what are you up to
it's late

[slushfund]

[two buzzes, in his hand. sitting up in the massive bed, hiruma glances out the window at those city lights and smirks.]

There's shit all to do, so I'm doing shit all.

I can see the big, stupid gate from here, though.
It's something to look at.

[it's inky and dark, his own vague reflection in the glass, but the outline can be seen against midas' glow.]

[That's about what he's up to. Is there really shit-all to do in that giant tower, he wonders? Jesse is in the middle of tapping some more when an attachment downloads- he opens it and is treated to a view quite different from his own.]

Christ you're up high

[And there's Hiruma in the glass. A smile when he notices.]

[blowfish]

so gimme a virtual tour of the rest of yr room

[blowfish]

[he has a hit-send trigger finger.....]

You already seen mine

[slushfund]

[multiple grammatically incorrect texts greet him and he stifles a snicker against a fist — he should have known.]

Don't fucking freak out, this place is huge.

[WARNS HIM THAT IT'S??? TOO NICE...

a few attachments follow, mostly the bedroom and a peek into the ensuite washroom (wtf is that tub).]

It's all customizable like something out of a sci-fi.
I'm still trying to figure out how to turn half of this shit off.

[blowfish]

[Don't freak out, he says. Jesse bolts to sitting up and stares at his phone, zooming in here and there. It takes him a couple of minutes to write back because he's staring at everything.

customizable???]

oh my god
i wanna switch sides more than ever

[blowfish]

[INCOMING ATTACHMENT.]

[It's just Jesse's face and he's doing half of the Home Alone face with one hand on his cheek.]

[slushfund]

It's a lot of unnecessary space for one idiot.

[oh, the attachment comes a little after jesse's first text—

oh.

*saves it*]

[slushfund]

I didn't get the pic, you must be sending it wrong.

[kekekekekekeke.]

[blowfish]

what? no way

[INCOMING...giving his phone the middle finger in a mirror.]

[slushfund]

[just collecting these for posterity.]

Yeah way???
Mine's fine, maybe they gypped you.
Try one more time.

[blowfish]

[...starting to catch on maybe.]

any ideas about what i should try next

[slushfund]

[he's totally catching on...]

A few.
These things shouldn't be that difficult to fix.

What happened to that big imagination of yours?

[blowfish]

it's not working so i guess i could do anything right

[slushfund]

Well said.
I wouldn't see a damn thing.
Too bad...

[blowfish]

[eating ice cream out of the carton...fuck yeah.]

[slushfund]

[yeah, he was 10000000% fooled. it takes him a moment of blinking before

THE SCOWL.]

Ice cream is vile.
Your teeth will rot and your stomach lining will turn to mush.
Don't say I did not warn you.

[blowfish]

Hey you're seeing them now!
cool

[blowfish]

you think i give a shit after living on canned food for that long?
i'll eat the whole thing

[slushfund]

What a dirty trick.

[that was hot.]

But you go a year without lactose and eat a litre of it...
You're going to have the worst shit cramps of your life in about three hours.
┐(￣ー￣)┌

[blowfish]

i'll take a video of it for you

[slushfund]

2 spoons, 1 doofus.

What are YOU doing up at this hour, anyway?
Besides eating a tub of ice cream while you watch rom-coms?

[blowfish]

[ahahaha that reference makes him snort in real time]

Couldn't sleep
I figured you would probably be awake since you're a total loser

[slushfund]

You just called yourself a loser, loser.

[hiruma knows jesse is lonely, it's typed as plain as day. if he could get there at this time, he would, but until those rules are clear:]

So tell me a tale, put me to sleep.
