IC CONTACT POST

[A woman's voice comes over the line.]

You've reached the Trickster's voicemail. Unfortunately, Mr. Trickster isn't available to take your call, nor will he likely ever be. Should you still wish to leave a message, please respond after the tone, and maybe we'll remember to get it to him, mmkay?

That's... It wouldn't hurt him. It would be his choice if he wanted to.

But you'd still be kinda hurt, right? I mean, he's your friend and you looking out for him wasn't good enough- he had to go and pull something like that.

I wouldn't be hurt! He's not doing anything bad, and nothing bad would happen because of it. I'd be happy he wanted to help people.

Nothing bad, except his soul would eventually be in the hands of something else, whether physically or just metaphorically. You see, that's what people always say, Ahiru. They think- oh what the hell? It's just my soul, right? What can it hurt? And then the next thing you know, the contract's up and someone's facedown in a pool of their own blood, the apocalypse is banging on the door, and someone's soul is on a rack downstairs getting the humanity tortured out of it.

Nothing good comes out of that kind of sacrifice. Just pain of the worst kind. I've seen it. It ain't pretty.

Nothing's going to take my soul! Physically or metaphorically. I already told you that. I wouldn't have done it if that's what was going to happen.

Do you think these things actually give you the real fine print? They wouldn't sell anything if they told you the full story. There's something wrong with this. Big time. I can smell it.

Just because I didn't-

[SHE DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY THAT. Pause.]

There's nothing wrong with it! I can help people now. That's a good thing.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

You could help people before too.

[PAUSE]

Didn't... What?

Video;

[quackery.livejournal.com]

Not in the same way.

[ALSO A PAUSE though she tries to keep it short so he won't get even more suspicious.]

Nothing.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

No, but it would've been a better way.

[TOO LATE]

Ahiru...

[quackery.livejournal.com]

This is a good way.

What?

Video;

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

I've heard that before.

[Sigh]

You didn't what? You can't hide everything from me, y'know. I've got good ears.

[quackery.livejournal.com]

It's true this time!

I said it's nothing.

Video;

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Okay. I'll let it go this time. But this ain't over, kiddo.

[quackery.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is!
