...OF THE ESTEEMED LORD LUIS SERRA, FIRST OF HIS NAME, HAILING FROM THE REALM OF VALDELOBOS, RESIDING AT PRESENT IN THE TRADE QUARTER. UNWED, BUT RECEPTIVE.
[Wouldn't it be fucking funny if he'd put it in his jacket pocket?
...He didn't, but that would be just Leon's luck.
In Leon's defense, Luis' maid had been holding onto his communicator, ever since she was separated from him by the flood waters before she could fully explain it to him.]
[ He feels deflated by the extent of his relief. And a little nauseated.
That's probably just being sick, though. Leon drags his wrist across his fevered brow. ]
...
You left your— [ and he can probably just hear the roll of his eyes ] —coat of arms, Sir Knight. [ pretty sure he's using the wrong term there, but whatever ]
[He thinks that he hears something in the background, but his interest is piqued when Leon's protest seems more...embarrassed, than the annoyed that he expected.
[ Eyebrows raised and eyes wide she's the absolute picture of innocence, if it weren't for the fact that she's desperately trying to suppress a huge smirk. Leon saying her name however she takes a an invitation to say something. She raises her voice, like she's calling out over Leon's shoulder ]
Glad you guys have caught up. [ Leon's dry delivery suggests the opposite. ]
Pick up your shit later. Maybe in a few days. [ Begs a question, like why a few days, but Leon isn't forthcoming about his plan to see if someone can patch the hole punched into the back of Luis's jacket. ]

Hola, Luis speaking.
no subject
That really quiet sound on the other end is Leon letting out a breath. He should lead with an apology. ]
Just gonna let me think you were gone, huh?
no subject
It's followed by a quiet chuckle.]
No 'Hello, Luis?' Tsk tsk.
[He teases, instead of answering the question.]
...You made it clear you already believed I was. [Then, again teasing:] I couldn't risk you fainting at my presence again.

But he can dissect that later.]
Ah, yes, what is a knight-errant without his armor? I trust my squire has taken good care of it.
no subject
She also mouths it at Leon because what. ]
no subject
[ Leon slowly glances at Claire, who has gone suspiciously quiet, up until she snorts.
He half-turns away with the phone against his ear. ]
Don't call me that.
no subject
He switches completely to Spanish.]
My friend, is there a little fly on your wall?
no subject
[ Leon glances back at her, a plea in his raised eyebrows. ]
You met her. ...Claire?
no subject
Hii Luis. Glad you're not dead.
no subject
¡Hola, Claire! I'm glad you are safe as well. Leon hasn't given you too much trouble, has he?
no subject
Just the normal amount of trouble.
no subject

Pick up your shit later. Maybe in a few days. [ Begs a question, like why a few days, but Leon isn't forthcoming about his plan to see if someone can patch the hole punched into the back of Luis's jacket. ]
no subject
A few days?
[He sounds incredulous, but amused.]
If you like it that much, Leon, keep it. I didn't think it was your style.
no subject
[ SIGH. ]
There's this thing going around. Don't want you catching it.
[ Come to think of it, both Claire and Leon sound a little ragged. ]
no subject
[Luis holds the receiver away from his face and coughs into his elbow. When he comes back, his voice is a little raspy.]
Afraid that ship has sailed, amigo. But I'm doing better than a few days ago. You just coming down with it?
no subject
[ His eyebrows knit. Luis has sounded worse than this before. That fact provides no comfort. ]
I can look you up once I've put Claire to bed. [ He's already putting up a hand to try to deflect any incoming fists. ]
no subject
Sounds good. Make sure you get some tea, amigos! And don't have too much fun, you'll make me jealous.
[Wink.]
Later, Sancho! Bye, Claire!
