manofgnee | Case 137 [Video]

I have some excellent news. As of today, officially, I no longer have a broken foot. I am out of the cast and off of the crutches!! Good as new!

[Showing off, he turns on his camera and wiggles his newly healed foot, grinning and waving.]

Ta daaah!! No more crutches, I am officially back in business, woo!!

[He laughs a bit, grinning some more.]

I tell ya, its a real drag on the whole 'investigating' thing, going around on a crutch. Makes it really easy for people to catch you or hear you coming...ah well, all in the past.

I feel like celebrating, for some reason.

[PRIVATE TO MOUSE//UNHACKABLE]

Hey, Mouse, I was wondering. I'm all in a celebrating mood today since I'm off the crutch, and I wanted to know if you wanted to come over and hang out? I've gotten some decorating done so far...

...buuut I don't have a tree yet. Wanna come with me to get a really good one? We can start decorating it after we get one too...

I just wanna make sure you're okay...The curse two days ago...I got really worried, man. I feel like going and doing mindless fun...it's the least I can do, since I couldn't help you more...

Oh, crap, did I wake you up?

[Well, now he looks upset, because that was not what he wanted to do.]

...how's your face doing...? I should have asked you how you were yesterday, I'm sorry...

[ The picture jostles as Mouse emerges from his cocoon of sheets, his expression still sleepy but now a little admonishing. Normally Mouse would probably chide Hanna openly and more playfully, but he's tired and only has so much brave face to go around. His voice is earnest either way, when he says: ]

Hannaaaaaaaaaa. [ Don't be upset, isn't spoken but is more than implied. Mouse smiles a little encouragingly at his device. ] Saw Dr. Chase. All patched up.

[ He nods. See? No need to worry. ]

I'm sorry I woke you up, Mouse...

[He smiles sheepishly, and look, he's keeping his voice down now too!]

I'm glad you're all patched up.

...Go back to sleep, okay? We can look for a Christmas tree later, once you're more awake.

[ Mouse goes to stick his tongue out at the thought of going back to bed now that he's finally up, but that quickly gets derailed when he goes to open his mouth and gets distracted by a good and proper yawn. He makes a couple loud gawping sounds -- much louder than he ever manages to talk normally -- and then allows himself to drop back into his bundle of blankets, holding the communicator device up over his head. ]

Already up up up. [ A pause as he gives a wiggle. Mmmmm, blankets. ] Ish.

[He laughs and smirks a bit.]

My point has been made for me. Go back to sleep, we've got all day, and you look exhausted.

[ Despite the fussy face Mouse makes at being told to go back to bed, he does manage to pull some of his covers back over himself, half disappearing beneath blankets. He doesn't put his communicator away, however, just continues to hold it over his head and look thoughtfully at Hanna on the screen. ]

Never had a tree. First time, here.

Then we'll have to get a super extra awesome tree.

[ Mouse giggles, sleepily, covering his mouth with a hand. ]

Don't know how to pick!

It'll be an adventure!!

[ He yawns again. ]

Should come over. Wake my ass up.

Aww, but you look so comfy!! I feel bad having woken you up already...

Already up! [ Mouse insists sleepily. ]

You are so not already up, man!
