[Duncan/Ezra] - Clearing out the place
Who: Duncan & Ezra
When: Thursday, 9/29
Where: The Vahishta's chambers, Bastan
Before/After: After his dmail with Ezra
Warnings: Drinking, burning shit that never belonged to you, that should be it
[Duncan's waiting for Ezra in front of the church in jeans and a T-shirt, of course with a long-sleeved shirt underneath because that addition to his Earth wardrobe will not be changing anytime soon. When Ezra arrives, Duncan leads him into the Vahishta's chambers.]
[there used to be a gun-tree growing out of one of the armchairs, but it's gone now, and any structural damage left in its wake has since been repaired. The chair's even been replaced with a brand new recliner that...doesn't really match the rest of the room. comfortable as shit, though.]
[Duncan shows Ezra where the kitchen is--it's tiny, but there was more than enough room to put in a coffeemaker and a full-size fridge, which is stocked with soda and beer, including the case of Nenakret-brewed stuff he picked up on his way back. There's also a liquor shelf with a meagre collection of bottles, most from Earth but a couple Zenderael ones he's picked up since he got here. Ezra is welcome to whatever he likes.]
[Duncan grabs a beer for himself before finally heading into the study, where the old Vahishta's stuff has been boxed and piled up in the corner. The room is pretty spacious, mostly filled with bookshelves loaded with antique-looking books. There's a desk too, where Duncan's laptop usually sits (currently at his hotel room in the Nenakret), with a modern very comfortable desk chair that obviously was not the room's original fixture.]
There it is. [he motions to the boxes in the corner] All the shit I've cleared out to make room for my own.

no subject
[pulling out his phone, scrolling through the numbers of important officials to find the one that seems most helpful]
If they have the servers maybe we can figure out how the fuck they did everything they did. They confiscated everything, right--maybe there's records that can tell us who they were working with.
[ugh he has no law enforcement officials in here besides Ezra, major oversight on his part. He settles on Dorothy Beauregard, his 'handler' as it were, who is always on top of her shit and has never let him down when he needed something done]
[pauses before dialing though and looks at Ezra] Do you have the number? I'd have to make a call to get it.
no subject
Far as I know. Maybe some of it went out of the state, though- I remember a lot of the employees were handed over to another authority.
Yeah, I got the number. What am I asking for- the servers, files, everything?
no subject
Yeah, everything. Tell them we're willing to come in and look at it there, too. They probably have detectives who've already been digging through that shit, we want to talk to them too.
no subject
Okay, lemme give 'em a call. [ he grunts and gets up, knee cracking this time, and he gives a bit of a hobble as he walks aside and selects the number, toeing another book as he clears his little book barricade.
his voice changes a little when he talks to people like this on the phone- the informality drops and everything comes out crisp and authoritative. brief greetings, right to business. x-dav stuff, did anything make it through- they need to look at it, is that possible- does it have anything to do with the parade? yes, very well it could- he glances over to duncan. so do they have any of it? ]
no subject
[he doesn't think anything of the shift in Ezra's voice from casual to official. he does the same thing when he needs to, he just...feels the need to a bit less often.]
[as for whether they have any of it, Ezra will receive a yes, they still have the servers in the evidence room, along with everything that was confiscated from X-DAV, but none of the detectives working on that case are on duty at the moment and would need to be called in if the guild leaders wanted to speak with them.]
no subject
Do you want to look at them now or later? The detectives can't come in until later when they're off duty.
no subject
Huh? [looks up, pause] Uhhh, I'd rather do it when we have detectives there. So later, I guess.
[he turns back to the box and digs out a portrait, cocks his head at it, then turns it for Ezra to see. Definitely the ex-Vahishta, but clean-shaven and with a much less ridiculous haircut.] It's so fucking weird to think he just changed his hair every 50 years and people bought that it was a different guy every time.
