April 16th

Fin picked up the phone and wedge it between his ear and the pillow because he didn't have the energy to hold it with his hand. "Hello?" he breathed.

"Fin. It's Cris."

"Aye?" keeping his answers short because his entire abdomen was sore.

"Fin, I am so sorry."

"Why?" he asked with a frown, confused as to why Cris would be apologizing to him.

"I just---I am. I'm sorry. Rest, please. You've only a couple days left of this."

"S'alrigh'," he murmured, not wanting Cris to be upset. "Do no' fash yerself." Couple of more days? That was a little disheartening but Fin didn't dwell on it, was too busy trying to kick off covers because he suddenly felt flush and hot all over.

"All right, all right. Try to rest, yes?"

There wasn't much else Fin could do at this point anyway so he nodded. And then realized Cris couldn't see that. "Aye. Thank ye for callin'." Paused to take a breath. "Was nice o' ye."

"Yes, yes it was. Is. May I speak to Ketch?"

There was a huff of breath and a tiny smile curled reflexively as Cris patted himself on the back but he gave the phone back to the man hovering nearby.

Text to Cris, 12:45 a.m.: Moon's high, no change. No symptoms. We'll stay as is until morning.

Text to Cris: I'm fine. Fin is not enjoying the precautions, but he's maintaining.

Text to Cris: Might've asked you the same question the other night. You alright?

Text to Fin: Hello Fin thanks for your interest in the job, just picked up your note from the Penny Moon. Free Wednesday, so we could meet face to face to discuss? If not, suggest a day and time as I am flexible at the moment. Think Teas & Tomes is best. Madi

Text to Sabine: Anytime. Was a good show.

Text to Sabine: Where do you keep that thing? It looks like it'd put a hurting on your fancy shoes.

Sabine

Date: 2015-08-12 23:50 EST
Text to Ketch: Thanks for saying so.

Text to Ketch: He's the alter ego of my vagina. Slobbering and hungry.

Text to Ketch: Kidding of course. I summon him. He doesn't exist unless I want him to.

Ketch Creeley

Date: 2015-08-12 23:58 EST
Text to Sabine: Jesus. That is a really vivid illustration.

Text to Sabine: Really, really vivid.

Text to Sabine: There were teeth and claws, too. Is that also a replication of your female anatomy?

Text to Sabine: Strike that question, probably better left as a great unknown.

Sabine

Date: 2015-08-13 00:01 EST
Text to Ketch: You know me, never short on dramatics.

Text to Ketch: You'd know better than anyone. Silly question Creeley.

Text to Ketch: You've created a monster in your absence. All males from here on out shall deal with Chupagina.

Text to Ketch: I'm hungry. Despite this very disgusting convo. Don't suppose you are too and free? It's Midnight...

Ketch Creeley

Date: 2015-08-13 00:27 EST
Text to Sabine: Nah. Just short in general.

Text to Sabine: Things might have developed in the interim.

Text to Sabine: ... You should probably suggest they get top notch health insurance then prior to, uh, engaging that beast.

Text to Sabine: I'm tying up some loose ends. Raincheck? Assuming your appetite is as predictable as Fin's.

Sabine

Date: 2015-08-13 00:38 EST
Text to Ketch: Ohhh look at you with the short jokes.

Text to Ketch: Alright I've got no comebacks. You suck.

Text to Ketch: Suggest good insurance? And ruin the surprise? Naaah.

Text to Ketch: Tying up loose ends eh? Sounds like my kind of night.

Text to Ketch: If it's after midnight when you cash in the raincheck, then yep. Otherwise we could manage some place less greasy.

Text to Ketch: Take care.

Ketch Creeley

Date: 2015-08-13 01:00 EST
Text to Sabine: I will take that as a victory. Probably a short-lived one.

Text to Sabine: Go on, try it as a pick up line. I dare you. "Do you have catastrophic coverage?" Dudes will love it, trust me.

Text to Sabine: We might not be using tying as a metaphor for the same things there.

Text to Sabine: The options are endless and the nights are long. We'll figure out something.

Text to Sabine: You too.

Benjamin Piers

Date: 2015-10-20 17:24 EST
While Ketch and Fin were out, a package wrapped in brown paper arrived, and was waiting on their doorstep. It was addressed to Ketch, from Benjamin Piers.

Inside...

And a note:

"Couldn't find any more rats, but I did find this fellow. Wind him up and fill him with water and teabags, it makes and pours tea. Turn the red switch in back, and it spews hot tea when something moves near it. It's kind of a desk top watch dog thing, I think.

Text to Mackenzie (12:42 am): Lirssa texted me. A group is going to see The Snow Queen ballet and you're supposed to come. You in? I don't have dates/times yet. Here is Lirssa's # ***-***-****. Text her or let me know.

Text to Benjamin: I'm going to wait until you're over some time to let Fin be the guinea pig for the watchdog properties.

It was late and Fin had dozed off, rousing only to lurch toward the bathroom when a blinking light caught his eye. A hand swiped clumsily at the phone, bobbled it with a save just before hitting the floor. Many muttered curses later, the screen lit, making him wince and squint to protect his eyes from the brightness. A message was caught and he chuckled, tapping something out quickly before falling back into bed.

Text to Sabine: aye wee bit, will see u tomorrow for day show

Sabine

Text to Mackenzie (8:45 pm): Don't know yet. I'm seeing him again Thursday I think. He has kind of weird schedule, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

Text to Mackenzie (8:46 pm): I'll probably fly solo or me and Aoife will go together. Can I save you a dance?

FinMack

Text to Fin and Ketch (8:00 am): Do either of you have the number of a shoveling company or those fire mages? I am trapped inside.

Text to Fin and Ketch (8:01 am): The snow plow pushed all the road snow towards the sidewalk and packed what was there right up against my door.

Text to Fin and Ketch (8:01 am): I tried tunneling but only had a soup ladle.

Text to Fin and Ketch (8:02 am): I tried the fire escape from the upstairs window but I've got nowhere to land that isn't piled with snow taller than me.

Text to Fin and Ketch (8:02 am): I am so bored. Can you tell? I've been stuck inside since Friday night.

FinMack

Text to Fin: That is a book character. The Count of Monte Cristo. You should read it. It's a movie too. I think you'd really like it. I can see some similarities between Edmond and you.

Text to Sabine, March 8, 2016: That's a good question.

Text to Sabine, March 8, 2016: Depends on whether you need the extra cargo space, whether you plan on carting your friends around. And also whether or not you envisioned using it for other things. Like side-of-the-road fucking.

Text to Fin: Heavy as fuck. I know because I tried to kick it inside.

Text to Fin: Which is also where the dent came from.

Text to Fin: Happy Easter! Also, your mission should you choose to accept it: Find as many Eastery type eggs as you've the urge for. They're scattered, pretty much all over town. If it's a public type area, and not a super-super bad one, there's eggs there.
If you choose to accept this mission, gather your team and have at.

Text to Fin: There are, so very many. Thousands I think? We've been working on them for a while.

Text to Fin: o.o I, don't know if you can get them all, but you're more'n welcome to try! Or, y'know, when you're tired of lugging around your loaded down basket, you could call it good.

Text to Fin: There's egg-eggs, candy eggs, sugar eggs, chocolate eggs, plastic eggs with prizes inside, cookie eggs, uhm, lots of eggsy things.

I've spoken to Ketch recently.

He mentioned that you may have taken shelter with Lucy through what's transpired in town.

I'm glad to hear that.

FinMack

Date: 2017-03-06 01:37 EST
It had been some time since Fin had actively sought out company, either friends or strangers. His life had fallen into the security of routine, a comfortable rut that contained all of the questions that would never have answers.

It was a surprise to see a text from Crispin and too late, Fin realized there was another one before it, an older text that had gone unanswered. A stab of guilt pinched his stomach as he swiped at the screen.

Text to Cris: shelter with Lucy?

Text to Cris: what happened in city?

Text to Cris: r u ok?

Crispin

Date: 2017-03-06 19:36 EST
To Fin

In a word, lunacy.

There was an attempted "cleansing" by mundanes against non-mundanes, town-wide.

It was shut down within twenty-four hours, but tensions still run high.

I'm all right, as well. Thank you, Fin.

Text to Fin: I've set a large and cunning trap in the stables which is baited with the menu to Gran's Home Cooking, a little Scottish joint. So please just walk into the stable without looking up. I will free you at my leisure and then sacrifice you to a bunch of little old ladies with accents and cheek pinching fetishes.

Text to Fin: J/K some of the little old ladies are young and hot and I haven't ascertained their fetishes yet.

Text to Fin: Message me whenever you've been trapped or the varmints will just assume you're theirs to toy with.

A text arrives to Ketch's phone sometime after the soul's midnight; 3am. The number is not local and goes to a dead line.

Words. But there's words. It's all she's got right now. And the ability, perhaps, to raise hairs on neck.

Text: Hisser Pass. Midnight. Tonight.

Text: Come alone.

Text: It's me.
