[Guess who is a little less waterlogged and a little further away from dying now? Regulus Black looks at the screen with a faint bit of apprehension as he fiddles with it, his lips pressed tightly together. He's still wearing his old fashioned wizarding robes, but they're much drier than last time.]

...right, [he mutters to himself,] like a fellytone.

[Regulus clears his throat.]

My name is Regulus Arcturus Black, heir to the house of Black. I'm afraid my introduction to this city was a bit not good- I'm fine now.

[Pause. He's not sure what to say next.]

Can anyone even hear me? [Regulus shakes the PCD, hard. Be nice, it looks like something completely alien- not only is he a wizard from a family that condones muggle appliances, but he's also from the seventies. Stuff this small and advanced wouldn't exist for at least thirty to forty years.] I'm trying to find the library or- something else worth doing in this place. If anyone can point me in the right direction- well.

[He gives the PCD another shake, frowning. In his shaking, his hand hit the button and he accidentally shuts off the feed.]

If you can communicate with it, then it's working. Kindly refrain from forcing me to have to explain it in terms that even Crabbe and Goyle could understand.

And yes, twenty years [Plus the death of the woman he loved and several years of spying.] Can do that to a person. Shocking, I know.

At least you're not bald. I thought you'd be bald.

[He laughs once, before sobering up.]

And I think I understand this now. I just haven't really used it yet. It's a bit like a radio that can go both ways, yeah?

[snarkypotions]

_{[He's just... not even going to dignify that with an answer.]}

Of sorts.

[the-noble-black.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Except sometimes there's a picture too.

[snarkypotions]

And text.

[the-noble-black.livejournal.com]

It's a complicated device.

[He frowns.]

After my time.

[snarkypotions]

And mine.
