Woods Outside the Citadel, Camelot, Wednesday Morning

[bitch_prince]

The phones were working. That warranted a trip out into the woods, under the pretense of going out for a ride with the Lady Morgana, to see how well their connection held up in Camelot. Contact some friends

Call!

[bitch_prince]

Please wait for the caller to ping in before ringing them up! For anyone who'd call/thinks they'd get a call, otherwise.

Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

Arthur was poking away at the buttons on his phone. At least he still had his address book in order.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

There was a text message waiting for Arthur when he got a moment to check.

Do make sure he's careful with the lightning, will you?

Karla was helpful!

Re: Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

...

Lightning?!

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

...He hasn't mentioned it?

Uh-oh...

Re: Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

No, he hasn't! What's this about lightning?!

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

So how's Camelot? Merlin told me of the attack. How goes the rebuilding?

Look! A distraction!

Re: Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

Arthur was making a face at Merlin from over his phone, oh yes. Lightning?

It is progressing well.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

Someone was quickly texting Merlin right now, too as soon as he pinged in.

That's good. You know, if there's anything you need quickly and can find a way to smuggle in without too much notice, we'd be happy to send it to you. I'm sure you have it well in hand, but if you suddenly find yourself short of lumber or something...

A long message would cover up the time it took to text Merlin, yes.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

There was a slight pause as Arthur... squinted at the message that just came in.

Lumber?

Camelot stands in the center of a great forest.

... Lumber was not a problem.

But thank you. I will consider the offer if we find ourselves in need of resources.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

...Shut up.

It was an example!

And like Karla knew where Camelot was. She was never allowed to visit, remember?

Stupid Merlin and the conversations she got into by trying to distract Arthur from the stupid things his idiot manservant was doing...

Re: Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

I understand, he sent back, and patted himself on the back mentally for being so understanding.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

Funny how Arthur could be thousands of miles and hundreds of years away and could still make Karla want to kick him something good.

She debated typing a few rude things into the phone before settling on, I'm glad you all made it home safely. Give Morgana my regards?

She sent that quickly before she could add and try not to be smothered by your ego.

It was a close things anyway.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[bitch_prince]

I'll make sure she gets them, he texted back - sincerely, honestly.

And then tried to retrace the conversation back to where it had started before Karla distracted him.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[glacial_witch]

Happy in her assumption that she'd successfully distracted Arthur, Karla sent, Then I'll talk you another time. You've probably got a ton of people waiting to talk to you. Bye!

Unfortunately, her getaway was impeded by the fact that he could simply text her--or worse, call her--whenever he got around to remembering.

Re: Call! - Arthur

[blondecanary]

Dinah had been bouncing in Milliways, and was now shooting Arthur a photo of the End of the Universe (north-east quadrant) and a ... maybe that was an alien squid? It was waving, anyway.

And a text!

Vegas, then Canadia, then Hell, now the End of Time. With waffles.

How's Camelot?
