He dials it.

It goes to voicemail immediately.

"Hi, sorry I missed you! Leave a message and I'll get back to you when I get this, which usually doesn't take me long but sometimes I'm out of town! You can also email me at rachel_l_mavi@gmail.com."

"Hi, Rachel, this is Traceless, Toronto esper, calling on behalf of your niece Cara, who appears to be having an awakening, please call or text me back, or contact my agent Paula Bescond, as soon as you get this." And there's not really a way to call Aunt Rachel any harder, but he can email her at the provided address too, similar content.

There's no reply just yet.

(Cara continues to fidget, staring at Haru silently.)

"Do you have a backup emergency contact?"

Headshake.

"...roommate? Academic advisor? RA?"

shake, nod, shake.

"Who's your advisor, what's their number?"

"Professor Meadows..." poke poke poke her phone, and then she reads a phone number out.

Dial dial.

Once again straight to voicemail! "Hi, you've reached the work voice mailbox of Professor Irene Meadows. Please hang up and email me! If it's urgent, I will reliably respond within 15 minutes if you put URGENT in the subject."

Permalink

"...Cara, what's Professor Meadows's email address?"

Permalink

She reads it off her phone.

subject: URGENT - your advisee is awakening

I encountered Cara Mavi in the apparent midst of awakening today. I was unable to promptly reach her emergency contact (Aunt Rachel) so I'm letting you know also. Since she shouldn't be left alone and does not obviously need to be in the hospital I'm going to stay with her but would appreciate guidance from people in her life about how to look after her.

"Cara, do you need anything right now?"

Confused stare; no reply.

"When was the last time you drank water?"

Permalink

"...around 9 pm last night?"

Permalink

"Let's go find you a water fountain." Will she follow him into the main space of the library to hunt for one?

Permalink

She will!

Permalink

And will she then drink from the water fountain?

Permalink

When they get there, she reverts to staring at him.

"Cara, can you drink some water please?"

Permalink

drink drink drink! (Some gets on her shirt.)
