[Let's skip the formalities!]

[You mean like making me think my brother's dead?]

I swear to all the powers in this world, Santa, if you had anything to do with this...

For the record, I parsed that in the wrong way and suddenly, Batclover mental picture. clausandeffect May 10 2011, 01:00:42 UTC
Hey, what the hell are you talking about? I'm asking where you've been!

She'd be too dangerous, I fear fourleafaxe May 10 2011, 01:52:42 UTC
What am I talking about? I woke up in some strange place and I have no idea what's going on! I wonder who was responsible the last time?

[there's a pause.]

Look... just... I'm sorry. What's going on?

Yeah. I doubt she'd axe criminals before cutting into fights. clausandeffect May 10 2011, 02:14:36 UTC
What? Man, I thought that... [Mildly irritated noise. Like a muttergrumblegrumpgrump. (And there's no really tactful way of saying, "I thought you possibly were eaten by someone, I'm glad you didn't enter someone's digestive system and in turn into the circle of life.")] Look, we're at 183 Daisy Lane. Me, your brother, Seven too. Lotus was here, but I have no idea where the hell the old lady went. Where are you?

Well, she's just a bit messy fourleafaxe May 10 2011, 02:33:23 UTC
Thought what? [She swallows once, when she comes back on the line, Clover's voice is softer. Still easy to hear, but she's lost the edge and squeak.]

Snake's on the way. I'm... glad you're alright. Really.

It's one of her endearing traits, apparently, judging from the polls. clausandeffect May 11 2011, 19:47:23 UTC
Yeah, same to you. [Congrats, it's the nicest thing he's going to say all month. Not that the moment won't last.] So what's the last thing you remember before arrivin' in this shithole?

Being adorable while hacking you to death is a good thing sometimes I suppose fourleafaxe May 11 2011, 22:43:57 UTC
[She understands being willing to do anything for your sibling. She really does]

I ... fell asleep in my apartment. That's all. I hadn't seen you since... the game, but that's been a few months. What's going on?

Pretty much! clausandeffect May 13 2011, 02:22:05 UTC
Wait, shit. Did you say months?

Link. For. The. Win. fourleafaxe May 14 2011, 21:58:06 UTC
Y-yeah? Why is there something wrong?

I try to provide, at least when I'm not lazy. clausandeffect May 15 2011, 06:15:25 UTC
Dunno. Maybe. [Shit he doesn't trust: the comm systems, so behold a change of subject.]

Anybody tell you anything about this shithole yet?

Reply

fourleafaxe May 20 2011, 03:54:41 UTC
... no not really. Just... getting a lot of strange stories. It'll take me a while to put it all together. Though I figure if you're here, Seven's here, and Snake, at least it'll be safe enough.

[she pauses and almost doesn't say anything at all]

Have you seen or heard from June?

...nah, I haven't seen my sister since I arrived at this shithole. [TOTALLY UNCONCERNED except not really. If the bullshit were poured on any higher the phones would start smelling.]

[She frowns] I'm real sorry about that, Santa.

clausandeffect May 25 2011, 07:15:48 UTC
Don't worry about it. What, why the hell would I want her in a place like this?

fourleafaxe May 27 2011, 02:08:51 UTC
Maybe you just get lonely sometimes.
