[After a substantial amount of panic, shouting and demanding to know where his friends are, Kurogane has finally given up on finding them in the palace and turned to this strange bracelet. He manages to get the audio feature working, vaguely remembering how telephones and stuff like that worked in Hanshin and Piffle.]

Oi. [His tone is tense and he obviously has to force himself to keep calm. This is not a happy man.] I need someone to tell me how the hell I get back to where I was and who's responsible for this shit. [Another interference from that guy? It doesn't look like it but who the hell else...] I don't have time for this crap.

Kid, manjuu... Mage... If you guys are here, let me know now. [He sounds more and more stressed as he goes on.] If anyone's seen a kid with brown hair carrying a girl or a guy with blond hair and an eyepatch, say so. [Pauses for a moment, tense.] If this thing even fucking works! [Kurogane growls and tries to turn the communicator off, quickly getting frustrated and just slamming his fist against the wall, with an audible crash.]

I only let go for one fucking second, damnit...

It's not about being stubborn, I have to- Tch! [This girl obviously can't help him.]

[occulthymns]

You have to what? [She's folding her arms and peering at her bracelet's holographic screen.] What were you doing that was so important?

[Audio]

[fatherdear]

... None of your business.

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Ugh, then you should bitch to the gods if you're that angry about it...!

[Audio]

[fatherdear]

... Yeah.

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Just watch what you say around them. They're finicky.

[Audio]

[fatherdear]

I can handle it.

[occulthymns]

[She can't help being a little skeptical, and she snorts.]

Yeah, sure.

[Well, from the sound of things, he doesn't have a choice. And no, sitting around and waiting isn't an option, not for Kurogane.]

Where can I find them?

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

I'm not sure, honestly.... They talk to people using these bracelets sometime though, so you should start there.

[fatherdear]

[He doesn't have time for this, he doesn't have time for this, just once can't the universe give him a problem he can just stab his way out of? Just once?]

Fine.

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

[This'll be interesting to see, if any of it ends up being public.]

You're welcome.

[Audio]

[fatherdear]

Hn. [Not really the type to say thanks, sorry. Back to trying to find that way out...]

[occulthymns]

[That's cool she's going to stalk his progress B) GOOD LUCK KURO-CHAN.]
