[details]

Well. That was certainly rousing, wasn't it? One can never really quite know what to expect. On the other hand, at least some of the bigger picture is finally known. [There was a bit of a pause as he took a sip from a cup of coffee.] I do hope that everyone is well.

Perhaps now there will be a bit of a calm since those do tend to be nice before the next big storm.

[he pats it down to make sure it's back in place]

Oh, nothing important.

[defyantigravity.livejournal.com]

[That only makes him wonder more.] Of course. My apologies for probably being so intrusive with asking.

But are you absolutely sure?

[vodkas]

[He moves his hand away to show that there... is no pocket there.]

See? Nothing.

[...clearly Russia learned sorcery.] Of course. Must have simply been a mistaken on my behalf. My apologies.

[vodkas]

[Clearly.]

Apology accepted. [And with that, they can switch topics. Russia usually doesn't like talking about himself so much without finding out something about the person he's talking to, so...] Now, who are you?

[defyantigravity.livejournal.com]

[A change in topic worked well for him. If Russia hadn't done so, he would have. though it might not have been to himself.] My apologies. I'm Arthur. I can't quite say that there's much of anything interesting about me, however. I'm simply a consultant by trade.

[Or something like that, anyway.]

[vodkas]

Oh, that is boring. [Hey, at least he's honest.] Who do you consult?
