To Anselm:


Hi Anselm! It is me in the next room! Ooooh who is? *boop* That was me.
<3 August

The same night, sent to all on the list,

CAM: Its cool i can get ladies on my own thx everybody

Tristan just called out to him from the other room,

Tristan-
"I got this man, thank you for the phones numbers."

Clovis texted,

CLOVIS: AUSMILLER SCHICKT SIE LIEBEN WIE ICH <3 <3 <3 GESUNDHEIT SCHÖN

Darren did not reply. Berthe did,

BERTHE: Gesundheit mein Künstlerchen ouo

Demetri called Anselm. Ring ring.

Anselm-
"Hello, who is 'dhis, I don't know."

Demetri-
"Ah, it is me. Record my name in your new phone how you like. I just thought I should let you know something. Em, Erlauben Sie mir, Ihnen zu erleuchten. Wenn ich darf?"

Anselm-
"Ummm... ja...?"

Demetri-
"When you send a text for many people, there is a danger. It is possible someone will send a reply to everyone on the list. If you want to be discreet about who knows what you are saying to others, then perhaps send the mail to each individually. Senden Sie die Nachricht eine für jeden, aus Gründen der Privatsphäre."

Anselm-
"Oh, on a text letter? It's okay, not too secret message now. But I listen... "

Demetri-
"A telephone text letter.  Mobiltelefon?  Just send one for each, not one for all.  Just some advice, do whatever you will.  Are you feeling better?"

Anselm-
"Okay I'll do it. I'm a little better, my head is closed now, but leg doesn't vork. I get too sad but maybe it's okay."

Demetri-
"Aww. Everyone can feel upset when their body is broken. We are fortunate to be able to heal as well. Well. I've things to do, will be in touch again soon."

Anselm-
"Yes... goodbye. "

<<BEARBEITE>>

Ring Ring! Vitus gets a phone call early in the night, the day after Eli's boat crash.

Vitus-
"Hello?"

Chloë-
"Hi! How are you doing?"

Vitus-
"Very... weird. My arm is much better. Kinda busy..."

Chloë-
"I'm really glad to hear that, you poor guy. Should I call back later?"

Vitus-
"Yeh... Yeah. I have to do some telephone calls, with people I've never met.
Bit of hassle, and... things."

Chloë-
"Call me when you have a chance?"

Vitus-
"Will do. Call me back tomorrow night if I forget."

Chloë-
"Don't work too hard!"

Vitus-
"I'll do my best."

Well past midnight, Ring ring...

Chloë-
"Hi! Not too busy now?"

Vitus-
"Oh yeh, things have just settled down a bit. Eli went out with Darren.
I just have these two... They're kinda quiet."

Chloë-
"Oh, are those the new kids? I haven't met them yet."

Vitus-
"How did you guess? Yeh, it's, erm, Hunter and Jess..ica I guess."

Chloë-
Word gets around I guess, haha. That's funny everyone is moving in with each other.
There's a bunch of us living with that one progenner guy."

<<bearbeite>>


Vitus-
"I don't know who's moving where right now. Eli is definitely moving out,
I don't know about Jason, don't know what I'm going to do with these two...
You're living with a progenitor? Oh, you mean, the other movie kids."

Chloë-
"Oh weird, how come he's moving out? Yeah, I'm still with Wilhelm-- well, not 'with' but--
anyway, yeah, August, Tristan and Cameron. You probably don't know them very well."

Vitus-
"Yeh, that's true. The progenitor, it isn't Vicier is it?"

Chloë-
"That's the other one, huh? No, he's like um, Grauish. Ansel...m? Oh my gosh,
I won't say too much on here, but it's suuuper sad, he got his arm messed up last night
and it made me think of you."

Vitus-
"Aww. Well, my arm is almost normal again. It isn't too sad. I'm a bit surprised,
with the efforts Eli made to get these ones away from a progenitor that your friends
wanted to be with one. What is he like then?"

Chloë-
"Aw, I'm glad you're doing better. I guess he's better off than you because he could kind of,
um, stick it back on? Eh-- anyway, I just met him but he seemed nice. Kind of weird, but I guess
all progenners are? August really likes him."

Vitus-
"Hm. Perhaps he's something like Inka, comes off as a lovable eccentric given the right circumstance?"

Chloë-
"Maybe so, I guess if he does anything scary nobody's noticed yet? I don't know, maybe he's not even weird
and he's just like, Grauish. Wilhelm's kind of weird too, hehe."

Vitus-
"Hehe, that he is... *sigh* What a time. I rather don't know what's best to talk about.
I don't expect you want to hear about the fight with Theodore."

Chloë-
"You think it's okay to talk about on here? I don't mind. Gosh, you heard about last night, right?
Did anybody track him down?

Vitus-
"No reason we can't talk about it if you're OK, though I've hardly had a moment to catch up.
I heard that he was attacked in his home and driven away, and that he... Oh, he came to visit some
of the youths last night. Were you there?"

Chloë-
"I was with the other kids, but he didn't call me for some reason. Oh yeah, like... it was so weird!
We were just gonna watch a movie at that progenner guy's place, when August, Ru and Babette just get like,
mind controlled to go meet with that guy! I stayed behind with Cameron, and I'm super glad I did... oh man."

Vitus-
"He can call vampires like we can call humans? Astonishing. How did that shake out? What happened?"

Chloë-
"Yeah, I don't know how he did it! Well, they came back and everyone was okay but Tristan got
a little messed up, and the progenner guy was like, totally wrecked, everyone had blood on them.
I heard he shot the bad guy's fingers off? But he got away..."

Vitus-
"You're OK then? Sounds frightening."

Chloë-
"Aw, thank you, I'm fine. It really was! I was like, crying on Cameron's shoulder the whole time
everyone was gone. Oh my gosh... I'm really glad he didn't make me go, I would've freaked out so bad."

Vitus-
"Hm... If it's like how we call humans, he can only call those he has a passing familiarity with.
Maybe he saw those three together while spying or some such. Well...
As long as you're well. He's a bit of a madman."

Chloë-
"Aw, you're really sweet. I hope they get him soon, I hate that he was like, trying to
act like he's trying to help us."

Vitus- 
"Yeh, I've heard a bit of that. Hey, now that I think of it. Er, you got that message before the last big one...
the first time the Graus came, with all their faces?"

Chloë-
"Oh yeah, it's a little hard to remember everyone, but I saved their pictures. Do you need a copy?"

Vitus-
"No, but you and your friends should take another look at Marcus. Apparently he's a rather brutal bully.
Wrecked a boat from under Eli and Darren, gave them quite a hike to get to shore."

Chloë-
"Oh no! Is he okay?"

Vitus-
"Just... very upset by it. Had some... reason he felt it was a betrayal of trust, has him
fearing for his life. Eli I mean, Darren not so much."

Chloë-
"Aww, that's terrible! Is that why he's moving out?"

Vitus-
"Yeh, don't worry 'bout it though. I expect it was a random thing. But all the more reason
to be wary around that one."

Chloë-
"I'll let everyone know! Aw, I guess I probably shouldn't go over there if he's upset right now.
Do you think you'd be able to get out of the house sometime?"

Vitus-
"I'm not sure. Well... I will. Just not yet. Why do you ask?"

Chloë-
"Well, I got you somethingggg! Here's a hint, it's-- oh, well, it's not that good of a surprise I guess,
it's just that other book you wanted. But-- I'll get you something else! I dunno, hehe.
Just thought it'd be fun to see you."

Vitus-
"Hm, perhaps, but for now I'm in a sad place. Other people's sadness, but you probably
don't need that right now."

Chloë-
"Oh gosh, you poor guy. Ooh now I feel bad for being all blah blah about my stuff earlier!
Aw, it's like, you're such a good listener that everyone tells you a bunch of sad stuff and
then you're sad and you can't tell anyone that *you're* sad because the only people
you talk to are sad! Aw, that's so sad! Uh, you know what I mean?"

Vitus-
"Heh, no. I'm much better since the last time we talked, and since my arm is improved.
Take care of yourself and your friends, we'll see each other around."

Chloë-
"Okay okay, well, when you're feeling better, I think we need to do something really stupid
and not even slightly sad at all. Or go swimming. Well, that's not sad either but-- whatever.
I'll call you soon and I won't say the S-A-D word even once!"

Vitus-
"Tremendous. Do something frivolous before then and tell me about it."

Chloë-
"I'm sure I will! Take care of yourself. "
