FORM: Multiple crystal communique sort of thing
SENDER: Cremisius Aclassi
RECIPIENT: Sam, Bull, Korrin, Adelaide, Zevran, and whoever else wants to hear the general message.
WHAT: Updates on the disappearance of everyone's favorite Lieutenant
WHEN: Over a span of two weeks after First Day
WHERE: All over Skyhold, from being on the road to Antiva?
NOTES: None but a link back to Sam and Krem having a call.

General: If anyone has jobs for the Bull's Chargers while both the Chief and his Second are unavailable, information can still be handed down via the crystals here, and orders issued as necessary the same way. Lieutenant Cremisius Aclassi is not due to return until later on in the month, so best to keep him abreast of the situation where possible, whatever the situation may be.

Sam: D'you want me to bring you anything back? I mean I've gotten to the Free Marches and...well, Ostwick's on the horizon. So. Y'know.

Iron Bull: Oh sweet Maker it's good to be back where it's warm again, even if it is raining so hard I can't see ten feet in front of me.

_{[And it does sound like it's coming down in torrents in the background, judging by the sheer level of noise of both rain and low rolls of thunder.]}

Korrin: Ready the nugs. I'll be speaking to Bull about the catapult. The moment I get home, we are doing this, my friend.

_{[Note that it is still raining. A lot.]}

Adelaide: Mammaaaaaaaan I'm wet and cold.

_{[The voice is put on specifically to be a nuisance. It has stopped raining, but it's obvious that Krem has a bit of a sniffle.]}

Zev: Alright. I'm not quite there yet, but I have been talking to merchants coming and going from Antiva City. So I've found a catalog here. What the hell am I looking at? Why does it have-

_{[What follows is a mildly embarrassed list of brief descriptions of illustrations in said catalog.]}

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

...Krem, is that you--? Or--Um. Something else--?

[ She's been worried about him for ages, and the next thing she hears is some weird kind of answering machine. What the heck. ]

Are you--Or Krem--Or whoever--okay...?

Bel? Bel, calm yourself, it's just me. I'm just trying to let people know that I can still be contacted for business, if nothing else.

_{[A paused, then a lowered voice.]}

I'm fine, please don't worry so much.

Oh--Well, um. I don't have any business, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry, but...Krem, you've been gone a lot longer than anyone else who went with you, I didn't know...

[ She probably could have asked Iron Bull, but he is Big. Or Sam. But she didn't want to give Sam the wrong idea. ]

Sorry.

_{[Bull certainly is Big, he wouldn't blame her for not going to ask him anything. Or Sam, for that matter.]}

It's...not something I can talk much about, but I didn't come back with the rest because I didn't want to have to go through the mountains again after I got back. Wanted to save myself some time travelling so I'd be able to get back that much sooner.

Stop apologizing, you haven't done anything wrong, I promise.

S--Okay. Alright. Thank you.

I hope everything goes alright. Let me know if you need anything? I don't think there's much I can do here, but--If there is, you just need to name it.

Let me know when you get back, so I can give you your scarf.

I'll let you all know when I'm about to start back. If I do end up needing anything, you'll be the first to know of it.

...I feel like I should have stopped long enough to get the scarf in the first place, now that I'm thinking about it.

_{[Huff. well, too late now.]}

Just be careful, please.

[ She hasn't any right to fuss over him, but…she's still going to do it. Fight her. ]

And the scarf will be waiting here for you. I guess I could have sent it along...? Sorry.

Please, paullula. Nothing I'm doing's dangerous. And even if it was, I'd still be just fine.

Keep hold of the scarf. I'll find you the moment I return for it.

...Paullula?

[ What's with everyone and giving her names in languages she can't understand???? ]

But--Um. Thank you, Krem. I'll--I'll be waiting.

[ Creators damn it all, why can't he be an asshole. It would make her life so much easier. ]
