[around the same time as this.]
How do you- I haven't even-- fuck. [There's the sound of fumbling, his words muttered not actively addressing the network at first until-- ]
Hello? Shit. [There's a shuddering breath in and a panicked sound on the exhale of that same breath.] Has anybody seen Ben? I- I-I lost him! I mean- I didn't lose him, but-- he was here and now he's not and... fuck!
[He has not been having a great time in this house. His two days back home were nothing, and he's been in this place long enough for the worst parts of withdrawal to be hitting and. Well. Ben has been his touchstone through that and now he's gone and Klaus is not okay.]

Instead, she turns her attention to Ben's Brother. Who...will always secretly be Ben's Brother, even though she knows his name is Klaus. )
Oi, it's just this house, yeah? You didn't lose him. He's all right. It's just this stupid house.

Maybe. I dunno, I dunno, I-- it's... he's- [He groans and presses his palms to his eyes.] I can't do this.

Yes you can, Klaus, because you have to. Yeah? We all do. You're all right. Ben's all right. It's going to be fine, mate. Okay?

This? Is not helping him. Get off your arse and let's go look. Come on, then. If the only thing that'll make you feel better is seeing for yourself that he's fine, then let's go. Blaming yourself or yelling at me isn't helping him and it certainly isn't helping you, mate.

Right then. Let's go.
( Rikki holds her hand out to him. )
Here, hold my hand so we don't get separated. That's all we need. Come on, then. Let's find your brother.

Take it easy. We'll all figure it out. There are enough of us here that someone will have to find him. If he wouldn't leave on his own, perhaps the house moved him itself. Just take a few breaths and collect yourself. We'll all keep an eye out for him.

Klaus?
[ His first instinct is to ask him where he is, but he's been here long enough to know that won't help. ]
You okay? Are you with the others?
audio;
NO I'm not okay! Ben was here and now he's not and I think he's stuck in a cuckoo bananas crazy room, but I dunno how to get there-- WHERE ARE YOU?
[Klaus, no matter how much you yell at your brother, it probably won't make him materialize in front of you.]
audio;
Yeah, he told me. Padded. Said you knew about it. Let's find him. I'm on the first floor, near the staircase. Where are you?
