[[OOC note: Technically this is supposed to take place in the early morning/late night hours of the 22/23, but since I don't want to wait another pointless 24 hours to post this (and therefore would be posting after the time this is taking place), I am posting early! :3 Please keep the IC time in mind, thank you~.]]

[The reply comes later, maybe by a few hours, who knows? I'm guessing Miles gave his travel mates a ride on Pess from the Union Cave to Azalea, so this message should get to Byrne by later in the morning.

He sounds sleepy, but in general, not too terribly serious or melancholy like he usually is.]

...I'm in Azalea right now, and I can get to the Pokémon Center to send her to you.

[voice] corvus_veritas February 23 2011, 04:59:23 UTC

[...And I am guessing the below has already happened by this point XDDD;; SO UM YES]

Alright thanks, I'll be waiting.

Did your trip there go well?

[voice --> video] miniworth February 23 2011, 05:02:10 UTC

It went fine. [There's a smile in his voice.]

[AAAAAND TAL IS SENT (idek how this works)]

And yourself? [He switches to video, so he could check if Tal got there safely.]

[video] corvus_veritas February 23 2011, 05:23:44 UTC

Ah, good. [Don't mind Byrne right now, he's messing around with the er...machine thing to receive her. (idek how this works either fff)]

Still rather exhausted, but it was worth it.

[There's a ping on the other end.] A-ha! I think I just got her.

[ Kay was half-asleep, but has been pulling long nights out of anxiety that her father would show up early and she'd miss him. It helps that her Noctowl's out to keep her alert every now and then, and when Byrne's voice filters through the 'gear, it just takes a sharp hoot for her trainer to sit upright and fumble for the device. ]

I'm up, I'm up! I'm coming right now!

[ she blurts it out before doubts and worries set in, her true feelings at the heart of it overpowering everything else. She wants to see her dad. ]

[....Honestly, Byrne wasn't expecting a reply from Kay until, you know, a reasonable hour in the morning. He's not going to question how or why she's awake at this hour, but no matter. She's awake, and obviously eager to see him. Right now. Uhhh.]

Are you--

[Pause. He seems to be doing this pausing thing a lot.] Kay, you sure you're awake enough to...? [LOOK WHO'S TALKING MR. 100 POUND BAGS UNDER HIS EYES]

[audio] yattagarasu February 23 2011, 05:06:41 UTC

I'm 136.9% awake!

[ SINCE WHEN DOES KAY EVER DO ANYTHING REASONABLE. ]

[audio] corvus_veritas February 23 2011, 05:32:34 UTC

[NEVER THAT'S WHEN even your Daddy's kinda like WOAH right now, but maybe that's just because he's all tired and anxious and still so surprised that you are actually awake at this time of night.

And yet he can't help but laugh a little because of how similar you're acting to a certain 10 year old self.]

Oh really? That precise, huh? If you say so.

[Somehow this is helping him relax. Just a little. He can do this, yes! He just needs to like...keep telling himself this thirty thousand times and maybe he'll start believing it.]

Okay then, so where are we meeting, Ms. 136.9% Awake?

[Action] Why am I always late? kings_thief February 23 2011, 08:20:49 UTC

[Locke gave Byrne the privacy he needed for his messages, choosing instead to check on Rachel and Tyros. When the other man is finished Locke walks back over and yawns.]

We should prolly go rest up now, ok? We'll both be busy tomorrow, no use be'in half dead too.

[Another yawn.]

[action] ....You post at 2:30 AM on a school night again and I will END YOU. corvus_veritas February 23 2011, 20:59:59 UTC

[Byrne nods, though he wishes he wasn't so nervous so that he could actually sleep tonight...]

Yeah. Let's go find a place to crash for the night.

[A pause.] Sorry again for making you travel with me at such an hour. [This has been the third or fourth apology by now, feel free to smack him for it. W-well, not really smack him, BUT...]

[action] Have I told you how much I LOVE YOU recently? 8D kings_thief February 23 2011, 21:20:39 UTC

[He shakes his head in exasperation, really, how many times were they going to have this conversation?]

Really, Byrne, I don't mind. Back home there was no such thing as 'regular hours', not when you're hunting treasure.

...and I think, to you, your daughter is a special kind of treasure..

Come on, I'm sure there's a place nearby!

[Ooh, watch out, Locke can be serious when he wants to be!]

[action] ಠ_ಠ corvus_veritas February 23 2011, 22:18:57 UTC

[A smirk. Can't disagree with that.]

Alright, alright, mister 'treasure hunter'. But first I need to go to the PokeCenter, okay?
