Ezio?! Ezio! Signore Machiavelli? Mario?

[A man’s voice, light and warm but so very confused, broadcasts with an abrupt crackle of static. Then, there is a noticeable pause, followed by a heavy cough and the scrape of debris.]

[As he expresses his surprise, a faint Italian accent hangs onto his every word:] Dio mio! (My God!) What a mess! Even my ( Read more... )

You eat apples. They don't carry you to other countries.

[Duh.]

[Perk! He looks about, seeing nothing but ruined buildings and a surprising lack of company. Well, assassinos were known for being pretty inconspicuous...]

Ezio? Come now, amico mio (my friend)! We are too old for these games!

[His voice wavers with uncertainty. Now, the device gets a nice view of a palm as he clutches it tightly.]

[Italian. He had a little Italian in him. He had a little of everything in him really. New York was pretty diverse and snatches of various languages hadn't been filtered out as useless when he consumed.

This man looked lie he belonged at... something. A Renaissance fair? In a play? While the virus struggles with his own lack of memory, he doesn't notice the stranger fumbling around.]

[He does just that. Leonardo is thoughtfully silent as he turns the communicator over, facing its screen towards himself, and-]

Oh! You are quite small. [And this stranger is most certainly not his friend. It's just one baffling development after another.] How does one fit in a box of this size? Most importantly, how am I to get you out?

Alex gives up trying to be patient then.]

I'm not 'in' it. It's just projecting my image and voice to you.

...Anyway, stop playing dumb. Whoever you are, you should know what a cell phone is. Were you brought here too?

[Another of the 'projection' explanations. So, that must be how the golems work! The Apple had shown images, too, and without the aid of a flame to cast a shadow. Are golems Pieces of Eden? But, how...?]

Though I've been known to play the fool whenever my clients come about, I assure you I am anything but! This-this technology is unlike anything I have ever known! Surely, you understand that not everyone learns at the same speed. I simply cannot fathom this strange contraption until I have had the opportunity to dissect it and study its inner workings!

[AND BY GOD HE'LL DO IT.]
