Yo! I'm not in right now. Leave me a message.


((OOC: Zell may show messages to Jim Hawkins. If you do not want Jim to see/know, then please let me know.))

[ The video switches on and Zell is met with Jim's face, shocked and nakedly showing all the hurt he was trying to hide with the layer of text between them.

He's at a loss for words, no answer coming to him except the vague unease that's taken up residence in his chest.

He wasn't careful enough, though, and Zell can probably make out the hospital stairwell around him. ]

[ The high school. It's a warren of rooms, many of them confusing and scary, and so easy to be set up as a trap.

Jim's eyes dance over the tablet, studying Zell's face for something - some tell of who he's talking to, what he's planning. ]


I'm coming back to the bunker.

Why?

[ Jim's voice is too sharp, raspy from what he'd been doing before he got the nerve to make this call. He clears his throat, and tries to sound more normal; it's not very successful. He's talking too fast. ]

We still need to see what we turned on. Just - go back and do that.

[ There's a long pause between messages, maybe long enough for Zell to think Jim's given up on the conversation entirely.

In the hospital, he's pacing loud enough to echo in the quiet halls, weighing the options and the fear until he comes up with something that might - might make it work.

The audio clicks back on. ]


You first.

No.

[ Though maybe that, too. ]

No, I want to see you.

On the tablet. Just for a minute.

[ Jim thinks about the answer. His first impulse is to lie, make sure whatever might be listening - or whatever might be talking to him - is fooled. But he has to pass through the school to get back to the bunker. ]

Part of the way. Going to take it slow. [ Maybe by then, whatever's wrong with him will have worn off. He still doesn't know what it is, and he doesn't really trust anyone else to tell him. ]

[ He's not really in the mood to enjoy it, but it catches his eyes anyway, almost by habit at this point. ]

I'll... tell you what area. At night.

-Okay. I'll do that.

[ Jim's not really sure what else to say. ]

-> text

[ There's a quiet sign on the other end before Jim says: ]

-Love you too.

[ He hangs up, then, but late that night Zell gets another message. ]

do you remember that night in the tent at andromeda's house?
