--can't get it to work! [A muffled voice.] Stupid thing doesn't like me or something...
Nonsense. [ A different voice cuts in. ] It works like a golem, only with more functions. [ Buttons are pressed, and the screen switches to video, revealing a blond-haired man and a blue-haired boy. ] Look, it works now.
Well it's still stupid, it should've

Oh well.
...and then there's the issue with him and Lenalee, oh boy. Lavi's just going to send Allen some sympathies, as... amusing as it's sure to be if it ever comes to Link's attention. Which it's pretty likely to.
Wonder what the brat Timothy would think of it... That could probably be amusing too. Hah~]
Two-spots? Timothy? Ya came here at the same time? How weird.

Bookman Junior.
I'll thank you to not call me that.
And yes, I supposed we did, even though we were from different places. [ He sighs a little. ] Where's Walker?
Reply
Maybe ya would, but that's no fun, Two-spots~
[He shrugs half-heartedly.]
Oughta be 'round 'ere somewhere. He'll probably contact ya soon enough, no worries. What places are ya from? And what happened recently?

[ Right. So you're not giving him straight answers, are you? ] Now would be a good time--
[ ...ah? He pauses. ] From Jordan. Walker and Tokusa disappeared. And Kanda. I was left with Tevak and Timcampi. [ He looks around; Timcampi is nowhere near him. ] What about you? And the others from our world? I saw their names and...their activities here.
[ Not all of it, though. he was still going through them. ]

He just has an expression on his face for quite a while, queasily looking down at his Hitomi and Link's face still there. Link was here and... looking for him and demanding answers already. Publicly and without a shred of hesitation.
Allen's not surprised.]

Well, Lavi's already spoken to them. That's good. It is strange to suddenly see both of them there, though. But at least it seems they've been here a while and Link's already knows basically what's going on, considering-]

This can only end badly.
Although Allen has his own questions that are a convenient way of avoiding Link's.]

[But Allen and Lavi have already contacted them, so she feels that she should greet them as well. Lenalee can't help but feel a vague sense of foreboding as she prepares to reply, smiling a bit nervously. A full explanation of what Allen has been up to here... She's quite certain that she doesn't want Link to know all that.]
Hello, Inspector... I'm glad that you're well.

Are you? You probably don't want me to be here.

[True, but not something that she would have said so openly. Direct and to the point, then. How very like an officer from Central. She keeps her smile on anyway, hedging.]
I don't wish for anyone to be stuck here.
Reply
Frankly, I might have you could prefer this place because no-one from Central was here...until now.

Hey! Hey kid, cool hair!

Thanks! Who're you?

Where'd you come from?

[He remembers what everyone told him about keeping the HQ location a secret, so he decides to go a bit farther back than that.]
I'm from Paris.

[Have a very blank and somewhat bitter look which could be read as an encouragement to get the hell out of here, except that you can't.]
So you got yourself some new brat to stick to, two-spots.
[Why yes, he's using the name Lavi made up, and possibly because you don't like it so much, Link. And even managing a jab at Walker who isn't even there right now.]
[..Sorry Timothy, you haven't yet been around the Order long enough for Kanda to bother to remember you, let alone your name.]
Reply
Nah. Must be nothing.]

Your blank look is duly returned. And no, he is not going anywhere. ]
It's Link.
[ Excuse him while he goes off to lecture a certain redhead... ]
New brat? We just happened to arrive at the same time, but from different places. The last I saw of you was at Jordan, Exorcist Kanda.
Reply
Excuses.
[He does cock an eyebrow slightly at the mention of Jordan, though. That's.. way back. And while he's still not capable of wrapping his mind around people coming here from different times, Lavi's told him this much so it doesn't really surprise him, even if he still doesn't understand it. Nor wants to, really.]
[And in turn, this reminds him of the fact he remembers last, Walker getting in his fucking way. Why, Link, weren't you supposed to keep him on a fucking leash? Someone's sucking in his job.]
Then you just missed out on a serious fuck up of yours.
