You've reached Raven. This would be when you leave a message.

Hi Raven, my name is Jubilee. Jinx gave me your number and said you might be looking for a place outside of the newcomer apartments to stay. I'm fixing up a new place, or will be soon, and live in a kinda crowded house, but wanted to open the invite to you, if you're interested. Let me know.

[azarathmetrion]

(ahem) Hi, Jubilee. Um, thanks for the offer, I guess, but I don't really have any idea who you are, and to be frank, it doesn't often happen that a friend of Jinx's is a friend of mine. ...Still, if I am stuck here for a while, I will need a place. Maybe we can meet and you can tell me more about this.

[thelittlestbub]

[A soft laugh.] I wouldn't call Jinxy and I friends. More like sarcastic sniping buddies. I'm closer to one of the guys she lives with.

If you want to meet, that's cool with me. Name a time, and I'll name a place and then we can chitchat.

[azarathmetrion]

Well, that's better, I suppose. That would be this Claudio I've met?

I've got a lot to take care of right now... how about this weekend? Saturday, 6 pm?

Backdated to about half an hour after their conversation on the network

Hello Raven, it's Nelliel. It looks like the problem fixed itself and he's back to normal. I will still be at the warehouse.

[azarathmetrion]

Oh, I see. Glad to hear it. It's too bad I couldn't help you. Now I'm going to have a favor dogging m--er, trailing me for a while.

[gamuzadeclares]

[Nelliel giggles a little at the unintentional pun.]

You could always help me learn about human culture.

[azarathmetrion]

[She nearly said 'tailing' for trailing, too.]

I'm not a huge expert on the topic of what normal people do in the modern world. But I can help you with books and poetry and such. Doesn't quite seem like an equal trade, but... [She tails off. Trails off!]

BACKDATED TO THE 13TH

[ Yako sounds faintly distracted-- ]

Ah, Raven-- this is Raven's number, isn't it?-- um, I got you something, so if you could tell me where to drop it off, that'd be great!

oh good, a day before everything went crazy

[azarathmetrion]

[Call back.]

You didn't need to get me anything, Yako. But thanks.

I'm staying in one of girl-Robin's warehouses right now. Something kind of weird, by the way: she never showed up for our waffle date the other day. But anyway... um, where is this... [address!].

yeah ololol i still have to get around to having yako ring up EVERYONE ELSE she knows...

[topslug]

Does she do that a lot? Not show up, I mean. [ Shuffling sounds in the background as she goes, getting ready to go outside. ]

[azarathmetrion]

No, not at all. Everything I've seen makes it seem like she's just like my Robin in that regard. And he's never been late for anything. Ever. [Unless something's wrong...]

voicemail; backdated to the 20th or so

[topslug]

Raven?

Um-- this is Yako. I wanted to ask you something, but I guess I'll call back later.

[voice; a little while later]

[azarathmetrion]

[Ring ring.]

[topslug]

[ This time, Yako checks the caller ID before she picks up. ]

Hey, Raven. Thanks for calling back.

[azarathmetrion]

Hey, Yako. Sorry I missed your call. What's up?

text; IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT

[topslug]

Well, there goes the power.

Hope you're somewhere that has a generator, Raven.

text;

[azarathmetrion]

I'm scouting the city right now, but yeah, the house has a generator.

Where are you?

text;

[topslug]

In the community center. The power hasn't come back on yet.

Be careful. I know you can take care of yourself, but it's pretty nasty out there.

text;

[azarathmetrion]

I'll be extra careful tonight, but there are more people in danger tonight, too.

Last time the power went out, it was because of the attack on the Core, right? Think someone might have done something again?

Who else is around in the center, by the way? You're not alone, are you?
