[For a few moments, there's nothing but faint shuffling noises. Then:]

Is it on? Oh thank fuck somebody help, I'm- oh fuck-

[There's a thud, followed several minutes of swearing and ragey noises.]

Goddammit, just get me out of this thing ARGHRHGH-

[It goes on for like that for a while.]

[ wait shit he probably can't see that, can he

Okay

Okay

Ellie's gonna do it

SHE'S GONNA DO THE THING

SHE'S GONNA USE VOICE ]

Are you in trouble?

[ She might be half-whispering like a tool. HOW INCONSPICUOUS ]

NO AND IT'S NOT EMBARRASSING IN THE SLIGHTEST SO GO AWAY

That's the most convincing lie I've heard all week.

[ Wow the sarcasm thing is a lot easier via voice

THIS THING HAS ITS BENEFITS OMFG ]

ANN- ELLIE YOU'RE THE LAST PERSON I WANT SEEING ME LIKE THIS SO SHUT UP AND GO AWAY

[ ...Oh no ]

Were you experimenting with your bondage gear? I've been meaning to talk to you about that.

[ penguining intensifies ]

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BONDAGE GEAR

Edited 2013-09-28 17:20 (UTC)

Good. You should start calling it three-dimensional maneuver gear, by the way. It'll create fewer misunderstandings.

[ Completely ignoring that she just called it bondage gear, obvs ]

YOU- Wait, you remembered something about it?

I got mine back. And took it out for testing last night.

[ Is there a hint of showoffy smug there

WHY OF COURSE THERE IS ]

Ugh. Like you needed more things to smug about.

[SO JELLY]

Does that mean you don't want lessons? You wouldn't want me smugging at you from a position of authority, after all.

...Seriously? You'd teach me?

Yes. Is it that surprising? If the "vermaxi" start showing up, we'll need people who can take down larger creatures...

[ Plus she gets to show off

N-NOT THAT THAT'S FUN FOR HER OR ANYTHING

WHAT IS THIS "FUN" YOU SPEAK OF????????????? ]

...Oh. Right.

[Taking down large creatures, huh? Like in those dreams he's been having? GREAT.]

If the idea is that unappealing, you don't have to. I can do it by myself.

No, it's. It's not unappealing at all.

[The problem is that it's a little too appealing.]

Then do you want the lessons or don't you? Assuming you ever get untangled.

...Yeah, I want them. I wanna learn.

Fine. I'd warn you that you're probably going to get a few bruises and scrapes, but those will hardly be a problem for someone like you.

Are you free Tuesday night? I don't have work then.

[Wow Ellie thanks for that you, it makes him feel so much better.]

Yeah, that should be fine.

[ LOOK HOW MANY SHITS SHE GIVES ]

Good. It has to be at night. Dead district worked last time and I didn't get caught, so we'll try that again. I'll contact you with an exact time and place on the night.

Bring your phone, too. Or a camera. I think that's all you'll need, I'm bringing the gas...

[ MUMBLE MUMBLE THINK THINK ]

...Wait, why do I need to bring a camera? What does that have to do with training?

You're aware sometimes seeing a familiar object can cause a pulse? Or that seeing a skill used can return memories of that skill?

[ pets fighty skills

pets them good ]

So you're trying to make that happen to people on purpose? You know there's a good chance they'll just get totally useless memories or something, right?

There's still a small chance that seeing it will turn someone from a weak, useless person into someone who can fight the vermaxi. We'll need as many as we can get if they really are what's causing the tremors.
