Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

[This text comes quite a bit late, after Steve's had some time to actually exchange some words with Ellie.]

I like her.

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

good

what did she say

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

[Excuse you, trying to get information out of him like a pro.]

She asked if I was a superhero.

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

no wonder you like her

[That was the point of this, after all. Get intel on the new warden. Maybe give her some idea what to expect. Of course he wants to know.]

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

[Yeah, yeah.]

I mean, I'm not anymore.

[But fine:] She says she'll try the name, see if it's okay. But she'll go back to something else if it's not.

She's young, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I don't know what the other guy she's got to look after is like, but hopefully he won't give her trouble, either.

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

if he does i can always hit him

[This may or may not be a joke. Even he's not sure.]

ill go talk to her now

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

Probably the best option.

[This might be Steve condoning that.]

Okay. Good luck.

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

[And maybe two hours later...]

she gave me a book full of puns

rogers theyre so dumb

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

[Steve maybe snorts out loud at reading this.]

You'd better tell me one so I can judge for myself.

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

a book just fell on my head

i only have my shelf to blame

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

I don't know, that seems pretty solid to me.

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

shut up rogers

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

Just giving my honest opinion.

[And also being terrible.]

Besides. That's the beauty of texting. I didn't actually say a thing.

[Still terrible.]

Re: Text

[worthallthis]

[Yes, very terrible. And the Asset's run out of quips to toss back at him. So, as punishment for being awful, he just doesn't respond again.]

Re: Text

[punched_hitler]

[That's okay, Steve is still treasuring this conversation forever.]
