Hey, this is Isaac. Leave a message, I guess.

[feathery]

you never get to give me shit for skipping my last three birthdays or however many its been at this point ever again
but yeah nanako asked me for a work reference
thats pretty dodgy right

[frigidaire]

i think you mean illegal.
but i dunno i wouldnt stop her.
i wouldn't want to fight her.
she'd win.

[feathery]

i told her to run a lemonade stand instead
i guess her brother is here or something though
so
i dont know
she said she asked him for a reference too

[frigidaire]

yeah her brother is here somewhere.
and apparently is ok with all of it.
he just lets her wander off.
lemonade stand was the best idea you had?
on a space station?

[feathery]

and what brilliant idea would you have given a seven year old with limited resources
like even fewer than usual seeing how all our bank accounts are still frozen

[frigidaire]

yeah you have a point. i got nothing.
i still think she could take over the world though.
she probably owns her own company on the station by now.
look what you've done.

[feathery]

im looking out for her future as a ruthless business tycoon
if im supposed to have regrets about it you came to the wrong capitalist
anyway
so yeah
the muffinut is cool and all but how about we get some real food

[frigidaire]

yeah real food sounds good.
looks like they have more options here too.
should i grab your birdseed on my way out?

[feathery]

fu
i was gonna offer to pay but youre on your own now in the burrito wilds
(thats where were going in case you couldnt figure it out)
(to get burritos)

[frigidaire]

whoa no its my birthday i dont pay
but burritos sound good. have you had them before
its not some weird alien meat is it

[feathery]

when is it not weird alien meat

[frigidaire]

i guess that's true.
i dont even remember what real beef tastes like.
but yeah lets get burriots. maybe two.

[feathery]

only two
maybe you should look into stocking up for the future
do you think freeze dried burritos exist
or whatever theyre serving in space these days i never kept track

[frigidaire]

i probably will if the burritos are good.
freeze the stuffing and make shitty burritos
with 'wheat substitute'.
we need to find a good cook.

[feathery]

id trade one of the superfluous communications officers for a cook

[Davesprite, that is rude.]

dont know why anyone decided we need three of them

[frigidaire]

i didn't know we had communications officers.
but yeah we need a good cook. can we trade?

[ the truth is just rude, then. ]

arent you in charge of that or something.
captain.

[feathery]

technically im a communications officer
id be offended if i cared more so count yourself lucky
captains dont got anything to do with who gets assigned where though
and i mean even if i did
would you want to be the guy who tells nagisa or daneel they got to pack up and jump ship
especially nagisa
crushing the optimism of a preteen isnt high on my to do list

[ITT: Davesprite has no idea how old Nagisa actually is, but she sure is short.]

[frigidaire]

yeah its weird when people cry
should probably just kick you out instead.
birds dont cry, right?

[ he's kidding, he swears! ]

i guess you can stay for now though.

[feathery]

wow magnanimous
especially from the wolfman we hired as extra security despite the lack of horseshit or non horseshit to secure
to be honest im pretty sure i know who would get voted off the wonderisland in this scenario and its not me

[feathery]

p.s. doves cry

[frigidaire]

too bad you're a mangey crow or something.
or maybe you're a pigeon with trachea problems.
all that squawking.
can we get burritos now or what?

[feathery]

waiting on you dude
so hurry up and grab your scarf or whatever it is you think makes you presentable to the great outdoors and get your ass over here

[frigidaire]

dont hate on my scarf.
its important. i might wear both of my scarves.
see you in a few.
