[ He has instructions written down on how to deal with things either way but it's just Easier when using it as a voice message.
But Athena... that isn't his name. ]
Someone gave me instructions, though it's not as easy as I'd hoped. [ But you don't have to be so smug about it gurl ] They really did make things complicated now. Other than that I'm fine, I think.
[ If you can be fine when you're having to learn a million new things and your head still feels like it's in overload. ]
[ Same thing over voice message, honestly. He pauses at the question though, because one of them he's still a bit... well not cautious over but it's complicated. ]
They offered some when I arrived that I'll probably take. [ Why are you trying to dress him up Athena. ] Though I could probably change some if you had something in mind?
Then I'll pass. [ HE DOESN'T MEAN IT. The fact that he's grinning as he says it shows that--though she can't see that. Oops. ] But what is cosplaying? A game?
Maid costumes, cat costumes, dog costumes, [ and any other animals you can think of, really. ] and there were a couple of times that I had to dress up as a magical girl.
[ a beat. ]
They're really cute! Do you want to be a magical boy?
[ Athena ... you truly need to be stopped. Thankfully he's learned that a number of people have heard of him so the magic thing isn't too much of a problem -- especially as Arthur or no one else he knows from home seems to be here -- but still...
Why is she asking him? ]
Why are you asking me? [ No... maybe he will actually pass why does this sound so ominous?! ]
I don't know, the options I have on this thing seem a little less embarrassing than that. I've had to wear the ceremonial servants robes before and that was bad enough.
I'd like to see you try. [ He says it with a laugh... I'm sorry Athena. He can't help it though, because while he has to do whatever Arthur tells him to do, he won't listen to anyone else (and tbh even sometimes with Arthur he Won't.) What a rebel. ]

Hey, Merl! [ that's her nickname for him now. ] Your voice message thing got cut off so you sound really weird.
Anyway, not why I called! How are you doing? Do you know how to text yet? I'm really considerate for leaving you a voice message than a text, huh?

Do you have a job yet?

They offered some when I arrived that I'll probably take. [ Why are you trying to dress him up Athena. ] Though I could probably change some if you had something in mind?

Do you like playing games?
[ excuse the segue, but she swears this is still related to the whole cosplay thing. ]
no subject
It depends on the type of game.
[ He's waiting for more explanation anyway... stop being so desperate to get him into weird cosplay outfits?!?! ]
no subject
Penalty games. You can name whichever game you can think of, and the person who loses has to do something for the winner.
[ see. it makes sense now that she's given the details of her dumb idea. ]
