[hello, Port. on screen is a man who could pass for eighteen, but has that 'look' of someone far older. he could probably also give a few models envy in terms of his 'look', period.

he also seems mildly annoyed.]

While being told that there are monsters that roam in the dark is alarming, being told that it is 2012 is even more so.

I would like a better explanation than the one I was given.

Re-l Mayer. I'll see if I can find her.

Thank you, miss...?

[athermercy]

Belloc. But call me Elaine.

video;

[cursedblood]

Genya Arikado. Thank you for your assistance, Elaine.

video;

[athermercy]

Likewise, Genya? That sounds familiar. You are Soma's friend, aren't you?

video;

[cursedblood]

I'm an acquaintance of the boy. You know him?

video;

[athermercy]

I do. He stayed with me in the Lux after he was evicted from his flat.

video;

[cursedblood]

He was evicted?

video;

[athermercy]

Honestly his landlord was too harsh. Why don't you ask him?

video;

[cursedblood]

I'll be sure to.

[beat]

Thank you for keeping an eye on him.

video;

[athermercy]

No problem. He's a friend, so I'm concerned about him.

[She smiles because it's funny he has his personal babysitter in the Port.]

[cursedblood]

[AS YOU SHOULD BE CONCERNED he simply nods]

Has he been staying out of trouble?

video;

[athermercy]

As much as he could in this place.

video;

[cursedblood]

[AND HE CRACKS A SMILE]

That's a start.

video;

[athermercy]

[Hey he can smile]

I think he was missing a friend like you here.

video;

[cursedblood]

More likely he's missing the sort like his peers. Our paths didn't cross very often.

video;

[athermercy]

Don't worry -- You'll have plenty of quality time together here.

video;

[cursedblood]

Wonderful.

[so. flat.]

video;

[athermercy]

What? I thought you liked him.

video;

[cursedblood]

I respect him. But I am not his peer. We live in...different worlds.

video;

[athermercy]

Good thing that you share a world now.

video;

[cursedblood]

[way to ruin the metaphor]

So it seems.

video;

[athermercy]

[way to be melodramatic]

Look. At least try to appear a little happier about that.

video;

[cursedblood]

[he's been like this for 600 years he's not going to change now]

While I am happy that I can keep an eye on Soma from here, I doubt he'd appreciate having me hover over him.

video;

[athermercy]

Have you asked his opinion? He needs a friend like you right now. Just try to be more approachable.

video;

[cursedblood]

As opposed to other times?

[there's a vague hint of suspicion and something else with him now. who done messed with Soma.]
