Maybe one day. [With the tone of someone who's going 'hm, better not'. He's already crossed too many lines by telling him he's an alien, he's just lucky he didn't go into any specifics.]

I'm afraid you would find it pretty boring, though.

[quantifies]

Perhaps. But I would always listen to a friend.

[Ring, ring, ring...

When he answers, he'll see Red, obviously unharmed, praise Nah Notek, but her face is ashen and eyes worried. Probably a rare sight to see, a frightened Red Plains Rider.]

Video forever

[quantifies]

[Bah gropa.]

The Red Plains Rider, what has happened?

[redplainsrider]

Oh, Croach! [She loses her composure for a moment, so relieved to see he wasn't dead in the city somewhere like her still-recovering psyche is trying to make her believe, that tears come to her eyes. She tries to talk like crying wass so not a thing that was happening.] Are--you're okay, right? You ain't hurt or-or, uhh, yer Nah Notek doesn't seem broke or nothin', right?

[quantifies]

[He blinks at her for a moment, then reaches to pinch his other arm, hard.]

It is functioning correctly. What has caused you to worry?

[redplainsrider]

Well, I, uh... [She tilts her face up as if to think of how to word it, but also as if to suck tears back into her eyeballs.] Somethin's happenin' here an', it's like . . . yanno the last trial of the Heero's K'west? Somethin'--somethin' like that just happened. To me.

[quantifies]

You were granted further Nah Notek?

[redplainsrider]

What? No--! Croach--!

[She might have not sounded so annoyed and upset if Croach wasn't being so obtuse over this particular thing.]

I thought you were dead! I thought I were trapped an' couldn't move an' you were bein' killed an'--an' I'm just glad to see yer stupid face alive!

[quantifies]

[Oh. That is considerably different, and suddenly he understands the emotion he can detect in her voice.

It is clearly fear.]

My Nah Notek continues to function correctly. Do not worry; I would not allow myself to become sick or injured and upset you.

[redplainsrider]

Yeh, you better not. [She calms down a bit with a quick rub to her eyes and nose, getting rid of any incriminating wetness, glowering at him through the screen.] I'd have'ta hog tie ya an' string ya up fer makin' me worry so.

[quantifies]

That would be among the most dangerous situations I have ever faced. I will take care to avoid causing it to occur.

[redplainsrider]

[There's a loud sound off to the side from her hidey hole, and she glances over, then back to Croach, sighing.]

All right, Blue One...got the feelin' I'm gonna be late tonight. But I need ya to be waitin' fer me with yer arms ready fer some high quality huggin, ya got me?

[quantifies]

They shall be the finest hugs I have ever given.

[redplainsrider]

[Smiles, tired by loving and junk.]

Yer the best. See ya soon.
