Plan 4 → [video] & [action]
[ Annabeth doesn't usually cry as a rule. Demigods don't have easy lives and most emotions can be rationalised away with the motivation of 'getting on with things'. But for some reason, this time whenever she thinks she's stopped crying somehow more tears come. It's not just that he's gone... it's also what he's gone back to.
She sits and stares at the jellies outside the bubble until she's sure she can make this video post without crying. Drawing her coat more tightly around her - Hades, it's cold lately! - she shivers and turns on her SFC for the first time since Percy had left. ]
So, I don't know how many of you knew Percy Jackson, my boyfriend, but he's gone. Just thought I'd do the courteous thing and let everyone know. [ She wipes quickly at one eye but manages to hold off tears. ]
[ooc: This is a network and action post! Feel free to respond either by SFC or with awkward cuddle curse actions out by the jellies. ]

It takes the knight a few moments to reply, mostly because she has mixed feelings about the situation now. Initially, she felt almost relieved that it seemed Annabeth was pulled together. That was a terribly selfish way to think, though, as that was only more convenient for Saber. She can't help but feel guilty for that type of thought arising. The least awkward and quickest way to move onto brighter topics would be to say she had been out for a walk, however..
"..No. I saw your message on the network and came to see you," Saber starts, her hands folding in her lap as she looks outwards, "and I.. apologize for taking so long to arrive. I was unsure of .. how to approach you.."
Saber's eyes close as she sighs mentally. That was definitely not the best way to go about this, but it was the truth. For something like this, Saber felt that digital communication would have been too impersonal, even if more convenient. This wasn't about her, though, and she needed to make it obvious she was here for Annabeth.
"I'm here for you if you'd.. whether you need someone to listen or.." the knight pauses, "..be here."
How else did you say that? That you just wanted to be there for someone? That was the simplest way to put it?
