ic inbox!

[secundus]

 

[ it's just the basic voicemail message, complete with the gentle female automated operator telling you you've reached the inbox of—awkward pause, jason's voice saying his own name—and that he's unavailable at the moment. leave a message after the beep. ]

Comments

4/5; shortly after the network post.

[drunkenfist]

[ cas told her to check in with all her friends, so after making sure everyone in her apartment was caught up on the news, she starts with everyone else. ]

hey jay
idk if youre awake
rly kinda hope youre not
sleepin away with pleasant dreams & w/e
but if u ARE awake
i just wanted to
check in
ok lemme know when you can
xoxo

[ jfksdf quickly backspaces that last part because this is not the time for that. ]

[secundus]

i'm a light sleeper

what's up?

[ in truth, he's just been awake, concerned, trying to piece together what the hell is going on with his roommate—it's hard not to care about someone's well-being when they live with you, even when said roommate is ever-wonderful, self-sufficient dick grayson. ]

[drunkenfist]

[ oh.

welp. ]

check the network

[ she's so concerned about what's going on there that she hasn't even stopped to think about okita and the strange way he's been acting. it'll all come together soon enough. ]

[secundus]

that escalated quickly

[ but it's... it's dick, right? it can't be dick, but it is, and batman doesn't do these kinds of things. jason doesn't post into the network for fear of being wrong (the voice was hard to hear, maybe he's just projecting), but even then, it's more like—

what if he's right? ]

[drunkenfist]

you pick that up @ memes r us?

[ heh.




no but seriously, all joking aside, roxy can't try and figure out who it is in that post that is, for lack of a better word, happy that this is going down. ]

im p sure thats krios in that post
ive got a bad feeling that things are gonna get a helluva lot worse from here
so make sure youre safe ok

[secundus]

[ there's an odd feeling in his chest at the idea it could have been dick's hand striking down a god. something like victory, nausea further down, and the combination of the two makes it hard to stay on top of his witticisms. ]

bad feelings abound where i'm from

i've handled worse

[drunkenfist]

cant say im happy to hear that
but i also kind of am?
i mean u gotta put those muscles to use somehow right
just wish it didnt have to be that way
idk what im saying its late

[ and she's juggling a few things at the moment, so she's also not quite doing so well at keeping on top of her own brand of humor. ]

dont think ill be getting any sleep tonight

[notlikeanyone]

Dick's been compromised.

[secundus]

[ it's a bad idea to offer her solace with him, and an equally bad idea to offer to keep her company over there. he doesn't want to seem distant, though, so he'll just—make conversation. might as well. ]

me neither

do you think these devices have angry birds installed?

[secundus]

no shit

[drunkenfist]

[ conversation's good! conversation she can do until castiel kicks her ass into going down to the fire temple.

part of her wonders if she should invite him along because having two strong guys to help out would be better, but she also doesn't want to put anyone in undue danger. then again... ]

omfg no i cant believe u
fuck angry birds
that games the most frustrating thing evar
robot unicorn attacks wheres its at

[notlikeanyone]

I mean Trigon level compromised.

There's room for you here.

[secundus]

[ he... doesn't want to accept tim's help, it's a pride thing, a stupid pride thing but a pride thing nevertheless—and yet, he knows he would only be putting himself in unnecessary danger if he stuck around. who knows what dick might do in this state? ]

if you wanted to have a sleepover with me you could have just asked like a normal person

[notlikeanyone]

[fjghfd Jason just accept it already.]

Okay, do you want to have a sleepover so Dick doesn't indoctrinate you into a cult or something in your sleep?

[secundus]

oh please roxy

robot unicorn attack is stuck in that period of culturally significant phenomena where no one really plays it anymore and everyone is too embarrassed to admit they hopped on the bandwagon

#realtalk

[ yeah he just hashtagged in a text message. he misses twitter. ]

[secundus]

much better!

yes i do

because i kind of enjoy my mental autonomy inasmuch as a crazy guy like yours truly has control over his facilities

1/2

[drunkenfist]

[ LMFAO STARING AT THIS TEXT LIKE 6_6 ]

[drunkenfist]

this from the guy who just
fuckin hashtagged me
this isnt twitter bro
& its not that rolling site either
topplr?
idk something like that
you wanna talk bout culturally significant shit thats become an embarrassment.........

[ at least from her perspective, 400 years in the future. unless you're walking through a dreambubble, of course. ]

[notlikeanyone]

Okay.

See you at mine then. I'll stock up on hot dogs.

[THAT'S NOT A EUPHEMISM he just knows Jason likes chilli dogs okay. And he's relieved and doesn't know how to say it.]

[secundus]

WILL you now

[ he knows it's not a euphemism, but it's partially revenge for tim plucking his words and twisting them before—of course he remembers that. of course. he has to set the world right somehow. ]

[secundus]

[ EXCUSE YOU ROXY ]

it's so not embarrassing

everyone does it

[ "everyone" being small teenage girls who have no sense of internet social grace. exactly jason's peer group. ]

[drunkenfist]

[ you're excused. ]

yeah ok sure they do
they bein 12 year old girls
#thetruth #youcanthandleit

[ why is it so easy to joke around with him when it seems like this world is ready to dissolve around them? roxy's not gonna take it for granted though; she appreciates this, as it will help her keep her wits about her later. ]

[notlikeanyone]

[fjgfkdsh Jason.]

Not like that - shut up

[secundus]

sometimes you just put yourself in these positions and i can't help it

[secundus]
