Bruiser almost jumped as he heard his name called over the tannoy and quickly moved his waiting hand, giving Arkwright a slap on the shoulder as he quickly pushed passed him in the crowded corridor. [color=f7976a]"Whoa, sorry mate, gotta go,"[/color] He said with a smile, knowing he the call would be from.

As he stepped into the operations centre one of the techs spotted Bruiser and waved him over to a console in the corner. [b]"You know they shouldn't even have this frequency..."[/b] She said with a weary smile as Bruiser pulled a set of headphones up onto his ears.

[color=f7976a]"Yeah, I'm sorry. They get worried though and it helps me knowing they're safe."[/color] Bruiser replied bashfully, lowering his head and looking up at the woman with puppy dog eyes.

[b]"In future just have them use the standard frequencies,"[/b] The tech replied, scribbling the numbers down on a piece of paper and handing them to the pilot, "That way we can route the call straight to your quarters." Resting her hand on his shoulder for a moment the tech stepped away giving Bruiser a little privacy.

[color=f7976a]"Sure thing, and thanks."[/color] Bruiser said, turning to watch the kind lady walk away before leaning back over the console and pressing the button to link the feed. Immediately the screen was filled with three happy faces, one a man who looked like an older version of Bruiser accompanied by two small girls, both around the age of seven. [color=f7976a]"Hey there, Angels."[/color] Bruiser greeted them happily, [color=f7976a]"What time is it over there?"[/color]

[b]"Just coming up on nine, and these little ladies wouldn't go to bed without saying night to their daddy first."[/b] The man said, patting the girls on their heads in unison. For the next few minutes Bruiser chatted with his family, getting updated on the news from home and getting shown pictures and bicycles and dinosaurs the girls had drawn in school.
