[Private Calls: Backdated to Sunday afternoon]

[Both Pietro and Kurt get voice messages left on their phones in the late afternoon on Sunday. They're both pretty much identical, too.]

Hey, uh. It's the Toad. You okay? We spotted some light comin' from your way and, uh, just wanted to check in. Call me back.

[And then he hangs up. And sits by the phone all night. He's worried, okay?]

[The response doesn't take very long.]

Ja, there was an attack on the city. Um, I'm okay. Pietro got hurt, but I got him the hospital. I, uh, I think he'll be okay.

[Kurt's voice is usually irritatingly emotive even if he's talking about nothing. At the moment it's soft and strangely flattened out.]

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-05 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Um... Nothing that I really want to talk about over the network. In case they're paying attention.

[Why shouldn't they? Not like the attack bothered them any.]

I'm in one piece. It sounds like he'll be okay.

[He should go check on the guy.]
thefuzzyguy: (inducerworried)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-05 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Nein, I didn't think to ask.

[He doesn't trust it, either. Kurt's not good at computers, but a far as he can tell, they're only good until someone who knows how to mess with them gets there, and the only reason the scary totalitarian overlords would have not to break the codes would be politeness.]

He can probably tell you about it when he gets back to you.

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-06 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
Um...

[Eh, why bother.]

No. But I'm not hurt, so close enough.
thefuzzyguy: (wary)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-07 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, that gives him an out that isn't attempting to talk about feelings. With the Toad. Over the monitored network for an audience of scary technocratic supersoldiers.]

Ja. Plague. That's it.
thefuzzyguy: (wary)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-08 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ja, what kind of stupid plague comes back for you?

[That's incere, if spiritless. That really is just unfair.]
thefuzzyguy: (wary)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-10 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Ja, I'm just... doing sick stuff, I guess. The hospital has way too much to do. Hopefully it'll lay off after a while. Und I'll just stare at the ceiling. Well, the sky, right now. Whatever.

[He sounds a little more like himself. He's babbling, at least, which is standard Kurt.]
thefuzzyguy: (inducerpout)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-11 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Probably. They kept him at the hospital, and while I was taking him there he was doing the thing where he talks too fast to understand. But I'm sure he was bitching.

[That's always a safe bet.]
thefuzzyguy: (inducersuspicious)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-11 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
[That's pretty much how Kurt feels about it.]

Ja, but if he hadn't been he'd have been whining or insulting everybody, anyway.
thefuzzyguy: (inducersmile)

[personal profile] thefuzzyguy 2012-12-11 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, uh...

[He doesn't have the energy to be a decent conversationalist, but not being alone with just memories for company has been nice.]

Ja, probably get on with your day. Take care of yourself, mein freund.

[It takes a while for Pietro to get back to Todd. It's the next day, in fact. And he's looking kinda... pale. Yeah, Quicksilver is definitely getting sick again.]

The Authorities thought we didn't have enough to deal with. But we kicked their asses back to that dome. [Sure, that's how it happened.]

Kurt's a drama queen! [Pietro rolls his eyes.] I got zapped a little. Not any worse than fighting Storm.
cantcatchme: (Gloating)

[personal profile] cantcatchme 2012-12-19 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well, only because he insisted! I just stayed because I'm getting sick again. [He crosses his arms - one bandaged - and sulks a little. He doesn't have the energy for this.]
cantcatchme: (Smirk)

[personal profile] cantcatchme 2012-12-21 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Pff. You can't tell me to do nothing!

[By now, Todd might be able to pick up that Pietro's putting on an act. Being a jerk is how he deals with scary situations he can't control.]

I'll do what I want. I'm not dying yet.
