MAY 8

[hacker]

i'm okay. seriously it's nothing i just took a spill in the courtyard that's all

my birthday all over again

[pajarita]

she's beauty, she's grace

belated gift in the form of lesbians

[hacker]

i don't know if i should be impressed or supremely disappointed that beauty pageants survived the nuclear winter that pushed humanity into space

that's always all i want

[pajarita]

it didn't, but the song did
not a lot of time for makeup, as proven by the fact that i hadn't seen a liquid eyeliner until here

i know this about you

[hacker]

remind me once i can raise my hands above my shoulders again and i'll show you how to do winged tips

you done well

[pajarita]

so that's one hell of a spill you took, what did you do?
try to climb the wall with a brace on?

[hacker]

doesn't matter it'll heal

[ which is 100% the text equivalent of an imploring raven, asking her to protect herself with ignorance. any lie skye has to tell just drags raven into the mess she's made of her life. ]

[pajarita]

uh huh
well

i'm out of painkillers, but if you're in need of a k.o. punch

[hacker]

thanks but i got the k.o. covered
how are you doing? i mean the dining hall still isnt open so

[pajarita]

whenever i'm hungry, i stare at my burns for a long time until the pain comes back and i don't think about the hunger

and i'm trying to keep busy
do you want a pair of dice?

[hacker]

didn't that monopoly game someone found in their suitcase need dice?

[pajarita]

that's why i made the first pair
it's been a productive recovery

[hacker]

look at you, regular worker bee
sure thing. how are you making them?

[pajarita]

i deserve a medal for pulling nails out from under my skin and repurposing them to get shelves up in the infirmary
then again, don't we all derserve medals?

creatively - chair legs and a knife. it's patient work

[hacker]

i wouldn't advertise those carving skills if i was you
there are a lot of people locked in here with us who'd do a lot of bad to get their hands on a knife strong enough and sharp enough to carve with.

[pajarita]

so i'm just telling you
so far it's you, steve and clarke who know - if word go out, i'll know who's NOT getting dice

trust me, i've got other skills they'd love to hear about and 'm not advertising those

[hacker]

relax
i know how to keep a secret.

[ sitcom audience laughter .mp3 ]

just be careful. if something happened right now i don't know if i could do anything to help

[pajarita]

i figured that

i'll be careful, careful's my second middle name
the first one's reckless

jokes aside, skye
tell me what i can do for you, okay?

[hacker]

don't die

[ it sounds like a basic expectation but

trip is here now

to remind her that it's not something to take for granted. ]

steer clear of the third floor as much as you can, and let me know if you find a way to get your hands on a spare tablet. i have a really bad idea

[pajarita]

there goes THAT saturday night plan

how bad of an idea?
share

[hacker]

our own surveillance

[pajarita]

ha
so

i might've
thought about that one before

[hacker]

how'd you do it without dismantling a tablet for the mic & camera?
wait
what went wrong?

[pajarita]

nah, that's about the sum of it
dismantle tablets and set them up

nothing went wrong, i just haven't done it

[hacker]

people have been disappearing; their tablets have to be going somewhere.
removing the mic/camera and wiring it to feed a/v to one of our screens would be cake.
maybe it could even get us a glimpse of the staff
