OH, SHIT, CAESAR-- [ The voice sounds panicked since he is accesses the telepathy first to get obviously Caesar's attention before -- ] FUCK -- shit -- rocks! Ah! That hur-- ow! How long is -- goddamn hill! Ack! Ow-ow-ow-- shitfuckass!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

...Oof.

[ Long pause, muffled. ] I tripped.

[Something in the connection shuddered just then. After a moment, there was something akin to water, something warm coupled with the taste of salt. But once the shuddering ceased, bringing with it a newfound clarity, that odd sensory whatever-that-was stopped completely.]

...I'm sorry. I can only imagine how that must feel.

[girasole]

[All of that hadn't gone unnoticed, and this is a- well.]

Really, I'm glad you only can imagine and don't actually know what it's like. Given the choice I'd rather it happen to myself over you. Especially given what you've told me of your world. The worst I have to deal with on a daily basis are [vampires and alien shit] muggers and petty thieves.

[songbird_slayer]

Despite that, a mugger is nothing to sneeze at. Daily, though? What on earth do you get up to?

[girasole]

I grew up in a rough neighborhood.

[And this was the sound of facts dancing a merry jig.] It's not the sort of thing I try to dwell on, though.

[songbird_slayer]

Keyword being 'try', of course. To think of all the helpless people they target...

[She sighed.] The cabaret I'm employed with sits in a very troubled city on the lower levels. Muggers and the like in ample supply. The bouncers are paid well for good reason, but...

Criminals always find a way. Believe me, I'm well aware.

[songbird_slayer]

They didn't find a way around the alternative use of stilettos, however. That was an interesting day for the local authorities.

... [...he's so glad he never- he might be glad because that sounds like it could be fun, but probably not. He's probably glad he never had to be on the receiving end of that.

Okay.

There.] I weep for their souls and their future attempts at raising children.

[songbird_slayer]

Perhaps they'll teach manners to the next generation, rather than how to try and manhandle a lady who might be really good with a weapon.

At any rate, how goes your search? I do hope Okuyasu hasn't broken anything and he just doesn't know it yet- o-oh. Uhm. Maybe I should ask him to wiggle his toes or something!

[girasole]

This isn't the stupidest thing I've done in regards to searching for someone, so take that as you will. Still, I think I have an idea of where he is. Could you do me a favor? [...] If anyone you know is a healer, could you ask them if they could be...

[...] ...around? Just in case.

[songbird_slayer]

Yes. I'll ask around right now, and I'll forward your names.
