015 ⚜ Video ⚜ The Return

It appears, mes chéris, the Port has decided not to let me go, after all.

[For those who knew him, Francis Bonnefoy is on the NV network again inside the baseball diamond, looking a lot more relaxed and happy than his last appearance almost a year ago. For those who don't, they'll find an immaculately dressed, blue-eyed blond man with a charming smile and a bit of a beard on his chin. His voice is also heavily accented with French.]

It says today is the 6th of February, 2013. This means I have been gone, mm, about a year, non? Alors, for me at home, it has been two since I last saw the Port. Nothing much seems to have changed, since then. I suppose this means I have lived a year twice over. Not that it was a great year, mais, it might have been worse. At least it was not the dark ages.

... ah la la, where are my manners? I am sure there are some of you listening to this, wondering who in god's name I am. [The charming smile comes up again.] Allo, tout le monde. I am François Bonnefoy. I tell everyone to call me Francis, for simplicity. I come from France, naturellement - Paris, to be precise. It is a pleasure to meet you all. I hope during my second stay things will go much smoother.

At any rate... it is almost refreshing to be back. I believe I was due for another vacation, anyway. Now! I expect all of you who know me well to let me celebrate my return with you! A party, perhaps? Or simpler little things if you do not like large groups. Mais, I will not take no for an answer~ I have a lot of catching up to do, I think.

[And with that, he starts to send out a few private messages.]


Private to Magneto - moderate hack

Bonjour, Michel. [Forgive the old man, he's tired of pronouncing it the silly German way. :P You'll have to stick with the French for now.] I must say, it is a relief to know you are still around. How is the house? Dare I ask how... how is Liliane? Do you have any news?

... ah, pardon, pardon, I am asking too many questions. May I... meet you somewhere, so that we can perhaps... catch up?

Private to Raul Creed - moderate hack

It has been a long time... non? [Gaaaah, what else do you say to your sexy ex-boss.] I take it Lion's Gate has not fallen into ruin without me?

Private to Franz d'Epinay - moderate hack

Franz... I am glad you are still here. [He gives a soft smile, one of vast affection.] How are you, cher, are you well...? You simply must tell me everything that has happened.

Private to Czeslaw Meyer - moderate hack

Benjamin? It is good to see you are still here, mon ami. [Francis is genuinely glad, but still somewhat hesitant.] May I be permitted to see you, to, perhaps... catch up?

Private to Amy Sorel - moderate hack

Chérie! ["Papa" Francis is beaming, just as hopelessly as if he'd never left.] Bonjour! Ah, it is so good to hear your cute little voice again~! Please tell me you have some time to let me see you - ah, I will be heartbroken if you do not!
