[ Because Lucina texting willingly is just punishing for everyone involved - ]
Hello, Connor?
[ She's been putting this off for a few days with surprising success. Having known Connor a little while now, the fact that he wasn't nipping at her heels to nourish his indomitable curiosity is a bit of a surprise. He must be distracted, she assumes, or perhaps her preconceived notions about him aren't as correct as she thinks they are. (Lucina pretty much accepts she'll be wrong a good 50% of the time these days, and tiredly so.)
By this point, she figures she's quickly encroaching his deadline for Truth Talk Time, and - and maybe it will do her some good to say something - anything - aloud. As it is, her chest feels as a blocked chimney, wrapped around secrets that don't need to be and little intricacies she isn't sure she knows how to explain, and it all tastes like smoke in her mouth.
I swear, in its early conception, this was going to be a brief tag. It was! ]
If you have a moment, I thought we could continue our conversation from the caverns.
[ A pause - ]
If it's alright with you, I would prefer to do so in person.
