004 ♒ Audio & Text [Atlantean], Encrypted

[relentlesstide]

[Encrypted Audio to anyone who might have known Mera or anyone on fairly good terms with Arthur, 60%]
[Arthur just sounds... tired. Resigned. He doesn't mince words trying to break the news gently, because he's the one who cares the most anyway.] Mera, my wife, has disappeared from Keeliai.

I need to talk to you.

[Encrypted Text to Kaldur'ahm, Written Atlantean, Hackable]
[Feel free to have your character hack his text, but if they do, all they'll come up with is a bunch of odd symbols and glyphs arranged into what are possibly words. Atlantean is a fairly difficult language to parse through.]

Mera is... gone. There was no trace of her this morning, and I can't find her mental signature. Please come by when you get a chance, Kaldur, we need to talk about something important.

[ooc: He's being an antisocial douchebag, but anybody who knows him is absolutely welcome to just come by his place in the Water Sector. The first audio post I'm leaving pretty open-ended on purpose, feel free to just assume your character was included if they know him or Mera, or know OF them. Also feel free to hack it, it's all good.]

[He smiles, but it doesn't quite reach his eyes as he reaches to squeeze Arthur's shoulder. They might have made a pact and reached an agreement, but it doesn't make the topic any less sad.]

I'll take you up on that offer. [Mostly because he knows Arthur will need someone to pull him out of his Atlantean man-cave. Arthur might have other friends- and even family in this place, but Kal actually enjoys the man's company and he would be sad to see him hide from the world.]

Good luck talking to Kaldur'ahm. [Is all he adds before he takes off.

Using the window because he can, deal with it.]

Good. [Because as much as he and Kal fight and posture at each other back home, here without their usual responsibilities and obligations, none of that has been necessary, and they've actually been able to connect as just men. Friends, even. That, and Kal's moral code are why he actually trusts him to look after Kaldur should anything happen to Arthur himself.]

Doors exist, you know! [He calls out after Kal as he vaults out the window, rolling his eyes.]
