[the screen flickers for a moment before it's held back by a cloaked figure. the identity cannot be determined due to the hood, but there's one thing that could be deciphered: the person was covered in blood.

after a few more seconds, a rather cheerful voice is heard, the hood pulled down to reveal Ace's smiling face]

There we are! I was afraid the Dreamberry had been broken. I tried contacting people for the past week but I couldn't get anything. I guess I had ventured too far out, haha. [it's more of a miracle he managed to find his way back within reception distance]

Julius! Do you know how to properly grill shark meat? [he now holds up the dismembered head of one of the sand sharks by his free hand. the rest of its slashed up corpse could be found behind him, as well as a tent and fire place nearby. it's now apparent that Ace has been and still is out somewhere in the desert] I tried roasting it over a fire last night, but it was still rather tough. Maybe it needed more salt...

[smilesmile] Though if anyone else wants some, there's plenty! I should be bringing it back soon. [read: in a few days if he's lucky.]

[... This is what you've been doing while he was stuck in the warehouse? Seriously? :|]

[yes? :D]

... I suppose I should be glad that you're still alive.

[amused] Why? Were you actually worried, Julius?

[B|]

No. It just would've been a nuisance if you'd gotten yourself killed.

Always so harsh. [laughing]

So how are things back there?

... You're lucky you were out in the desert this past week.

[blinks]

Lucky? What do you mean?

We were all stuck inside a building infested with rats. It wasn't exactly the most pleasant place to be in.

Stuck in a building infested with rats? How did that happen?

I don't know. We just woke up there.

Is that so? Hmm... [how peculiar] And you said it was everyone?

As far as I know.

Well if you're alive, then I can only assume everyone else is fine. [was that a slight dig at Julius' incapacity to fight? ....maybe.]

But I wonder how everyone wound up in a warehouse...was it somewhere in Somarium? You could have tried to contact me for help you know. [even if he. was. unable to contact anyone from out in the desert lol.]

[Not everyone can be psycho killers like you, Ace. :|]

The Dreamberries weren't working.

[sure they can :D]

Oh they weren't? And here I thought it had just been me.

It could've been you as well.

Perhaps. Maybe I should try journeying farther out and try contacting again!

... That's not necessary.

But wouldn't it be good to know for any others who might try to come out here?

I don't really care.

[small sigh] So heartless.

Well I've been gone long enough, anyway. I'm running low on supplies. I should be back by tomorrow, though. [which is more like three days]

[And believe me, Julius knows.]

All right.

Anything I should pick up for you?

I'm fine.
