Well, that is unfortunate business but it cannot be helped. I hope this...viral message gets contained somehow.

Yes. Has he?

Indeed I have. A year and two months, thus far.

[Well, thankfully that meant Franz hadn't seen the...Midnight broadcasts some time ago. Or at least no one would make mention of that in a first time conversation, would they?]

I've heard of you, as well...I believe you know a Mister Walter Dornez, correct? He said he worked for the Lion's Gate, some time ago.

[A terribly "inverted" text at that.]

[discretion]

Right, we still keep in touch. He's a good kid. You're living together, right? Did you get through the bad weather safely?

[doctor_seward]

[He didn't wish to be rude by asking him if he was Doctor Yumeno's beau...That would've been even more terribly awkward.]

Indeed. He lives with me at the manor, along with my Professor and several other recent additions to our quaint household.

We managed well enough. Thank you for the concern. The manor is old and sturdy, I think. The renovations we did helped to fortify it, at the very least.

But, ah you work for the Lion's Gate for Mister Creed, do you not?

virus text /HITS YOU UP HERE TOO

[whippings]

Received a verbal warning at work for "riding in a trash receptacle, violating professionalism & infection control."

[discretion]

I am Monsieur Creed's personal assistant, yes. However, I am more focused on the NPP than the paperwork and scheduling at Lion's Gate. In fact I am looking for a replacement to help him with the latter, so I can devote myself more fully to the party.

Come get her ASAP. She's "people bowling," which is just her rolling into random groups of people. People look pissed.

virus text /<3

[doctor_seward]

Pardon, but I believe your phone has been infected with a virus. You sent me a rather peculiar message about riding trash bins just now.

[doctor_seward]

I wasn't fully aware of that.

You've a high-minded goal in the realm of politics then.

[text; NV Virus]

[doctor_seward]

Come get who, exactly?

[text; NV Virus]

[notadisneygirl]

I'm sorry? What are you talking about?

[text; NV Virus]

[doctor_seward]

You sent me something pertaining to "people bowling", a little while ago. I think it was by mistake.

[discretion]

Perhaps. Back in Paris, I was a Baron and studying to become a diplomat. If these skills can be of use to the newcomers here, it's my duty to use them.

I can't decide who is the bigger alcoholic: you for opening that bottle of wine just now or me for hearing it in the other room over the air conditioner

[text | nv virus]

[doctor_seward]

Ah...That rather does beg the question, doesn't it?

[text | nv virus]

[namiwasheretoo]

And... that question is?

Let me guess... you got a random text from a stranger?

[whippings]

[So. Many. Text. Messages. Today.

... But that could possibly explain it.]

I sent no such thing.

[But now the seed of doubt has been planted, she finally goes through her inbox to check. Whoops.]

[doctor_seward]

...Not intentionally, I'd imagine. It might be a good idea to check out your NV's security programming. I hear that is what seems to be causing the problem.

[text | nv virus]

[doctor_seward]

Apparently the debate as to which one of us is an alcoholic...

Indeed I rather did.

[text | nv virus]

[namiwasheretoo]

Oh, well that's good to know. It's better then some I am hearing. Seems to be going around.

So which one of us is the alcoholic?

[text | nv virus]

[doctor_seward]

Well, I don't even know you. That's not something I could deduce through an impersonal device.

[text; NV Virus]

[notadisneygirl]

I don't think it was by mistake. I mean, it wasn't on purpose! There's that NV virus going around, I think I got it. And now... you have it too.

[text; NV Virus]

[doctor_seward]

Oh! Well, not to worry. I hardly think that that is your fault. This is Doctor Seward speaking, by the way. My device already seemed to be receiving quite a number of...Strange things, as well as sending them out.

[text; NV Virus]

[notadisneygirl]

Nice to meet you, Doctor. I wish this was under better circumstances, though. I'm Snow Blancheur, since I don't think the NV always sends out the name to other people. You're not the first one I've 'contacted' by text.

[text; NV Virus]

[doctor_seward]

Miss Blancheur, the pleasure is mine. That is understandable, given if things like these happen you don't know the recipients, and you should be able to have your privacy respected.

At any rate, it wasn't a bother. I simply wished to make certain that there wasn't something occurring that I needed knowledge of, or if someone was in trouble...Glad to know the situation does not involve anything dangerous.

[whippings]

How long has this been going on for?
