[With a click, the feed turns on, and you're greeted with the mild, cordial tones of a man. A perfectly sensible, civilized man. A man that couldn't possibly be capable of throwing such a pretentious thing as a tantrum.]

[Oh, no, heavens spare the thought.]

...To those residing in room 3-23...and any others in the immediate vincity, I suppose...

Ah. Howl? I believe you and I should have a little talk, now that you are in your right mind.

Re: [Voice] 1/2

[notthehairplz]

[Ah, that voice is familiar...]

[OHSHI--]

Re: [Voice]

[notthehairplz]

[Calm, composed, and ohsocarefully blank. Yeeep.]

Really now?

Re: [Voice]

[cyprian_swan]

Oh yes~ A small little chat, love.

Re: [Voice]

[notthehairplz]

I find myself rather flattered that you would fancy taking such time to do so.

What is it that you might want to speak of, then...?

Re: [Voice]

[cyprian_swan]

Mmm. A small golden apple that I am quite sure you are very familiar with, love~

Re: [Voice]

[notthehairplz]

...Ah, yes. I do recall that.

[absently pensive. and still quite expressionless]

I do hope you managed to get that...disposed of soon afterwards, miss?

Re: [Voice]

[cyprian_swan]

After much difficulty, yes I did, right back to the sender, a Mr. Xerxes Break. I would think you are quite acquainted with him, yes?

Do not play coy with me, Howl. You were the one who laid that little spell.

Re: [Voice]

[notthehairplz]

'Acquaintance' is a rather judgmental way of putting that sort of thing, don't you think?

[...yeeeah, if you're trying to get him to outright admit he did it, woman, you'll have to try awfully hard :|]

[this man commits himself to nothing XD'']

Re: [Voice]

[cyprian_swan]

Or minion. Whichever helps you sleep at night love.

Of course I must admit, it was a very good spell.

[Dite does not care if he does not admit it. She knows he did it, and that is all that matters to her]

Re: [Voice]

[notthehairplz]

Well, to be frank, miss, I must interject there.

You speak as if I wanted to do such a thing in the first place.

[Good policy /o/]

Re: [Voice]

[cyprian_swan]

Oh? Were you forced to do his dirty work, then? How unfortunate.

Re: [Voice] aaahsolate. orzorzorz ;;

[notthehairplz]

'Forced' may be one way of putting it. There are other more accurate ways, I'd think.

[Long, looong pause. Mr. Break may absent for now, but if he catches wind upon his return there will be repercussions regardless.

But, on the other hand, there is an angry goddess awaiting a good reason to take vengeance on him here and now. And he has a feeling she's not going away until she gets a satisfactory answer. So.]

I take it you're fairly familiar with the concept of blackmail, madam?

[Voice]

[cyprian_swan]

[Mr. Pendragon may take comfort in the fact that if he gives Dite a satisfactory answer and is properly contrite, she may forgive him and even protect him.]

Intimately familiar, Howl.

Re: [Voice]

[notthehairplz]

Then, I imagine, you might understand my cause.
