[Johannes Cabal, a necromancer of some little infamy, has returned to Adstringendum. He is holding the PCD at an odd angle, thumb half over the camera, the old police station clearly in view behind him. His face is flushed, eyes glazed, and he seems to be dressed in pajamas.]

[A pause. And then.]

Johannes.

[Johannes is home, sitting at his coffee table and having a difficult time of catching his breath still when he does answer.]

I must have been popular.

neverquitedies October 2 2011, 04:54:21 UTC

You don't remember.

[Typical.]

I kept a journal.

[It's in his penmanship, but he's always so dubious of things in his hand that he doesn't remember writing.]

Mm.

Yuca Collabel.

[Johannes fixes him with a fevered stare.]

There's quite a bit on you.

[Private | Unhackable] neverquitedies October 2 2011, 04:59:53 UTC

As there should be.

[Careful, measured.]

We were- well, neither of us is quite capable of having friends- but we were allies.

[Johannes exhales a flat, humorless chuckle.]

Tell me, Herr Collabell - are you a hallucination?

[Private | Unhackable] neverquitedies October 2 2011, 05:02:45 UTC

Maybe I'm hoping to guilt a confession out of you.

[He coughs - he's obviously feeling pretty miserable.]

[Private | Unhackable] neverquitedies October 2 2011, 08:08:38 UTC

Would you like to come over for tea? Or I could make some there, if you like.

[Private | Unhackable] soulcontracts October 2 2011, 17:13:07 UTC

I'd rather not go anywhere until I figure out where I am currently, thank you.

[Private | Unhackable] neverquitedies October 2 2011, 18:19:28 UTC

[THERE SHOULD BE A NOTE IN THE NOTEBOOK.

ABOUT YUCA'S AWFUL TEA-MAKING SKILLS.]

Tell me what there is about me.

dammit :| soulcontracts October 2 2011, 18:22:14 UTC

[There is. :|]

These notes are for me, Herr Collabel.

[STILL PRIVATE] neverquitedies October 2 2011, 18:24:31 UTC

Touchy.

[He sighs.]

Right. When can we continue our experiments?

[ALWAYS PRIVATE] soulcontracts October 3 2011, 01:50:47 UTC

[Johannes presses his hand to his forehead.]

I haven't gotten that far yet.

Horst Cabal was here?
