No. 46 [video]

[not that he wants to show the state he's in, but he knows people will ask if they hear his raspy voice. The comm is tilted at an odd angle in a dim room, but it's very obviously the hospital and Alastair is very obviously in a bad state. He's holding the comm in his good hand because his entire left shoulder and arm are bound up in casts. Still has a black eye and visible (though healing) cuts and bruises. The Major's vamps did a number on him. He speaks very quietly, tiredly]

So. Guess you gotta have friends to get rescued around here.

No, I guess that's not totally right. Somebody brought me to the hospital, so...if it was one of you...thanks, I guess. Did...did somebody get him? The Major. Did anybody kill that [whoa tears in his eyes] bastard? I've been unconscious for two days, I haven't heard anything.

Can...somebody feed my cats? I don't know when I'm getting out.

[he looks away from the comm at the rest, it's hard to say]

S-shockwave? I can't type up encryptions right now but...I need to tell you something.

[somebody let the Major's taunting get to him. Deeply]

Anders. [he's a little hazy but he'll remember] I'm Alastair.

I gotta do something. They're all I have left...I owe you for taking care of them.

Tell you what, you can pitch in some more cat stuff when you're out. Litter, food, whatever. We'll call it even. You can find me at the clinic -- I'm doing a little work there, from time to time.

[Thanks to Andromeda, who wasn't averse to hiring mages.]

[hackeralastair]

Yeah. I can do that. I will.

Thanks.

[birdhousesoul]

Think nothing of it. I'll give you a shout if I can't find them.

[Of course, he'll be able to find them, because with his newly updated powers, all cats adore Anders. They'll come flocking to him as though he were made of tuna. In a day or two, expect some snapshots of happy cats to be texted to your communicator, Alastair.

Possibly lying next to a piece of paper on which has been lettered GET WELL SOON!]

[oh god he will legit cry. Guess if he gets ported out he knows who he's leaving the kitties to]

Aome's a little bitchy to people she doesn't know. She's a Siamese, I guess that's what they do. Pelor loves everybody though.
