53 - Action/Phone

[The day after this delightful exchange, Pokey is understandably kind of on edge. And, being Pokey, he deals with that as well as one could expect.

Which is to say, extraordinarily poorly.]

Action - 502 Ricardo
[Hey not!family. Today you'll find Pokey searching and rummaging through every square inch in and around outside the house. And I mean every square inch. He is, quite paranoidly, looking in every cupboard, out every window, in every closet, and pretty much going everywhere he can in the house, searching. Whatever he's searching for, he doesn't seem particularly content with the results.

Which is why he's also searching around everywhere outside.

Over. And over. And over again. Just going over everything repeatedly, as if expecting something to pop out at him each time or something different to happen.]

So. Alright.

Let's say you have pretty ample suspicion that someone is spying on and/or stalking you. Anyone got any good ideas on, you know, how to avoid it or catch the guy doing it? Like, you've never seen the person stalking you before for certain, but you know they're there?

I mean. Not that I have a problem. It's just kind of a question of interest.

Phone - Filtered to Slugger

The jerkwad knows my name and where I live and who I know.








Sorry.

Hey. Hey squirt. I really, really need you to answer this if you here me.

I need to know. Are you the only non-drone in your house?

Enlightenment doesn't come cheap bro, but I'll see what I can do. Maybe I've got a bit left to spare in an old pant leg.

Your charity and altruism is an inspiration to us all. I can't imagine where we'd be without you.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

I'm just doing what I can.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

But is that ever enough?

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Probably not.

[A slight chuckle. It's pretty bitter sounding, for a 12-13 year old.]

Ain't that always the way?

[timetables.livejournal.com]

[ they are the most cynical little kids seriously. ]

Life's a bitch.

[Hey, they've got some reasons to be. Mostly.]

And then you die.

Again and again, far as this place is concerned.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

I wonder how life insurance works here.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Dunno.

If it works like it does anywhere sane, there could be some pretty happy, rich drones here I guess.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

I should take out some policies. I could make a killing.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Not a bad con.

If. You know.

Money wasn't worth bumpkiss here.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

...well damn.

Back to the drawing board.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Hey I give you like an A for effort.

And I totally mean that non-condescendingly.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Greatly appreciated.

And I totally mean that ironically.
