hey espen . heard hwhat happened th'other day . if ya need anythin' , anythin' at all , just gimme a holler . ye know where t' find me

- @the-doormanofalltime

"...huh..."

[He tried to make a smile, but it looked a bit awkward. He was a little embarrassed, Val was one of his friends, so he didn't want this to be his first impression in a while.]

"....I'll make sure to... Thanks, I suppose."

[the-doormanofalltime]

" ... mind if i drop by with a meal sometime soon ? made too much n' don't wanna waste it ."

[he's making excuses . he just wants espen to be fed .]

[onewiththeother]

[He was a little conflicted. He was always a bit picky during times like these, hence why he wasn't eating as good as he used to. However, he didn't want to upset Val, so he hesitantly nodded after a while. Though.. He didn't want to upset her by wasting a good portion of it. But... In the end, he nodded.]

"...Oh, um... Sure, thank you..."

[He could always leave leftovers for later.]

[the-doormanofalltime]

" perfect ."

[she sensed his hesitance and decided to ease up .]

" well ... i'll leave ya be , darlin' . my shift starts in a few . gimme a ring if ya need anythin' ."

[onewiththeother]

cole , i gotta very important question fer ya , 'n i needja to humor me . what d'ya know about espen's date ? didja happen to see anythin' , hear somethin' from anyone ? anythin' .

- @the-doormanofalltime

"Ohhh~ The little date...? Ohoho, have I heard and seen things, Mr. Doorman~ I saw Espen leave that little place looking like he was gonna faint at any moment! Ya should have seen how pale his face was~ He looked like a sad, kicked little puppy out there, even more so than he usually does, which says a LOT."

"Personally...? I'd say he just got rejected or something... No one enters a restaurant in a suit with someone else for a simple "get together". To be honest, I kinda saw it coming~ I don't know what anyone would see in a scrawny, skittish little guy like him, no offense, o' course. He's just not... Someone you'd expect to be in a relationship, yeah?"

"So don't worry 'bout him too much. Or maybe do, he practically can't function on his own... No wonder ya came asking."

[the-doormanofalltime]

[she stared at him , eyes boring deep into his soul with an edge of irritation to them .]

" saw it coming ? you know espen's a person with feelin's right ? not some television character you can just say horrible shit like that about ... fuck he ever done to you ?"

[the doorman pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration , slowly processing everything]

" so that's what's been up ... poor guy must be devastated . don't need nothin' else from you , then . thanks , i s'ppose ... lunatic ."

[that last word was gritted out inaudibly , just for val to hear .]

[onewiththeother]

[Cole laughed, waving a hand dismissively.]

"Oh, it's fiiine, not like he's around to hear. Not the worst thing I've said about someone either, hah~ I'd say I was more tame this time. He's a poor little boy, he deserves at least some leverage, hm?"

"But yeah... If that's all, I'll be seeyin' ya, maybe~ I gotta get myself ready for the upcoming shift."

[the-doormanofalltime]

[val sniffled , an action of disdain and general annoyance .]

" hear ya loud 'n clear , hoss . i'll leave ya to it then ."

[onewiththeother]

harvey . know you was on duty before n after a specific person's date . didja notice anythin' off ? hear anythin' ? hell- see anythin' even ? i need all the answers i can get ... for no reason in particular .

- @the-doormanofalltime

"...I saw Espen exit the building in a fancy suit. He said it was for a normal dinner... But when he came back, he appeared distraught like usual, though I believe I saw tears in his eyes. I am not one to jump to conclusions, and the line was still going, so I did not ask about it."

"That must've been a mistake. As of now, he has not left the apartment since."

"As for the "no reason" clarification... I am beginning to wonder why you're asking such things."

[the-doormanofalltime]

" well that ain't good . has anybody else noticed ...? i ain't seen 'im around since b'fore yesterday now that i really think 'bout it . hope he's ok ."

[she paused , eyes cast downward in avoidance]

" just concerned 'bout a ... a friend is all . if ya happen to see 'im or hear anythin' else , please let me know . whatever happened can'tve been good . and uh- thanks fer the help ."

[onewiththeother]

"The other neighbors have been talking about the dinner, but never the aftermath. Though, I haven't been paying attention to what they were saying."

"Though... Mr. Wagner from the diner is a bit of a loudmouthed gossip. I assume they found out about what happened from him. It's unsurprising, Nana's is right across the restaurant Espen said he was going to."

"I'll see what I can do about Espen's case, though."

[the-doormanofalltime]

" i 'ppreciate yer assistance ... i'll hafta ask mr. wagner what 'e knows then . you don't happen to know if he's at work or not ... do ya ?"

[onewiththeother]

"He works from 6 to 11:30 PM. I believe you have a little while before he departs."

[the-doormanofalltime]

" perfect . thank ya kindly , harv . you've been a lotta help ."

agatha , i heard through the grape-vine that you was taxiin' fer a certain Event last night .

you know what's goin' on , or have any helpful information you don't mind sharin' ?

- @the-doormanofalltime

"Oh, me...? I don't really know what happened, I only really drove them there and back... But the way Espen had changed so drastically after the dinner was...Strange."

"He was nervous at first, I know he's always like that, but despite it all, he was... excited. He had a little smile on his face, even talked about potentially opening up to others, hell, he even put effort into combing his hair for once! Seeing his glow up was astonishing... He never really does that for his meetings with Izaack."

"...But when I drove him back, he wouldn't even talk to me. He looked completely dead, I'm surprised Zack didn't touch on that, especially with how close they were. When I asked him to talk, he said nothing happened, but I highly doubt it."

"I rarely see Espen like this, usually at his worst he's frantic and panicky, but... He was completely solemn. My heart's still aching, I hope he speaks up soon, but... I won't force him."

[the-doormanofalltime]

" that don't sound good . thanks fer yer help , i 'ppreciate it ... if ya find anythin' else out , gimme a holler ."

[to himself: i should keep askin' 'round . really don't like how this is lookin']

[the-doormanofalltime]

“Val!!! Hello!! Flower I bring, friend we now be!!!”

[She holds a small flower out, clearly picked from the pavement cracks outside]

-Cassiopia

hey there , kiddo . thanks fer the flower , i'll take real good care of it

[he smiles and gingerly takes the flower , ruffling the young doppel's hair]

[izaack-gauss]

"Such a shame... Sizzling hot sausages... Juicy burgers... The thought of them alone makes me hungry... Even if the veggies and the buns make my stomach hurt... I just want burgers.... Unfortunately, I am kept on a leash until the calls come in... So there will be no burger patties for me today..."
