[ March's voicemail message will be the standard sort for a while, and expect replies from him to be slow/strange as he tries to understand this Modern Age.

[March's silence is filled with the noise of papers being flipped, clearly looking up something before...]
Lives alone. Only known relatives are estranged and on the other side of the country. No religious affiliation. No club memberships. Doesn't even have a library card. [It's almost like there was a hope this would happen when their front desk problem was hired or something!] He's been with us less than a month. Hardly enough time to be indispensable. I'd say he isn't needed anywhere, dear.
[James March's most impressive feat ever: getting his employees to detail all this creepy information on paper. He should be teaching business school classes.
Speaking of creepy, it's very clear that Countess takes the crown for creepy chuckles.]
Oh, but that's where you're wrong, James. He's needed at dinner. Surely you'd like to come and do the honors.
But of course. His replacement won't be joining us until after the wedding. Sally can man the desk until then, she does love telling people where they can and can't be.
[Well, he would probably know if it was suffocation.]
How can I refuse that? [Answer: by not refusing it and also just not showing up, although she can't help but be tempted by a nice glass of blood and triple sec.] I'll let you know once I've finalized arrangements with Toby.
Splendid! [If she never shows up, oh well. He's spent decades pining after her, what's a few nights stuck behind a bar?] I'll see you this evening, dearest. Our former front desk worker is scheduled off just before sundown.
[Because that sounds more romantic than a solid time, and he's all about romance.]
[If it was a slow night he could murder the only other person in the room tbh fresh is best]
I haven't tried! Fitting, you being the one to put the idea out there. [Hopefully they'll never argue and it ends up being used for Bad Purposes; gonna be in the dog house forever.] We'll see either way. Together.

[MOB, money over blood, bitches.]

Gladly, dearest. Shall we let him finish his shift before we invite him to dinner?
