I'll get to text?!

[ what the FUCK is texting ]

[agleam]

If we get phones, yeah! I could totally show you.

[since he sounded so excited he's assuming he knows what texting is somehow]

[preowned]

Cool... I hope we get them...

[ a pause ]

We probably won't now.

[agleam]

You're thinking I jinxed it, aren't you?

[preowned]

I am, yes.

[ he'll just readily admit to it ]

[agleam]

...You know, normally I would say that's not a thing, but whoever brought us here might be the type that wouldn't give us something because they heard someone might enjoy it?

[so perhaps he has a point...]

[preowned]

I definitely expect that to happen.

Perhaps we can trick them...

[agleam]

If you've got any ideas, I'm all ears.

[he pauses and then says loudly, up at the ceiling:]

If you're listening, by the way, I still hate you.

[preowned]

[ in a very cheerful, energetic tone, ]

Yeah! We hate you!

[agleam]

[he gives him a thumbs up.]

I decided I'm going to do that at least once every day because it makes me feel marginally better and they should continue to have to know about it.

[preowned]

I'll make sure to do it too, just so they don't ever believe they are safe.

[agleam]

I thought about leaving notes around now that we had paper, too, but I'm not sure they'd be able to see those.

[preowned]

They might not...

[ in a hushed tone ]

Maybe they can't read.

[agleam]

[echoing the tone:]

Ohhhh. That would make sense.

[how]

[preowned]

[ a nod ]

It could be quite useful later.

[agleam]

[!!]

We can pass notes.

[preowned]

[ HE NODS!! this is a perfect plan. ]

We could even come up with a code... just for fun.

[agleam]

Ooh...

[perking up a little]

Any ideas?

[preowned]

Hm... what is it when you use numbers to mean letters? Or pictures?

[agleam]

[cheerfully:]

No idea, but it sounds cool!

[preowned]

We'll figure it out! We can make it up as we go.

[ this is going to be a stupid code ]

[agleam]

We - should probably pick something and stick to it so we don't confuse ourselves, but we can start by making it up, yeah!

[preowned]

Oh. Yeah. Good point.

[agleam]

We could mix it up a little, though. Like, instead doing a code where each letter gets shifted by a certain amount, like A turning into C or D turning into F... We could make it random, as long as one letter corresponded to one other. Like, if we see an N, that actually means X, or if we see a C, that actually means U.

[nerd]

[preowned]

Yeah!

[ yeah!

he just agrees immediately, while also making the decision that rupert will figure that part out because it sounds too complicated. ]

It'll be foolproof.
