[There's a sound of shifting, and a voice swears under his breath. A tuft of alarmingly bright red hair comes into view over the device, followed by a completely bewildered face.]

...did I fall in another hole? "Use this"? What if I don't want to? Fontech is Guy's thing

[oflanvaldear]

My- Luke, you as well? It's very nice to see you again, at least!

[figurespeaking]

[Makes a face.] Natalia? Damn. Who else is here...?

[oflanvaldear]

There's no need to worry. There are only a few of us here, fortunately.

How have you been, Luke?

[figurespeaking]

[Slight sigh.] That's good. Somebody said that stuff is usually the same as when we left it when we go back, at least there should still be time...

[Well that's a loaded question. Disintegrating, dear cousin of mine, how about you?] All right, all things considered. You been okay here?

[oflanvaldear]

Yes, I have heard the same as well. It's a little comforting, at the very least.

I've been as well as I can be in this kind of place. I'm- very happy to see you, Luke.

[figurespeaking]

Something like.

... [Laughs a little, awkwardly.] Why's that?

[oflanvaldear]

I-

[Uneasy... she doesn't want to be the bearer of bad news.] I've been here for quite some time, now. I've missed you.

[figurespeaking]

[Bearer of bad news nothin', he knew he was dying. So he kind of chuckles a little.]

...You're a sap, Natalia. But I'm glad to see you, too. I mean the circumstances are kind of... [Looks around at the desecrated city, frowning.] ...bad, but it's always good to see a familiar face.

[oflanvaldear]

I quite agree.

[She sounds so happy... but becomes serious.]

Luke- what is it that you last remember?

[figurespeaking]

[Frowns a little.] We were on Eldrant, I'd been separated from you guys. Fell in a trap with Asch.

[oflanvaldear]

I see- I remember.

You are not wounded?

[figurespeaking]

[Gives himself a once-over.] Might have a couple of bruises, but I'll live. [...flinches at his own choice of words. Mind, he has no idea the thing is showing Natalia a video. rofl.]

[oflanvaldear]

[well... that's better than what she would have expected otherwise.]

Well, then! When are you going to come see Tear and me?

[figurespeaking]

...Tear's here too? [Can't decide if that's cause for great =D or great D=, given the situation.]

[oflanvaldear]

Mm. I'm certain she'd also be happy to see you.

[figurespeaking]

I can imagine. [If only because she and Jade know I'm doing that thing where I don't tell people things are horrible. Derp.]

Where are you guys?
