*There's nothing but a long silence after the ringing stops. If the caller's been looking at their screen, there are plain black-and-white letters on display:*

Please leave a message after the beep.

dead_black_eyes: "Secret Agent Man" (They sentenced me to 20 years of boredom)
From: [personal profile] dead_black_eyes
[He has to glance away for a second, but even though he tries earnestly, there's no real way to hide how conflicted he is about it. He brushes aside his hair to indicate a small, new tattoo, a delicate stem with dark green leaves just under his ear.]

Differentiation isn't the problem, so much. I just worry about what he'll do the world, given the chance. I'd rather I took the damage, but... I recognize that the world might be better at taking care of itself.

dead_black_eyes: "Hiding Tonight" (I'm quite alright hiding today)
From: [personal profile] dead_black_eyes
[Lazarus' dark eyes stare at the lines and riddles on Cesar's face; he's attentive and he cares, but Cesar's correct in assuming that he's incapable of comprehending much of what he's seeing. It's a type of innocence, a shield, and a handicap; it gives Cesar an edge for when he needs to hide from the intense focus that catches nearly everything else.]

...you're right, of course. I'll let him go, and update security again. Everyone I know will be made aware of his deeds and tendencies so they can protect themselves accordingly.

dead_black_eyes: "Secret Agent Man" (I'm gonna change you like a remix)
From: [personal profile] dead_black_eyes
[That startles a laugh out of Lazarus.]

Good to know I'm not alone, I suppose. They bring out the worst in some pretty decent men, don't they?

dead_black_eyes: "Poison" (I wanna love you but I better not touch)
From: [personal profile] dead_black_eyes
"Thank you. I would like that. He really can't have gotten far, but I guess now the point is to let that happen."

He picks himself up, going to the sink and bending over to put his face under the tap. He's still groggy and thinks that drinking some water will help.

dead_black_eyes: "Everybody's Changing" (I don't see how you can)
From: [personal profile] dead_black_eyes
[Lazarus casts his gaze downward for a second following Cesar's suggestion.]

I take it you mean that we should let him believe that he's outfoxing us and escaping, rather than inform him he's being released?

dead_black_eyes: "Secret Agent Man" (Don't you know I suffer?)
From: [personal profile] dead_black_eyes
[Lazarus considers it, then nods firmly.]

We'll do that then. If you could help me get him in a chair, we could tie him up and leave one of the major knots intentionally flawed. He'll be gone before morning.

There's one in the service closet down the hall. Fortunately, it's on the way to where I think he collapsed.

[Lazarus starts that way, walking straighter and with better purpose as he continues to make his way out of the drugged haze.]
