[OKAY HE GIVES. The last text has an attachment that will open up into a giant screen-consuming cat wallpaper.]
Now you know we're both okay!
Now you know we're both okay!
[ RING RING banana phone (or Cerevice, w/e), you better pick up, Gilbert, or else he'll call you like fifty different times in a row before declaring you a hoax and/or deceased to all their nearest and dearest. He could just skip the formalities and press Vessalius for information, but it isn't like Nightray to willingly shred semantics.
Anyways, he trusts his adopted brother enough to care about the recent RUMORS and SLANDER concerning their family. Or something. Okay. (That's just a blanket excuse, really.) He waits a full thirty seconds before speaking into the receiving end because he doesn't want to seem that desperate to reach him, so: ]
... Gilbert?

[ HE YELLS and also happens to drop/somewhat accidentally toss the cerevice a little right into the fountain he's next to, having stopped to check since WHAT THE HELL YOU AND BREAK...
... this is definitely going to be a day. ]
... this is definitely going to be a day. ]
[ if anything has happened out the outside world, he probably isn't exactly well familiar of it, considering he's probably been moping like a loser on the floor since megumi's disappearance because despite everything, it was nice someone demanded his attention while oz was playing with his friends...
but, that voice is familiar when it pops up on the cerevice... that and Megumi's cybuddy picks the device up in its beak and wanders over to Gil before smacking the device on his face like a seagull my used a rock on a clam it wants to eat.
which at least gets gil's attention even more, now and excuse him while he has one hand over his face where he was assaulted with this thing while he answers.
Elliot's checking up on him. This doesn't usually happen, but it sure makes his life a lot easier (once he stops being a pathetic male who doesn't even understand why he's so angsty but useless about it), since he'll be really mad at himself that he wasn't trying to take care of everyone for a week... ]
—what's wrong? [ he'd be a little less short if he wasn't about to possibly burst into tears from how hard that stupid raven just clocked him. This thing actually can really hurt... okay. ]

[ he may have not super gotten the picture with oz's cat emotes but break made enough of his own that he's definitely recognized cat eats and tails, to say the least.
Which actually is only made worse because despite them all being mixed up together, he got to Oz's cat video first (the joys of reading text messages most recent first) which has results in quite some delay for reasons.
now that he's got his device fixed, though, he's going to going through these but he may have accidentally auto opened all the remaining messages to pop up like a slide show, basically show casing one cat after another via Break's messages.
So yeah he might HAVE maybe freaked out and accidentally knocked himself out with the device trying to STOP THE MADNESS BREAK HE SWEARS TO GOD—
so all break gets in his mailbox is the mess of a couple buttons pressed reactively during the process while he was probably spamming the last several of those messages: ]

Yeah. [ just another day with oz, it's default to answer him like that so... ]
What do you want with the toast? [ he goes back to the fridge now that oz is away from it, not quite remembering what is in there other than butter, but megumi did go shopping for him sometimes to make sure he magically had all the ingredients she demanded from him. He guesses he might have to thank her in the long run for making this situation much more catered to pretty much most of Oz's requests and any further ones he might have.
...he doesn't want to thank her, though, ugh. ]

[Wow Gilbert, go thank people, it won't kill you!!
But he'll successfully rescue the loaf of bread from wherever it is, taking care to bring it back and place it on the counter wherever Gil's setting up his work.]
Hmm... [Like he really needs to think this over, either?!] What about something sweet? Do you have any jam or honey?

I have both. [ therefore you can have both, Oz!! Which means he'll being them back to set them on the counter, but away from the other ingredients since they'll be for the final touches rather than the eggs or any other prep work. ]
All right, I think we can pull this off without any missing items.

[Oz immediately goes for the jar of honey and pulls it over to himself, unscrewing the cap so he can rudely stick a finger in... He'll continue talking like he's not being a honey bandit, though!!]
I knew I could depend on Gil to be prepared! I haven't had any of your cooking in ages, so let's eat as soon as possible, okay?
[It's probably been like, a day. Maybe two... IT'S NOT RARE FOR OZ TO COME OVER TO DEMAND FOOD...]

[ LAAAAAME. No wonder he hasn't been able to contact his sibling if he was spending all his time moodily despairing on the ground, wholly overtaken by lover's heartburn and whatever passed for looming infatuation these days. Not that he knows anything about it, because, you know, them's the breaks. He really, really doesn't want to know that his brother's a walking angstfest, even if he's all but guessed as much at this point.
It's admittedly kind of weird hearing Gilbert's voice after such a protracted hiatus, though, mainly because he sounds like he's crying?! Maybe he really was choked up about Elliot attempting to reach a stalemate after that whole sellout business where Gilbert sold his soul to the Vessalius dukedom to pledge allegiance to a dweeb and a girl that liked to sniff and bite people like she was feral. ]
Are you alright? Do you need a moment?
[ They haven't even touched his death, but frankly speaking, Oz has probably brought him up-to-snuff on the current state of affairs. He isn't calling to host a pity party or anything. ]
I'll cut right to it, then. Did you hear about Vincent? Has he told you anything in particular lately?

[HI, GIL. As if you don't have enough green-eyed blonde-haired brats in your life already, here's one more sending you a cheerful video message!]
Hi there! So, are you the same Gilbert Nightray who's a huge nerd by day but a suave heartbreaker by night?
[...what the hell has Oz been telling her...]
