This is Jaune. Leave me a message.

[castrationfist]

[... She was calling to apologize, but there's one thing that has to be addressed first.]

... "Smiley face"?

voice

[aurabble]

[He has to do a double-take because he didn't expect anyone to message him, in particularly Caster.]

Yeah, smiley face. Like the emoji?

[castrationfist]

That... Is for text, isn't it? Not as your answering machine...

[aurabble]

Well, it didn't have the same impact with text.

But I'm glad you know what text is.

[castrationfist]

Why would I not know what text is?!

[aurabble]

You're from another time.

You're old.

[castrationfist]

Mi- Mikoooon! You just said something unbelievably rude just now, you know! Tamamo is a beautiful young pure-hearted maiden!

[aurabble]

No. You're not.

Okay you're beautiful but you're not pure-hearted. And why are you referring to yourself in third person?

[castrationfist]

Exactly what part of me isn't pure? I'm a simple pure girl seeking love, that's all! And it's cute!

[aurabble]

Please, if you're that pure and simple, I'm smart.

And it's...it kind of scares me. But I hope you didn't just message me to insult my amazing and personable voicemail.

[castrationfist]

... Scares you? Why, exactly?

I actually called to apologize, but then you called me old, so never mind!

[aurabble]

I don't know. I just get this feeling that you're going to refer to yourself in third person and torture me.

Apologize for what? You can't blame me. I'm probably really young to you.

[castrationfist]

I'm not going to change my speech patterns just for you, you know!

Not really. I was only twenty when I was executed, you know.

[aurabble]

It's okay, Jaune understands. See? It's weird, isn't it?

...Oh. But you said you were a courtesan.

[castrationfist]

That's because you're not a cute girl.

I was.

[aurabble]

True, but I've been told I look great in a dress.

Before? I-- Do you want to talk about it?

[castrationfist]

That does not count, and I am going to delete the memory that you said that from my head now.

... I called to apologize for making you run off. If that story is what you wish for as my apology, I will oblige you, but it will probably end the same way for you as my other stories.

[aurabble]

It was white.

There's nothing to apologize for. [His voice has gone a little colder, not quite curt, but rushed and guarded. But for once, he didn't run off because of Caster, but because of what Weiss said. The last thing he wants to do right now is think about it.] What's that supposed to mean?

[castrationfist]

[She ignores that first part. Ignores it so hard.]

It means my story did not end well, and you seem to have a great distaste for that kind of story.

[aurabble]

I'm sorry. But I can handle it, my story, our stories are just beginning here. Why would I have any distaste?

[Nothing bad ever happened ok Caster no one died.]

[castrationfist]

[I HATE TO TELL YOU, BUT]

... Fine. If you wish to hear, then why don't we meet somewhere? And bring wine.

[aurabble]

[EVER.]

I'll let you choose the place. Where am I supposed to get wine?

[castrationfist]

The store is generally a good place to start.

... The park again. I don't think we'll be overheard, since I can't put up a Bounded Field in this state.

[aurabble]

Ah-- Will they let me?

What state is that?

[castrationfist]

If they try to stop you, just say you're of age.

My weakened state. I'm almost out of mana, unfortunately, without a contract with a Master to provide more.
