tushanshu | four ☂ video ☁ alright don't worry even if things end up a bit too heavy

[ When the feed comes on, Isaac is giving as close a smile as he can. He's not a grinning guy, so it's somewhere between a smirk and a genuine smile. He's also back in his own body. It's a good week. ]

Question. Is anyone sick of having to be in one place to check messages and send them? I don't know about you guys, but I miss phones. And texting. Texting made everything so easy. [ Not to mention, it kept people safe. Instantaneous danger alert, natch. ] Anybody able to come up with some sort of phone prototype? I'd ask if magic can convert a phone or something - cause there's magic here - but, mine is still in the cradle of the car I was driving. So, I want the next best thing. I'd even say some sort of weird telepathy thing could be cool but nobody should be inside my mind. And I don't care what you're all thinking.

[ Also, gross, being inside someone's mind. Switching gears. ]

Also. I feel like my circle of social interaction is limited. No offense to people from Beacon Hills, but I'm used to the small town high school atmosphere. Even being infamous was better than this. So, I'm looking for some friends. I have one really, [ A beat as he considers this ] really good friend. [ Because, what is he going to define right now? ] And I think I had a friend who I pissed off and then there's Erica but there should be more, right? That's what being a teenager is about? Friends and stuff? Since I can't go to school, I want the school experience.

Also, sports. I play lacrosse - if anybody knows what I'm talking about. And thanks to gym class, I've played everything from badminton (no) to basketball (sure, I'm tall) - anybody into organizing something? I even ran cross-country. So, finding some guys to run with. Could be cool.

[ He has all this excess energy, sue him. ]

Also - parties. Specifically, raves? Clubs? Anything like that here?

[ 30% hackable - Stiles Stilinski

We should talk. Catch up. I uh - I got something for you last week.

[ 30% hackable - Scott McCall

I know I called you a friend. You're like my best friend. I also know we've crossed into, you know, more territory. I just - don't know what you thought about me being full disclosure. I can get back on the network and shout it to the rooftops. I've just never been that guy. Or, had the chance to be. Anyway, uh, yeah. [ He blushes and looks away. ] Yeah.

[ 30% hackable - Erica Reyes

We're overdue for catch up. And I need to tell you something.

[ end hacks

[ And then, he turns the camera back onto the public feed. ]

I know why we were brought here and the name we can't say and all but, am I the only person who thinks this place doesn't suck? Discuss.

[He laughs a bit.] ]

Okay. Looking to do something now? I'm free now that I've finished my last job of the day.

[ He gets a small laugh in return. ]

I wish. But, I have to meet some people this afternoon. Tomorrow morning?

Sure, I'm free then too. What do you want to do first? Go running?

Actually, I'm going running with another friend if you want to join us. But, that's 6AM.

Sure, that sounds fine. I'll come along. Where are you guys meeting up? Maybe after the three of us could hit the court or frisbee too?

Fire sector. [ He switches to text to send him the suite number. ] I don't know if she plays frisbee.

That sounds good. [Vic laughs a little.] I was thinking more just throwing it around than trying for any kind of actual game. Just being active.

We should try to get a game of Ultimate together, though.

If we can get enough people together, I and definitely game. I've got what passes for a football here too if that's more people's speed.

Every. Magic. Word.

Which magic words might those be?

Sports. Running. Football. [ New best friend. ]

[Victor laughs.]

Well, if those are magic words I wonder what these will be. I could probably end up making some lacrosse stuff if I had someone to help tell me what needs to be made.

Are you like Eve?

Eve? Who's that?

This woman who literally made clothes out of nothing. Like, with matter or something.

Huh. [Vic makes a mental note to look her up.] No, that's not one of my powers. I'm just good with tools...I mean I won't be getting my own PBS or TLC series any time soon but I can make some simple stuff.

You realize I'm calling you Bob Vila now.

Please don't. I can't grow the beard.

And asking me not to will only make me want to do it more.

[And an exaggerated sigh.] If only that worked on good things I wanted too.

Reverse psychology.

[He smirks a bit.]

Okay then, please don't pick a cooler nickname for me.

Not gonna work. See you tomorrow morning, Bob.

See, never for things I want it to. [A sigh.] Alright, it's a date. See you then.
