Communications

>> Hey, I know you're not...
>> Exactly at 100% right now.
>> I thought maybe I'd take you over a care package.
>> Girls day and Netflix and take out?
>> Do you think you'd like some company?

*ring ring*

To Corvo
>> I'm sorry about the other night.

To Michael
>> How are your new peep friends settling in?

(OOC Warning: some mention of NPC death in the comments)

It was literally nearly four in the morning, and Elizabeth had started drinking sometime around midnight. Alcohol wasn't even her thing, but the internet had told her what a good idea it was when it came to the dreams. Who was she to argue?

[Ring Ring, Corvo]

>> Hey, uhm
>> This is Elizabeth, I hope it's okay that I'm sending this!
>> But now that everything crazy is over and my wrist is okay
>> I was wondering if you wanted to show me more game things?
>> I have a replacement controller for the one I broke

But it misdials and lands on Wash's phone instead.

>> I'm at this party like you suggested...
>> Or at least I think I am.
>> Corvo is suspicious of it, though.
>> And I think I just saw a drug deal in the bathroom.
>> Am I in the wrong place?

>> Enjoying Paris?

>> I need to pick a fancy dress for dinner in a couple days.
>> What do you think of this?
>> picture of Liz in the dress

Text to Remy
>> Where are we meeting?
>> Wednesday still works for you, right?

Text to Booker
>> I might have promised to be naked around a guy who will also be naked.
>> Because he's really pretty and I want to be able to draw him later.
>> I'm right in thinking this is weird and unusual, right?

( Ring ring ring )

>> I hear you're the person young women go to for advice.

>> We're going to Paris next week.
>> Me and my father, I mean.
>> Was there anything I could bring you back from here?
>> A favorite wine, perhaps?

>> So when ARE we going to Paris?
>> You keep putting it off!
>> Even if you're
>> ... you know.
>> We should especially go, then.

» Okay, at the airport now and mostly awake
» This nonstop, nearly six-hour flight to New York is going to be great
» Try not to burn the OC down while we're gone, kids
» Though if Godzilla invades or something, let me know

( Private message to Emma, on the net )

>> I wish we'd gone to Paris like you wanted.

>> So I have a problem.
>> I've been stewing in this all day, and I didn't really know who to ask.
>> But I trust you with this kind of information because it's...
>> The dangerous kind.

>> Have I mentioned the Giga Slave to you?

>> Hello, stranger from the club.
>> I didn't get your name.
>> I wasn't sure that I was going to do this.
>> But recent events...
>> Well, time isn't a thing anyone should waste.
>> So.
>> You have things to tell me.
>> I'd like to listen.

» Okay, figured that once I sort of got my head on straight I could maybe talk about this
» I will in person, of course, but this is just a quick way to address the situation to all at once
» Want to thank everyone for their help and support while my Dark One father took over my mind and fucked shit up for me and many of you
» I also want to say that, yeah, I died and I'm back now because you all can't get rid of me that easily
» I'm looking into therapy because I think everyone does at some point, while living here


» That being said, my apartment was apparently trashed and vandalized and ransacked and all I have left to my name is, I think, a left sock and one can of ravioli the looters left behind
» Thanks for the selfies of the crime scene, Garrus

( Text to Pete Wisdom )

>> How are you doing in there?
>> I was thinking of stopping by.
>> Do you need anything?

>> Did you get that message?
>> It seems to have gone out to a lot of us.
>> But I'm guessing that Neal's dream problem is worse than he told me.

( Dark Subject Matter Under the Cut )

Middle of the night, hours after the Shabranigdo incident. (Trigger warnings for death mentions.)

( Unknown number calling Elizabeth Comstock... )

>> So
>> Want to cut down that tree yet?
>> Father daughter shit?

>> I'm out getting a few things...
>> But I wanted to know.
>> Can I just move back in with you?
>> It might be safer for now.

( Cut for Possible Triggers )

Ms Adler (Do you prefer Dr Adler?),

I hardly know where to start this. I don't think anyone enjoys admitting when they need help, but I think... especially after recent dream events, I do.

My friend Sam gave me a list of people who could help me straighten my head out, and you were at the top of it.

Are you taking new patients?

[Text to Booker, copying Elizabeth on it]
>> Hey!
>> Just so you know, we found your costume.
>> And by 'we' I mean your beautiful daughter and your beautiful roommate.
>> You're taking us trick or treating.
>> Thanks, man!
>> Really appreciate it!

[Text to Rogue]
>> BOOKER IS BEING AN ADULT AND TAKING US TRICK OR TREATING.
>> We're doing a Scooby theme.
>> COME WITH.

[Text to Neal]
>> I hope you're doing the adult thing and getting ready for tomorrow.
>> You and Tink gonna be out and about?

>> Hey lady.
>> Got any Halloween plans?

>> I didn't think it was possible.
>> But the dreams got worse.
>> I passed out on someone today.
>> Not exactly the way I would have liked to have met him.

>> [selfie of Lina with a thumbs up and the crater in Death Valley in the background.]
>> Nailed it.

>> I'm sorry to have to say this.
>> Living with you has been fun and...
>> It's nice having a friend like you around.
>> kind of like you're a big sister--
>> But my Condo is actually done, mostly.
>> And I just... need to move back there.

(if you think you're friends with Lina, then they got this text)

>> anyone else sick of this crap?
>> donuts still have tentacles
>> still eating the crap out of them.

>> she's here
>> in my room
>> she won't go away
>> she wont go AWAY

A portal opens up in Lina and Rogue's back yard. It looks as if an actual rip has formed in reality, and the wind around it whirls like a tempest before it opens up more widely. On the other side is a gigantic crate of foodstuffs, which gets pushed through and onto the ground.

Elizabeth soon follows. She looks exhausted as she pulls her cell phone out to text Lina.

>> Just in case you aren't home.
>> I'm back.
>> You have a crate of french food.
>> The grass is a little ripped up on the back yard.

To Lina
>> Are you sure you don't have anything you want to talk about?

To D'artagnan
>> Isn't Westminster the area you live in?
>> Are you and Athos alright?

>> Maybe it isn't my place to ask this.
>> But I can't help but notice that there has been a lot of...
>> Things blowing up lately.
>> And that IS your speciality...
>> If it's you, are you alright?

>>I am not like a puppy, am I?

>> I realize it's been more than a few days.
>> I wanted to make sure I didn't seem nagging.
>> How are you?

[Pretend this was sent earlier today]

>> You can officially punch August by the way.
>> Find it and blow it up.

>> Did she contact you, too?
>> If so, can you give me a ride there?

>> I believe I have someone that belongs to some of you.

>> Is there room at your place at all?
>> My condo is in ruins.

>> Ever seen the movie "Teeth"?

[OOC: referring to female genitals in comments. read at your own risk?]

>> I think we need to talk.
>> About a lot of things.
>> Please tell me you haven't already done something stupid.

[Thor]
>> You got money.
>> You know an amazing place.
>> Let's go, eat, and then break stuff at a bar.
>> Unless you're scared lil ol' me will out drink AND out eat you.

[Elizabeth]
>> Your pops looks like he's ready to leave the hospital.
>> Think he's gonna behave?

[Rogue]
>> HEY HOMIE
>> I met a mutant doctor specialist!
>> Maybe she can help you get a better grasp on the whole no-touchy thing?

>> Booker's doing better.
>> They let him go home.
>> ... Do you think I could come over?
>> I'm not really sleeping very well.
>> Having you around might help.

>> How is everything with your father and his friend?
>> I know it's late but I thought maybe we could grab a bite to eat.
>> To help get your mind on something else for a moment.
