[Right off, what will be remarkable is that China has enabled video; those familiar with her network habits will probably recall she doesn't usually.]

[The second remarkable thing is the small fluffball she's holding cradled to her chest. It's a rabbit. It's small, it's white, it's adorable, and it's got a collar around its neck with a soul gem. Which means yes, the small animal China is cuddling is none other than Erskine Ravel.]

[She's stroking the bunny very nicely.]

I wonder. Wasn't some fine gentleman giving us updates on the weather, occasionally?

I find I miss his gardening tips.

[She sounds and looks entirely earnest, blue eyes wide, face innocent, and she pauses only a moment to scratch behind the bunny's ears very delicately.]

And some sort of a forecast would be useful, I think, as things turn cooler.

[This is completely and totally the only reason she's made this post. Really.]

How convenient.

I could name several men who would not be nearly so accommodating. It's enough to make one rethink people in general.

[Still teasing. Definitely amused at everything.]

Though Erskine really is approaching that level, at the moment.

I have been informed by those in the know that they are difficult to find that way. Although, I have to say, odder things HAVE actually made me re-think people, so perhaps you have the right way of if too [There is a little bit of a smirk right there, teasing too.]

Hmm I do see where those qualifications ARE currently met.

[She laughs. Yes, indeed.]

It's just a shame I'll have to give him back, eventually.

[So she will make the most of petting the rabbit while she has him, and she suits her actions to that, rubbing gently over the space between his ears.]

I suppose devising a way to keep him in such form WOULD be unfair. [The glint in his eye says that's clearly a joke, at least, despite the fact it may sound a little suspect, given his tone makes it kind of hard to tell sometimes.]

At least you can make the most of just now, no?

[inkulcation]

So it would. Such a pity.

[A light sigh.]

Indeed, I shall simply make what I can of it while I have him.

[This seems like one of those moments when Enjolras wonders if she was telling the truth about pets who are useful before. He sort of somewhat is starting to doubt it. A little.]

I think that DOES seem well advised.

[Hush. Erskine is plenty useful. He's helping her bother Shudder. And anyone suggesting she genuinely likes a little fluffball in her life had best bite their tongue.]

[She favors him with an enigmatic little smile, and nothing more.]

[solo_patria]

[So much like the time Camille helped Enjolras and Eponine bother Marius. Useful indeed. He could see that, he supposes. For now, he's smiling again, moving to shut off the device.]

I suppose I ought to leave you to it then. Do enjoy!
