[brynwieldr]

From: Leo (Odin)
Date: April 19th

[So Leo is. Distressed, to say the least. The wedding is soon, there's still things to get and organize and do and he seems not to be aware that he accidentally got his device to record.]

--no, dammit, that's not the voice recognition program at all, is it? Dammit, I thought these things were supposed to be helpful!

[The camera shifts--Leo is holding the phone as he makes his way to his computer before setting it down. There is furious typing as he tries to google how to make things work.]

"Model number", what the hells is a model number. Oh, damn it all, I'll just find their number again, surely it can't be that hard...

[Type type smack smack smack.]

Stupid thing, work damn you!

[Someone is having Problems, okay?]

Leo...? Would you like some help with the model number thing?

[ She's here to help, Father. ]

[Leo jumps, yelping in shock because he didn't think Kairi was nearby, where is she--

Oh.

Oh gods.]

Kairi. How long as my phone been on?

Re: Video

[pure_radiantics]

I heard... something about a voice recognition program?

[ And the swear before and after it, but... she's trying not to call him out like that, since again #Stressed ]

[brynwieldr]

[Sigh.]

I was going to finally use that personal assistant feature they talk about so often. I must have hit record by mistake.

Re: Video

[pure_radiantics]

Oh... okay. Sorry for disturbing you.

[ :( ]

[brynwieldr]

[A small sigh, tired not annoyed.]

No, it's fine. I'm just...very, very stressed. Very stressed. Getting married is a bit hectic.

[ Getting married is a bit hectic. Ah, how she wishes she could empathize. She flexes the toes on her foot where the ring is. Instead, she focuses on Leo. ]

If there's anything I can do to take one or two tasks off your plate, please let me know. I'd be more than happy to do it.

[brynwieldr]

...actually, I do have a few errands that need running? Mostly just getting things for the reception.

Re: Video

[pure_radiantics]

Well you know I can get around places fast with the help of Nimbus

Video

[brynwieldr]

True. I'll text you the list?

Re: Video

[pure_radiantics]

Of course! You can count on me!

[artificialrose]

...Ah. Sorry to interrupt, but it seems you've left something recording.

[Garry doesn't want to just butt in without warning, after all. But, you know, with the warning given- ]

What do you need help with exactly?

[brynwieldr]

[You didn't hear him just yelp, nope. You're imagining things.]

I...lost the number to a florist we were talking with and honestly that was just the start of my day.

[artificialrose]

Oh, I see. Then, can you remember the name of that florist?

[brynwieldr]

...no. That's the problem. I had it written down and I lost the paper, so I was going to just call them, but I also need to reschedule an appointment with the tailor...

[artificialrose]

Oh. Dear.

[Leo, buddy, all sorts of things are going wrong with you this morning, aren't they? Garry is certainly sympathetic.]

Do you remember at least the street or, well, even the town that they're at?

[brynwieldr]

I remember that they are in Düsseldorf, Germany.

[Which at least something, but not much of something.]

[artificialrose]

[ . . . ]

That... is very far away.

[Well, you know. Relatively speaking. Considering how much of things seem to happen in Japan. Well, ah, give Garry a second here...]

Any particular reason you choice somewhere like that...?

[brynwieldr]

That area of Europe is roughly where Odin and Foresti originate from, and it's honestly more familiar to me than Japan is even with the...time shift, for lack of a better word. I also liked their options better.

[artificialrose]

Oh, that makes sense. I've never really thought about going to other countries... My own god is a part of the Roman Pantheon, but I don't believe we've ever traveled there very much...

[Maybe he should bring it up with Komaeda sometime.]

Anyway... I did a bit of googling and found a few flowershops. Let me know if any of them ring a bell, alright?

[And he ends over a small list via text. They're not every single flowershop in the city, but, you know. It's a start.]

[brynwieldr]

[He reads over the list.]

--ah, yes. Thank you. Now if only my computer would start up again....

[artificialrose]

Well, I'm afraid I'm of minimal help there. What is it doing?

[brynwieldr]

It gave me a weird blue screen and then just. Stopped functioning. I've never seen it do that before.

[And he is way too frazzled to learn about blue screens of death okay.]

[artificialrose]

Oh. Oh no.

[Garry, on the other hand, did somehow learn about such dreaded sights. When he was alive, sure, but he learned.]

Well.... Try restarting it. Or, well, have you already done that before?

[brynwieldr]

I tried. It's not responding.

[artificialrose]

...You may need to get a repair person. I think it's completely outside your ability now... At least without possibly damaging it more.

Do you have friends who know about this sort of thing?

[brynwieldr]

[He groans.]

No. I didn't need this this week, I really didn't...

[artificialrose]

There, there... I'm sure there has to be something that can be done. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it...

...Well, if you still have your phone, perhaps you could look up what the problem could be and troubleshoot it yourself?

[brynwieldr]

I hear my fiancé coming. I'll...get him to help. Hopefully.

[artificialrose]

Well, good luck with it all. I understand how much stress you must be under.

Action

[onedrinkwithme]

[Aymeric himself just finished with the final preparations for the wedding cake and the menu when he notices the BBS pop up a notice from Leo. And it did not sound like he meant to do it, oops. So instead of ignoring it or calling, he's going to be a good husband and come to the temple and make his way inside. He doesn't need to make himself known, a good kiss to Leo's cheek does that simple enough.]

You sounded troubled.

[brynwieldr]

[Leo is sitting in his study, head in his hands as his computer lies there, unresponsive.]

My computer died.

[onedrinkwithme]

[Yikes.]

Oh...that is not well. Mayhap we can find someone who can fix this, surely there are those on the Near Shore who specialize in such.

[brynwieldr]

I may need to just get another one and see if someone can...do something about all the things I had on it.

[Siiiigh.]

I prefer books.

[onedrinkwithme]

How exactly did it die? There might be a way to figure out a solution.

[It can't hurt to try.]

[brynwieldr]

It just...died. I was trying to find something and it died.

[onedrinkwithme]

Did anything pop up right before it stopped working?

[Did a virus pop up? He doesn't know about blue screens of death yet but still, technology is weird.]

[brynwieldr]

Just a blue screen with some text on it.

[onedrinkwithme]

Hold on, let us check the Google on this.

[By means of the smartphone. Aymeric will type in 'computer blue screen' and see what the interwebs say. Ok, attempt to restart it? Running the...safe mode? That doesn't sound weird. But before Aymeric can even touch the laptop, it shoots out sparks and refuses to do anything.]

Oh dear...this does not look fixable.

[brynwieldr]

[Leo looks like he's either about to cry or break something. Probably break something, because it's Leo.]

Just what I needed this week.

[onedrinkwithme]

[Uh oh, hubby looks upset and he wants to keep a place intact so.]

One way might be closed off but there are always other routes. We will try another.

[brynwieldr]

I'll need to buy another.

[onedrinkwithme]

Well, that too.
