... I don't want to die. That's why I-

Alice? Is that you?

[hangedhourai]

*Alice hears the phone... crap. She gathers herself together and picks the line up.*

Ah, hello. Yes, it is me.

[sonic_enforcer]

What is your address?

[hangedhourai]

Why do you want to know?

[sonic_enforcer]

I'm going to pay you a visit.

[hangedhourai]

You shouldn't come over if you're not invited!

[sonic_enforcer]

Then may you invite me? Otherwise, going house-to-house will take quite some time.

[hangedhourai]

The person you heard was... someone else. They're fine now so there's nothing to worry about.

[sonic_enforcer]

If that person needs help or would like to hide somewhere with others, please call me for him or her, Alice. I will be right over when you do.

[No, she is most definitely not buying it. However, she will play along.]

[hangedhourai]

... Yes, perhaps I will.

*After all she might want Fate to pick up Margarita...*

[sonic_enforcer]

Of course, it would be best for whomever it is that you come along. I may need your help, as well.

[hangedhourai]

.... We will see.

[sonic_enforcer]

Please take care of yourself in the meantime.

[hangedhourai]

.... Yes, I will.
