hadriel | misfired audio;

( you would think, with all of the glitching happening across the network, he would have the sense to not try in the first place. but as far as he's seen, all of those glitches have been confined to text posts, and with all of the intermittent voice chats he's been having with kate –

he should be safe. right?

( sure, we'll go with that, sammy. )

they never do video – whether due to no real reason, or the fact that most of their conversations take place in the small hours of the morning is anyone's guess – so it's only audio, though there is the sound of a smile in his voice like there always is. )

So, you're missing a notebook, right? You left it on the kitchen counter. ( a beat. ) It's got something added to it, but you're gonna have to come get it to find out what it is.

( this – sadly – is how this idiot flirts. or thinks he's flirting. s i g h. )

Oh, and how do you feel about another movie night? If I promise not to burn the popcorn this time.

( that promise will probably be broken. s i g h.

and kate is probably going to flip her shit when she sees this. )

[Unfortunately mercy killings aren't his specialty.]

Heh, figured that out after the first sentence. Just couldn't help myself. [He is a trickster, but not a mean one thankfully.]

So did your intended target see this at least?

( he'll just have to find someone else that will take pity on him, then.

his life. )

Yeah, she did. ( and she's so dense that, aside from tsuning at him for calling her cute, that particular conversation is carrying on as normally as it would otherwise. )

She's probably got it in for me the next time I see her face-to-face, though.

[You have all of his condolences, man. He just makes it a habit to only kill akuma (demons), and Noah when he has to.]

That's good at least? [And then he frown a bit.]

Like a good 'have it in for you' or a 'she's gonna kick your ass'?

( killing demons is an admirable thing. they should talk about that sometime.

but a single person? that's a little odd. must have a good reason for it, though.

a sheepish sort of tone seeps into the sound of his voice with his next response. )

She's definitely going to kick my ass. ( but at least he laughs. )

I called her cute. She doesn't really respond well to stuff like that.

[They totally should and then be completely confused by how they both go about their respective demon-killing techniques.

Well the 'Noah' are a family of sorts who are the reason for the demons. He comes from an odd place in general, sorry in advance Sam.]

From the women I know, I don't think any of them do. [Lavi laughs too.] I've been kicked and hit with a clip board more than once. But if she smiles when she does it, it's probably a good sign?

( at least, with as long as he's been here, the methods other people use aren't as much of a surprise to him anymore. everyone does things in their own way, and not everyone can be expected to do them like he and his brother do.

to each their own, as the saying goes. )

I think we happen to know the same type, then. ( sorry for you guys ... )

We'll see. Maybe I won't come out of it too messed up. ( kate might be small ... but she is definitely a force to be reckoned with. :| )
