[periphrasing]

✆CHANNEL FREQUENCY: 319.03058
DESCRIPTION: Don't ask her about the significance of the number of her frequency. It's something about the production code of her favorite episode of CPH and some other significant numbers from that show, who even knows...

✉MAIL BOX LOCATION: Mailbox is on her door, it's shaped like a chicken???
DESCRIPTION: She doesn't really see the point of correspondence by mail. You're better off hitting up her radio or finding her in person if it's something important.

[He still managed to reach other people... Yuya lets out a sigh of relief.] He wanted me to tell you he was--still here. Still himself and he'll be waiting.

[She probably knows that much by now, but it's the first thing that occurs to him to say.] He and Mr. Strange are close to each other. The Rose Queen is doing something to him. He's stuck, but she's not always there and... I don't think she's brainwashing him.

[Just hurting him profusely, physically.] Creation is protecting him, I guess as much as it can.

[periphrasing]

Creation?

[She sounds surprised by that. How the heck did Creation get involved? Like, SHE'S NOT COMPLAINING, BUT.]

Yes, he... he looked different when I saw him.

[There's a pause.]

Yuya. You're going after him, right?

[hippocarnival]

[He could explain it but her question causes his focus to shift to the more important part of it.]

Of course! [His voice is fervent, not out of any offense so much as just determined.] I'm going to make sure Steven's saved. I promise.

[Not alone, he's pretty sure, but he can't speak for anyone else right now.]

[periphrasing]

Good. I... [She's getting kind of flustered, embarrassed to be baring her feelings to Yuya like this but conceding to do so anyway because she desperately needs him to understand how important this is to her.] I want to help him too, but. I can't be in two places at once, and! Lapis needs me, too...

[She sighs.]

I guess my point is: I'm counting on you guys, so. Don't screw it up!

[Look, she's gotta be a LITTLE MEAN to counterbalance all that heartfelt emotion, okay?]

[hippocarnival]

[Yuya's a little quiet at first, but...]

Don't worry. [When he speaks, he's full of confidence and reassurance. Now that he's spoken to Steven, he's going to believe wholly. In all of them.] We're going to bring him back, safe and sound.

[periphrasing]

[It's hard to convey over the radio, but. She's grateful for this. She really is.]

You should get in touch with Amethyst. She can go with you and try to help... He also has some sort of warding spell on him, one that protects him from the Rose Queen's detection. If you can just get him away from her, and hide him or disguise him somehow, he'll be safe!

[She has no idea Yuya already knows this shit.]

[hippocarnival]

[Yuya knows, but he doesn't feel the need to stop her and explain that. Steven is her friend, and she just wants to help.]

Yeah, I'll do that. So you take care of Lapis, okay? We're not leaving anybody behind.
