VIDEO CALL ☏ TO HIS FRIENDS IN FAILBOAT

[nepotism]

[ some of you get a message from Fred Jr. on your phones - those who knew him back at the castle.  he looks pretty grave as he addresses your voicemail: ]

Hey, some of us saw what went down out there, and we just wanna make sure you're all doin' alright.  

And by we, I mean me.  So uh, give me a call.

[who has time for that facetiming shit. Besides, Spike's busy repressing and being surly. Texting's easier.]

I'm fine.

[nepotism]

Good to hear. I only saw a couple of you on the news, so I wasn't sure about the others.

[bigbad]

[nepotism]

[bigbad]

[nepotism]

[bigbad]

a singer.

[For the simple version.......]

[nepotism]

kinda guessed that part.

Something to do with the mission?

[bigbad]

we were protecting her.

[Also not the full story, but Spike isn't exactly in exposition mode so soon after her death. That's the most important part, anyway.]

[nepotism]

Sorry to hear.

[bigbad]

rest of us are all right at least.

[nepotism]

no one else was answering me, but i figure you guys must be pretty busy.

[bigbad]
