dvidešimt du

[When Lithuania wakes up, he has to scrub his eyes. It isn't often he has dreams that bad or that vivid, but he doesn't think anything of it, walking around the quiet house, until he hears the television, and hears his name. Was that really-- But he's not gone, that's obvious enough. A mistake?]

A; phone (or action for 1333 Benny Road)
U-um, I'm still here, actually...

[Lithuania's tone is incredibly subdued. He's just not feeling up to much of anything right now.]

B; around Mayfield
[He's not entirely sure he actually has to go to work, if he's "not here". More importantly, there are more supplies in the store, so he should at least see to it that his house is stocked properly. He'll be out in the stores today. Of course, this just means a creepy doppleganger is taking supplies you could use, right?]

(OOC: Lithuania's disappeared, so respond to him as if he were a doppleganger!)

[His voice wavers--Lithuania is often emotional and panicky and even dramatic, in the right moods, but near tears isn't a state he enters often at all, even by country standards.]

I'm--I'm sorry.

Mmm.

[Estonia clears his throat, trying to turn upset into anger. But so often upset just means more uncertainty. He's not the angry type. Just the one with Baltic Luck to match his brothers.]

Yeah, I bet we all are.

[Lithuania makes a few stammering attempts at--at anything, anything that could convince Estonia he's real, that he hasn't vanished overnight, but there's nothing, and so all the words blur into each other and fall short before he's gotten them fully out of his mouth, his voice wavering and breaking in places, and it's embarrassing and pathetic and everything he's done in Mayfield has been kind of like that and this is just one more thing, one more hideous thing, the worst thing, the worst and it's his own fault

and he can't

[He bursts into tears for the first time in decades--the first time he can remember at all when someone else is there to hear him.]

[For a moment, he just listens. Listens to how much it hurts, to how much he feels like he's let Lithuania down. Somehow. He should have been a better neighbour, a better friend, a better anything. But now this happened and he couldn't fix it and- No. He's not doing that.]

Goodbye.

[He's hanging up.]
