[Viktor .86] Well well, if it isn’t Lucy. Or should I say Wren, the non-descript.
[Lucille .79] Har har, Zag. I’ll have you know I’ve since made myself descript, so you can eat those words.
[Viktor .92] Oho! Well then, will I see you this evening in the realms? I still need to show you around.
[Lucille .88] Absolutely.
[Viktor .97] Excellent!
[Camera feed: storefront]
[Lucille: examine shelves]
[Lucille .91] So how have things been going for you lately?
[Viktor .89] Oh, well enough. Business has been a bit slow, and the fancy new security system keeps dead-naming me, but other than that I can’t really complain.
[Lucille .76] Aw, that’s terrible! Isn’t there some way to fix that?
[Viktor .82] You’d think so, but so far that’s a negative. It’s “auto-detecting” my identity from my birth certificate and won’t let me manually input something unless I can prove it’s reading the certificate wrong. There’s no option for “not my current name.”
[Lucille .89] Damn, that’s terrible.
[Viktor .91] Eh, it is what it is.
[Viktor .79] But enough about me, how have you been lately?
[Lucille .92] Pretty well. The security camera outside my house has been staring at me a lot lately, but some workman came by and fixed it just earlier. Seems to be behaving normally now.
[Viktor .89] I swear, those things get creepier each passing day.
[Lucille .73] Yeah, but what’re you gonna do.
[Viktor .92] Yeah, yeah.
[Viktor .87] So how’s your mom? Still annoyed at you for coming here?
[Lucille .75] Yeah, but she’s not acting on it. I think she’s trying to exert her last feeble grasps of control before I leave the house for good.
[Viktor .92] Heh, maybe so. Still, I wouldn’t try her too much.
[Lucille .87] Yeah, you’re probably right. Speaking of which, I should head back lest she notice I’ve been gone too long.
[Viktor .98] Then depart, posthaste! And I shall see you this evening, within strange realms.
[Lucille .85] Heh, definitely. See ya.
[Camera feed: storefront]
[Lucille: move towards front door]
[Viktor .88] See ya.
[Front door open]
