voidtreckernet | Morning: Day 19 - Audio: Luggage Car

[ To say that Evie Grimhilde sounded annoyed was the biggest understatement one can make, and she looks about as mad as she sounds, not to mention she feels as though she looks a mess, so this is audio from the vicinity of the luggage car. ]

Miss Custer, if the conductor or whoever is going to make it a habit of putting people in suitcases without warning, you are going to have to find a new place to smoke. It smells like goblin refuse in here, and I’m sure my clothes have picked up the scent. Or just stop smoking all together, vices be damned.

[ ...she’s probably Big Mad if she’s swearing. ]

Harry, mo chridhe. [ She knows several languages so it shouldn’t be too shocking that she knows how to say ‘my heart’ in Scottish Gaelic. And she’s very aware of what she called him and what it implies, but that’s who he is. She knows just how he will have reacted to her disappearance, so reassuring him that it wasn’t her intention and that he was still very important to her and someone she chose gladly was the best idea. And her tone has changed. It’s softer, a fair hint of upset in it, along with sounding apologetic. ]

Where are you? I’m so sorry. We were supposed to meet, and then the conductor called me but then I woke up in a stupid suitcase. I really was looking forward to spending time with you, but...

[ Whatever she goes to say, she’s stopped. And her tone just sounds confused and alarmed. ]

How did I even get in there?

[ A soft inhale and an exhale from Evie and she’s muttering about smelling terrible. Thanks, Miss Custer. She hates it. ]

I’m going to shower and then I’m coming to find you, Harry. How does that sound?

[ With that, she turns off the device and leaves the carriage car, the frown on her face a mix of confusion and anger. It’ll change when she runs into people she knows but for now, she looks pissed. ]

[Now here's a voice he hasn't heard from in awhile.]

Welcome back Evie. Is everything alright?

[Other than the obvious.]

I’m sure they will be. For now, I’m annoyed at a few things.

[ But she’s had a shower by now, and has seen to it that Harry understood her vanishing was not her decision. ]

But I’ll be fine.

[Annoyed, he'd be more than a little annoyed if he disappeared so he can understand.]

Understandable. If you'd like, we can discuss it over dinner and some sewing? I've found a coat that needs some mending, but I would appreciate a little more input on it.

[He really hopes she'll be ok and he trusts her opinion.]

A sewing project? Ignis, you have my full attention.

[ Thats one way to cheer her up. ] Was it worn during the last mission? Is that why it needs mending?

[She can't see it, but he's smiling.]

No, I rather found it before the mission and I could use some help with it. It's a long black coat and I'm going to alter it a bit to put some buttons on there.

[ Good. She likes seeing her friends happy. She thrives on it. ]

Do we have buttons to put on it? Because there are a few costs in the dressing room that could easily be relieved of buttons.

[ Plans rp dismantle clothes may already be in motion by Evie. ]

And there’s no sewing machine on board that I’ve ever seen, so there will be a lot of this done by hand.

[ She is completely unphased by this. She’s done it before. ]

If there are silver ones, those would work best. If not, then if we can find white.

[He was trying to stay away from gold, because that was the king's colour.]

I've mostly sewn by hand, so not having a machine on board will be just fine.

I learned how to hand sew first. For something detailed, I don’t mind taking the time.

Okay. White buttons. Or silver. There are...three coats in there that have those. It’s just a matter of making sure we find the right ones, and that there are enough of them.

Then it sounds like we should make good progress with this project.

[Especially if the two of them get working on this. And Ignis is pleased that Evie is getting right on this. The sooner the better with this particular project.]

That will work. When did you have time to meet up?

[If she had plans, he was definitely going to make sure he could work around them.]

Edited 2019-10-07 23:29 (UTC)

I might need a couple days to settle back in.

[ And this means time with Harry. Loads of it. People aren't allowed to be surprised that she won't be showing up for chores for her first couple days back. ]

But then we'll definitely work on your sewing project. I'm looking forward to it.

Alright, let me know whenever you're ready.

[He paused.]

If there's anything I can do to help, let me know.
