Oh, oh goodness, is this on? What do you mean this box can take messages? Is it like a mailbox, that's so quaint, do I speak now? Ah. Er, hello, you've reached Jack—

beep!

Oh, good heavens, call me Jack-- can I help you with something?

voice,

O- Of course. Ummmm, it's just. I was wondering! If you were free tomorrow...

voice,

[psychopath]

Oh- I suppose, yes.

[he hums a little.]

Does my big sister want a date?

[SCARLET FLUSH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO HER NECK, it's a good thing she's not recording her face. She sputters a bit, though.]

It's not that! I wanted to invite you over! My big brother's birthday is tomorrow and I'm going to make it the best party I possibly can, with cakes and streamers and fencing and good things! And since he's so solemn I thought that I should invite my friends, so that someone could come to see him. I thought it would be lovely to have you come, too.

[you should get used to this lizzie THIS IS THE JACK EXPERIENCE]

Oh, good heavens, I'll help with the preparations, then! Have you a motif? Colors? What sort of cake? You're such a thoughtful sister.

voice,

[smallshoes]

Well I wanted to rely heavily on green, for the nostalgia of his college days... Blues and yellows also, I think! And white. I already have many streamers and things like that stashed away in my bedroom... [Ehehe.] I thought it would be nice to have some orange gladiolus flowers for him, if I can go out and find them. I was hoping I might duel with him and then present him with his gift after our match. Mostly, though, the motif is very much love and celebration! It's going to sparkle!

The cake won't be baked until morning. I'm going to get up extra early. I need some maraschino cherries for it, though.

voice,

[psychopath]

I can help with the flowers and the cherries and-

[he breathes in audibly,] Goodness! I'll be able to see you fight, that'd be incredible!

voice,

[smallshoes]

Oh, it'd only be a mock match.
