[ PRIVATE to NICK FURY and BOBBI MORSE ]

Hector Peck might be a dead end. I don't think he's involved at all with Vulcanus or that New Vesuvius city. He's just an editor for a newspaper here and keeps himself busy with that. Nothing out of the ordinary with his schedule or work.

[ /end private ]


[ When Gil speaks up, he sounds as if he's slightly congested. ]

I believe Raven has been ported out. If she had any previous or future engagements to attend to I'm sorry, but I don't think she'll be showing up. I haven't heard from or seen her around the house since before some of us were ported to New Vesuvius.

I'm not sure what to do yet about her belongings. It seems too soon to pack them away somewhere so they aren't lying around the place, doesn't it? A bit rude, too... [ He sighs. It's hard to finish cleaning the place when he's caught in a tiny dilemma like this!! ]

It's always going to be impossible to predict how long before people return. [ A beat. ] If they do.

[ Followed by another pause, as if he may add something to that thought. ]

Ah, never mind.

[ He pauses. ]

Everyone was really ported out? Even Electro?

[aggressiveapathy]

He takes weekends off. Sometimes. I'm alone now.

[invoking]

And he refused to get a job... [ A sigh. ] He'll be back by Monday, I presume?

[aggressiveapathy]

Mm.

[invoking]

You should have a word with him when he's back.

[aggressiveapathy]

Yeah. I'll have him call you.

After the sex.

[invoking]

The...

[invoking]

[ Why his life. ]

3/3

[invoking]

You don't have to give me the details!!

[aggressiveapathy]

What. I didn't even tell you how it'll be in the kitchen.

[invoking]

I SAID I DON'T WANT TO KNOW!

[aggressiveapathy]

But I'm really good at that.

[invoking]

I don't care!

[aggressiveapathy]

That's not my problem.

[invoking]

T-That's it! I've had enough! April, you... ugh!!

[ He disconnects. ]
