Aqualad - B02.

Please leave a message, and I will return to you as soon as possible

I am from four years, a month, and two and a half weeks from that time. Two months ago, I was brought here on the 18th of February from the year 2015.

[ His voice quiets ]

There are some others here, as well, some from different dates, some form different timelines, and many from different worlds altogether. Be careful, when approaching those you know. They many not be as you think them.

[ artemis's voice snags in her throat for a moment, and she finds it hard to breathe, as though kaldur's words knocked the breath right from her lungs.

twenty-fifteen? how is that... how is that even possible. artemis feels a tightness in her chest and she curls up on her bed, hugging her knees closer to her chest because now more than ever does she feel completely alone in this court and castle. it's a feeling she's used to but had hoped to never feel again after having found her place on the Team.

but she can't let it get to her now, so she takes in another breath to speak. ]

... All right, roger that. [ but then that brings up another thing— ] I should tell you that— [ skjdfhsdf she feels a twinge in her gut again ] —Cheshire's here.

Noted. [ a pause. ] Artemis.

Are you okay.

[ You are my first priority right now, my friend. ]

[ something about that questions snaps a tense line inside of artemis—and she feels a rush of adrenaline burn under her skin. it's not often (if ever) that such a question is asked of her so immediately she is defensive and aggressive, sarcasm lashing at the tip of her tongue. ]

Gee, Kaldur, what do you think? These strange creatures grab me and throw me into a bag with absolutely no warning whatsoever and then drag me into this stupid war that they say they need me for—what's even going on here!? [ she's used to skirmishes and fights, of course, but this is... so far beyond her realm of understanding that she doesn't know where to start. ] You're telling me you're from the future, there's no one here that I know or can talk to—

[ she stops in the middle of her rant, taking in a slow, calming breath, though her words never lose their bite. it's really difficult for her to express that her anger isn't at kaldur for showing compassion and asking after her—it's more than her family, save her mother, ever did—but rather at the situation itself. she's just so used to lashing out at the first target. ]

... I guess that answers your question.

[ He shouldn't, but his lips curl up and he has to smother down his relieved laughter, though the warmth still carries in his voice. ]

I am glad that you are still well enough to be yourself. I have missed you, my friend, and all that has happened in the years that you have not lived yet have only cemented my high regard for you, for us, and the team we made together.

[ He waits, then, before continuing, more seriously. ]

If you ever wish to talk, Artemis, I am here.
