[Here's the voice of a possibly familiar British gent. Some may know him as a Transport from the past, others may recognise the iconic charm, while plenty may well just think he sounds like a total dick. All would be correct. Whatever your thought, he's back, masterfully managing a tone of smug disinterest as he addresses the community as a whole.]

Looks like the Initiative are still up to their usual tricks. Can't really blame them for wanting me back. [He is perfect, after all.

A beat, thoughtful, as if he's considering his words, briefly wondering on whether to use this opportunity to chase up on facts and information only to settle with a conceited:]

Miss me?

Comments

[stillbetter]

Can't miss what you don't know, I'm afraid.

[but she doesn't sound unkind.

She sounds British.]

[doubleoohbaby]

[Yes. Good. Fellow countrymen and women.]

Always time to get to know one another in this place.

[stillbetter]

Unless someone decides to take you back again, of course.

Or us.

[she can only hope.]

[doubleoohbaby]

Then we'll just have to make the most of the short time we may have. [With sex.]

[stillbetter]

[mr bond pls i'm engaged]

Terribly optimistic of you.

[pause.]

Why do you think they would want you back?

[or were you just talking out of your toned arse]

[doubleoohbaby]

[Engaged? Even better!]

Not sure, if I'm honest. They must be getting desperate. [From arrogance straight to self-deprecation. How very patriotic of him.]

[stillbetter]

[blushu]

Ah. I have no doubt about that. I'm here, after all.

[doubleoohbaby]

You mean to say you're not packed to the brim with super powers? I'm disappointed. [Snerk.]

[stillbetter]

Oh, no. But they did give me a set of headphones. [Helpful!

Not really, no.]

[doubleoohbaby]

Headphones? One of their 'special' weapons?

[Why are these headphones of note? He doesn't even...]

[stillbetter]

I hesitate to call them a weapon.

[which is why she... chose them. really.]

[doubleoohbaby]

They may well become just that. Or perhaps a defensive item instead. Suppose it depends what you want from them.

[stillbetter]

What I want from them?

[wha]

[doubleoohbaby]

Am I to assume you're not entirely understanding of what this sentient weaponry is all about? [It's okay, neither is he.]

[stillbetter]

I can't say I've ever seen any - proof of sentient weaponry in my life.
