2nd [Visual] (backdated to midday 12/6)

Hello again! This is Pyrrha. I hate to be a bother, but...has anyone seen Jaune?

He's a blue pony with a blond mane, and wears armor and carries a sword and shield. He disappeared sometime this morning, and I haven't been able to find him.

His things in the room we share at the commune are missing as well. I haven't been able to find anything of his...the only thing I could find was this... [She holds up a green and white scarf.]

If...anyone has seen him, please let me know. I'm not able to contact his scroll either, and...I'm getting a bit worried.

All of his things?

[Wait, remind her of what all Jaune had on him here?]

Well...everything that he'd brought from home...His tent supplies are still here, though...

[If anything, Jaune would have taken that.]

Hmmm...

[She frowns a moment in thought and then smiles encouragingly again.]

...Look, don't worry. We'll find him.

[She really can't stress that last part enough.]

[She nods.] Right...

Double-check with that pony he runs deliveries for in the meantime. ...Patchouli, right? Maybe she'll know something.

[Maaaaybe some errand he's running would require him to take only his own possessions?]

I'll be back in Ponyville by tomorrow.

[Tonight even if need be.]

Mm...I'll do that.

[She gives another reassuring nod, and for a moment it looks like she might close her scroll and get a move on looking around Canterlot for Jaune, but instead she pauses.]

Hey Pyrrha. It'll be okay. ...Alright? You know Jaune better than just about anyone; he'll turn up.

[And she's not just saying that in the spirit of optimism. She knows this has happened to Jaune before and he came back, but she also knows what else can happen to ponies that go missing. And believe her, if Ruby were ever to go missing, she'd be breaking down doors and calling for a raid on wherever it is Calice is holed up.]

I...I-I know. I just...I can't help wondering if...if this time it's different, you know?

I...I want to believe he'll be back, but...I can't help worrying about...what happens if he won't.

Come on, Jaune's your partner and your team leader. He wouldn't just leave you guys behind here. Wherever he is, he'll come back.

[He seems pretty stubborn that way.]

[That managed a small smile from her, at least.]

Right...

And if he needs a little help getting there, then we'll all just...give him a hand, okay?

[In other words, if Pyrrha wants to organize a rescue mission later, count her in.]

[That got a brighter smile.]

Right...Thank you.

[That's the ticket.]

No problem. I'll let you know if I run into him in Canterlot.

[And give him a good sock in the shoulder for not leaving a note or something.]

And once I'm back in Ponyville, I'll stop by first thing, okay?

[Pyrrha Nikos, you are officially owed one (1) hug from Yang Xiao Long. Redeemable at any time. ...Not necessarily at a time of your choosing though.]

[She nodded.] Okay.
