[It seems someone has decided to change his voicemail following graduation. Hes trying so hard to sound professional, business like, but Hanna's usual enthusiasm bleeds through easily.]

You have reached the mailbox of Hanna Cross. If you don't have an appointment, my secretary will follow up with a return message shortly. [a short pause.] meaning me. I'll get back to you, don't worry.

And if this is an emergency what are you doing on the phone? Cardio is your friend. byyyye!

I was going to say, who are you and what did you do with my Warden, but that makes more sense.

[He is curious though, really.] What can your friendly, neighborhood dealer do for you, then?

[skitter]

Yeah, no, I'm the DD for life. But if someone was used to, say, crack. Could you magic up something that would feel the same, but be easy to shut down with no after effects?

[falkeditupagain]

[Well that wasn't the substance he was expecting, blinking down at the camera.]

I mean, I made Worth Cocaine all the time. Crack isn't a much different spell, but sure. Though I should point out that I've not been spreading around the fact that I can do more than a weed high. I feel like that could get a little uncomfortable real quick.

But, it does come with a nix. You just really want to emphasize that this spell is a one at a time kind of thing. It does not stack, it just hurts, and I can't nix an overdose of magic. It won't kill anyone, to be clear, it just really fucking sucks.

[skitter]

You okay with me telling my inmate, or can I middle-man this? Though your magic is a bit unique.

[falkeditupagain]

Oh...uh, sure! He can come right to me, I don't mind. I can just leave him a sticky note for a hit if he wants, which ever is convenient for the both of you?

[skitter]

[There's a short, thinky pause.]

Can you make it so it has a ramp-up period? Three to five minutes maybe? So I have time to tune out.

[falkeditupagain]

I think I can do that.

Duration length is variable too. Plus the nix, in case of emergencies. I have a few of those laying around usually anyways in case some shit happens on a lazy afternoon.

[His Inmate does not make 'having a chill evening' easy without an emergency exit from stonerville.]

[skitter]

Admiral has one hell of a sense of humor, assigning a spider with a habit to me. Angel's great, I can already tell, but hell.

... That wasn't intentional.

[falkeditupagain]

Oh, I hear you. Giving me a cat who fucking hates me and took 'burn the witch' to heart really hasn't made it any easier on me either.

I'll see if I can buddy up with him. He seems nice enough. You looking to make sure he's only using when you're around for safety or free-ranging okay?

[skitter]

Free-ranging is fine. I'm not his D.A.R.E. officer.

[falkeditupagain]

Cool, just figured I'd ask in case he hits me up for extras.

I don't mind. It's a hell of a lot more safe than the real thing anyways.

[skitter]

That's my thinking.

I'll just, ah, suggest that he use it in other people's cabins.

[falkeditupagain]

That's fair. If you think he needs a babysitter I don't mind though, really.

It isn't like I'm not used to it. Besides, he seems less of a shit than Worth and he'd really not all that bad once you get to know him.

[skitter]

If I did drugs, you're who I'd want to babysit me. But whatever he needs is up to him.

[falkeditupagain]

Well thank you, TK, that's sweet of you. You know, most people don't look at me and think 'good babysitter', but I can be when given the chance.

I don't see you breaking your straight edge streak any time soon though, so. You'll have to take my word for it.

[skitter]

Happy to. I like my neurons in their usual patterns.

[falkeditupagain]

And I like mine slowing to a crawl. Or at least that's what it feels like they're doing. Did you ever see those 'your brain on drugs' commercials? I always thought the deflated person one actually looked like it'd be super comfy for your back...

[skitter]

Mm, no thanks. And I don't even want to know what would happen to the swarm. Or it might just tweak my power level.

[falkeditupagain]

Yeah, that might be a little odd...your brain on drugs, also a bunch of spiders and a thousand bees.

Not as fun.

[skitter]

[A muffled giggle.]

Wow, a thousand.

[falkeditupagain]

...Is that too many? Or not enough?

[skitter]

Bees alone, I have approximately two million on board. It's easy to ramp a hive up to three, four hundred thousand.

[falkeditupagain]

Oh shit- That's a lot of fucking bees.

[skitter]

Bees are great.

[falkeditupagain]

I mean, yes, they are. Just, that's so many. How long do bees live anyways?
