[The post starts out with a good few seconds of nothing but fumbling, fingers pressing buttons, brushing up against the microphone. Someone's trying to find a frequency that isn't there anymore.]

I could've sworn that I---

If... if you can't reach a frequency, does that--

Lost someone?

[yankeedoodledr]

Yeah.

I thought I had him in my sock drawer, but I guess I was wrong.

[ys_cant_die]

The scientists must have been interested in your collection.

That's unfortunate, Hawkeye.

[...that's the closest you'll get to "I hope you feel better".]

[yankeedoodledr]

Damn finks, no sense for privacy. It's just like old times with Frank snooping around my foot locker.

...yeah. That's one thing to call it.

... Guessing you found your answer?

[yankeedoodledr]

As loud and clear as silence can ever be.

Oh, look, a poet.

Need anything, Hawk? I can't offer much more than a little company, but [...] you know.

[yankeedoodledr]

I'll be fine. He's got an outfit to run, who knows what'll happen in his absense?

(...)

While we're on the subject... I got ourselves another willing victim for the weekly conference.

[Henry doesn't reply right away.

He's not too sure how he should. It wouldn't be right to press the whole Potter subject, not when Hawkeye is being as positive about it as he is, but then again-. And he stops himself right there. Where could he be going with that train of thought? There isn't much more to say about it than that it's for the best, right? Hawkeye already knows that.

The first sound to be heard through the communicator is a small sigh. He does hope skipping over the subject is the ideal choice...]

Who?

[witchoftheweek]

My condolences.

[yankeedoodledr]

I appreciate the thought.

But it's not like he's dead, is it? Just retired.

[witchoftheweek]

I would not know.

Some did arrive here at the moment of their deaths.

[yankeedoodledr]

No no... he was in good health the last time I saw him. Back home, I mean. And judging from what he said the scientists took him long before that. He'll be fine.

...yeah. That... that much I know.
