[ Rule 04 ] [ Punishment - DECOY ] [ Audio / English ]

[ilikesoap]

[The comm cracks on and Tyler's voice is heard. And doesn't he sound amused.]

Rubber ship~ Rubber ship!~ Ruuuubber shiiip~

[In the background one might hear tapping. Tyler is touching every inanimate thing in his reach and turning it to rubber.]

Rubber ship! This punishment is kinda fun you kno--

[Pause.]

Jack? The hell are you doing man?

[He

Comments

[meinxxherz]

Jack?

Man, are--are you drunk again?

[Herz assumes he's hanging out with 'Jak', or maybe hallucination the elf...or another Jack. He's no clue what's actually going on.]

[ilikesoap]

Oddly enough, this situation is proving entertaining enough without the addition of alcohol.

...Is that you kid? How's the hand?

[He sounds far too amused for what he's asking about.]

[meinxxherz]

It's...better.

[ilikesoap]

[The comm drops away for a moment but you can still hear what's being said.]

Wait. You really do know Herz? Tyler?! Hey! Where the hell are you going?

[Footsteps. He's running now, still tapping everything in sight.]

I dunno man. You're the one that fought him.

[Into the comm once more, speaking with enthusiasm.]

Well isn't that just peachy!

[meinxxherz]

...Tyler?

Jack, what--

What's going on? Is that--is that Tyler guy there with you?

[It doesn't sound like it. It sounds more like he's tripping balls. Goddammit.]

[ilikesoap]

Yeah. He's here.

[Comm fumble.]

Or is he?

I need an 'eyeroll' icon. Orz

[meinxxherz]

[okay, grain of salt. Take it with a grain of salt, man.]

Take it easy, man.

Poor Herz. <3

[ilikesoap]

Rubber boat!

Sure! Hey I might come visit later.

[Crazy Tyler laugh goes here.]

[meinxxherz]

That's okay...? I mean. You don't have to.

[Oh fuck, if it wasn't the weekend and if they didn't have new passengers he's said he'd feed.

Ffffuuuuck Jack please don't come by.]

[ilikesoap]

[Tsk tsk]

Now now, Herz, buddy. It almost sounds like you don't wanna talk to me.

[meinxxherz]

Well...man, y-you're kinda...acting like how you did when we had our fight, an-a-and I don't wanna repeat of that. I mean, you can't blame me.

[ilikesoap]

[comm switch.]

Huh? You fought Tyler? I thought you said you fought me?

[Fumble fumble.]

Stop asking so many questions. Just keep rubberizing the boat.

[meinxxherz]

I fought you, Jack. You. You're Jack.

[ilikesoap]

...Right. Yeah but that was Tyler talking just no--

[There's a slap like someone's been hit on the back of the head with an open hand.]

We're losing time. Move it.

[meinxxherz]

...Later?

[What the hell is he listening to? Seriously.]

[ilikesoap]

Ow geez! Bye! I'll talk to y--

[SLAP]

GET OFF THE COMM.

[whiney voice]

Okay!
