IC Contact - LJ Old

[All Text messages, Emails, Notes, and recorded Holos can be sent to this box. Please post here only through IC means in order to get a hold of Claudio for private or personal reasons. Thank you.]

[This is a connection directly to his NetVice. If he is busy on the other line it will ring four times before going to a phone message. Otherwise it works much like Network recordings and videos]

[If you get his voice mail it will simply say:]

This is Claudio. Leave a message and I'll get back to you if I can.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[He was out man, Out. But Picking up his nv, frowning he pulled a ear piece out, hooked it up and mumbled] Yeah? Everything alright? [cus clearly if she was calling there were problems somewhere...]

[What was he doing out? He doesn't have a life. And why did something have to be wrong for her to call him? The idiot.]

What are you doing Monday around... 1 in the afternoon?

[He does too have... er... a... life.....]

Um... sounds like I've got plans?

[Sure, yeah. She believes you.]

You're going in for a tuxedo fitting.

Um... sorry, I think the line just broke up. Say again?

You. Tuxedo fitting. I know you've probably never even seen one up close, but we're buying you one.

Ah.... [LONG AWKWARD PAUSE] ....... W-why?

Because you're going to be busy Saturday night and it's formal dress.

Um... I'm... sorry, are you sure you got the right number? You were calling Trauma, right?

Claudio Kilgannon, I'm asking you out on a date. Now, are you going to make me look like the idiot who just blew several hundred dollars on nothing, or are you going to say yes?

[S-sorry, Jinx, that startled him to the point that there is a clattering sound, a scrape, A small 'shit, get back here' and ... yeah he had dropped his ear piece in his surprised motions. He put it back in and said]

S-Sorry, sorry, I think I miss part of that. What... is going on?

[Jinx is really trying to play this cool, and he's making it very hard. When she heard the clattering, she took her NV away from her ear a bit and put her hand over her mouth, trying not to laugh. When he finally came back to her, she could only respond after a few deep, calming breaths.]

Do you not read the news?

[Awkward Claudio is Awkward as ever]

Ah... news? i... ah, don't think I did? You mentioned ah... 'hundreds of dollars' just now? Um... is something going on?

It's a dinner. Wine, different courses, secret locations, and it looks pretty suspicious. But if things go well... we'll be around the White Star Hotel... so I was thinking...

Ah... [So stunned right now. W-what?] Wine and courses? Secret locations? Jinx, it's... I mean the White Star is really... ah, what's the word? Posh?

[He's right. It's totally weird to ask him. It would have been weirder to ask someone like Riku or Trauma. So you're it, Invisiboy.]

It's totally not us, I know. But that's what makes it fun, right? Pretending. Acting like we're someone for a night. ...what do you say?

[damn right it was weird. There had to be something more to it then that.]

I... suppose it doesn't sound that bad. Though... a suit? I don't think I look good in those kind of things...

[Oh, there's a lot of things to it, but he won't hear them right now.]

It's the dress code, and you're going to wear something at least in the same league as the gowns I'm looking at. Anyway, have you ever even worn a suit before? How would you know how you look in one?

Yeah but I don't... ah, I mean it's kind of... --I can't use lack of money for an excuse huh? Ah but yeah, I went to a Homecoming at school. That was... suit enough for me.

Claudio. [This is probably the lowest, most even tone she's ever spoken to him in.]

Are you going to tell me yes?

[Shuts up a moment now. And stopped walking about. And is doubtlessly at the theater hiding somewhere in the back and doing nothing now.]

Ah, yes. I mean, just... not used to being asked out or nothing like that and just seems like a lot of money but if you'd like to go and would be happy then I ... I mean... ah, rambling... yeah. Ah, yes, I mean. [OhGoodGod... he took a sharp breath, held it, let it go and sighed] Yes, Jinx. I'd like to accompany you.

[You have to pardon the pause after he's done rambling. That's Jinx muting her communicator to giggle and practically squeal, "Yes!" Then, after clearing her throat, she unmutes the thing and speaks. ...she still sounds excited.]

The limousine will be by between four and five on Saturday, then.

[If he had been drinking something it would have been spit out across the room] Limousine?!

[Okay, she can't stop herself from giggling. Well, she tries to, which only makes her snort a little.]

Only because I couldn't book a helicopter for the evening. Enjoy the lifestyle, Dio. It's good while it lasts.

[damn it she's laughing at him, huh. He flushed a bit on his end of the phone, staring at a wall. What the hell was going on, Life?]

Helico-- Jinx! This is going to cost you a fortune, isn't it?
