[attached are two photos. the first is a mid-parkour-blur action shot of someone bounding up to jinx's treehouse. the second is a selfie that wrench should recognize - he's in it along with a super enthusiastic blue braided menace. (he's in both of them and so what if it looks a little stalker-y) vi likes to sit on the roof of her building and that's got a very clear view of that treehouse. maybe she takes photos all the time. (she doesn't.)]
anything i should be worried about or that you should be worried about
[maybe this is who jinx is with just now. maybe there's nothing to worry about at all.]
[if she weren't so worried it'd be even funnier - it's kind of sweet, really. jinx needs friends. but she needs to have not run off at the first sign of trouble even more.]
if i were trying to intimidate u i wouldve tracked u down and wed be doing this face to face or fist to face if shit got real
how tf could i intimidate u over text i could be ten years old ffs
shes my fuckin baby sister and ur the last person i know saw her cause she sent me that selfie
[ Whoa, few things they need to talk about. Particularly the whole him being her new thing, thing. after the more important thing of finding her, thing. He has a further concern as to why Jinx going missing is a concern. She's a teenager. Is she an unstable and dangerous teenager or was Vi overly protective? Cause, yanno. He can see both being true. ]
she mentioned a trip. we didn't dwell on it. that's all i know. she was working on fishbones during the first half, though. if that means anything.
i have questions, or just things to talk to you about, but let's find her first. mr. bananas took a liking to my own omen. i'll send him out, he can get into shit. let me know how else I can help. two eyes are better than one and all that.
[definitely a few things. maybe more than a few. he's a little right on both counts, though jinx has certainly made efforts to listen to reason, and vi has pulled back on constantly monitoring her sister. the blood bond has filled in a few gaps, but she gets it, mostly.]
yeah shes got this thing where she needs space i get it so do i a lot of ppl need space when theyre figuring shit out but now i feel worse about the whole thing bc if shes alone thats also bad
[fishbones is. kind of? company?? ok, well no, fishbones is jinx but his presence isn't the best of signs, even if his takes are often cheerful.]
means she might be in a bad headspace or maybe she just wants to shoot shit where you can really shoot shit
youve got questions huh? ok sure this oughta be good bananas likes almost everyone but u can tell a lot from a persons omen i think thats another point in ur favor anonymask
thats eight eyes if we use our omens im doubling back toward the outpost again but what if shes further out than that
leave it to jinx to mention a trip and not say where id say she just wants to watch me run around like a dumbass but i dont think so
Oh. Yeah, well yanno. Been putting shit together over here. Trying to figure out how to. uh, anything. what with science being wildly different from what i'm used to and all.
[ he should say something? he should say something, right? Can't just ignore that sentence about last month or really any time of anything if they're being fucking honest. ] hell of a month though, huh?
[ there is a really long pause. he wants to say 'i have some idea' but he can't, so he doesn't. he wants to offer going out and just making a mess of things but he can't, so he doesn't. he wants to keep pretending that he's just been 'working' but he hasn't, and its hard to keep up...it's hard to keep up Wrench when there's nothing to Wrench. ]
hey. so. i was really on a roll actually with something. maybe we can chat later. maybe i can check in later?
( she is trying to have a good saturday but it's been difficult to have day out as if nothing happened. to pretend she hadn't died and her whole world is normal. but her mind is so... tilted and she could had sworn there was something following her and the girl on her way home. it looked like a bear. but. there's no way. she killed it for sure, didn't she?
anyway.
the girl jinx brought home is currently in her bathroom; showering and getting ready for "bed". in the meantime, jinx pulls out her omni and texts him -- under the influence. )
hey uncle. this girls been in my shower forever ha ha. think i might run out.
[ Heโ he didn't expect her to text, he should have texted, he should have found her. It's just. He doesn't emotions. He does emotions, okay. He emotions a lot but has no fucking idea how to handle them unless they're certain emotions. Mostly anger. Everything else he processes by acting like a fool or fucking disappearing. Obviously he did the latter this time.
And. Well, and her. She called him uncle. Which drove home a thousand times what he first felt. The immediate thing that just fucked him right up and the thing he avoids talking about, vehemently, with anyone who pries and manages to get anything from him. Out of fucking nowhere, stunned over her lifelessness, all he could think of was how she could have been his child. He'd never seen someone so young die right before him. He's seen death, he's been the one that's dealt it but they were all similar age ranges. Jinx, Jinx was young. Twenty some odd years younger than him kind of young.
He'd thought about it but he never brought it up. Never. Not once. He never told Zane he'd thought about it. Cause he didn't... cause he didn't fucking love Zane. Not the way he loved Marcus. But here he fucking was, wasn't he? Here he fucking was. ]
gays, amiright ๐ run out?
[ Pretend nothing fucking happened. Just keep swimmin'. ]
its ok. u can be drunk. im drunk too. drunkies family. idk um. maybe 48mins ok w/ me, makes sense. i have long hair. her hair is short and stuff. shouldnt take too long.
