IC CONTACT (ACATALEPSY)

" Salutations! You have reached the phone of Bolin. If you are receiving this message it must mean that I am off tending to matters of grave importance, matters of, perhaps, life and death, but fret not! I will return the correspondence at my earliest convenience.
At the sound of Pabu's adorable voice, please ... leave your message. "
[ Pabu makes a chattering noise, and the voicemail stops. ]

text + voice(?)
[ There is a brief interlude in between with what sounds like static and then a splash of water, but the communicator cuts off seconds after. ]
jkmmmmkkj;?
i didnt get the notif like why .... wtf
Uhhhh. Hey. Spilled your tea?
no subject
[ It cuts to again to voice– there's some more splashing, it sounds vaguely like it might be underwater for a few minutes. There's a scream that sounds not entirely human, and then it goes silent for a few minutes
Some ruffling noises follow and then Zero can be heard– speaking way too loudly into the communicator. ]
What? What do you want?!
[ she doesn't realize she buttdialed. ]

There's a moment where he's staring at her keysmash, trying to decipher it. Is that an acronym? Is it a secret code where you have to replace every letter with some other letter or some wild nonsense like that?
So mysterious. ]
no subject
[ Are they finally using words now? ] Oh. Hey there, my fair ... Lady of the Stoves?
[ She like never gave him a name so that's what he's going with until she does. ]
no subject
[ Actually, you know what. That doesn't matter– ]
– never mind! What're you doing right now and do you have something dry on you??
no subject
[ What's going on, what's happening, what does she want!! ]
no subject
[ He will hear what is the faint sound of splashing, yet again on the other line. ]
Bring it to the lake.
[ And with that she hangs up. ]
voice -> action
I'm here ... [ God, he should really learn her name. ] Uh. Like you asked.
no subject
Thanks.
[ She snatches the shirt out of his hands and wipes her face. ]
– fucking mermaids took my bracelet thing. Had to get it back.
[ She peers at him from under the shirt-towel. ]
I'm not washing this before I give it back, by the way.
no subject
He kind of rushed over without thinking so the shirt he offered happened to be the one he was wearing. Now he's standing here without a shirt and his nipples are cold, but it's fine. It's all fine. At least he helped a friend out. ]
It's good that you're alright, in that case. I hear they love shoving people into the water.
no subject
[ Before he can so much as respond she passes him the few items she has on her person– the muddy sword, and bracelet communicator thing so that she doesn't have them weighing her down while she tries to dry off.]
You know, I'm kind of surprised you came. I mean, I told you to– but I figured you'd just tell me to fuck off or ignore it. That's what I probably would've done.

There you go, pulling that shit again–
[ She pulls it from her head entirely, and frowns. ]
Look, this whole running to people's beck and call without asking any questions.. without asking for anything, it needs to stop.
[ Never mind that again, she'd called him and told him to be here. ]
.. What do you want? Like.. as a thank you, or whatever.
no subject
Oh, I don't really want anything in return. Unless you mean what I want in general ...? Like, right now? [ Then he starts to scratch his chin and think. ] I guess, steamed buns? Or a new shirt.
[ But that's not said in any expectation that she has to fulfill his requests. ]

( friendly neighborhood avatar here!! )
Have some time to chat?
WHY DIDNT I GET THIS NOTIF ..... stares at denise
Korra! Of course. I always have time for you. [ Is he dropping whatever he's doing because Korra just blessed him with attention? Yeah. ]
breakin up the dream team .... :(
( why does she never think about what she's going to say before she says it. )
Uh. Has Mako ... mentioned anything, recently?
denise how could you
Depends. Mako says a lot of things to me. Sometimes about some work he's doing, sometimes he's disapproving, sometimes he communicates in exasperated sighs ...
You'd have to be a bit more specific.
no subject
( after a second, she specifies. just a little! )
And Asami?

no subject
( she frowns, suddenly reluctant about this whole thing. nervous, down to the fiber make up of her being. internally, she knows bolin wouldn't be anything less than excited - or she hopes that's the case. in reality, it's hard to put a name to, and even harder to say out loud. )
We're ...
( we liked each other. easy as that! just say it, korra.
instead, she groans, a little frustrated. )
Look, can we meet up? I have a present for you, anyway.
no subject
I do like presents. [ Has never denied a present. ] Are you in our apartment? I could go to you.
voice - day 3 in the caverns
( he doesn't sound too badly off. a little tired, maybe, but that's really it. )
no subject
Just fine. But I've come to the conclusion that I'm really not about eels. They act just as mean as they look.
no subject
( since... the eels can sap powers, and all. korra's been without her bending, but bo never has. it's bound to be upsetting. )
