"...well, I suppose it's about time I make one of these things...

Hello, you have reached the voicemail of Lord Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi. I am unable to answer at this time due to some other business I have to attend to, but state your purpose and I'll get back to you whenever I find the time."

[I'm cool with any sort of one-on-one stuff going on here so long as it starts with a voicemail! Obviously we'll need to plan if our characters are in the same area or not if we want to switch to action, but you know!]

[ calling kayneth randomly just because - holy shit there's a voicemail.

THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. ]

Kayneth! You set up a voicemail! That's terrific! I kept meaning to suggest you do so, but I always forgot...but this is great! Oh, it sounds so professional, too! Except for the bit at the beginning, I mean.

[ totally forgot what her business was in the excitement, yes. ]

It's a lot better than being directed to - well, nowhere. That was always a bit of a bummer! And - hey! Put that down!

[ aaaand she hangs up. ...That's a useful voicemail, right? ]

[oh hey! this thing is actually useful, there's Megido.

...uh-]

Ah, hello, Megido. I'm usually not one for this sort of thing, which is why I didn't bother to set it up for quite some time... but I believe it will be useful in the long run, at least.

...What... er, happened there, anyway?

[ Someday he'll get a call that doesn't inspire that expression. Someday. ]

Oh! Sorry, I have...well, a recent batch of hatchlings coupled with a recent batch of inherited pokemon. They're still getting used to how things work.

[ And Admiral Rustwing might have picked up one of the babies to juggle. That might have been a thing that happened. ]

--Anyway! It's great that you did. I actually wanted to drop you a line about someone I thought you might be interested in meeting.

[ this isn't a matchmaking session she swears. ]

[...realistically, that will probably coincide with the heat death of the universe, but-]

...ah. No, I understand completely. Do tell, then?

[...also let's be real a matchmaking session would probably be welcome at this point even if he wouldn't admit it]

[ Maybe she will call him about something reasonable someday! ...Though admittedly most of her voicemail usages are happy birthdays or "are you alive" or random questions. ]

I don't believe you've met Captain Ash? He's basically the person besides you I speak to most about the nature of this place, and it occurred to me you two might be interested in speaking to one another, as well.

[ and he's nearer your age so perhaps this is like a friends-your-own-age matchmaking session. ]

Ah... no, I don't believe I have met him, though I can't say I'd be opposed to having more intelligent discussion about this place.

[...he really can't object to that at all, tbh]

Well, do keep an eye out!! I told him about you, too. And I can text you his gear number as well - but I really do think you two would get on!

[ she may sound a bit excited about this ]

Please do-that would probably make things easier. I'd rather not accidentally pass him up, after all.

Doing so right now!

[ She is, of course, talking about

captainash, and that's whose gear number she sends his way. ]

I thank you for it, then. I'll be sure to keep an eye out.
