video | un: 520blazeit;
[The video clicks on to show a pasty blond standing in front of a store window looking a little disheveled, singed, and is that bird shit on his shoulder?? Either way, the video is zoomed the heck in on that awkward face.]
Okay. You wanna tell the class what we’ve found? [Comes Ace’s voice from behind the camera.] You wanna own up to what you’ve done?
[The accusation is met with confusion as Sabo looks at the phone, although not quite at the camera, and then back up at, presumably, Ace ] What are you on about? And why are you pointing that at me?
[There is the heaviest sigh, in response to that.] The– You know what I’m talking about. The thing. [There is a gentle wiggle of the camera towards the window they’re stopped in front of.]
What thing? [Sabo looks exasperated, but whether or not it’s just Ace, or the combination with the absolute state he’s in is up for debate. But he does seem to understand he’s being directed to something, so he turns his head and looks in the window, blinking as he looks at what’s on the other side of it.]
… I thought you said there weren’t any transponder snails here?
Apparently yours got out and got busy. [The camera moves forward as Ace does, swinging from Sabo down to the window where there is… a snail the size of a small dog, munching on some lettuce with a very human-like mouth and teeth, staring unblinking into the camera.] You’ve unleashed hell on us, dude.
[And after a moment more of unblinking eye contact, Ace shudders and turns off the video.]
closed action;
[After this mess of an invitation to take on a side job, Ace is ready and waiting at the edge of the water, a bag slung over his shoulder with “supplies”, cowboy hat on his head, and the waterproof masterwork that is his brand new cowboy boots.
Here’s hoping Sabo is impressed with his amazing get for their trip out to the big ship on the water. He had to give a guy twenty whole dollars to borrow this for the day.]
