Two questions, possibly related.

One -- how can you tell when someone's been Ported out? I haven't had it happen to me yet, so... I was wondering.

[ He pauses, thinking of how to phrase this next question. ]

Two -- not to alarm anyone, but has anyone seen Matt Murdock lately? He hasn't been coming into work or answering his calls. Once, I could understand, but it's been three days, and... [  Deep, anxious breath. ] I'm a little concerned.

You haven't checked out his place yet?

I was going to after work -- had to pick up the slack since he left...

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

I'm coming with you.

[Pause]

After sundown.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

After sundown?

...wait. You got hit by that, too?!

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

It's a serious problem, Reilly. That I didn't exactly ask for, okay?

So maybe you...

[Does not look happy.]

Maybe you should go without me. Just remember the Black Widow lives there, too. So ask permission before entering.

I didn't mean it like that, dummy. I do know what it's like to change, you know.

[ Soft and sympathetic. ]

Forget Matt for a second. Are you okay?

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

I-I'm not...

I'll be alright. Matt's actually gone. Work on that, I can handle this end.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Matt has people looking for him now.

I think he could wait a while, if you need anything. He's a tough guy.

[Shifts, making the camera move to show more than just her face. Yup, May's all gothed out.]

I'm a big kid, I can wait this out until it gets solved, just like that animal thing a while back. I'm just...going to be really, really hungry until then.

[ So surprised accidentally he switches off the illusion, going full demonface. ]

...There has to be a way to fix this.

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

There isn't a Doc Magus to call up here. There's enough people messed up that someone will find something.

[Eternal hope, even for the damned.]

It's just best if I don't see anyone until then.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Don't.

You're stronger than this. It doesn't matter what you are, some curse isn't going to turn you into a monster.

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

I'm touched, Reilly, really, to hear that from you.

On the other hand, you also look pretty tasty right now, so that might be tainting the feeling.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

You do know what would happen if you bit me, right?

Surely you haven't forgotten what my "blood" is like. If there's anyone you can be trusted around right now...

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

Like I could forget.

There's nothing you can do here, even if you came. So better safe than sorry.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

So, what, I'm supposed to just let you brood alone in the dark?

Stop stealing my shtick, May.

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

You'd rather brood in the dark together? I thought you didn't like family bonding activities.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

I'll make an exception. Just this once.

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

...

[Wavering. She really doesn't like this totally alone thing.]

If I try to bite you, don't say I didn't warn you.

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

As long as you don't blame me for burning you.

[Video, Private]

[secondhandwebs]

You're the one who came in, mister. I think I have the right.

[[Action/log works! Whichever you like]]

[Video, Private]

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Your logic is impeccable, you bloodsucking fiend.

[[ Log okay?? ]]

[secondhandwebs]

[[Yay log!]]
