[voice/video]

[At first there is only audio. Those familiar with Lady Maccon's sharp tone will recognize her voice.]

As I said before, Prudence had gotten hold of the device and was pressing keys at random. I thought it would do little harm as we have been disconnected for some time. But when I looked I most certainly saw the community in the panel there.

[There's the clicking sound of someone typing when suddenly the video clicks on! Alexia, Professor Lyall, and Lord Akeldama are all curiously huddled in front of the screen. Prudence meanwhile, is firmly placed in Alexia's lap, though she is trying desperately to play with the sleeve of Lord Akeldama's coat. Oddly enough, while little has changed in the three adults, Prudence looks noticeably older. Somewhere around two years old.]

Ah! See! [Alexia looks triumphant.]

[Professor Lyall anxiously polishes his glassicals, which he was using to examine the device just a moment ago.]

Yes, it does seem to be entirely functional again, after all this time- but why now? We all gave up hope quite some time ago.

[Alexia, meanwhile, smiles softly at her daughter.] You are just a clever girl, aren't you Prudence?

No. [Prudence giggles before turning her attention back to Lord Akeldama's sleeve.]

Why Puggle, do be careful That is crushed silk!

[But he reaches for the child, ruffling her hair affectionately.]

Halloo, ducks! Fancy seeing you again!

[ooc: regular text is alexia, italics is Prudence, green is Professor Lyall, and blue is Lord Akeldama.]

[Lyall really has no idea what to say.

But he's going to say it after he's retreated to his study and dug up his own device, which (wonder of wonders) has connected as well.]


James...

Randolph...?

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry for leaving for so long.
chapter_behind: (this is my pained face)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
It certainly wasn't your fault.
cravats: (curiouser and curiouser)

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
No, I suppose not. I tried everything to connect again, but- it's only been a week for you?
chapter_behind: (This is my hesitant face)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. For most of the community...
cravats: (tired...)

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
I see.

[He takes a sip of tea, his eyes troubled.]

I am very pleased to see you again.
chapter_behind: (This is my hesitant face)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Are you?

[James isn't a fool.]

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't expect that I ever would.
chapter_behind: (This is my confused face)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
I missed you very much.
cravats: (lifeblood of the nation)

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
I missed you too. More than I can say.
chapter_behind: (This face ain't listening)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry.
cravats: (dealing with lady maccon)

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
It isn't your fault either.
chapter_behind: (Default)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Still. I... regret that you were put into that position.
cravats: (very composed)

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
There is nothing to blame but the community.
chapter_behind: (Default)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
In that case, I am sorry you returned. I know your feelings for this place.
cravats: (:|est)

[personal profile] cravats 2012-08-07 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
[He presses his lips together firmly and then sighs.]

Well, perhaps there will be a month or two that can pass without one of us being ripped away by some unpleasant means or another.
chapter_behind: (This is my hesitant face)

[personal profile] chapter_behind 2012-08-07 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
That would be wonderful.
