[ After a week in the outlands, he has made it back home and has had a bath and some sweets and a change of clothes, it's heaven.
Or rather, purgatory. A step up from hell, but still unpleasant. It's not so much that he's bruised, bitten, and blistered; but he's had quite a bit of time in the last week to think.
And the fact that Collette didn't reply to his post, nor seems to be home, has raised an awful possibility in his mind, particularly given what just happened to Leo.
He considers leaving a text but that feels cowardly (and a bother!), so he simply leaves her a voicemail: ]
( Collette doesn't respond, even though she listens to the message. She's considering what to do at all when Oz interrupts her thoughts with suggestions of going home.
But she'd been replaying the message, and instead of just relaying, she'd managed to hit... respond.
[ This time Caesar isn't even going to knock on the other apartment's door, he's just going to outright check to see if it's unlocked. It's always been before and he's begun to sense this is the trend of things over here.
So it's only a door creaking open and him poking his head in to look around. At the very least, he won't wander in. He has to figure out who's here first.
If it's Gilbert, he's in for it! ]
Hello?
in which the boys debated where they'd sleep for hours
( Collette looks up from where she's tapping away on her tablet, looking toward her doorway. She waits a beat, wondering if anyone else is in at this exact instant. Nothing from Break... nothing from Gilbert.
This was an 80's film waiting to happen! )
Hello? Caesar?
( She sets her tablet in her lap, moving toward her door. She pops herself around backward so that she leans over the back of her manual chair when she looks out into the hall, toward the door. )
Hey! It is you! Come on in, I guess the guys are out for now.
Glub glub glub glub 38) If you're t)(ere you s)(ould let me know. I )(ave been )(oping to see you all week! But I guess it did not )(appen wit)( )(ow crazy everyfin is.
Hahaha, where else would I be? I'm here, on the moon! With the rest of us. What're you up to Feferi? Have you been settling in okay? Is it totally weird to be far away from water at all?
Heya, Collette! It's been a while, right? So I thought I'd give you a ring! How you been? It sounds like the Initiative finally got around to fixing up the werewolves, so maybe things are okay with that now. I gave everybody a warning, too.
[...]
Ah, right, right, there was something else, ahh, hmm. I might have played a little prank on a new guy, and he might come see you in a bit. He was kinda grumpy, so I figured I'd help him lighten up a bit. You don't mind, do you? I don't think he'll be too mad.
( Because she sets down her tablet and reaches for her stopwatch, around her neck like it comfortably can be. No time later there's a golden retriever racing down the halls to the clinic's set-up place for now. She trusts her nose and ears more than her eyes to bring her right to Lenalee and Caesar -- calling out with Thought Speak as she beelined for them. )
< What's happened? Caesar, what's going on with your eyes? They're not swimming or anything, are they? >
[Slightly backdated to earlier on the 26th.] If you're getting this, you wanted to know more about the clones. I'm going to tell the network what I know soon, but here's a copy of my notes.
Thank you Jaime! I was wondering though, with what the AI said, and how um. With how things change. With who disappears (like Peace, Stan's little girl), are they even still there?
So then! What have I missed? I do rather think the people being guarded over in the West Wing are a new addition. That's a touch kinkier than I might have expected of our lot. Oh, do tell me, is the coffee still tasteless?
Vanadi! Vanadi, you're back! Oh my gosh there's been all kinds of things, what's the last one you remember? Where are you? You've got to come over! You owe me another hug! Or like, five!
Hello, Collette. I apologize if this seems sudden since we have not spoken before, but. A little while ago Charlie Cutter suggested I speak to you about movies? And now that I have the time I thought I would ask you about them, and how to acquire one.
Text | totally fine, but no answer will exist until mid January
So I know you're not here, but Christmas is kind of a big deal around here it seems, so I wanted to make sure it got said on time and all. When you get back, I've got something for you.
[Whenever she gets back and has time, Lea will have a little gift bag for her with a fuzzy blue scarf inside. There's also a little box wrapped in turquoise paper. Inside the box is a little figure of an shark, carved in bone, and a note.
['found out on a mission recently that sharks are a symbol of strength. i dunno, it made me think of you. take care. -Lea']
wow what is this myserious package;
IT CONTAINS THIS
AND THERE'S A NOTE
IT SAYS: "For my favorite Collette."
WOW I WONDER WHO IT'S FROM]

But she'd been replaying the message, and instead of just relaying, she'd managed to hit... respond.
Thus when Break checks for a response, or notices his tablet beeping at him, or even hears a word out of it, he'll be treated to the audio file of something currently ongoing and slightly muffled.
