Accidental Voice Post.
Wha- [ there's a long pause after the first noise before a throat is cleared and a voice tinged with a Serbian voice speaks up. ] Miss. Excuse me, miss? I believe you may have found yourself in the wrong room. Or... [ pause ]

I have. This is not the Univerzitet.

	What year? 1886, of course. Why ask such a- [ goes quiet ] What sort of device did you say this is supposed to be? [ in awe ] Where is the power source? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[soft muttering to herself] 1886. 1886. I knew I should have paid better attention during my mom's boring history talks. [she clears her throat and clearly is speaking to Nikola again.]

You're asking me about the power source? Uh, yeah. No. If you want to know how to invade a government compound, or take out an entire army with one bullet and some string, I'm your gal. But the electricity stuff? Definitely your deal. Not mine. All I know is that there's a little thingy that goes into the other little thingy and bam! The PDA works.

[a pause]

Okay. Next question. Vampire or not?

	I would take it apart, but I imagine as it is the only thing allowing us to communicate at the moment, it is best to restrain myself for now. [ a pause and when Nikola responds, he's obviously confused ] The Sanguine Vampiris are long since extinct, my dear. Why are you inquiring about them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah. Good idea on the whole, uh, restraining yourself thing. We definitely would not want to not be able to communicate. That would be bad. [a pause and a sigh] And no reason, about the whole vampire thing. Just curious, is all. [another pause] Oh, and my name is Ashley, by the way. Ashley Magnus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Magnus? Helen never told me she had a younger sister. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[a muffled groan] Oh, come on! You are supposed to be a genius, Nikola! Get with the program already! [a slight pause, then she sounds more composed] Yeah. No. Definitely not her younger sister. I'm her daughter. [another pause] And it is not 1886, either. More like 2012. Welcome to the future. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	2012? But [ long pause, confusion in his tone ] That is far too long. You do not sound in your hundreds. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That would be because I am most definitely not in my hundreds.

[she sighs]

Okay. Long story short, mom decided that having me about the time she was supposed to have me was not the best idea. So she did her science stuff and put me on hold for a while. Cut a hundred years or so into the future, and here I am.

[a pause]

Give or take a few years. It's late, so my math is probably off a bit. The point is, Helen Magnus is very much my mother and you are currently in the twenty-first century.

[another pause; when she speaks again, it's obvious she's grinning slightly]

Now. Do me a small favor and go to the window. Pull back the curtain and look out, across the yard. You'll know what you are looking for when you see it.

And very much still a Magnus. Odd. I would have thought John would have snapped her up by now. Particularly if there's a century in there that we somehow survived.

[ pauses ] All...right?

[ there's the sound of the bed shifting as Nikola stands up and heads over to the window; there's a gasp of surprise as he pulled the curtains back ] That's... I had only just begun to formulate the plans.

	Yeah, well. He is my dad. But the story of why I have my mom's last name is really none of your business. [she's still smiling] Like I said. The whole electricity thing is your deal. Not mine. And oh! Welcome to the future. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Knowing Helen, she likely insisted upon keeping her own. I would not be surprised. [ a hearty laugh ] It is wondrous! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Voice Response choseherside 2012-04-22 05:01 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. That works. We will go with that. [a pause] And if you think that's awesome, wait until you see your lab. Although I am sure the tiny ball of genius known as Zoe that I can practically hear pouting from here because Kate is being all parental-shaped will show you that the first chance she gets.
