[Video feed gives way to a mostly dark room. A lamp in the far corner is dim, implying the bulb is likely on its last 'limbs'. Caim sits at his desk, so like the one he had before. Almost everything is the same, except the layout is a little different and the wall once filled with a mural in the making - later covered in black - is no longer there.

Idly the prince wonders what might have come of his room.

He makes no initial movements, simply sits and stares at his monitor. He seems more like a silhouette in those moments, but eventually his hands move. A bracelet on his left wrist makes a very soft sound as it meets his desk.]

Divine providence. It delights me not.

[It seems as good a greeting as any.]

[This isn't a happy sight for Phoenix at all. So much in fact that he responds through text to keep this as formal as possible.]

Your sister Furiae was here looking for you.

[It's a good thing Caim doesn't actually despise Phoenix. He simply has thought him a quaint man.]

I did hear such recently. I imagine we will find our paths crossing. Soon.

[When he looks less like a bum who needs a shave.]

Your sister seemed like a nice woman.

I couldn't bear to tell her what you had done. I can only hope that you'll be honest with her.

Mister Wright, you may be most displeased to find that my younger sister knows me far better than anyone else. She has seen me at my worst and at my best. I doubt very much that anything you could tell her would faze her.

She has other things on her mind, I am certain.

[thewrightidea]

I'm going to be frank with you: I'm not happy that you have returned to this Academy. I'm extremely unhappy that you're not incarcerated for your crimes.

Your presence here is a danger to all of us.

It disturbs me that your sister has allegedly seen you "at your worst" and would not be fazed by the fact that you murdered several innocent people. I don't know anything about the land that you came from, but here we follow a set of rules that stipulate that what you've done is one of the worst possible things one could do. I can only hope that Furiae does not and has not followed the example that you've set for her.

[loverofinnocence]

How kind of you to be so direct.

[It's times like these that Caim is not only with gratitude for his behaviour regarding slight diplomacy he refused to use in his prior stay, but that he's also vaguely annoyed that he's choosing these times as of now to be at his best.]

My sister is as gentle as a flower and as soft as one. I can assure you that she has no poor habits aside from constantly living life as a self-sacrificing individual of strength and nobility.

[thewrightidea]

I can only hope that you are being truthful.

But please, now that you know that your sister is okay, it would benefit everyone if you would leave this place.

I imagine if death did not await me in Midgard, I would take my departure. Yet if you came from the world I do, I would find it difficult to believe you would willingly subject yourself to it.

I intend to keep my distance, yet I would also imagine you are not likely to believe anything I say. If you have more insults to fling, then I invite you to do so now.
