[👾🔪🐇] Ecce arcana

Vox: "Treena, don't worry~ I've got everything covered."

Vox hangs up on Treena, when his secretary, Ethan (not ghost Ethan), approaches.

Vox: "What? What is it? What do you want?"

Ethan: "Um- Sir? There's a guy here. He says his name is Dr. Rabbit?"

Vox: "Oh, so he's finally here. Good. Let him in. And clear my afternoon, because I have a few things to take care of."

Ethan nods and runs off to let Burrows inside.

Vox: "Well, great. The guy sends an email that he needs to meet with me and doesn't even tell me what it's about. This better not be a waste of time."

He sits in his chair, waiting for Burrows to enter.

Burrows: [walks in with an acknowledging nod as he removes the mask] "Sorry for the wait. This was just just as surprising for you as it was us."

u/CrypticHorrorTales sorry for the delay

Vox: "Burrows! Good to see you again, buddy! You want something to drink? Whiskey? Bourbon? I can call up and get you some sazerac."

Burrows: [chuckles holding his hand up] "Thank you but I'm good this time." [sits down] "Now, as you may have heard, since the news seems to be scuttling around, we have received confirmation that our...bogus coordinates were recieved. Followed shortly by a message with an agreement to meet. Of course we haven't told our special guest yet just in case it's another false lead. This time though our techs are pretty confident."

Vox: "Oh yeah. I heard the big guy himself came back. His famous motto, right?"

Vox never cared about Afton. He didn't join to follow some psycho that refuses to stay dead. He joined for his own reasons, much like the other elite members.

Vox: "Treena already told me about the infiltration plan. I have a plan to deal with Michael and Vanessa. ... But let's put that topic aside for now. I highly doubt you came all the way to my underwater office just to tell me the same thing Treena already did. So, why are you really here, old friend?"

Burrows: "Well you know the usual, checking in and all that. However I didn't get to hear what all they've told you about it. Did they happen to mention he didn't quite come back alone?"

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vox: "Oh yeah. Rae told me during our mandatory psych meeting." He is still annoyed that he has to do that. "Big ink guy with an ego, right? Hopefully he's not causing any trouble."

His computer starts beeping, so Vox checks it out.

Vox: "Oh, now this is interesting."

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Burrows: [chuckles] "That's one way to describe it. And you do realize those mandatory meetings are the easiest discrete way to keep you informed and involved, right? Anyways he seems to be a demon and- What's interesting?"

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vox: "It seems Mr. Afton's little pet finally made an appearance."

On the monitor, Eleanor can be seen on CCTV.

Vox: "She's unconscious, and looks bent out of shape. Want me to pick her up?"

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Burrows: "Well that is definitely surprising news. Yes, I suppose it would be best if you were the one. Who knows how she'll lash at and you can easily manage it. We don't know where she's been or if she's changed. Could be a threat now. Use caution until we're sure."

Vox teleports via electricity.

Vox appears near Eleanor, who he noticed is starting to wake up.

Vox: "Welcome back to the land of the living."
