I am familiar with Crowe-kun, but I'm afraid I can't provide his current location... when I think about it, I should have checked where he lives.

[repeatsalvation]

I see.

Even telling me he is still here is helpful.

[politerudeness]

With the unpredictable manner in which people come and go, I suppose it would be unsurprising if he were not...

[repeatsalvation]

Especially after I have been gone so long.

It would seem I've arrived while the town has been causing trouble.

[Hey, new not!dad, hope you like seeing your new not!son not helping out in any way as he passes through the kitchen, his nose in a comic book.]

action

[repeatsalvation]

[Well hello there not!son, your not!dad appears fairly apathetic at the moment as well, at least at first. He'll wait a bit before even saying anything as you pass by.]

You wouldn't happen to know where the coffee is kept in here, would you?

action

[demonoaths]

Don't know, don't care.

[That's his automatic response before he stops in place, backtracks a little and realizes that no, this guy isn't a drone.

On one hand, he's not pleased. How is he supposed to continue his experiments on drones if there aren't any more in the house?! On the other hand, not a drone, so he's okay with it. So long as there's something interesting about him...]

Who are you?

action

[repeatsalvation]

[Still continuing to look through the drawers. He doesn't look back, but he smiles a bit.]

I am me. You may call me Wilhelm.

[And he knows parts and basics of who you are, Mao, but he's found it to be rude to show that immediately to other people. At least in most cases.]

I'll assume you're the boy intended to be my son here, correct?

Phone

[expiatrice]

Yeshua has been droned for some time now. It's possibly, if not likely, permanent.

Phone

[repeatsalvation]

[A pause. A long one.]

I see.

Thank you for informing me.

[expiatrice]

You're welcome.

[...

She debates "I'm sorry", but ultimately decides against it.]

Crowe is doing okay, as well as he possibly can in this town.

[repeatsalvation]

Which I will assume is still not well.

I'm glad to know so many people have decided to keep an eye on him.

action

[withwinter]

[ Sure, Letty's been noticing. Actually, she's watching him, arms folded and her back resting against a table. She had been making it a habit to sleep in the cold of the basement, though the move of the not!son's laboratory there too was, well... ]

Making sure nothing has gone missing?

action

[repeatsalvation]

[Wilhelm simply turns his head to the voice. If he's surprised, he isn't showing it.]

More becoming accustomed to being in a new house. I knew where I kept things in the old one. I suppose having it changed here is a bit of a conundrum.

action

[withwinter]

I didn't know we were going to have someone new in this house. [ From his words, she wonders if one of the other two invited him to stay. But for a long time? ]

As long as you don't change them around here to make it easier for yourself. It's hard for some of us to become accustomed to as it is.

Sorry this is so late I've been on hiatus

[repeatsalvation]

One tends to find they'll never know when a new housemate will be introduced, the longer you stay here.

[He nods, shortly and politely.]

I understand. I assure you everything will remain in its proper place, miss.
