[Ignore the high pitched shriek of Dave's voice cracking in mid-yell.]

[Offscreen, Bro has to chuckle to himself for a moment. But after a few seconds, Cal's mouth opens and that same high pitched voice is heard.]

I missed you, Davey!

I didn't! Bro how the fuck did you get him back??

Bro is gone now, Davey, there's only me and you! And I came back for you! Heeheehee...

You know if you want the late night box of cinnamon sticks, you better tell me how you got him back.

[There's a pause, in which Bro really has to think whether or not trolling Dave is worth missing out on cinnamon sticks. In the end, he lets out a sigh and moves Cal, placing him on his shoulders before positioning the camera on himself. Cal can be seen with his head resting on top of Bro's. He's still watching you, though.]

Damn it, you know my weakness. Anyway, I dunno. I just kinda found him? Like, he was just there. I'm guessin' it was like that egg I got at Christmas. But it's Cal, so I ain't gonna question it too hard.

[Cal is here. This is officially absolutely terrible. He was so free without that stare. So free.]

Weird. I was just curious because I ran into some shit I made during the game. [He pans the gear's view to the laptop sitting on his lap. It's pretty stylish with the gears under it on either side with a sleek finish to it. Compared to clunkier laptops its slimmer.]

Can't do anything time related with it. I tried.

[Come on Dave, you have your best friend back. What's so terrible about that? Cal loves you, come on.]

Oh damn, that's sweet. [He looks at the laptop, raising his eyebrows to show that he's impressed with the gear.] Too bad about the lack of time stuff though. I guess I ain't really surprised, but it still sucks.

It's no surprise. Nothing bigger than a pokemon trainer for this guy. At the glitches shit seems to be letting up a little.

See the news report? [He will never recover from it. He went and sat awake with mom.]

Oh yeah, I did. [Shit was fucking rad though, in his opinion.] It was like something straight out of the Grudge or some shit. Wasn't it awesome?

You're not the slightest bit creeped out. Why am I not surprised. Of course you're thrilled. Of course.

Oh. I was supposed to be creeped out? Shit. Let me try again.

[Deep breath.]

Oh em gee, that was like. Sooo terrifying.

[Over the years Dave has developed the perfect eyeroll, he's using it right now.]

Great valley girl impression there, Bro.

[If only he could see it. Alas, the shades are in the way. But still, he can feel it, and that is an eyeroll worthy of a Strider.]

I know, right? [He's still using the accent.] I'm like, amazing at this.

okay you can quit it now. Point made, Bro.

It's still weird. It's like...hey wait. [He visibly sits up, blinking.] It's like when we used to try breaking the shitty skater games. Remember?

Aww come on D-

[But he stops, because what Dave says registers in his mind, and his eyebrows shoot up. Dave is absolutely right- it was just like that.]

Yeah, I do. Are you saying you think we're in a video game? [He doesn't sound skeptical, just... Surprised by the idea, and like he thinks Dave might be right.]

News flash so was Sburb, but yeah I think we are. Obviously we need to figure something out here. Or ignore it. Because glitches can crash things.

No shit, Sherlock. But this is different. But yeah, we do. If this place fucking crashes, I'll wreck their shit.

I'm more worried what will happen if it crashes. Or if it's just a universe like a game and we're rolling through it so if it crashes something happens.

I'm not thinking further on something. Let's set that aside and look at the bigger picture. Like the glitching kept putting John with me all damn day.

So basically... The bigger picture is that this place ships you and John.

Uh. No?????

It's the only explanation, if you kept getting stuck with John all day. But seriously, what is that supposed to mean?

I have no idea! I couldn't even shower because he might have randomly turned up while I was scrubbing or something. Maybe it wanted me to bail him out again.

Or maybe it doesn't mean anything at all. I mean, I'm not trying to disregard your theories or anything, but you might be over thinking it.

Good thing I'm not theorizing anything. Bringing that up was to complain about it. Though his day was worse, got surprised two people with weapons that nearly gutted him.

Though the second was a cool dude who was trained how to cancel a swing.

[One being Dave.]
