Video -- More of a Hawke, Really
[The video opens to what appears to be a rather ordinary man - dark hair, square jaw, and a smudge of something red over his nose. His face is too close to the screen, brow furrowed in concentration. It quickly melds into surprise, then disbelief - and maybe even a hint of amusement.]
And here I was, hoping I'd just landed in the Fade somehow.
[His tone is very light, and he sighs, pulling back from the phone enough that he inadvertently allows the camera to focus better on him.]
I'll have to admit to being at something of a loss. Attempts on my life usually don't come with instruction manuals. It's an interesting change, but I do prefer things a little more straightforward!
Oh. And if you are trying to kill me? I have to admit my head feels a little foggy and I appear to be unarmed, so it's probably a good time. We can talk about this whole thing, maybe get some drinks while you ramble on about your plan?
[There's a beat, Hawke looking around him, head tilted as if listening for an ambush. He shrugs.]
It was worth a try.

[ Hmm. Maybe this guy could get away with that, then?
... Why is he contemplating this. ]
Look, I ain't gonna tell you what to do. Just, try not to get arrested?

[He's the picture of innocence, isn't he?]
Oh, I've got plenty of experience with avoiding that. I wouldn't worry about it.

Take care of yourself.
Re: [ Video ]
I appreciate the concern.
