[The feed clicks on, and there's a moment before Percy speaks.]
I was wondering -
[And when he speaks again, his voice is a little quieter, like he's away from the phone.]
Dad, I appreciate what you're trying to do, but it's really undermining me out there when you -
[ - he cuts off like he's been interrupted, but there's silence, and he lets out an annoyed huff.]
I'm sure you think you understand the twins' products, but I've spent the last month and a half working with them, and that product definitely utilizes a Substantive Charm -
[Silence.]
It doesn't matter that you've seen a hex a lot like it, because it's a Substantive Charm! I've checked it!
[Silence.]
No! Look, can you just - please just stay back here and - or go back to the flat. Don't come out onto the sales floor.

[The video feed clicks on, and Percy swings the camera around to show ... empty air.]
You can see him, at least, can't you?
[video]
No. I can't see anyone but you.
[video]
