How odd.
I was told this wasn't unlike a phone at first—but it's closer to a record, isn't it? There's quite a lot of information archived if you're willing to look back so far. I wonder if there's a quicker way to search through it as well. . .
[ dead pause. ]
But that would be far too inconvenient to consider. Wouldn't it?
Ah, I'm straying from my own question. I meant to ask—has anyone got a book recommendation or two they could make for the local library? For a younger audience, of an unfinished education—mmm, and a rather impatient temper. He's particularly fond of adventures.
[ another tiny thoughtful beat—to go with a tiny thoughtful laugh. ]
In more than one arena, it seems! It's to be expected, I suppose, if that sort of reading's common here. . .

[ you hermit. ]

Don't take too long getting here.
[ And that's all Vincent gets by way of an affirmative, because he has, by now, figured out how to end a conversation on this thing. ]
action
behold, too, consideration: he raps on the door before he enters, all discretion. ]
action
He won't even say anything about Vincent taking so long to get here. ]
Well?
action
Haha, of course. He's behind.
action
What do you mean?

action
So, he isn't...
action
Not yet.
action
He is now, but won't be. ]
Nothing at all...will change, is it.
[ He'll find a way. He has to find a way. ]
action
Is that your wish, now?
action
I won't--
[ His voice stops, breath catching on nothing at all. ]
--I won't let him die again.
action
[ those hands settle on Leo's shoulders after all, while the master's distracted by his own misery. ]
It balances, doesn't it?
action
...we can save him, can't we?
action
If anyone could, wouldn't it be you? That much hasn't changed. . . though they've given us an easier solution than most!
action
What do I need to do?
action - 1/2
There's no need. . . to change anything you've promised. Only—consider how history's gone. Two Nightrays live after the rest of the line's extinguished. A place for Gilbert, and one other.

[ Not I can, because he needs to do more than be able. ]
I will.

That should be easy enough for now—ah. [ as if he's only just thought of it. ] Will you grow your hair out again. . . ?
action
[ Trying to deny things for so long didn't help him. Or Elliot. ]
He's already seen me like this.
