♦ seventh. voice; late evening.

[veiledviper]

[Lilith's voice carries over first, but there is another. She sounds...odd. It's calm as always, but there is something off about her tone. She sounds tired.]

Comments

voice;

[veiledviper]

[She's a little surprised -- there's paper rustling for a moment:] Ah...yes. She's been feeling better.

I am fine, thank you. And you?

voice;

[veiledviper]

I will, thank you.

You were not injured in the chaos, I hope.

voice;

[wantyoursong]

Oh, you have siblings, Lilith?

voice;

[veiledviper]

Mm. A younger brother and sister. Lionel and...Lillian.

voice;

[wantyoursong]

Wow, your parents are really into alliteration.

voice;

[veiledviper]

[There's a bit of a startled laugh.] Ah. Yes. My father's name is Lionel, and he wanted us to have...names that matched his own. Mother wanted me to be named Celia, I believe. But Father decided against it. [after a moment:] Old pureblood families have a fondness for themed names.

[whilethislasts]

Mm, I'm glad to hear she's doing well.

As for you, are you truly or do I need to kidnap you as well?

voice;

[veiledviper]

Thank you. I will send your regards.

I...do not feel any particular need to be abducted, no.

Re: voice;

[whilethislasts]

Ah, thank you~

Clearly this is because you've never been kidnapped by me before.

voice;

[veiledviper]

You are welcome.

With all due respect, I think that is precisely the reason why I don't feel the need to be kidnapped.

[cryptidwizard]

Was that...your sister?

voice;

[veiledviper]

Yes, that was Lillian. She sends me letters on occasion.

voice;

[cryptidwizard]

[There's a long pause.]

She's lucky to have you.

voice;

[veiledviper]

[a pause on this end too.]

Thank you. I am lucky to have her as well.

I...heard you were injured. Are you recovering?
