[Audio only]

Dear Ritsu,

Hello my dear. I am contacting you to check in and see how you are. We have had no contact in some time and I have become worried. How are you and Teto? I do hope you are alright. Please respond to this as soon as you get it.

Sincerely,

Dr. Finitevus

[Audio clicks on, but there's only silence for several seconds.]

Ritsu... say something...

[the voice sounds choked, and slightly more mechanical than usual]

I'm... fine...

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

My dear, you do not sound fine at all. What is wrong?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

It's nothing... [a pause. He clears his throat sharply.] Really.

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

[Finitevus sounds truly concerned]

Please my dear, you do not sound yourself. I promised to help and protect you and Teto. I cannot fulfill my end of the bargain if you do not talk to me. Please my dear.

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

It's nothing! Everyone needs to just leave me the damn hell alone!

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

[Finitevus paused for a moment.]

I see. Very well. I will cease with those questions. However, how is Teto?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

... haven't heard from her.

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

[Finitevus' concerned voice returns]

Oh dear. Has she gone missing?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

[dryly] Doubt it.

She's probably with that bas-- ... she's probably with Dell Honne. [he doesn't sound particularly happy about the prospect of that]

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

[Finitevus' voice changes slightly. The concern ebbs a bit.]

Do you require my assistance to retrieve her? I can help you if you wish. Just who is this Dell Honne person anyway?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

He's harmless. The fact that they're getting along at all is... actually a good thing, no matter how much I despite him.

He's one of the Vocaloids. Twin brother to Haku Yowane.

{Realization comes to Finitevus' voice]

I see. Well, nonetheless, if you wish, I could check up on Teto for you. That way I could tell you how she is, and you do need not go near those you despise. What do you say?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

Hnn. ... she doesn't know I'm working with you.

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

I can keep my presence to a minimal. Or I could explain the situation to her. Merely tell her you wished for me to make sure she didn't need anything. Would either of those work?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

No. Don't. She doesn't need to know about this.

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

Very well. If that is what you wish, my dear. However, should you need me, use this entry to get a hold of me. With the security I placed upon it, no one other than yourself or I may use it. Feel free to contact me anytime you need me.

Also, you still have the Warp Ring I gave you, right?

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

Yes. I still have it...

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

Good. I wanted to make sure. Well, I will be checking up on you more often from now on. And remember, you may contact me any time you need me.

[25tontrap.livejournal.com]

I know.

[warp-ring-tech.livejournal.com]

Very well. Do stay safe, my dear.

Hello again Ritsu. How are you? I'm checking in on you to make sure everything is alright. I haven't heard from you. Is everything okay?
