The phones were working. That warranted a trip out into the woods, under the pretense of going out for a ride with the Lady Morgana, to see how well their connection held up in Camelot. Contact some friends ( Read more... )

The fifty-eighth time she'd tried calling since he left the text-messages? Fifty-ninth? Whatever. She stopped leaving voicemails after the first one, but like that was going to stop Francine from ringing.

"You better be there or we're coming after you guys somehow even if I have to offer to pole-dance for the Portalocity tickets guy."

Well, of course he was there. Now. "Francine?"

"MERLIN!" Oh, his poor, poor ears. "You're there! And we're here! EEEEE!" Poor, poor, overly-talented ears.

She was just lucky that he yanked the phone away from his ear in time. "I am and you are!"

"Did you fix the phones with magic? What happened? Are you guys okay? You just disappeared!"

Pfft, one question at a time. PFFT, says Francine.

"I think I did, we got home and we're fine." A beat. "For now."

Oh, don't think for a second that she didn't catch that. "Whaddya mean for now?"

"Things happen here about as often as Fandom." With more killy, mind.

Francine sighed, because it wasn't like she didn't remember that. Including the killy part. Heck, it had been top of the list of Things To Worry About Besides Not Hearing From Them for the last three weeks.

She'd just kind of shoved that under a pillow while she was busy being overjoyed. "But not raining marshmallows things."

Merlin cursed, sighing into the phone. "I knew I forgot to pick up something."

"Pick up something? Where? I thought you didn't have marshmallows in your time." It was hard to avoid picturing him popping down to the Camelot Quik-Stop for them, despite having a fairly good idea what a market might really look like there, from Kaeleer.

"I was in Fandom to get the phones and... I forgot to get marshmallows."

"........" Francine felt the need to pause for breath before continuing her pause. "....You were in Fandom? And we missed you?"

That'd be the sound of a forehead thunking against a tube-bed several times.

"Like you haven't seen all my porn?" Oh wait, he hadn't. There were three more volumes of Taste of the Apple now. ...She was talking about porn on the phone in the lounge of a tube hotel. Oh God.

"Oh wait, your saddlebags!"

"...what about them?" He hadn't looked in those.
