[hackeo]

[ Followed by: a location ping.

A bar. She's at a bar in the down. ]

[ownperson]

two weeks. give or take
no i haven't i suck at getting contracts and you know it

[ They wouldn't even have met if she hadn't sucked so bad at contracts after all... also, honestly, she was genuinely emotionally fucked up about her being gone, looking for someone new that would tolerate her for a contract was the last thing on her mind. ]

how are you ALREADY at a bar

[hackeo]

ha ha it's true i do

[ Truth is: Sombra has her own mixed up, fucked up feelings right now about- well, everything, now that she's back and she remembers this place, and South, and everyone else, but, well, you know. What's healthy coping mechanisms??? ]

where else would i be

[ownperson]

[ No healthy coping mechanisms in this household! ]

literally anywhere but a bar
down housing. on the way to the elevator. idk *somewhere*

god alright let me get up and fucking dressed
we can't actually sign at 2am yknow
i mean idfk maybe you can this place is nuts abt this shit but

[hackeo]

ok listen i got extremely fingerblasted in a store earlier by a giant hot woman like she is bigger than YOU!! SOUTHITA!!! her MUSCLES have MUSCLEs of course i needed a drink after that

anyway w/e it's fine u can still take me home with u
dom/sub courting
u know in which u also fingerblast me
if i'm still awake after nachos

[ownperson]

shit that doesn't happen often

i was gonna say smth abt u beng horny as ever but idk why i'd expet that to chage
alriht alrght ~courting or whatever
al ur shit's still u hre

[ The shitty typing is a result of her doing this whilst getting dressed. Because she does actually want to get down to Sombra as quickly as she can. ]

[hackeo]

ok in fairness this place has ambient.............. sex air ugh

AY GOOD re: my shit bc if u got rid of my game pc i'd have to strangle u
i JUST finished the big titty sidequest for my slut wizard that is NOT progress i want to rehack

[ownperson]

can't argue with that there's some real ambient sex air

[ ...honestly South probably hasn't fucked anyone since Sombra left. Hm. ]

u don't have to rehack shit dw
i was hlf cnvinced the sht would blow up on me
even if i'd wantd to mve it

[hackeo]

oh right i did rig in those failsafes huh
haha
arturito better be there too
i don't have him with me this time, just pachimari 😩

[ownperson]

he's still here
when i said ur shit's still here i meant ALL ur shit
p sure some of ur laundry is still in the machine

[ She's a functional human being! Obviously! Also she's... making a detour past Sombra's room to put the bear on her bed, shut up no it hasn't been on her bed the whole time shhh. ]

okay i'm like. leaving the fucking apartment now

[hackeo]

ay good see it's like i never left 🥰
ok bueno
also c'mon are we going to find a not apartment soon already i still need a bigger workshop u know

[ownperson]

we got a LITTLE distracted by one of our subs up and vanishing
but look we're working on it
soon. hopefully. maybe
look we suck at this

[ It's weirdly easy to talk about herself and Wash as a sort of unit, these days.

She's out the door and heading for the elevator as quickly as she can. ]

[hackeo]

lame
it's fine i'll help u two

also ftr i didn't actually decide to vanish u know
or come back, technically


[ LONG..... long pause here, as if that's it, until: ]

but if i'm going to be here? i'm glad you're still here too

[ownperson]

[ Well fuck, how dare you pile onto the actual emotions she's feeling right now. She's walking through the streets she does not need to be seen looking surprisingly softly at her phone. ]

i mean if i wasn't i'd be like, dead, so

[ Pause. ]

no but like. yeah
i'm actually glad you're back
which is fucking selfish but so am i! so! there

[hackeo]

see? all the more reason i'm glad you're here instead
but it's okay, i'd miss me too

[ And she'd have missed South, too, if she... remembered her or this place existing at all while she was home, but that's not something she's willing to mention yet. At least she'll see South soon, that's what's important. (And at least the bar she's at isn't far from the elevator, there's that too.) ]

hey also wanna play guess who else is back in town

[ownperson]

well now ur putting words in my mouth
kidding, kidding

[ It's still easier to admit that she missed her without outright saying those exact words, but they both know she's emotionally constipated like that so. ]

girl that could be so many people
if we're playing that ur gonna have to give me a hint

[hackeo]

so u did miss me 😌
i'm adorable and irreplaceable, i get it 😌😌😌

[ Don't worry, she'll say it for you, South. ]

ok uuuhhhhh
hot murder eyes

[ownperson]

ur definitely one of a kind
u fuckin. menace

[ Menace (affectionate). ]

.............
fuckin trilla?????

[hackeo]

💋

[ Very affectionate, she gets it. ]

ding ding
ran into her today, she's still into calling me kitten with her hand around my throat
oh and the hot giant lady who fucked me senseless in a clothing store???
never met her in person before, but she's from home

not the same country but u know
home........... universe world

2/2 surprise

[hackeo]

also i had a REEEEALLy vivid dream with my mean hot spider friend when i had a nap earlier but 😔 only a dream, she's not really here

[ownperson]

girl how has all of that happened to you this fast
like seriously
ur lucky that the stranger from home is someone you actually wanna fuck tho i don't get that lucky even with people i DO know from home

god tho fuckin. trilla
i can feel wash judging me already
which is fair bc i judge him

[hackeo]

ay u know me, i work fast
and ok listen

[ PAUSE...... minor pause, as she's mad about not being able to find a goddamn shred of information on the Junker Queen all over again, before, ]

ugh she's ENIGMATIC bc no info ever! rly comes out of junkertown ok!!!

[ In other, less defensive words, if South even catches it: she's someone even Sombra couldn't dig up dirt on. ]

anyway yea see i'm not a war criminal is the thing
also how's wash did he miss me too
actually don't answer that, i know he did bc why wouldn't he 😌

[ownperson]

wow someone's annoyed they can't snoop on someone
do i need to feed u more secrets to compensate

yah i'm sure he rlly missed u tryna hop on his dick all the time
but no he did
we did our whole Someone Fucking Vanished ritual about it and everything

[hackeo]

no i'm not 😤
but i do like it when u feed me secrets and tacos sooooooo

what's ur Someone Fucking Vanished ritual

[ownperson]

Doubt(tm)
