It's almost silent, but in the distance, Arthur's voice can be made out if you put your mind to it.

"...Merlin, I hardly need your help to figure out this... voice... thing." A short silence, and then, much, much louder, he continues: "No, I am aware of which direction I am supposed to speak in. The question is, do you have any idea--"

  "You have reached the Blackberry telephone of Prince Arthur Pendragon. Leave a voice or text message after the 'beep', and I'll get back to you. Please don't try my room phone, as it is unfortunately deceased."

BEEP.

There was static on the line, and a deep strain in Romeo's voice as he struggled to speak clearly after that beep.

"Arthur. 'tis Romeo. Yurika and I shall not make it to have that drink, unless God Himself comes down to save us. If He does not, know ... know we went bravely, though the fates kept us from journeying to Fandom alongside the rest of you. Farewell, friend. Fight this."

Dojima's voice echoed dimly in the background of Romeo's message, her usual good-cheer sounding somewhat strained. "Oy, Arthur-kun, tell that Witch of yours to get to work and keep you safe, or so help me I will find a way to haunt him."

And then the call ended.
