⠀
⠀⸻

[ that doesn't make any sense but he's having too good of a time to realize that ]

redundant files- huh.

[ randomly giggling ]
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ bubble's funny quip means jax is already far too deep to go lay down ]

i- thought you said this was family friendly.

[ chuckling as he sits on the ground ]
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ sighing ]

well i'll figure out what's worth the effort later.

alright see yeah kid :)

[ leaves them with that mess ]
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ snickering about the room full of blank mannequins zooble inspired. he follows behind bloxi because he wants to see how they'll react. ]
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

anyway i don't think you'll want to be barricaded in there tonight :)
⠀⠀

// ouuuu im interested

⠀
⠀⸻

i was just asking. it could be completely unrelated to our conversation :)
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

DON'T TELL THEM THAT ???
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ grinning ]

⠀⠀

// ohh no i havent seen it o:

⠀
⠀⸻

[ he's checking his "nails" ]

sure kid. oh by the way. have you been in your room in the last uhhh hour? :)
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ has completely forgotten the accusations and is just excited for the pipe ]

[ he almost fumbles it but catches it and gives it a big puff ]

ack oof oh- yeah that's uhhh

[ coughing up bubbles as his eyes dilate ]

huh.
⠀⠀

// wait this is a banger tho

⠀
⠀⸻

[ grinning he shakes his head while rolling his eyes ]

⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ frantically looking around now ]

rea- READY FOR WHAT ?!
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ immediately doubles over in pain, damn she's got a strong arm for someone so tiny. ]

owww

[ he can't help but let out a laugh though. they both got each other pretty good there ]
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ reaching for it ]

well let me try.
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

eh. had to let off steam somehow i guess.

next time pick another person though, i've had my fill.

[ he chuckles and pats their face with the back of his hand. ]
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ a surprised smile grows across his face as he takes the key from them. ]

that's actually- a pretty good idea. they'd probably crap themself.
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ there's a lot of conflicting emotions racing through jax now. he forgot about the potential to get out- and what that would entail for him. how they'd all have each other and he'd be alone-]

ah. yeah. sure.

well- you can stop worrying. :)

i just wanted to scare the kid.
⠀⠀

// everyone: omg jax is trying to abstract
jax, to bubble: u should give us bongs :3

⠀
⠀⸻

[ shrugging he nods. ]

yeah i guess. i was probably worse. you've been pretty chill about this crap so far.
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

huh- wait IT IS ?!

you should give us bongs for the holiday :)
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ glancing back down he sees the hurt and fear in their little drawn on eyes. they're just a kid- practically flinching he looks away. ]

you're fine kid. happens to every newcomer...
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ materializing behind them ]

thought you were trying to quit?
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ he leans against his door frame and sighs, peering down at the kid. he blinks and looks away. ]

uhh yeah. it was a little weird i guess.

[ he's not really sure what to say. he doesn't get apologies often. ]

⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ who the hell is it this time- ]

[ creaks open his door just a tad ]

huh? what do you want, kid?
⠀⠀

⠀
⠀⸻

[ raising a brow and shaking his head. ]

huh? i'm not-

[ his face drops. staring at zooble with wide unblinking eyes. ]

i- you-

[ snapping back to his mask he's grinning with his eyes closed ]

whattt i wouldn't abstract, zooble. you're stuck with me forever.

[ peaking an eye open ]
