Case 53//Harry Dresden//video-backdated to around midnight

[The feed begins accidentally, bumped by the snuffling wet nose of the usual culprit combing Harry's floor for stray food. Harry's feet are in the frame, one of them swinging in time to a nice baritone rendition of Auld Lang Syne.

Harry pauses at the end of the song, getting up to walk a little tipsily over to the door, and peer out into the suite]

2012, really? That's... a long time.

Ehhh, future's not all it's cracked up to be. Same thing as the past, but they've got fancy mv5 players and such.

It was 1983 where I came from! Though I guess technology is as advanced as I thought it'd be by now.

Well, actually, I don't think this is anywhere on my home world. I don't know when it is now, I just know it's 2012 in my home. So I'm celebrating that and this universe can just go count its own sun rotational things.

[He frowns up at the universe]

Y'hear that? you're on your own.

[sorry, he may be slightly drunk.]

I can't help but get this nagging feeling that I know you from somewhere.

[You get all the confused squinting, Harry.]

[He squints back] The...hat seems familiar.

Harry Dresden. What was your name again?

Well, it's a very distinctive hat.

I knew I recognized you! Mine's Hong Meiling.

Oh yeah. [He grins] now I remember. Happy new years, Hong.

What've you been up to?

Happy New Year, Burn Notice.

I need a word with you when you have a moment. A not intoxicated moment.

No rush,
Veritas

Burn notice.

Haven't been called that in a long time.

Afraid this is an extremely intoxicated moment. The first available non-intoxicated moment might well be tomorrow morning. Or rather later today, given the circumstances.

Tomorrow, early, biodome? Experiment makes it difficult to recognize people. Look for the light, Veritas.

Actually I would prefer to talk to you a bit before possibly meeting in person, if you don't mind.

Contact me on this channel tomorrow. It's safe. We can arrange something then.

Alright. Talk to you then.

[Wayne and Garth move sideways through the thread waving their hands and going "doodly doop".

Then, Morning happens. A thematically appropriate rooster crows, and Harry grabs his 'berry, gripped in equal parts by curiosity and the theory that headsplitting hangovers go away if stubbornly ignored hard enough]

Veritas? you asked me to contact you on this line.

Is it really? My goodness ... though, I suppose that is at least in part subjective. Depending on the date it was last each person here was home. Still, I can't believe it's really been that long.

What year was it when you were home, Toris? Earlier, right, I remember talking to you about what happens to you afterwards...

[He can't quite hide that flinch.]

1863. Or, it was, I guess.
