[When the SFC turns on, things are a little different. It's a different face than usual, a tired, annoyed face, and the caller ID simply reads 'Carol'.

She adjusts her glasses, stares into the screen, and breathes out an aggravated sigh.]

Hey...what do you call yourselves? Vatheonites or something?

I've got a question for you all, since you're already trying your best to ruin everything we're working on. Have any of you seen that priestess around? ...Thalassino, right?

I want to talk to her, so...let me know.

[Another huff and she rolls her eyes, muttering something before she turns off the device--]

A coupla credits isn't worth all of this hassle.

'Everything you're working on'. Would it be completely unfounded to hazard a guess that you are at least acquainted with the scientists that we have heard of?

[Darkleer's voice is simple and neutral, matter of fact.]

[voice/private]

[thalassino]

Good guess. What tipped you off?

[She rolls her eyes at that, propping her chin on a hand.]

Got a point or an answer for me?

[video]

[prominence_glow]

First of all, pay more attention to the freakin' bubble and maybe, one, you wouldn't be having use wreck everything, and two, you'd know no one has seen her in freakin' ages.

Second, the hell are you?

[Lea is just a shining example of politeness.]

[video]

[thalassino]

Hey! How do you know we're not paying attention, anyway?

Sheesh. You're all so impatient.

[She blows out her breath in annoyance.]

First...Ages, huh? How long is ages if you were to put a number to it? And second...Carol. Call me Carol.

[seablaze]

Che. You and your lot were the one who ruined my coat.

[Arms crossed against his chest.] Good luck finding the priestess. Haven't heard nor seen the likes of her for quite a while.

[video]

[thalassino]

Oh no. Heaven forbid we ruin your coat out of everything. Do you want to hold a funeral for it?

...Hm. That's what I've heard...

[She bites her lip then, glancing away, looking mildly perturbed.]

[lamorteblanc]

[ One raised eyebrow from this particular doctor. ]

I can't say we have. It's been quite a while since we've seen hide nor hair of that priestess.

[ A beat. ]

You must be new. Possibly an intern if I may hazard a guess?

[thalassino]

[Oh yeah? She can arch an eyebrow right back.]

What's it to you what I am?

...Thanks though. For answering. Even if that's not helpful at all.

[VIDEO]

[bethehugejerk]

YOU.

[How do you like an angry troll, Carol?]

You're one of the ones involved with the shit that went down around Halloween! What the fuck was that? What were you doing, why the hell did you take people, and what did you even do to them? If not for me calming Gamzee down after that people might have wound up dead, and don't you even try to tell me shit would have been alright just because they would have revived five days later. That doesn't buy you one single fucking excuse.

And what the fuck is with the fairies? It exploded on my face, you fuckwads!

Even if I did know where Thalassino is I wouldn't tell you shit.

[VIDEO]

[thalassino]

[She does not like an angry troll, not one bit.

Though she just props her hand on her chin and looks at him, not altogether looking too bothered. She almost looks a little bored.]

Should I go in alphabetical or sequential order with those questions?

[Video]

[sechstel]

And just what is it that you're working on? Perhaps if we knew, we wouldn't be 'ruining' it.

[Video]

[thalassino]

I thought that one was obvious. This. Everything. You know?

[Video]

[closedcircuit]

I'm sure we'd be less likely to ruin it if you told us what your goals were.

Or maybe more likely, if your goals are to do evil.

[Video]

[thalassino]

..."To do evil"? For your information, this is for the good of everyone.

Not that I really have to justify this to you, but I'll be nice.

Video

[zelda_hylia]

I have not seen her. Apologies for "ruining everything", but you might want to tell the higher ups that more information is a good thing. In fact, there are people among those that have been pulled here to Vatheon that would be glad to stay even if we could return, and more yet who would willingly provide services in exchange for being able to return home periodically.

Video

[thalassino]

...Yeah. Sorry, but that's just not possible.

But thanks for the answer, I guess.

[ninthserenade]

Ruining things? What the heck, man?

[thalassino]

What. You've got something to say against that?

voice;

[bombtossing]

What the hell do you mean by 'ruin' everything?! Not like it's our faults we're here in the first place!

voice;

[thalassino]

Yeah? I didn't say you were doing a bad job at being here. You're all too nosy for your own good.

[chosen_gigolo]

Haven't seen a priestess around, Carol-hunny♥ Sorry to say. I'll keep my eyes peeled for you, though. Anything else the Great Zelos can do to help a bespectacled cutie like yourself?

[And he's using his best bedroom eyes too~]

Video

[thalassino]

[Carol-hunny. Carol-hunny.]

Are you for real?

[SCOWL SCOWL SCOWL.]

[red_medic]

Vell. If your little labrats are ruining your little experiment oder vhatever it ist you may be calling it, Fräulein, zhen maybe you should keep zhem under better control. It ist not like any of us ist hier because ve chose to be so. Neizher haff ve been told vhat ist exprected of us. So zhe one you might vant to blame ist solely yourself for not planning ahead und set everyzhing up accordingly. Zhere truly are some faults in your setup if it ist zhat easy to ruin it.

[Just a dry chuckle.]

But you are velcome. I am sure most of us are glad to be of assistanze.

[Video]

[thalassino]

[She just levels a deadpan stare on the screen.]

Uh huh. Your complaints have been noted. And ignored.

[brbstealingpknm]

[After reading the answers that he could - and laughing out loud at what he saw of Lea's, Silver's torn between amusement and annoyance when he finally replied to this.] ... Tch. While I don't know, I want answers myself.

Vid

[thalassino]

[...Hmph.]

Don't we all? If you don't know anything, I don't really have time to waste on you.

[Video]

[scaresplants]

If you're looking for Thalassino, you've been missing a lot around here. She hasn't been seen for ages.

Who are you, anyways?

[Video]

[thalassino]

Yeah? Well? Got anything more helpful than that?

And I'm Carol. Who are you?

[gun_symphony]

I'm not exactly sure what we're ruining, but I have a feeling we'll find out soon enough.

At any rate, you were asking about the priestess, right? Even though I have never met her in person, she was last seen warning us about those shadows that would attack people a few months ago. After that, she hasn't been seen since.

[thalassino]

...Thanks. It's good to see that some of you people can be helpful.

video;

[ex_diplomacy861]

I can't say. What does this priestess look like? Does she appear in public often?

video;

[thalassino]

...I don't really know.

Sorry. I know that's pretty useless for looking for someone. But I've never seen her myself. She disappeared a few months ago, according to some of the people on here.

[by_my_will]

And how is it that we're ruining anything?

[thalassino]

Because you're all too nosy for your own good. Heh, not that I blame you for that one.
