Hi, what can I help you with?

audio ↪ un: うちは (for degar)

[blackfire]

（ buddy, don't you think for a minute he didn't notice the absence of your usual upbeat demeanor and the obvious signs of exhaustion etched into your face. this message follows not long after, and it's about as predictably terse as itachi always is. ）

Commander. （ that's practically a 'hello'. ） Something has been taxing you. What is it?

（ he doesn't know if the man will answer him or not, but how he chooses to respond (or if he refuses) will be an answer of its own. ）

[stationmaster]

[ if only he could wear glamours, he'd always be in tip-top shape.

as it is, there's a tired huff of laughter that comes through the comms device. he's doing his best. ]

Really got a way with words, don't'cha, buddy?

[blackfire]

I doubt you recruited me for my skills in diplomacy.

（ it's said so dryly it's almost not a joke. but it is. shh. ）

Regardless, that is not an answer, it is an evasion.

[stationmaster]

[ hilarious really. so much so that degar does huff a quiet breath of a laugh. ]

Yeah. Look, don't worry about me, okay? I'm tougher than I look. [ there's a pause that sounds suspiciously like someone trying to stifle a yawn. ] Just had a few sleepless nights beefing up the North Wing security, that's all. There will be no guided tours for the next little while I'm afraid.

[blackfire]

（ his mouth twitches downward at one corner. he still doesn't like degar all that much — although more now than when they first met nearly a year prior. however, it should be stated that the amount he actually likes degar at all is only because he knows viveca would not hold a useless man in such high regard, so you may in fact thank her for any and all feelings that steal into 'warmer than polite neutrality' territory. ）

Is there any assistance I am able to provide? Presumably, the orbs are becoming restless.

apologies for the delay!

[stationmaster]

You could say that. But then they're entities of boundless energy, so that's to be expected.

[ and now that yawn comes out. ]

But the second I need a hand, you'll be among the first to know.

[blackfire]

（ and then he betrays him anyway and goes to help viv anYWAY. ）

Mm. Until then.

（ and off he goes.

degar is probably used to this by now... ）
