[ Before Peter can even speak, Clever Girl lets out a small dino bark and a hiss and this is quickly followed by barking from Anne's dog. There's a scuttling sound as Clever Girl runs to Peter, Clever Girl promptly being picked up with Peter heard going "You have got to stop trying to sleep on Hulks bed. You have your own." before he addresses the voicemail he's trying to leave a message on. ]

Sorry about that. Hi, Jack. It's Peter. I just wanted to call to see how you're settling in and now the new voice codes are working for you. Gimme a call back, okay?

[ Another barking sound from Clever Girl and a soft rumble that Peter hopes is some manner of happy sound from the microraptor; ]

Later!

[Okay, this? This he understands a lot faster than the rest, because he's got telephones back home, so returning the call isn't a problem.]

Hey, pally! Jack here--I'm doin' great, thanks fer askin'. Got me a swell job woikin' fer dis lady dat sells food outta a damn automobile, if you can believe dat noise. Got me a nice place ta sleep, too.

[The tiniest hesitation.]

Yes, to the dog. No to the cat. My guardian let me keep one of the microraptors. Her name is Clever Girl.

Charlie's truck? I've been. She gives a free meal to newcomers. I didn't meet her, it was one of her employees, but the food was awesome.

I'm at the labs, working on something my girlfriend gave me, but after I'm done here we can totally meet up and do whatever. Talk about whatever.

...[ wait... ]

Is there a particular girl you wanted to talk about?

Re: audio:

[He knows her name, but Peter doesn't need to know that...]
