[Guess who's back to his old grumpy Lombax self? You'd think he'd be a little more relieved than he looked right then and there, auburn eyes narrowed and ears folded back threateningly.]

I want a status report of one Nunnally Vi Britannia. Several attempts to contact her SFC have gone unanswered, and with what happened in this recent curse...

[He cuts off, glancing off to the side and muttering something foul in Lombaxian.]

And I don't want to hear she's 'vanished'. I want solid, viable proof.

She's not gone. Nobody is simply gone.

I know plenty of 'dead' people here, which... says a lot on its own, dont'cha think?

I gotta admit, though, I never met Nunally. But if she'd had such an effect on ya, then I've got no doubt she'll be okay.

...if you were to say that anywhere other than here, I would be concerned for your mental state.

I... have known a few strong-willed people in my life, which is why I'm not assuming her to be 'gone' or killed. She's somewhere, and we just need to find her.

I'm not crazy. Life is.

But I promise I will search high and low for her.Any friend of yours is a friend of mine.

Insanity is infectious, you know.

Though... I must thank you. And if you find any clue to her whereabouts, you're to report to me personally in the junkyard. Understood?

[He smiles and salutes, super friendly.]

Any clue, any idea, and yer gunna be the first ta hear it. I give the king's word!

[double_edged]

...wait. You're a king?

[takesyoubytheheart]

Yeah.

Did I not mention that?

[he shrugs. no big.]

Well, I don't usually tell people. Doesn't really help out much.

Oh! Uh.

[Even though they're over a video network, the Lombax still rises from his seat to drop to one knee, supporting himself with the Omniwrench and placing a fist to his armour.]

Do forgive my brashness Your Majesty, sir.

[Blink. Blink.

he even looks around as if to say '... the hell?']

Uh... C'mon, Alister! Get up! I don't need any of that! It's still just me, Mickey!

[double_edged]

Y-yes sir. Of course, sir.

[SHOULDN'T-A DONE THAT MICKEY. Now he's stuck like this.]

[takesyoubytheheart]

And knock it off with the sir stuff! See, this is why I don't tell anyone! They treat me different!

I'm not a born ruler or related ta anyone important... I married a princess, we became King and Queen. I'm the same as I've always been.

I mean no respect, but why would you want to be treated as a commoner? To gain a status of King... I would be honored.

[takesyoubytheheart]

Because I'm no better or more important than anyone else. I see everyone as equals. The only thing that separates me from anyone else is a title... and I only got that 'cause I married the woman I love. It got me more responsibility, but I woulda helped out the kingdom even if I didn't rule over it.

[double_edged]

You would prefer to be treated as anyone else here? Strong words from a King, but... I'll have to respect that.

[He stands up, but he can't help but still be tense simply out of instinct.]

If only because you're helping me.

[takesyoubytheheart]

Guess I better start helpin' ya out now, before ya start kneelin' more.

[double_edged]

I don't think you'd be able to stop me otherwise.
