Vatheon Voicemail.

"Heeeey, Lysunder's voicemail here, and if you weren't looking for me, well then lucky you, leave a message anyway and maybe it will be the start of something revolutionary. Beep."

For the record, that first beep was him just saying beep. The real beep is in a few seconds.

-Beep.-

Uh, I'm- more of an adult than ya think.

Heh, go ahead. Anything you want.

No, you're just a, a weirdo. But you're a really nice weirdo, so it's okay.

[Oh dear, he's getting all flushed and trying to hide behind his hair again.]

Um, how do you make a pretty troll your matesprit..?

A really nice weirdo- [A laugh, sitting back a little.] Sure, I uh, I can take that.

[Beat.]

Why...

There's this really pretty and nice and energetic troll I like! I like her a lot, an' I think maybe she might pity me a little because she was tryin' to take care of me, and I bet I could find something to pity in her if I just learned a little more and she's really nice and pretty...

[Did he say that already?]

Her name's Nepeta and she's the best.

Uh, w-well rule one, go after someone uh- [Glances away.]

[Wow it's... this is really awkward for a lot of reasons.] Who's not got that quadrant full.

Okay!

[Huh, he's taking this better than expec-]

Then what?

[Or not.]

Well, Nepeta's a taken gal, but if yo-ou uh, find someone else, that's good place to start. Then you just want to take some time to get to know them.

...Oh.

[That... is some serious ear droopage.]

[Ow... Summoner pulls in a deep breath.] Uh, yeah. But hey- [Pulls on a smile, looking back to the communicator.]

I know right now she'll wa-wanna be your friend, and to see you more.

No she won't.

[Uh oh, hiding his face behind his hair again.]

Oh no, I ruined everything...

Ruined? Well uh, I know her pretty well I think? Enough to know you- you probably haven't ruined anything. Worse you could do is embarrass yourself w-which really- [A thoughtful look.] Isn't that kinda what pity's about?

I broke her door. An' I left flowers. An' a poem.

[Hiiiiiide.]

But she's taken!

Well breaking things comes w-with any kind of romance. As for the flowers and poetry, well uh, she'll probably really enjoy them, jut not in uh, in that way.

Yeah- that's why you leave y-your sights open. Try embarrassing yourself around someone new that you like. [A chuckle, leaning back a little. By the way, Darkleer, you're already embarrassing yourself right now, this is all both pathetic and adorable.]

That's really how red romance wo-works, right? Just embarrass yourself a lot, you'll catch something.

But what if other people don't take me seriously...?

[He peeks out a little bit, still obviously worried but finding a bit of comfort with Lysunder talking to him more.]
