[Somewhere not too far from the lake south of the town, Raven is struggling to keep his balance. He collapses against the trunk of a tree gasping for air in the freezing weather. In front of him, just out of reach of his foot, is his journal.] Swear I left this thing on the table... [His voice is barely heard as he slides down the trunk a little further, eventually his foot is it's just in range for him to kick book over.]

Hey guys... anyone... This old man could do with a little help, it kinda hurts. I don't know where I am, it's got some trees... snow... I think... [He moves slightly to get a better look at where he is.] Yeah lots of trees. I think that might be a lake over there somewhere, I don't know it's really, really cold and I'm... gettin' awful sleepy.

[There's a long moment of silence as Raven just sits in the snow back against the tree trunk once again, flicking through the journals pages as he tries to stop himself drifting into unconsciousness. He eventually mutters something just barely audible before throwing the open journal down next to him.]

I thought people weren't supposed ta remember these things.

Not that long, ya seemed to have a pretty solid plan you were goin' through with!

Huh. Then I guess it won't be as annoying as I thought.

Oh no, it'll still be annoyin', where would all that fun be if it wasn't some kid of challenge?

... Well, whatever you say.

Is anyone else out there looking for you?

'Sides from Lexy, Vash is also out lookin' fer me as well.

... Alexei too, huh? [Well, now he's glad he decided to take his sword with him.]

Can't say I'm too thrilled about it, seein' what I discovered durin' that blizzard anyway. But if worse comes ta worse, it'll be a good chance to get it out in the open.

If worse comes ta worse, I'll see ya in a week with a penalty.

I didn't come out here to find a dead body, old man. Don't do anything stupid.

Askin' me not ta do somethin' stupid is like asking Estelle to burn a book.

[... Siiiiigh.]

If you die out there, I'm killing you when you come back. [More like punching him in the face, but still.]

Wouldn't be the first time, or the second, ya know I'm gonna start losin' count eventually. Us old folks aren't too good with numbers.

So I see. [He doesn't sound too amused though. And he's quickening his walking pace as well.]

Don't tell me yer actually worried about me?! Oh Yuri, I feel so loved~

I'm not worried about anything. [Yeah, he's kinda worried :| He's also angling the journal away from himself for now so Raven can't see that he got a little embarrassed at being caught.]

[Ok he's just teasing now.]

Are ya sure, cause rushin' out into this weather ta save this useless old man is a good sign ya might be.

[Meanwhile, he'll just be reaching for whatever excuse sounds best.]

I can't ignore it when a guild member needs help. Karol would get ticked off with me.

Jus' mention that lady friend of his and he'll drop it.

Too late for that now.

Ya could always find some other method ta distract him. Send him out into the freezing cold ta find his friends corpse!

Yeah, I'm sure I'll win points with that one.

Sure, ya'll win enough points ta buy yerself a bigger house.

But seriously, ya've got nothin' to worry about. This is... well it's far from the worse situation I've been in.

Unless someone builds a custom mansion for us, I doubt it.

And that's why I said I wasn't worried. [Clearly being worried and being a little worried are two different things. Somehow. ... It makes sense to him, at least :|; Either way, he's slowing down again, because ... well, the weather is making things disorienting and Repede can't seem to pick up a scent because of it, so moving fast won't help here.]

[Hmm I don't think Raven knows you've got Repede with you. ~~And Karol could totally build a mansion you know it.~~]

Are ya tryin' ta find me on yer own? Ya won't have much luck doin' that.

[Welp, he's about to find out.]

I've got Repede with me -- I'll be fine.

If yer plannin' on using him ta track me, that isn't gonna work. I haven't been around fer two weeks and I haven't... really moved either.
