❝Yoooo! Ain't here right now, which means I'm probably sleeping, eating, doing something I can't mention out loud, or something really awesome and attention-consuming, but whichever it is, I'm not here right now! Wait, I already said that. So yeah, do what you gotta do, which I guess is—❞

voice; evening!

[coastal]

[She doesn't mean.... to call Rhys at all.....

But she sorted out the people that she knows on her phone device and his name is probably really close to someone else that she was looking to call and so when he picks up, she's not going to realize who she's yelling at?!]

-- What are you doing this evening?!

[Oh.]

action; oh.... we had the same idea to pester jan i see....

[discard]

[HI RHYS what are you doing on this fine day.

Hopefully nothing too important because Leon is still trying to get rid of his mask, which means that at some point, he's just totally flinging it in frustration and hope that that will somehow work.

Heads up.]

voice;

[echoistic]

[... Whoa, is this girl actually calling him??? He will commemorate this day.]

Uh... you askin' 'cause you actually wanna know, or 'cause you wanna confirm that I'm not doing something that'll potentially get me killed?

action; o-oh dokidoki

[echoistic]

[On the down side, Rhys can't see it coming. On the bright side, he can never really see anything coming, which has made him rather adept at avoiding sudden attacks (?), so.

He'll be ducking with a—]

Whoa!

[... and if this is who he thinks it is (the body shape is familiar, at least...), then he'll be turning towards him with a hurt look.]

C'mon, dude! I know I ain't exactly your favourite person, but that's a little harsh, don't you think?

[He says as he waves his own mask around. It's dripping what he suspects to be blood, since if he squints hard, he can see that the liquid is red, and red liquid is... probably blood... but who even knows because he can't smell anything!!]

[discard]

[Unfortunately for Leon, the mask only clatters to the ground for a brief moment. A second later it's right back in his hand, much to his aggravation.]

You--

[Oh.

He didn't even know Rhys was there.]

You were just in my way, that's all.

[It's not like he was aiming for you or anything!]

voice; [1/???]

[coastal]

[wait that voice]

[coastal]

Wait, you're not--

[NO]

[coastal]

-- hold on, are you doing something dangerous?!

[coastal]

I told you not to do that either, you idiot!!

done

[coastal]

-- Not that I'm worried or I care or anything, I just-

.... You're not who I wanted to talk to anyway but if you're doing something stupid, stop it!

[nice]

[echoistic]

[She's totally worried about him. That's enough to make up for this weirdass mask he's stuck with!]

Oh, so you mean I shouldn't jump off of this building?

[echoistic]

In the middle of what? Your really sad attempt at playing catch by yourself?

[coastal]

Don't you dare!!

[why does she believe him]

[discard]

[why you gotta be like that.]

Shut up. You don't know anything.

[...]

It was in the way, and I was trying to get rid of it. That's all.

[echoistic]

[... lili ur too precious]

Are you worried? Are you worried?

[echoistic]

Y'know, if you wanna play catch, I'm here for you! You don't have to play by yourself!

[did you say something, leon...]

[coastal]

[Fight her.]

N-No I--

Are you tricking me?!

[wait what if he's actually on a building, what if she just convinced him to jump except instead of any sort of apology and actually admitting she's worried what comes out of her mouth is]

Idiot!!

[discard]

If you want it, take it. It isn't as though I want it.

[KEEP THE MASK, RHYS.... why would he ever want to play a game with you though, really.]

[echoistic]

Right now? Yep, my feet are firmly planted on the ground. If it'll make you feel better, though, I can go scale a building so that I'm actually telling the truth!

[echoistic]

... No thanks, dude. I've already got my own weirdass mask! See?

[Waving said mask around!]

We're mask buddies!

[coastal]

[She feels dizzy.]

You're... You're the absolute worst. Don't you dare...!

[echoistic]

[In the background, there may or may not be a faint whizzing noise.]

Too late! I'm already doing it!

[coastal]

[Wait. No. She hears that noise and there's something in her that just can't handle.

Sharply:]

Rhys.

Stop it...! Stop toying with me!

[discard]

[... wh...y....]

... Are you an idiot? Why are you so needlessly cheerful over this?

[echoistic]

Is there a point in being anything but?
