[ jiǔ - Voice/Location: Central - Backdated to Piper's Wendigo-glitch ]

[ The transmission starts with a string of very long Chinese swear words, and the sound of something smashing against a wall or door in the background. It's almost hard to hear what she's saying, but the tone is entirely there. ]

Somethin'..........on't know what it is, but.....warn...out of Central. Repeat, stay out--

[ There's a crash, louder than the ones before, and the howling snarls of something finally breaking through the door. More swears on Kaylee's part, and the tablet switches off. ]

Hush. I've got things well under contr--

[Suddenly there's the sound of a crowd panicking, the Master mutters something under his breath in a strange language that sounds suspiciously like a curse, and the audio feed cuts out.]
syncopath: (frickin' awesome)

[His reply is a little delayed, but when it comes he sounds oddly calm. Smug, even.]

Everything's fine. No need to worry.
syncopath: (man on the street)

Yes. I... managed to lose it.

[There's a faint growl, not too far off in the distance, and he hurriedly muffles the receiver]

And you? Still safe?
syncopath: (please could you stop the noise)

[He sounds too distracted to really respond to her injuries. Or anything she's said, really.]

Mmm. Well. Best to stay put for now. The creature's still out there, after all.
syncopath: (what is that smell)

[Well, he's just batting a thousand, then, isn't he? Whatever that means.]

River?

[The Master sincerely hopes that isn't someone he's just had the Wendigo attempt to eat]
syncopath: (cornered animal)

Oh, thank goodness for that.

Still, isn't there the chance you'd inadvertently lead the creature to her? Better to stay put until this is over.
syncopath: (headache)

[And she gets a sigh of her very own, back at her.]

All right, then. Stay out of trouble.

[Meanwhile, the Master will do his best to keep the creature 'entertained'... and far away from Kaylee.]
