8th Kata [Voice/Action; Backdated to around when the team gets back]

[fearless_leader]

[Here he was back from the mission. He's tired, but for more reasons than just one. Going from freezing, to hot and humid, to back to freezing has been wreaking havoc on his ectothermic system, which had gotten settled into the winter regime. He still did the best he could out in the field though. First thing he does is give a call out to his housemates.]

Don, Robert? I'm back. Robert, could you bring me my suit?

[He hates how he sounds under the weather, but at the moment he can't help it.

He'll be lingering around the tunnels until Robert arrives, or he might get tired of waiting and stubbornly decide to walk home.]

[Oh, Leo.

Robert, of course, worried for his friend (and... step-brother, of a sort?) while he was gone. The climate shift couldn't have been good for him.

But even so, he doesn't expect Leo to sound this bad...]

... Of course. C-Can... can you tell me where exactly you are located...?

And, er, might you need anything else...? [He might as well bring Leo something. Perhaps something not-too-hot to eat?]

[Voice]

[i_speak_softly]

[Well, well, well. Don is reasonably coherent today and cannot resist this opportunity to get back at his brother a little.]

Welcome back, Leo. Do you want me to bring your suit? You can have mine also, and on the way back I can build you a snowman.
