[ A day after Nonah's events reminds Karen she needs to check in on Kristoff. It's been too long since she's seen his face around and she's starting to grow worried he was deadly serious about living it up as a caveman. ]

Hey, Kristoff? It's Karen.

Should've done this sooner, but anyway... Let me know if everything's alright.

return call!

[malodorous]

[ Probably a couple of days late. And he's not saying anything immediately because, let's be real, he doesn't have phone etiquette down. ]

[boobwindow]

[ KRISTOFF...

She answers after checking the ID quickly. Maybe she should have left a dozen messages to get him to return her call faster. ]

Kristoff?

[malodorous]

Yeah.

Hi?

[boobwindow]

Glad to hear you're still alive.

You could have called sooner.

[malodorous]

Oh. I, uh... I didn't think about it, before now.

Or, I guess I didn't think about it until I found your message, but... Yeah. Sorry?

[boobwindow]

Busy life in the mountains?

[malodorous]

Yeah, and... I don't always look at this thing. I forget about it a lot.

Both of those things.

[ back-dated to shortly after this conversation. ]

Hey Kristoff, how do you feel about having another cat in the house?

call back;

[malodorous]

[ Because Kristoff hasn't mastered literacy or tiny smartphone keyboards. ]

John? A cat?

... How mean is it?

[acclimatized]

Hey Kris.

Nooo idea I'm afraid. An acquaintance up in De Chima found it. I wanted to know what you and Mathilda think about it first.

[malodorous]

Well. I don't mind if the cat's fine with it.

... And the kid, too, I guess.

[acclimatized]

How about the dog? Is he good with the other one?

I think she's fine with it. She'll be earning some pocket money if Karen doesn't want to look after it.

[malodorous]

He's alright? I dunno'. They're both kinda weird.

It'll probably work out?

[acclimatized]

Okay, I'll give him a ring and tell him we're all fine with it.

I wouldn't call Karen's cat 'weird', but what do you mean?

voice mail 1/3

[boobwindow]

Hi, it's Karen.

I don't know if you'll get this, but if you ran off toward the mountain again I think we're going to have to have another talk.

voice mail 2/3 | 20 minutes later

[boobwindow]

... And you're not holed up in a mountain again.

Where are you?

voice mail 3/3 | 5 minutes later

[boobwindow]

I'm assuming you really are ported out.

[ An awkward pause. ]

I don't know if these are going through, so if you're back home, Kris... see you around?

[At some point in the last week, your character received a letter in the mail. Feel free to open and read it, throw it away, or respond to it in whatever way you see fit.]

voicemail; 5/8

[bassriff]

Hey, man. It's Marceline. You still up for a jam session? Call me, 'kay?

call back;

[malodorous]

Oh, uh... Right. Hi. It's Kristoff.

You are talking about playing music, right? I can still do that.

[bassriff]

All right! I have a few guitars, so I've got you covered if you wanna try something a little more up to date.

When are you free?

[malodorous]

I work nights, mostly, so... Most days are good. Especially Sundays. Sundays aren't ghost tour days.

[bassriff]

All right, that should work! Sabriel can do weekends, but I haven't talked to Jesse yet.

[malodorous]

Right. Just... Let me know, I guess? Barring some other catastrophe, my schedule doesn't change a whole lot, and taking a day to play music seems fine in my book.
