04 Network, Video;

[kallig]

[The video clicks on to a... Slightly older looking Altair, in clothes much finer than he wore before. He looks perhaps a bit more tired than ever, though not confused- so it's safe to assume he remembers his time on Agra 10.]

Back again, then. And... [He looks around, unfamiliar surroundings, but his memories are true- another trip off planet thanks to the Agrii then?] In the middle of some sort of event, it seems? A little hotter here than I would have preferred, but beggars can't be choosers.

[At least this time around, he'd been taken from a somewhat calmer situation. He'd been standing contemplating the Eternal Throne, and then he was here. He really can't complain. Given that he couldn't remember Agra 10 during his absence from it, he's sure the GEMINI Captains won't go rogue without him.] How long has it been since I was here?

It feels like forever, but...

[He's going to need to seek out some people regardless, he supposes.]

How are you supposed to reach for masterhood if you can't even get the low hanging fruit?

[Equally deadpan.]

[kallig]

I see you have no issues going for it, at least.

[Low hanging fruit. He's short. Ha ha, and all that.]

[doubled_speed]

[Dude, if Altair isn't going to make the joke, someone has to.]

Such is the path to mastery.

[kallig]

[He rolls his eyes, though it's more fond and amused than anything else.]

Glad I got to come back to you being in such high spirits.

[doubled_speed]

[High spirits? So totally not. He definitely can't do high spirits in a serious way. But he'll keep on going and lying about it.]

Dude, you missed the storm, didn't you?

[kallig]

I was there for most of it. This is entirely more peaceful, if a little hotter than I would have liked.

[Still, the way Tommy responded to that... Not high spirits at all then.]

I hope you intend to use our little "vacation" to rest, at least.

[doubled_speed]

Fuck, what even is rest? No, I'm looking to EAT.

[kallig]

I do believe that eating is a valid way for you to enjoy the vacation.

[Not how he'd spend his, but. For Tommy, it seems perfect.] I'd ask you to eat enough for the both of us, but I know you will.

[He's joking. Though he does wonder how things will go for him without Lana slamming meals down onto his desk and sitting there with him until he eats it.]

[doubled_speed]

I'm going to get to be full for the FIRST TIME since getting pulled along on this fucking mess.
