[It's rare indeed to see any sort of mistake from Schneizel el Britannia, but it seems that on this occasion, he's been caught out. The screen shows the camera's view, pointing upwards at the night sky, bright with stars. Black and imposing against that backdrop, the pillars and high roof of the temple can just be seen ( Read more... )

Schneizel?

[The incredulity in his voice is tempered with relief. The slightest coil of excitment makes it into his voice too, but it remains only small for now.

A few seconds of silence pass before Yosuke gives a wry chuckle.]

So you were part of it, huh? I'm sorry, man, I -

[And then he remembers that that meant that Schneizel must have seen his dream, and he'd rather not dwell on that for now. He changed tact.]

Are you okay? Do you need someone to come get you?

Yosuke.

[Said not without a smile, pensive as his voice is.]

It's alright. The dreams woke me, as I assume they did you.

[His eyebrow arches.]

Are you alright?

[He gives a sheepish smile.] Oh. You saw that too, huh...

Look, can it wait until you're back safe in the village? After all that I don't think it's safe for you to be out there.

As I saw my own, of course. But you needn't be so concerned; I had little desire to wait at the Temple for very long.

[ hellooooo prince-- I mean. ]

Oh, you're back! ... [ A slightly awkward giggle. Slightly. ] Well, that was probably a pretty weird way to wake up here again, huh?

It seems our hosts decided to bring me back once again, Miss Aino. I hope I find you well, despite those dreams.

Don't worry about me, I'm just fine, just usual! [ And she immediately grins to prove it. ]

The part I recognized wasn't really anything too bad either way.

Well, that is something to be thankful for.

Did you see them too?

I did. It seems that I arrived just in time to do so - how thoughtful.

I hope they didn't trouble you too much, Prince. Are you well?

Aside from their usual poor timing, and their rather ominous welcome, I am. [His smile is ever so slightly enigmatic, but then, it often is.]

[ It's a little more than an hour later that the video feed is activated in response and Valeria leans forward and into the candlelight, her arms crossed and at rest atop the pages of the book in which she had only just started to write. She had been of the mind to record every detail she could recall of the dreams and had she thought about it, she still was, but to find her the network visited by such a broadcast was... wrenching, in a word, both emotionally and mentally, but especially following dreams of that magnitude. What hints might be present in her facial expression, however, were rooted out in those minutes before she activated the feed so that it is, for the most part, a note of surprise and... something else, something not so easily placed that is featured in both her expression and tone. ]

Schneizel.

[ And she pauses a brief moment, considering her words very carefully. There are a great deal many things she could say, a great deal many things she wants to say, but she has not held her tongue and heart in check for so ( ... )

[ -- that voice. He recognizes it instantly, and when his lips quirk, the smile is small, still a little taut, but knowing and perhaps fond.]

Valeria.

[A nod of recognition, and his smile brightens, warms as though at the sight of her. He chuckles, an airy, flyaway little thing, expression turning a tad sardonic.]

Was it? Their's was less so, I must say. [But, that's hardly important against what's happening now. On to business.] I have. Perhaps you might update me on anything I've missed?

[ Valeria does not miss that smile, nor the change about it as he regards her and it's as much a relief as it is a comfort. She does not allow herself to dwell too long upon it, however, her attention fluid with its attraction to the matter at hand. That the matter at hand should be business is no surprise and proves in some ways a relief as it's all too easy to fall into professionalism and temporarily drown out the emotions beneath the surface. Inclining her head forward, she speaks, rapidly shifting through the relevant information she has collected during his absence. ]

There is little of significance to report with the exception of one of our number having potentially damaged our relations with the forest. The cause of this is likely a lack of information in our welcome to new arrivals as the individual responsible was amongst those newer to the village.

[ It's that or the individuals brought to Demeleier are becoming more hardheaded and prone to confrontation, but until she has evidence to support that claim, she won't be ( ... )

[Another nod, this time of understanding.] I see.

[He's unsurprised at the range of her tidings, the latter bringing out a hair of amusement amidst his concern. Unimportant as it is, he can already guess at the culprit. As for the rest, there's the dream to consider, something he'll have to think about once settled, and Myhrta will likely already have matters with the forest in hand.]

Thank you. It's been two weeks, right?
