Yo! Karlach! How are you doing lately? It's been a while.
A friend, hey? Rough or not, I get that. Sometimes it makes things feel a little closer to home.
I'm glad for you!
I'm glad for you!
Sure, yeah! We've got a bar night on the Seventh Heaven happening soon. Feel free to stop by, both of you.
I've never heard of seedcakes before. What are they? Some kind of grain pastry?
I can make some mean scrambled eggs but I don't think I've got much of a specialty. Just enough cooking skills not to burn a ship down.

[ Don't mind him popping into view whenever she picked up, glancing down at the camera before flashing a toothy grin. ]
Yo, Red! I got a commission and need a hand, think you can spare one for me? No one better to have my back on this one.
I gotta make a run to Avalechi for some research and sample gathering. It's gonna be a two-part thing.

Great! We'll be happy to see you! It's mostly to celebrate a year on the ship. Crazy that it's been a whole year already. Time flies.
[And totally not his birthday at all or anything nope.]
Those cakes sound damn delicious too.

You got it, yo. [ A huff of a laugh, not minding he's the only one on video. ]
Gotta grab some fire cores from the little sprites, and I wanted to test some stuff out on the snowy side. Maybe dig around a little more and see if there's anything hidden around there like there was on the volcanic side.
'You up for it, or you need me to grab someone else?

Oh, right, right! Out on Avaleci.
( despite not being visible, she still nods to herself.
then she lets out a loud sigh. )
As much as I'd love to go with you, I think you'll have to ask someone else!
( then she smiles to herself. )
Let's do something when you get back, yeah? Don't you still owe me some drinks? Or a lot of drinks?

[ He heard that tonal shift, and his brows perked as his grin faded to instead swap to something more curiously attentive. ]
Yeah, can do--everything good over there?
Also, maybe it's a lot, but that just means we can get drunk enough to treat Tifa's place to some karaoke.

Yup, a whole year for my crew!
I'd say that's a call for more booze. Let's drink together!

( a little laugh. )
Yeah, yeah! Just sorry I couldn't help you this time.
( which is true. although she finds it to be fairly bewildering for her to experience any kind of scheduling conflict at all. how life has changed since coming here.
then there's a pause. )
I keep hearing people say "karaoke" around here.
( a longer pause. )
What's karaoke?

Don't sweat it, we all got shit to do.
[ He'd pause to listen, then both brows raised with a toothy grin at her question. ]
It's a good time is what it is.
You go out with some friends, get a little tipsy, have some good food, and get up on stage, pick a song, and sing along with it. Some places have booths for private parties, others, you just get up on stage in front of the whole damn place and rock out.

It feels... pretty surreal, if you ask me. Like it went by too quickly.
To be honest with you, I'm in no rush to get back home.

[Jill really should have messaged Karlach first to see if the other woman was even home at this time of day, but her mind has been in a fog of schoolgirlish happiness these last few days and that fog has her completely forgetting her noble lady training. It shows in all her delicate featuresβthe giddy flush of her pale skin, the way she hops from one foot to another in excitement, the easy smile that reaches her eyes that seemingly has no direct cause. The behavior would have gotten her a good scolding from the Duchy governesses. One should be able to control their emotions with the stiffest of upper lips.
But once in a while, such behavior is forgivable, especially knowing Jill has had little in life to be jubilant about. At least it hasn't ended up with Jill neglecting her one week bear turnaround promise and thus, she's rapping lightly on the large mansion's front door.
Hopefully Karlach is not only at home, but nearby to hear the ever so polite sound in this grand place.]

( as luck would have it, karlach has been staying a little closer to home as of late. or almost entirely at home. the last couple of days hadn't been particularly easy and she didn't imagine they were going to get any easier. not anytime soon.
that and it did her good to take a break every now and again.
or so karlach has been telling herself.
all of that is immediately forgotten at the sound of a gentle hand at the door. much like a pet dog, she perks up instantly, visibly brightening at the notion of a visitor. all other concerns thrown to the wind. by the time she actually opens the door, karlach is already smiling. )
Jill!! What brings you here?
( karlach exclaims, her smile breaking out into a wide grin. )
Not just here for the cats, are ya?
( joking. )

No, unfortunately not. I've run out of catnip, so don't tell them I'm visiting.
[Bluetooth would be saddened to hear about the catnip and tell all the other cats here how she's been suffering in Jill's care.
The idea of it makes Jill's smile even bigger, but she shakes her head and continues on with her original mission.]
That said, I do have something animal-like for you.
[She holds out a small brown paper wrapped package. It's soft and squishy, tied with red and black ribbon that matches the decoration around the gift's neck.]
I promised you a week and a week it has been.

Sure there is but there's more important things for me here, now. Don't feel like leaving the love of my life behind, and all that romantic jazz.
Might be a little too late for that alrβ
( she starts, ready to make a comment about how the cats probably knew that jill had arrived before karlach did. warrior cats didn't exactly have an "off mode", so they were always on duty. regardless of time of day. it's incredibly cute.
but karlach's attention shifts to the offered package as soon as jill brings it out, unable to finish the remark. )
Whoa! Incredible! You got it done so fast!
( she exclaims, reaching out to take the package from jill.
without any ceremony, she's already ripping into the package to excitedly pull out the bear. )
And he looks so good!
