[Phone]

[Marisa's not exactly sounding like herself today. In fact, she sounds a little freaked out though her voice is quiet.]

Um... What, uh... What happens when... ah. What happens when drones, um.... die?


[1125 Taylor (action)]

[Anyone passing by 1125 Taylor might notice the front door is half open and there sun reflects off of something thick and red dripping slowly down it.

[OOC WARNING: Marisa is now suffering the Postman's Curse for breaking into the post office. Any characters coming to 1125 Taylor may be subjected to bodily injury should they have physical contact with Marisa. PM me for more details if needed.]

I'll try...

Anything like this happen here before?

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

Similar things...

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Great. [You can just hear the B| in her voice.]

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

You'll be alright. Just remain calm.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

I'm trying.

Why isn't there a phone in my room? I don't want to be near... her - it - anymore. But I don't wanna hang up...

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

Houses, at the time, were not often built to have multiple phoneline outlets.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Oh. Damn. Maybe if I...

[Hear the static on the line as Marisa grabs the whole phone and moves it as far as the cord lets her.]

...you still there?

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

Yes. What did you do?

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

[Still a bit of static, but it's not bad.]

The cord stretches into the kitchen. Just enough that I can sit around the corner and not see... um... it.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

Is anyone on their way over?

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Yeah - Shiki is.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

Good. Someone like that is best for this situation.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

...okay. [A pause and then she says offhandedly...] And he thinks you don't like him.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

Eh? What are you talking about?

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Shiki told me once that you didn't like him.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

... What an idiot.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

That's kinda what I told him, ze. He has moments of being such a loser.

...but I agreed not to call him that anymore.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

I... suppose I could be nicer to him.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

I guess if he manages to make Alice happy, he can't be all that bad.

Though it's amusing to see him argue about how he didn't deserve to be book-smacked.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

He's deserved it every single time.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

I'm sure he did; I know I usually did when I got book-smacked. Though I swear he argues about everything.

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

It makes him completely insufferable at times.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

...I don't argue that much. Do I?

[wizardoftheweek.livejournal.com]

You're insistent, reckless, and hardly ever take "no" for an answer. You don't argue so much as you just push through things without any consideration for the consequences. So, no, you don't. But you can be just as bad.

[adropofjupiter.livejournal.com]

Part of my charm, ze.
