Voice Message - Friday 9:36 AM

[prideofcamelot]

(Not realizing that the message means that he doesn't actually have Merlin on the phone, Arthur started responding right after 'It's Merlin!'.

...Which means that the extent of his recorded reply ends up being:)

-shortly, with everyone in tow. (Click.)

[Video Message] - Friday 9:50 AM

[tiercelet]

...you realise I didn't hear most of what you said? You're supposed to wait until my message finishes playing before you talk.

Call - 9:52 AM

[prideofcamelot]

(He'll do that now, then. Aaaaand...Ring ring, Merlin!)

[Video]

[tiercelet]

[He was totally expecting this call. Therefore, he answers with: ]

...yes, sire?

[prideofcamelot]

Merlin. Thane's face is looking like he ate weeks-old haddoc. (The few muffled banging sounds in the background aren't enough to conceal the faint worry in his tone.)

What do I do?

[Video Message] - Monday 4:32 PM

[tiercelet]

That's odd...he was fine this morning. D'you know if he ate anything other than the food I left with you?

Voice Message - Monday 4:35 PM

[prideofcamelot]

He got into your bag and ate a piece of paper, if that's what you mean.

[Video Message] - Monday 4:37 PM

[tiercelet]

Piece of paper? [There's confusion on his face--then he blanches] Arthur, what was on that paper?

VOICE MAIL

[restardom]

[ oh hello there, Merlin. It's at some inane hour of the morning, greeting the eventual dawn of the 15th of February. And who is leaving this message? You might not be able to tell. Why? ]

I-- I-- I--!! I'm-- such a-- s-stupid-- [ Rise probably isn't sounding very coherent or calm at the moment, and talking while you are making choked sobbing noises is next to impossible. Talking while you are making choked sobbing noises while your teeth are chattering because you're an idiot who happens to making this call OUTSIDE?

Priceless. COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE. So, Merlin, enjoy however long it takes for the message system to shut her off, because Rise isn't managing any more than that. ]

Voice Message - Tuesday 6:47 AM

[tiercelet]

Rise?! [Sounding both panicky and concerned after listening to her voicemail] What's wrong?

Voice Message - Tuesday 6:50 AM

[restardom]

[ a tiny hiccup-- she's... at least managed to stop sobbing like a banshee. ]

I-I'm an idiot...

Voice Message - Tuesday 6:57 AM

[tiercelet]

You're not an idiot. Why would you even think that?

Call - Monday 11:41 AM

[restardom]

[ like you would get away with just sending her a package. ]

[Video]

[tiercelet]

Rise! Everything all right?

[Video]

[restardom]

Everything's fine! I just wanted to thank you for--

[ and there's the Ponyta dropping her head over Rise's shoulder. ]

... this!

[Video]

[tiercelet]

You got the package, then? It probably isn't what you're used to back in your world, but you seemed to like my Rapidash--[He cuts himself off ruefully] Anyhow, happy White Day! What are you going to name her?

Video Call - Tuesday 4:02 PM

[prideofcamelot]

(My ring is a royal one)

[Video]

[tiercelet]

[Snuffling sounds, Arthur. And a Riolu staring into your soul right at you. Seems Merlin-Trainer's pokemon has been playing with his Gear again]

(video forevar)

[prideofcamelot]

(Arthur stares at the curious pokemon, not all that surprised to see that he's apparently dug his way into more of Merlin's things)

Hello, Ambrosius. Get Merlin, will you?

(...He isn't sure how well this will work)

[tiercelet]

[Cius appears to think this over. Then, he's off, the image shaking badly until the pokemon slows moments later. The image steadies enough to show Merlin, dozing in one of the Pokemon Centre's couches.

Still carrying the recording Gear, Cius pads over to his Trainer and none-too-gently jumps onto his lap. The Gear catches Merlin's startled squeak before it goes clattering to the floor]
