Okay, I admit I'm not the best when it comes to technology but I'm seriously running out of patience here! All I want to do is text someone! I was able to text them before but then I changed their name in my phone and now I can't AND IT'S BAD ENOUGH THAT I CAN'T GET NEAR CERTAIN PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THESE BRANDS BUT IF I CAN'T TEXT SOMEONE NOW EXPLODING PRISONS ARE GONNA BE THE LEAST OF THEIR WORRIES.
[Darin takes a deep, steadying breath. Normally, the person he would go to for tech support is Zelda. A person he cannot presently go anywhere near. So now he's the network's problem.]
Look. Okay. I just. I need someone to look at my contacts and tell me if I screwed something up. Because I don't know what I did. I just changed one contact. I change contact names all the time! All the time!
LOOK. HERE.

CAN ANYONE SEE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE I JUST WANT TO TEXT SOMEONE AND EVERY TEXT I [Sounds of fingers furiously tapping] TRY [More tapping] I GET [TAPPING]

"MESSAGE CANNOT BE DELIVERED" MY BRIGHT, BLUE ASS!!! WHO THE HELL MADE THESE PIECES OF—

( she clicks her tongue. )
Missed opportunity to use a photo of my tits. Or are you still frightened of them?

Promise that the girls won't hurt you.

Then bam, red titty in your face.
But if you cry, I take a photo.
no subject
And I'm not gonna cry! Why the hell would I cry?! They're probably fantastic!
no subject
( probably? )
no subject
I'm sure they're pretty great?
[Probably!]
no subject
( there's a clear tone that she's joking, voice taking on a dramatic turn. )
no subject
[But he's also an idiot.]
[And is prone to escalating.]
Oh come on! We're totally friends! I'm just— look! They're awesome, alright! Impeccable! The second best pair I've ever seen!
no subject
( oh stop, he's too much fun. )
I couldn't quite hear you. Could you tell me louder?
no subject
no subject
( cheering. )
And who is the first?! Tell me who you think has the best tits!
1/2
[But as opposed to belting out a name, he exhales and takes steadying breath.]
2/2
Heh, I see what you're doing. You're trying to get me to say a specific name aren't you?? I can see through your little trick. I'm not gonna fall for it this time! Not like when I said that Zelda having a perfect ass was a truth of the universe!
Sorry, Karlach! Try again~!
zelda is going to delete her account
( she nods despite the fact no one can see it. )
So Zelda doesn't have the best tits according to you? Too small? Not your shape?
Or kill Darin. Or both.

Karlach, really; perhaps you ought to take it easy on the poor boy. At this rate, you're going to kill the young man, and then no one will be happy, including you.
[That he's managed to say all of that with a straight face is incredible, because he's absolutely been laughing while listening along, against his better judgement.]
no, gale. run.
he's playing a dangerous game with his own life
If Karlach were anyone but who she is, this would most certainly be a trap. It likely still is, but a far less malicious sort, or so he would hope.]
I feel I ought to take extreme caution in how I answer this. Clearly, he's been blinded by the fact that his affections are decidedly elsewhere.
[He's glad she can't see how red his face has to be at the moment, but she can probably hear it at this point.]
♥
What I'm hearing is you think mine are the best.
( playfully. )
Always knew you were a man of taste.
