[sorry were you expecting a response to that
because it's pretty much enough for him to turn the thing face-down and also turn face-down back in to the pillow

he doesn't need to deal with sarcastic AI today dammit]

[hypnotherapy]

[ The obnoxious sarcastic AI can actually enter your comm, so good luck with that.

There's a few minutes of blissful silence before he actually speaks. ]

This is a very interesting view of your bedside table. What wood is this?

[pushtheboundaries]

[that sure is Cal fumbling for a pillow and throwing it over the comm. LET'S SEE YOU DEFEAT THAT, HUH.]

[hypnotherapy]

[ Magicman is just cackling, and that's audible even through the pillow. He may have cranked the volume up just a little.

HE ISN'T DEFEATED YET ]

[pushtheboundaries]

[and now cal grabs ANOTHER PILLOW and. throws it over his own head. FREAKING...]

Knock it off-!

[hypnotherapy]

Well, you're certainly energetic.

How's your burns? [ Right to the point. ]

[pushtheboundaries]

[fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Callaghan emits a noise of abject frustration, heaves a(n audibly painful) sigh, and gives up]

They'll be fine. I'm trying to rest.

[hint, hint.]

[hypnotherapy]

Did you get treatment for them? [ If you'd literally just updated him on your physical status he wouldn't have had to annoy you. He notices that pain, though.

Incredibly advanced technology seems a lot less exciting when it's bothering you, doesn't it. ]

I'll stop bothering you in a moment. I just wanted to check that you were doing all right.

[pushtheboundaries]

Yes.

[insomuch as he found someone to help him, and assist with cleaning and the rest.]

[hypnotherapy]

Good. [ He sounds a little relieved. He may not know Callaghan that well, but dude almost got murdered. That kind of impacts on the psyche a bit. ] I'm happy to hear that.

[ He'll continue to check up on him with what time he can spare, but for now, he'll consider this a good enough start. And off he goes. ]
