[The figure on the video is pale, washed out, obviously somewhat sickly and his hair is giving actual haystacks competition for unruliness. He does seem to have found a t-shirt and a pair of jeans, though, so the blond giant no longer looks like he's an escapee from a renfaire. He does, however, look ill. Much like his mun.]Suffice to say, I've

That would depend on what you consider important, I think.

That speaks to something I probably want to know. Or you're teasing.

[He peers at the camera, giving a somewhat tired but still playful, smile.]

Garion, incidentally. And you would be?

Or it could be both.

( oh, donna likes smiles. her own widens. )

Donna. Nice to meet you.

It very well could be. And a pleasure to meet you, Donna. Here to take pity on me, or just tease me into hiding again?

[This place is making him more and more glad that his time at court had taught him how to small talk properly. Well, as properly as he ever would.]

I'd very much prefer it if you didn't hide, I think.

[point_and_game]

Fair enough. Then what can I do for you, Donna?

[It sounds as if this is a common enough question for him to ask; he's a man used to taking care of things though right now, after several days out of commission, he's just happy to hear another human being. He hasn't quite been sulking, mostly because he hasn't been conscious long enough to work up to a good one, but he's never been the solitary sort.]

( she laughs. ) Usually I'm the one asking that question. I could give you a run-down of the past few days, if you'd like.

[He hunkers down, putting his elbows on his knees and focusing his attention firmly on her. If there's one thing he can do, it's pay attention.]

I would be much obliged if you did. Old habits die hard; I hate to be out of the loop.

Certainly. I suppose the most talk-about part would be the rioting happening here and in Boston for the past few days; there was some violence and property damage, but mostly I think it was managed as best as it could have been.

[There's a scrunch of his nose, distaste, but not nearly as much shock as there could have been. He is wondering how the Mayor he met is doing, but has a feeling that the man was slick enough to be just fine. Sadness follows it, the emotion possible now that he's done a bit of considering about the logistical changes. Eventually, he nods.]

Any idea on the cause of it?

A combination of things; these things always are. But mostly? I think the news about that organization creating powers was the root of it. ( and attached now are some news broadcasts with details. )

[point_and_game]

[He spends a few minutes watching through the broadcasts and checking the details, taking it all in like a business man reading his accounts. When he's done, there is a long, heavy sigh.]

I see. Have there been any targeted attacks?

video;

[kathreptis]

That's a more complicated questions. But by the rioters themselves? I suppose not.

[He waves it off.]

Sorry. I shouldn't be drilling you for information like an advisor. I've been rude. Is there anything I can do to make it up to you, or at least to thank you for filling me in?

[kathreptis]

Oh, think nothing of it. There's just a lot going on, and it's natural to be curious. You don't have to make anything up to me, really.

[A quick grin.]

You're very gracious. I'm glad that the rioting doesn't seem to have given you too much trouble.
