaru and nods.]
Be gentle when you grab his soul.
no subject
[ Hikaru reaches out with both hands, cupping their hands around the light in the sort of cage you'd make when catching fireflies out in the woods on summer nights, shifting their thumb slightly to see the little light shining through the gaps of their fingers.
The light dims and disappears, and Hikaru slumps all at once in Lucifer's arms.
Zzzzz... ]
no subject
The soul is... uh... gone. Lucifer figures they've got it? Maybe? And so he'll fly back up and out of the void with Sleeping Beauty here.]
We found a little light that possibly was Narumi's soul. ...Hikaru reached toward it and fell asleep, but I believe we... have it. Possibly.
[That or Hikaru and Narumi are One now.]
no subject
( that's to helena as he looks towards hikaru asleep, and since they're gone, their guide is down for the count, and now they have to rely on one another. )
It's fine... Goto-kun will wake up soon. Should we put them in the back of a car so we can find the next location...
( which he guesses would be narumi's home? unsure. )
no subject
[stepping back from the void pit, she taps the end of her cane to her chin in thought.]
Please let Lucifer be in command of the vehicle, if you insist on it. There are still some other things I can remember as useful...
[the building and the thing up high still seem important...the police car though is probably just another threat.]
Particularly something best reached by someone with wings.
no subject
[He'll start walking toward a car... gives Komaeda a glance that says do not get them killed.]
I can drive if needed. Helena, if you would be so kind as to direct me to where you'd like to visit? I recall quite fondly that you enjoyed the first time we flew around, too.
