Hi! This is Pino! Leave a message for me here, okay?

Vince! Did you feel that? Did you?

Yes. It's called an "earthquake", apparently they're common here.

But what caused it?

I'm not sure, the Earth just moves sometime I guess.

That's not a good answer.

I'm sorry. [He really is.:|] Listen, is your building okay? Is your...Papa?

Mmmm. Everything's fine, I think. Some cups fell off the shelf and broke. Did your cups break too?

Uh. [Looking around for the first time really here.] A few.

Be careful when you pick them up! Don't cut yourself on accident.

I'll be fine Pino. We'll both be fine I think if there are no after-shocks.

Aftershock? Does that mean it's going to happen again?

In a smaller way. It's like a wave that hits after a large one, it's smaller, but it can still do damage with everything already so unstable.

If more cups fall, papa might be upset. I'll make sure that doesn't happen. [Resolute nod.]

Ah. I think your Papa prefer if you just didn't get hurt Pino. [Especially if it meant he end up relying on Vincent to fix her.] Is he not at home?

Uh-uh. He's really busy.

[Read: Papa needs to not work so much. :(]

Has he called you yet?

Mmhmm! But just for a second.
