day 219: voice | open
Well, that was unexpected.

[ the very confident and ultimately extremely british voice sounds rather less frightened than it likely should, considering the person attached to it just got told she's in prison for the rest of her life. helen's not really buying that. let them try to keep her here. ]

I have to say -- [ she raises her voice just slightly, as though speaking to the communicator isn't enough. she'd like to catch the attention of the "wardens," if possible. ] -- I usually favor face-to-face discussions, like civilized adults. None of this "enjoy your stay" from afar.

[ she supposes it could be worse. she could be stuck in a prison with addison. she pauses for a moment to internally shudder at that. dear god, if addison's here, she'll probably throw something.

at some point she'll drop the bite to her voice, but that point isn't right now. ]

I suppose the term "extenuating circumstances" means little to you. Allow me to let you in on a little secret: the last time someone tried to hold me hostage against my will, a friend and I blew them up. I'd rather not have the same happen here.

[ and with that, she cuts the communication. bait set. time to see who bites. ]

[ oh. well then. her expression tightens a bit, eyes widening just so as her head tilts, only enough to show a warning. that is not a path to be lightly tread. ]

Colleague. [ there's a thing there. a thing neither of them want to label. ] He's taken to calling my staff members "children" for whatever reason. [ she knows the reason. comes from being well over a century older. ]

	Pfft. Boring. [ If he saw the look of warning from her, it's obvious that he doesn't care. Clearly was hoping for something juicy. Now on to the next interesting thing. ] So I hear you destroy things. [ Reasons why he keeps his conversations private. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she eyes him warily for that. not often someone actually asks about that instead of discouraging it. ] Only under the most dire of circumstances. [ he'll have to do better than that to pry information out of her. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Secret agent? Evil scientist? Temperamental CEO? [ He cants his head to the side and lets out a slight pout. Come on. Feed his curiosity. He's not going to stop guessing. Ever. And time is what he has. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she gives him a challenging sort of smirk. ] Could be anything, couldn't it? [ it's going to drive him nuts when she doesn't confirm or deny his guesses, isn't it? ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
