Call under_thehood July 17 2011, 04:07:04 UTC

( ooc: After this post.)

[Ring ring!]

marked_songbird July 17 2011, 06:45:46 UTC

[she picks up after a few rings]

Hello?

under_thehood July 17 2011, 16:33:59 UTC

[There's a long pause from him before he clears his throat.]

Is this Oruha?

marked_songbird July 17 2011, 22:20:50 UTC

Yes, it is.

[the voice is a bit familiar, so she hazards a guess]

...Hood?

under_thehood July 17 2011, 22:22:32 UTC

Yeah.

[Where most people would announce what they were calling for, Jason's silent, wondering why he's calling in the first place.]

marked_songbird July 17 2011, 22:27:50 UTC

[luckily, Oruha has no qualms about asking]

What can I do for you?

under_thehood July 17 2011, 22:36:19 UTC

This counts as "chatting."

[An obtuse way of saying that he might want to talk to someone. And the fact that he might be a little interested in pursuing a friendship.]

marked_songbird July 17 2011, 22:52:30 UTC

So it does.

[she can read in between the lines, and she can't quite keep the delight or laughter from her voice, but at least it's kept to a minimum]

How has your day been?

under_thehood July 17 2011, 23:23:20 UTC

[Another pause from him.]

Fine... you?

marked_songbird July 18 2011, 03:20:18 UTC

I've been all right. Job hunting mostly. I went on an audition yesterday.

under_thehood July 18 2011, 11:57:58 UTC

[The whole small talk thing is weird for Jason so it takes a little bit for hin to reply again.]

You sing. How did it go?

marked_songbird July 18 2011, 12:06:51 UTC

[she laughs quietly]

Well enough, or so I hope.

[then, gently because she feels like talking to him is like coaxing a skittish animal:]

Was there something in particular you'd like to talk about, Hood?

under_thehood July 18 2011, 13:30:23 UTC

[Maybe a bit defensively:] No. We're just "chatting."

marked_songbird July 18 2011, 14:39:16 UTC

[that went about as well as she expected, but she couldn't blame him. soothingly: ] So we are.

[different tactics then. she didn't mind. she liked chatting, far more than he did anyway]

Say, have you been in the City long? One of my new acquaintances recommended a cafe - the Cat's Eye Bistro - to visit one day. Have you heard of it?

under_thehood July 18 2011, 14:43:35 UTC

I haven't. What sector?

[ the shift of the conversation away from him makes him a little more comfortable.]

marked_songbird July 18 2011, 14:48:15 UTC

Sector 5, on the corner of 4th and Egress Avenue, my friend said.
