there's no room in this budget for fees of calling the afterlife. respond if breathing.

[ Sometimes it takes hours for her to respond, Mako's attention focused on the immediacy of the missions at hand. Often times it makes her feel guilty, regret slipping between her ribs like a shiv, but she knows that if the PPDC fails then there will be nothing for her to return to and no world for Gary (even alone) to exist in. Tonight, however, she responds almost immediately despite the time difference. ]

International texting is expensive.

[ A mild admonishment. He shouldn't waste them on her. ]

Raleigh Becket is here.

[ It seems an innocuous enough sentence but for somebody like Gary, somebody who knows what it is that Mako has been vying for (an attempt to copliot Gispy after all her long work restoring her), it's a loaded comment. ]

[He's tied up when it first comes through, so it's only silence on his end for awhile. When he see's the sentence, he know what it means and it takes him awhile to formulate his response. Steps have to be taken, moves had to be made. It's another piece on the chessboard.]

Subtle.

I heard word from London that a security expert was accompanying Sherlock Holmes around the city.

[ Her response comes at a delay. There was a problem with the spinal clamp to Raleigh's suit and she's spent a good portion of the evening trying to diagnose the issue. ]

How can I help?

[ So they get phones. Shiny ones that take them months to pay-off after the fact. But apparently that's what modern people do. Have phones.

And text. ]

I miss our pocket watches.

[unkindly]

[Modern whatevers. Jack doesn't understand a lot of it, but it seems easier to grasp than Zelien and the Charon and all of it. At least there's no sudden transportation to places unknown. That's a relief.]

i dont, not really

[wont]

[ Alayne has seen too many worlds to ever feel comfortable or settled in any of them. Even though their stay here stretches week after week she's constantly frightened that one day she'll wake somewhere new, without Jack, alone. It's a fear she keeps mostly to herself but she thinks sometimes he might suspect... ]

They seemed so much simpler.
Sometimes I think the modern world exists only to make me feel stupid.

The fact that I have to tell you is precisely my point.

MESSAGE: There is something I wanted to ask. When did Kaijus first show up?


[ He actually has other reasons for calling her but, smalltalk. Also genuine curiosity. ]

[synchronised]

[ It's funny (—is funny the right word—) how messages from him display the user "big.boss". It's an observation that has always left Mako curious but she's never had the opportunity or the gumption to ask. ]

Kaiju first made landfall in San Fransico on August 10th, 2013.
It's a date everyone in my world remembers.

Why do you ask?
