[If there's one thing Adstringendum is good at, it's yanking people around. Where Horst had been laughing and giddy the night before, he's...well, not now.]

Mina was sent home. I'm sure those of you who knew here are aware, but....

[But he personally checked everywhere she could possibly have gone. Just in case. Hope springs eternal, they say.

As he shuts off the feed, there's the faint sound of something German-sounding. Or maybe it was just static.

[A few hours later: Private Video to Raven]

Are you awake?

I slept a few hours.

[His tone is dismissive. He's got better things to do in this place than sleep -- something about it puts him on edge, anyway.]

I've been trying to setup a halfway worthwhile laboratory.

[Horst sighs, but the work is better than dwelling. At least that's what he tells himself.]

I'll move some of the heavy things around for you, then. You're scrawny as a bird.

[..]

Scrawny?

[Johannes is not a vain man by any means. There's just something about that word. :|]

If you were any taller or paler I'd mistake you for a stork.

[Blandly.]

This is the stunning maturity I have missed so much.

You work on your charming social skills and I'll try to evolve into a more refined gentleman, hm?

You're certainly more amicable than you were when I rescued you from the crypt. How long did you say you'd been here, again?

[He is choosing his words carefully. Johannes rarely says things without planning them first.]

[Long, long pause. And a very cold look.]

'Rescued' me?

[Johannes is assuming a very cavalier attitude about this entire conversation.]

I hope you didn't think it was my intention to leave you in there forever.

Just until I died, then.

[Be glad Horst isn't home right now.]

[Oh, don't worry, he is.]

And that's what I don't understand. You didn't kill me then, either, when you had the chance.

I didn't kill you when, Johannes? You left me there and she killed me.

[This conversation should be private, and had Horst been just a little bit less disturbed and hurt he would've switched the filter.]

When I came back for you, idiot. This place has pulled us from different times, or hasn't it occurred to you that I'm almost nine years older than the last time we saw each other?

As I said: you didn't leave me any way to keep track of time, du Hurensohn. And it--

[He has to swallow; his voice had cracked, and it wasn't exactly dignified. Cabals are always dignified.

Or not. When he speaks he just sounds small, defeated.

You didn't come back the next day. You let me die.

[He was expecting anger. He knew how to deal with anger -- he and Horst grew up causing hell for each other.

He wasn't, however, expecting that.

Really? A part of him asks, and he has the uncomfortable sensation that it's his soul rearing its ugly and nearly worthless head again.]


Horst.

[His voice is a little baffled. The venom is suddenly gone.]

I'm sorry.

-- don't get any ideas, Horst, it was just an apology, even children are capable..

[Even after that long silence, Horst opens his mouth and has nothing to say. Except:]

why?

This isn't a conversation I want to be having now, and especially not over one these devices.
