[ the feed clicks on and the first thing anyone paying attention might see is how goddamn pale this person’s skin is. there’s a quiet hum and only ten or so seconds later it’s revealed to be a redheaded woman, eyes currently hidden behind dark sunglasses. it’s probably hard to make out any other physical details besides what appears to be tattoos

[ oh.

she hadn't been thinking much about her lately. having her brought up after so long was heartbreaking still. ]

She's the new Question.

[ and then a pause, followed by her actually tearing her eyes off the communicator. ]

So I've heard. That was...kind of what I was angling for, but it's not like I could've just asked her to do it. It was something she had to choose on her own, and I couldn't let my feelings or expectations cloud that.

Sorry to hear, though. Figure some bridges you can't really cross twice. [wait is he talking about her and renee or himself and helena it's always hard to tell but it's not like she even knows about that anyway]

She's better. A lot better than before. [ but she's unable to shake how twisted and dark renee's obsession with the crime bible was. ]

I guess not.

[ disappointed? of course. she tried (or at least in kate's deluded mind she did) and yet it fell apart fast. ]

I've no doubt she is. She'll be better than I ever was, you know.

You really helped her back then. [ pause. ] If she could have, she would have told you thank you.

I don't think that was ever in the cards, really. But we had a good run together.

Given the circumstances, figure that's unavoidable.

You know what you need to for settling in?
