un: gorgug, text ( a day into the mission )

[tinflower]

Hey. What's everyone found out about the mission?

Do we want to share what jobs we have and if we need anything? I'm working engineering in Sprawl. How are people in Dreg? I heard it's bad?

[ ooc: An info-sharing post, if people would like that! It can be used throughout different points of the mission, and maybe if people have made network posts on their toplevel posts, they can link them in here, w/e w/e! Please feel free to tag inside freely. ]

[ Oh? A reward? What would he like once they're back? ...

...


It takes Gorgug a minute, but: ]

i want to eat ice cream covered in marshmallows and sauce with you and riz on a couch and we're sharing a blanket

[ He has simple desires. ]

[maximumlegend]

[ Very simple desires.

But.. you know what, that's okay, actually. It's something Fabian can easily make happen. The only difficult thing between this and that end result is getting off this damn train, honestly. ]

that is going to have to be a big blanket

[ He's teasing Gorgug. Just a little bit.

Who knows if that's going to land though, considering it is Gorgug, and this is text with no tone indicator whatsoever.. ]

[tinflower]

the bigger the better

[ Truly, it doesn't land... but Gorgug is happy thinking about it, if just for now. It's a nice thought to have while on the train, trying to figure out a mystery that-- he's definitely not the person to be figuring it. ]

we need a pint of ice cream each

[ Just like on TV, Fabian! ]

[maximumlegend]

[ Come on, Gorgug. It's so hard to tease you when you're being so utterly sincere about all this! You'll make Fabian feel like a bad guy!

On the other hand, he is kind of glad that Gorgug probably feels more content talking about this than about all the dumb train stuff that Fabian could ramble on and vent about for three hours on end. ]

aye aye captain

is that all?
any more wishes while we're at it?

[tinflower]

more?

[ Wow, is it his birthday?? Unless this is actually a test where he needs to say the right thing eventually, or Fabian gets mad. The thought does cross Gorgug's mind, but the two might actually line up: what Fabian wants, and what Gorgug wants. ]

a kiss

captains deserve a kiss

[ If he gets to be captain, too. ]

[maximumlegend]

i thought you would never ask

[ Just for that he'll let you be captain for once, Gorgug.

In fact, Fabian is even bold enough to send a: ]

;)

[ Even though it's rare for Fabian to send emojis! Look, he just thought Gorgug would never get to something that's very high up on Fabian's list of stuff to do once they get out of this mess, really. ]

[tinflower]

[ Ugghhh, why do they have to be stuck on a dumb train keeping them separate right now? This is something he should be getting right now! Look, Fabian's even giving him a wink! ]

don't forget

i won't

[ Now is not the time to be flirting during mission time, and yet.... ]

[maximumlegend]

[ There's a slight pause between messages, and then: ]

ugh
i have to get back to work
someone is yelling at me to do so

[ When Fabian has far more important things to do? Like texting Gorgug, clearly? No one understands him!! ]

we will see each other soon
i promise

[tinflower]

[ One of the good points in Gorgug's job is that he gets generally left alone, as long as he puts his head down and produces results. But the grind continues... ]

okay

[ He has to think for a second, but: ]

show them what a maximum legend is

[ That's a good send off, right?? ]
