[Actually, he could, but it's not until the next day that he manages to ring her.
Between her and Leo, Kaz is less worried about Jill worrying about him. But then, his best friends worry about him regardless. So have Karlo Antonio calling you at a possibly ungodly hour.]
[And there's the call she was waiting for. She wasn't too worried, really: she knows you're in good hands. What she's actually concerned about is how you're personally doing. Talking helps her get a read of that.]
Hey.
[That greeting is bright and cheerful, typical of Jill. She's still up, of course: the Pride just wrapped up a small investigation.]
[He gets quiet. This is Nico, Jill. Of all the things in this world, he can't handle seeing Nico sad.]
I'm a goner when it comes to him, Jill. I don't think I can do a second life without him, so... Yeah, I'm gonna see him... and I'm gonna ask him to marry me.

So there's probably a line of people waiting to either hug me, punch me or kill me... Again.
[His cheek still stings a little.]
Just so you know, Yulia is just as deadly sans knives. Slapped the living daylights out of me as soon as I came back.

Don't worry. I'll patiently wait for my turn to hug you really tight.
no subject
I wouldn't miss that for the world.
no subject
I'm sure you can if, let's say, it was a toss-up between me and Nico.
no subject
[Yep, wibbly now. He hasn't contacted his boyfriend.]
no subject
Have you... contacted him yet?
no subject
[That wibbly tone in his voice is very suggestive, Jill, of the fact that he has no idea how to face the man he loves after dying and coming back.]
no subject
[She's saying it in that gentle suggestion kind of tone that is pretty much her version of an order.]
no subject
[Well, there's something in tone, Jill. Something wistful, because he nearly lost his life.]
no subject
[It shouldn't be hard. Japan and the Philippines aren't far from each other, and Falner's got access points.]

no subject
You do that, Kaz, and tell me all about it later.
[Oh!]
And make sure to invite me to your wedding!
no subject
You at my wedding is a given. Same goes for Mia, and Leo... And the rest of the Pride.
[He's quiet for a second, before you hear him move.]
I'm gonna let you go now. See you back at home, okay? Give my love to the rest of the Pride, and Mia.

[Know that she loves you very, very much. ♥]
