Grandfather?

Grandfather, I didn't mean to get lost. I don't even know whose house this is. Please, can you hear me?

[Silence, then very quietly]

Please don't be angry, please don't be angry, please don't be angry, please don't be angry...

[This continues for a couple of minutes more, and then the transmission cuts out]

[Pause. Checks network id. Pauses some more.]

Hello?

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

[There's a thunkthunkthunk]

.....hello?

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

What's... your name?

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

[There's a pause]

Who's there? Is this your house? Come out, please?

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

[Oops.]

Look nearby you, there will be a small, black, shiny object. My voice is coming from it.

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

[There's a shuffling, and then:]

It's not attached to anything.

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

No, it's not. It's... new.

I'm Mara.

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

[There is a confused pause but okay]

I'm sure my grandfather is looking for me.

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

Perhaps he had to step out. What's your grandfather's name?

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

...Lord Kelso.

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

I'm sure his lordship will return, but until then... are you all alone?

[She finds this amusing, usually it's her that's gone kid-like.]

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

This is a very fine house with a very fine piano.

I am alone. I don't think my grandfather will like that I'm missing.

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

Yes, it is a very fine house. I've been there. Would you like some company?

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

Is this your house?

[voice]

[cry_reaper]

No, it belongs to my friend.

[voice]

[most_unspoiled]

I don't know if it would be very proper to invite you to someone else's home, Miss.

[There is a touch of hesitation. He really wants to do what's proper because his grandfather would like that]
