It's what people hear when they try to call you but can't reach you, silly. I told you about it the first time I called you, and you said someone gave you instructions.
[ if she had a free hand right now, she'd call him to have him hear it tbh ]
Caroline told me how to set it up. I don't really remember what she said anymore though.
[ But he does go a little quiet now. Caroline was actually one of his first friends here, after all, and disappeared pretty quickly. He just.......... hasn't ever spoken about it. Of course :) ]
[ She really was friendly. :( He could add more on though, but instead he chooses not to talk about it. Caroline actually saved his life when he took one of the potions left on the table, she didn't have to as the door opened anyway, but she did. And just. She was special. She understood, that's why it was harder for her to go and why he just never talked about it. Even now he isn't going into details, just gives her a half smile. ]
[ They probably have! He immediately heads for the elevator, letting the button press itself in so he doesn't have to let go of her or the parts he's holding. ]
[ dskjgndsg His arm definitely shakes and he gives her a confused look... which in his case is at least a half smile as he lets a tiny laugh bubble up. ]
[ Athena... he might be mute, but he isn't deaf. Merlin just closes the door behind him, and feels for Shigeru in the apartment by sending out a telepathic message. Nothing comes back though, so quietly he says: ] He's either sleeping already or out.
Come on. [ That done, he makes a beeline for his room, opening the door and stepping inside. He drops the blankets to the side and moves to his wardrobe. At the bottom is the hat, probably a little dusty by now. ]

A few people I knew have gone home by now, that's all. I was thinking about it.
