_{[Out of all the English people in Wonderland, Bela's accented voice is nicest one to hear. He's surprised to get a message from her, but then Adam tends to get snagged in Wonderland's ups and downs like everybody else.]}

Bela. Hey. Glad to hear from you..

_{[His personal downs just tend to be much steeper, and his ups much smaller. Doesn't make for great people skills. That's his fault. She's not the only one who struggles with keeping up to date with everything.]}

No, don't apologize. I know how it is. I... haven't been all there, either. It's enough just dealing with our own stuff, you know? I get it. And I'm sorry, too. But with people getting killed and the events... it's good to hear a friendly voice. Are you all right? You don't need anything?

_{[She's not in any trouble that involves aforementioned serial killers and event crap, is she?]}
