Summary: T!Ed calls the number Clara gives him and ends up terrozing The Voice in search of Ren.
T!Ed: *curls up on the couch and takes the phone, studying the piece of paper that Clara gave him before taking a deep breath and dialing the phone number*
The Voice: *several clicks followed by a generically androgynous male voice* Good evening. Please state your name and method of aquisition of the dialed number.
T!Ed: Erm... This is Edward Elric, Envy's husband. I was calling to find out where he is..?
The Voice: Edward Elric, please hold for voice recognition. *long pause and some faint humming*
T!Ed: *blinks and waits, drumming his fingers lightly on the arm of the couch*
The Voice: *a click* Thank you, Edward Elric. Please state your reason for calling.
T!Ed: *rolls his eyes* I'm calling to find out where Envy is.
The Voice: I am sorry, sir, The Coordinator is currently out of contact.
T!Ed: ...What do you mean out of contact?
The Voice: The Coordinator is currently unreachable.
T!Ed: Well, yeah. I would guess that's what you mean by out of contact. *snorts* Has he left any messages at all?
The Voice: Negative. There has been no contact made by the Coordinator for nine days, seven hours, and forty-seven minutes. Company stasis was achieved at 12am, the morning of the twenty-second day of January.
T!Ed: ...I'm Ren's husband. You're part of his fucking company, you should at least know where he is and tell me where that little bastard went to!
The Voice: Apologies of the Voice, Sir. There is no name matching "Ren" in our current databases.
T!Ed: *takes a deep breath* Envy, I'm sorry. I'm Envy's husband. He left and I don't know where he is, and I was hoping you could help me find him. Are you sure he didn't leave any messages behind, or anything else?
The Voice: *a faint snort, akin to the sound made when one inhales a drink very quickly up their sinus cavity* ...The Coordinator's... Ah. Er, no. No messages have been recieved. As previously stated, the Company is currently in stasis mode due to the absence of the Coordinator.
T!Ed: Well, then, is there anyway that you could help me find him?
The Voice: Profuse apologies of the Voice, Sir. Attempts to all stations and contacts have been initiated but we are of yet unable to find any leads. To be honest, Sir, this is not within protocol.
T!Ed: Screw protocol! He's the one that brought me back from the dead and then thinks it's alright to just go gallavanting off and leave me here to rot! *snarls, rather surprised with himself* I want every person you can get out there finding him.
The Voice: *hide the terror hide the terror* Back from the- Sir, are you quite alright? I- I do not believe the Coordinator... gallavants... Sir. *some terrified hurried typing> I will send out further notices to every contact immdiately.
T!Ed: I'm not alright! *preeetty close to hysterics at this point* I can't remember anything, my husband's left me, I don't know what's going on with me anymore, and he's the only one that can help me at this point! I want him found NOW!
The Voice: *seriously contemplating just leaving and becoming a pancake chef somewhere extremely remote* Sir, ah... We will do our best- the Voice only oversees, there is- is no interaction. Company protocol- Er... stasis... um...
T!Ed: WELL TAKE IT OUT OF STASIS AND GET EVERYONE'S ASS INTO THE OFFICE!
The Voice: *harried typing and a lot more whirr-clicking* Mr.Elric, Sir, there is- there is no office... The Voice only oversees! Contacts are being hailed as we speak but there is nothing more-
T!Ed: Just do it! And if you find the little bastard, you can tell him that he's going to get the couch until I die again! *slams the phone down*
