MESSAGES

[kingmakereffect]

If you have something to ask the Kingmaker about over the phone, this is where it goes! The Kingmaker will answer the phone as soon as he's available. There isn't an option to leave a message on his voicemail, but the Kingmaker will take your calls at almost any hour of the day.

Your smartphones will only connect to the Kingmaker. There is no option to dial a number, instead it will connect automatically to his phone.

Comments are screened for privacy; no listening in on each other's private conversations without permission, after all.

Comments

[notjustawriter]

So you were just fuckin' with us?

[kingmakereffect]

Maybe, maybe not. Good luck figuring it out.

[notjustawriter]

As charming as ever. You'd really get along with someone I know back home.

[kingmakereffect]

Maybe I would if your world hadn't ended.

[captainobnoxious]

It'd be reaaaally helpful if you would. And if that locket belongs to someone you know. Or knew. Like your friend?

[Hence: The previous question if she could ask about his friend yet.]

[notjustawriter]

So you keep saying.

It doesn't really matter, sentiment's the same either way.

[kingmakereffect]

Stop asking about him. That has nothing to do with him.

I'm not telling you anything else about those. Do you have anything else to say?

[jeez km, locate your chill]

[kingmakereffect]

Anything else?

[notjustawriter]

Nothing much.

Just hopin' our host didn't fall asleep at the computer.

[captainobnoxious]

[fo real bro are they not friends???]

Yeah, chill out. I'm not out for your blood or anything.

[kingmakereffect]

If there's nothing else then I'm hanging up.

[kingmakereffect]

Of course not.

[...he doesn't sound very convinced though.]

Immediately post-surprise klaxons

[goodforsomething]

Hey, you! What the hell was that?

[kingmakereffect]

The klaxons going off, obviously.

[penduli]

[ so those sounds were a thing that happened

also it's fucking easier to call. ...IF IT'S ANY CONSOLATION HE ACTUALLY SOUNDS WORRIED. ]

Is everything... okay?

[kingmakereffect]

[Huh, well that's different.]

Yes it is. I appreciate the concern, but everything's fine.

[goodforsomething]

Yeah, no shit, Sherlock. Why did ya set them off?

[kingmakereffect]

Does that really matter?

[penduli]

[ ...Jeez it's weird to hear him right in his ear. ]

What was with the klaxons going off? They weren't the same as the other times they've sounded. [ Three times, sure, but not quite the same, here. ]

[kingmakereffect]

They weren't, no. Maybe I felt like setting them off.

[goodforsomething]

Does it matter why the death alarm's goin' off? Yeah!

[penduli]

Is this a polite way of telling me it isn't important? Because I can't quite find it in me to believe you did it just because you felt like it, especially with how abrupt the second one was in cutting off. Not to mention none of the blasts matched up; if you were going to just do it because you felt like it, wouldn't it be better to go for multiple short bursts?

Unless you wanted to scare us into thinking someone had taken you up on your offer already. [ Like an asshole or something. ]

[kingmakereffect]

Maybe I just felt like it.

[kingmakereffect]

All valid points, but my reasoning is my own.

...So yes, "it isn't important".

[penduli]

Does it become any more important if I tell you some things I've learned recently about my fellow Survivors?
