[ There were only so many things that could cause issues and the already present irritation in his voice showed that he was not happy about whatever he was about to be told. ]
Mister Arc? [ Well, this was an usual turn of events. ] It's kind of you to consider my reaction but it's my job to hear concerns. Whatever you have to say, I --
[ Huh. He furrowed his eyebrows briefly, though that was more because he was trying to figure out why Jaune had something to say rather that what it was. Their partnership with Grell was still new but he very much doubted that he would be genuinely concerned by anything he could say about her. Still, he had to at least look like he was somewhat conflicted. ]
Mister Strider, I wanted to thank you for the card you sent. It was very thoughtful. I've been so busy that I hadn't put much thought into the holiday. I guess I owe you one now, don't I?
I've realized that since I've been with Ed, I haven't made much of an effort to know one of his friends. I want to fix that, so I found this movie I thought you'd like.
That's a very thoughtful sentiment. I appreciate it. You'll have to tell me why you're recommending this film in particular, however. I'm not well versed in animated features.
[ It had felt like a lot longer than six minutes. Reaching Ed as soon as it was all over had unfortunately not been possible despite his prior plan to do just that, so pacing and waiting was all he had been able to do. He hadn't doubted Ed would win. But had he still worried? Yes. Of course he did. As soon as he saw that it was Ed calling him, he fumbled with the device and put it to his ear as quickly as he could. ] Ed? Are you --
[ West exit. Something important. His legs were already moving before he even fully processed that that was what he needed to do. The pause was unsettling. What he said afterward was also unsettling. He sounded slightly panicked. ] What? How bad is it? Do you need a doctor? I -- wait. Just wait and don't move. [ And since Ed could be stubborn at times... ] I mean it.

Not yet. My answer may change if you ask me again an hour from now. The temperature control in this building needs severe attention. You're faring better, I'm guessing?
bruh so ok at home we have this fucking sweet ass game called club penguin right and wed all play it even though like jade would never be on at the same god damn time because she lived in the actual middle of nowhere on a fucking volcanic island she somehow had all the coins in existence and like the hottest penguin shit in her igloo meanwhile johns penguin looked like his mentally challenged flippers built the walls out of yellow snow asshole never wanted to sign in because he just got the newest nintendo or whatever who the fuck has time to play a console game anyway so like i would get up early as fuck so i can get the head start on all that waddle action before the daily beatdowns bomb red penguin that literally every penguin babe would get their rocks off to and then bring those rocks to me as a method of wooing my sexy ass i was rolling in the coins from the night before becoming a surfing fucking master i was ready to go on a shopping spread and deck the beak out to the nines full my upgraded ice fortress with high end living so im wandering around the world and notice everythings god damn empty its a ghost town and im thinking i somehow ended up at the wrong pole before i dismiss it as it being on account of it being buttfuck am in the morning and no one is as dedicated of a penguin as me im a fucking emperor penguin and i need to be here for my people set good impressions i waddle off to the clothes shop and pimp myself out with a hoodie and some bling treat yoself to a new pet puffle bro new little companion to share my rich fulfilling fish eating life with anyway so we gotta feed it so i click go to igloo but fucking the thing wont let me go it keeps saying its full but im living in the MANSIONS of igloos right now so theres no way its full up the occupancy is just me and my new cat puffle whatever it was a cat in my head i named it kitty just this same message over and over about it being full up i keep clicking at it long enough to form a rhythm and develop like four penguin raps about igloos until the loading animation finally pops up and lets me in my house so like apparently while i was out doing my thang some douchebag decided to throw a fucking houseparty in my gloo ninja party at striders so theres all these waddling fucks in my house and you know what theyre talking about??? steve fucking irwin and his god damn stingray what the FUCK
[ yeah he's just reading a riddle he just posted at the network directly to you, bitch ]
You come to a stop, in your newly purchased sports car, in front of a bus stop with four people who desperately need any transportation a soul can give them to drop them to their desired destinations. The problem is, the next bus scheduled to pass by will not be until the morning. It's also pouring rain.
The first person there is a heavily pregnant woman who looks as if she is in excruciating pain and on the verge of giving birth. She's pleading to be sent to any hospital or to at least be given assistance should she end up having to deliver on the sidewalk. Not an ideal situation.
The second person is a very young and very lost child crying and screaming at high volumes because they wandered away from their home. The child doesn't know where their home address is, but knows the full name of their parents.
Next to them is a surgeon. This doctor has with him his briefcase that contains all of his medical tools. He impatiently shares the time on his watch - drawing far too close for comfort. He needs to go to his hospital as soon as possible in order to perform a critical surgery.
The final person is someone who just wants to go home, but it so happens that you them. To you, that person is a dear close friend and the love of your life. Your desired future spouse. You adore this person. They're probably highly intelligent. Handsome. Trustworthy. It's been a long time since you have both seen each other. You've wanted to reconnect and rebuild your relationship since your last meeting. You can't find a better opportunity to do that. If you don't take it, the chances are that you may not have that opportunity again.
Now! Keep in mind that the only helpful tool you can use in this situation is your leased highly attractive sports car in what you consider a striking color. It has the driver's seat, a single empty passenger seat and nothing else. It is poorly designed in that it doesn't have a functioning trunk for a human body. There are no communication devices on any of you and none within reach. The bus stop is located away from any public facilities and residences.
There is no one else on the road to help them but you. What do you dooooo ~ ♫ ..?
Yes? [ Initially he looks to be writing something down, but once he glances up an eyebrow piques in curiosity. It's not every day he's directly contacted by someone so... unusual. He's got a polite smile in place quickly enough, though. ] You've heard correctly. You're interested, I assume?

[Everything from his concerned frown, to the inflection in his voice indicates sincerity.]
But as a friend, I need to warn you to be careful around Grell.

And for what reason do I need to be careful?

Oswald, could you come to the west exit? We should leave since I'm carrying something important.
[ A brief pause. ]
Also, I may be bleeding out. Most of this isn't mine. But.

and wed all play it
even though like jade would never be on at the same god damn time because she lived in the actual middle of nowhere on a fucking volcanic island
she somehow had all the coins in existence
and like the hottest penguin shit in her igloo
meanwhile johns penguin looked like his mentally challenged flippers built the walls out of yellow snow
asshole never wanted to sign in
because he just got the newest nintendo or whatever
who the fuck has time to play a console game
anyway so like
i would get up early as fuck so i can get the head start on all that waddle action before the daily beatdowns
bomb red penguin that literally every penguin babe would get their rocks off to and then bring those rocks to me as a method of wooing my sexy ass
i was rolling in the coins from the night before becoming a surfing fucking master
i was ready to go on a shopping spread and deck the beak out to the nines
full my upgraded ice fortress with high end living
so im wandering around the world and notice everythings god damn empty
its a ghost town and im thinking i somehow ended up at the wrong pole before i dismiss it as it being on account of it being buttfuck am in the morning and no one is as dedicated of a penguin as me
im a fucking emperor penguin and i need to be here for my people
set good impressions
i waddle off to the clothes shop and pimp myself out with a hoodie and some bling
treat yoself to a new pet puffle bro
new little companion to share my rich fulfilling fish eating life with
anyway so we gotta feed it so i click go to igloo
but fucking
the thing wont let me go
it keeps saying its full
but im living in the MANSIONS of igloos right now so theres no way its full up
the occupancy is just me and my new cat
puffle
whatever
it was a cat in my head i named it kitty
just this same message over and over about it being full up
i keep clicking at it long enough to form a rhythm and develop like four penguin raps about igloos
until
the loading animation finally pops up and lets me in my house
so like apparently while i was out doing my thang
some douchebag decided to throw a fucking houseparty in my gloo
ninja party at striders
so theres all these waddling fucks in my house
and you know what theyre talking about???
steve fucking irwin and his god damn stingray
what the FUCK
