Re: 9/4

[fiddlestick]

What??
But that's trespassing! You can't do that!

Re: 9/4

[mercurio]

i'm just checking things out!

[fiddlestick]

That's still illegal!

[mercurio]

only if someone tells the cops

[fiddlestick]

That's really not how the law works...

[Should he report this to the cops? He has no idea. What would he even say?? I got a weird text from a guy planning to break into an apartment I have no idea where??]

[mercurio]

listen
we all look after each other here in this apartment!

[fiddlestick]

You're going to do it no matter what I say, aren't you...?

[mercurio]

everything will be okay
if i go missing you gotta report to the cops though okay

[fiddlestick]

What?!
But I don't know who or where you are!

[mercurio]

this might be for the best

[fiddlestick]

[Elliot is so worked up he verbally exclaims "How???" at the message. HOW WAS ANY OF THIS FOR THE BEST YOU'RE COMMITTING CRIME. But the extra staring makes him realize something]

Wait
Weren't you talking to my brother earlier?

[mercurio]

who's your bro?

[fiddlestick]

Carlos Craig!

[mercurio]

you're /his/ younger brother?

[fiddlestick]

[He sighs at that question. It's one he gets a lot okay]

Yes.

[mercurio]

you're the talented musician

[fiddlestick]

I don't think I'm as good as he makes me out to be...
But yes, I play the violin.

[mercurio]

oh neat
you're going to school for it?

[fiddlestick]

That's the hope.

[mercurio]

good luck dude
sounds like you got what it takes

maybe one day we'll all hear your music?

[fiddlestick]

Thanks. If you don't wind up in jail for breaking and entering...
Yeah. Maybe one day.

[HE HASN'T FORGOTTEN WHAT YOU'RE DOING]

So how do you know my brother?

[mercurio]

or maybe it'll be what keeps me from committing a crime
who knows

you mean carlos? i met him when i was maybe around 14?
stuck inside an elevator kind of scenario
claustrophobia kicked in real fast and he helped me out through it

[fiddlestick]

That's sweet, I think, but I doubt it's that impressive.

[But aw. He can't help but smile at the screen- proud of his brother]

Heehee, that sounds just like him.
He acts so modestly, but he's always saving people.

[mercurio]

he's a firefighter right? gotta be special kind of someone to do that kind of job
guess that talking about carlos made me feel self-conscious about my planned b&e
no crimes from me today

[fiddlestick]

Oh thank goodness!

[YAY CRIME AVERTED.]

Yeah, he's a firefighter.
He wanted to be one ever since I could remember,
even when he tried to say otherwise.
