006 - [Video] Why is it always to late to say goodbye?

[alwaysatthebar]

[It'd been nearly a week since November's last contact and April had started to suspect this was more than a simple, 'not wanting to be found' incident. She had been investigating the frequency rate of disappearances and it would not be against all probability that November would be among the next batch of those who had disappeared. Which is why she had gone to the Hall of the Missing.]

[Trust November to find a way out and leave her behind to clean up his messes. He never meant ill, but it did seem to be a reoccurring theme of late. Even more dissatisfying was the knowledge November was most likely dead. For a second time. He never did do things by halves.]

[Coming out of the hall of the missing, April flicked on the network device and stared calmly into the recorder.]

It would seem that Jack Simon --some of you may have known him as November 11-- has left the city. I will be tendering his belated Note of Resignation to the proper authorities at City Solutions today and will do my best to tidy up any loose ends until a replacement can be found.

Until then, please limit your inquiries except for in cases of emergencies. They won't be handled otherwise.

[Now to determine the best manner to avoid going crazy. Perhaps tomorrow she'd...]

November 11? Interesting name for the guy.

It seemed appropriate at the time. Jack was the one who insisted on the name.

[affection? Perhaps a little bit]

[orangetoughguy]

Sounds like there's a story behind that one.

Re: voice;

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't say that. Jack just didn't like his name and stole the date instead.

He did love his jokes.

[orangetoughguy]

So if his is stolen is yours on loan too?

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

My condolences.

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

Thank-you.

[pause]

I'll be sure to pass those along if he ever returns.

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

I'm Luke Valentine, another who wears white well.

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

[files that away in her memory]

Mr. Valentine. I can see you did know November well. [how well?]

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately no. We were minor acquaintances.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Why hello again.

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

Hello. [pause] How's the violin? Is it working properly now?

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Probably. But not by my hands, I'm afraid. I've never been very interested in taking up the art.

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

That's a shame. You were so convinced the other day that music was your passion.

[100% smirking on the inside]

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

My family was strongly invested in the Arts, so naturally I have a deep affection for it. But I prefer to leave artistic things for those with the talent for it.

[sciencedaughter.livejournal.com]

... is that so. I am- [what is the phrase...] Sorry to hear that.

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

He would be too. Jack's always hated saying goodbye.

[But April doesn't mind. It'd do Jack good to hear them.]

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

I had wondered why he hadn't been at work.

You were friends with him?

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

After a fashion. I was working for him in an unofficial capacity.

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

I see.

Tony Stark. I own City Solutions.

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

[Indeed. He is a little easy to recognize]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Stark. I've heard great things about your company although, of course, the details were kept confidential.

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

Of course. I'm at a disadvantage. You know my name and I don't know yours.

[private voice]

[jiyuna_togabito]

And he did so well snooping around. A shame. I wasn't aware he was an acquaintance of yours.

[private voice] Sorry for the extreme late!

[bill-to-sis.livejournal.com]

No, I don't imagine very many had.

[ooc; Hey just wanted to say no problem at all! And I'm sorry I was away on hiatus this whole time so I couldn't reply! But hope all is well~<3]
