[The feed clicks on with Theo dressed up in cold weather gear. Very cold weather gear.]

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

[He switches to some other language - a form of ancient Babylonian and curses some more. It's very inventive and you really didn't think that would be possible with that. Theo doesn't seem to be angry, more like annoyed. As if he was in the middle of something very important on a deadline. Which he was.]

Damnit all!

[For the observant folks, Theo is also now sporting wedding band.]

[Theo's been canon updated! It's been about two years for him.]

I covered some of your longer shifts, you know. On top of what I've got going? Try to stick around next time.

[This is how Al shows he cares, right? Theo has to smile because he takes the dead man's shifts most of the time.]

Sorry. Sorry.

I may have a way to make it up to you. Or at least a challenge for you.

I'm listening.

We need a drink for people who've returned to the city. Not the newcomers... though that might be useful too. But for those of us that have left and come back and father take it why do I have to be back here isn't there a drink strong enough to wash it away into oblivion before I have to face facts.

Because I know I seriously needed one. And the few people who've returned sounded like they've needed one.

It'd be a house special.

You go home for two years and come back thinking of that? I think Meyer's rubbing off on you when it comes to making a penny off something.

[ But really, thee may be a profit in that... ]

It's my father. I must have mentioned that he owns one of the largest multinational, multi-billion companies in the world back home, haven't I? He'll figure out ways how to make money out of air.

[Of course there's profit in that. Which is why Theo suggested it.]

Well, you found good company here then.

[ He thinks this over a minute. ]

Alright. Stay after your shift next time if you bother to show up. We can try a couple of things; see what floats and what sinks.

[He loves you too Al. In that he doesn't but he enjoys your company.]

I will show up. Don't worry. I have to pick up my place though. It looks like someone's broken in.

Must've known you were gone. Did they clean you out?

They tripped some of the traps.

[he's been moving around.

And then lets out a string of, well it definitely sounds like curses though it's not in any language Al's probably ever heard. But they're enough to send chills down the spine.]

What's going on over there?

Some ... [person who has sand and shit for brains]... stole my knife!

So we'll get you another one.

No. You can't replace this one. This is the one I use for my big necromancy spells. It's six thousand years old and insanely priceless. It's not replaceable.

So, what you're telling me is that someone in this city is walking around with an ancient knife that can be used to talk to the dead?

Well, they can't use it. It's keyed to me and my bloodline.

However they'll be haunted.

[ Totally not his problem. ]

You really gotta learn to stash things.

It was stashed! You don't leave something like that around where people can stumble upon it.

And bobby trapped.

Well, looks like there's a few kinks to work out.

If you need help looking, let me know.

Clearly.

I'm going to murder someone.

And I guess keep your ears open for anything. It's the best I can do for right now.
