[thoughtfully]

Well, I wouldn't call myself an expert on mystery-solving, so granted, it might not mean much from me...

[evocationary]

[she snorts.]

I wouldn't call myself one either. [pbhbhhtlttlttt.] Kinda cool to see you guys in person, at least. I was wondering if you'd come when I called.

[guestservices]

[there's something amused in their tone.]

Yes, so try not to bongo on the bells now, in a manner of speaking, or you'll end up confusing all of us.

[evocationary]

[she - giggles? it's startled out of her.]

Oopsies. It was kind of funny though, don't lie.

[guestservices]

[dryly]

I claim nothing.

[evocationary]

[teehee.]

Are you all going to be available like this from now on?

[guestservices]

Some of us may be harder to reach via in-person communication, but generally speaking, yes.

[evocationary]

You can say Lepus.

[guestservices]

[they lift a hand to their veil, as though thinking.]

Lepus can be surprisingly diligent. I don't know if they would actually ignore a summons... although that doesn't guarantee they'd stick around for long, either.

But no, I was thinking of Aquarius. They can be a bit moody, and therefore less willing to deal with people in person.

[evocationary]

Huh, really? That is... so not the sense I got from them when we talked before. [taps chin.] Any suggestions on handling them?

[guestservices]

[they pause.]

Vulpecula would probably be able to give you a better idea—the two are always at each other's throats, but perhaps that's a sign of friendship?

I suppose it's just worth keeping in mind that Lepus actively tries to get on people's nerves, to whatever end. That's the impression I have, at least.

[evocationary]

I know how that one goes. [a little grin.]

And yeah. I guessed. It's funny to me when people try to do that on purpose, so they're going to have a time!

[guestservices]

Should I be preemptively worried for Lepus now?

[evocationary]

Probably. I'm going to pull their pigtails until they love me.

[guestservices]

I wonder which between you two I should wish good luck.

[evocationary]

Probably them. I've been known to be a menace.

And what about you? What's the best way to get along with you?

[guestservices]

Me? I'd like to think I'm fairly unobtrusive, to be honest...

[evocationary]

You are. It's endearing.

[guestservices]

[with a light bow]

I'm honoured.

[evocationary]

That being said, if you're too unobtrusive, people are going to step all over you. Make sure they don't.

[guestservices]

Are you worried? I'll keep that in mind.

[evocationary]

Little bit! Friend of mine back home had to learn how to stick up for herself the hard way.

You're already on the hard side of the rock, so I don't want you to make it worse for yourself, you feel me?

[guestservices]

Did she? I hope it worked out for her, at least.

[there's something almost like a smile in their voice.]

You don't have to be too concerned. I can stick up for myself when I need to.

[evocationary]

It did.

[lucretia is now a badass. as for the rest:] Good! I hope you keep doing that.

[guestservices]

That's good to hear.

And I'll do my best not to give you reason to worry.
