Summer's Voicemail.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Uh, yeah, this is Summer's voicemail. Who the hell calls people anymore? Just text me. But I guess if you insist on being weird and living in the dark ages, go ahead and leave me a message. And I'll text you back, like normal people do. Okay? Cool. I mean, the government is probably tapping all of our conversations anyway, but whatever."

*BEEEEEEEP*

Delivery

[sharp_man]

At some point during the day, a delivery is made to Summer's room.

Inside is a flower garden dessert.

The note reads: Thank you for being my assistant. I thought you might appreciate this.

[uncertain_dume]

It wasn't long after Kanan's wits returned to him that he was reaching for his phone and sending Summer a text.

From what I hear, I owe you one.

He could have texted with an 'I'm okay,' but he figured just the act of texting at all would probably get that across.

[sharp_man]

From here!

While I understand the temptation to ascribe it to me, I certainly did not order ten pounds of gelatin. I think perhaps you have the wrong person? Although if it is already paid for, I'm certain I can find a use for it.

[somethingwithturquoise]

[[and it went here!]]

Hera had fretted over her gift for Summer, but she wanted it to be useful and appreciated, and even though it'd be obvious what galaxy it was from, hopefully there were enough of them here that it wouldn't be obvious it was her?

It was also probably worth a lot more than twenty local dollars, but Hera had gotten it in exchange for helping someone out, so it hadn't actually cost anything.

Being delivered to Summer's apartment while she was out (with very careful picking of the lock) was a holobook of a galactic encyclopedia, with all the information Summer might need to get started.

As soon as Rey got back to Fandom, Summer was getting video of Jello falling from the sky.

A gift from the island, apparently.

This was going to do terrible things to her hair.

[somethingwithturquoise]

And Summer watched that video with an expression that managed to be all equal parts fascination, glee, envy, and relief.

That would have done terrible things to her hair.

ofc the island rains jello AFTER I leave.

Pause.

wait, do you think it's raining jello BECAUSE i left??

Another pause.

OMG is the island CRYING JELLO because i'm GONE?????

She no longer cared if there was a perfectly reasonable (for Fandom, anyway) explanation for this. It was now headcanon, dammit.

[thatwaslucky]

I honestly wouldn't be surprised

Who was she to say the island wasn't doing this for Summer? Especially considering the timing.

[somethingwithturquoise]

It's headcanon now.

There. Now at least two people knew, and therefor, it was completely legit.

[thatwaslucky]

Accepted.

Rey didn't know that phrase, she just figured why not.

During the Halloween party, Seivarden sent Summer a text:

Should I blame you for these?

[somethingwithturquoise]

Summer was trying to keep her texting back to the island to a minimum, just to be on the safe side in case anyone got suspicious about her motivations, but she couldn't just ignore that one.

!!! If you don't have one i am going to be SO DISAPPOINTED IN YOU.


ALSO tell everyone I said happy halloween! It's Halloween out there, right? DID YOU DRESS UP? SEND ME PICTURES. LET ME LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

Hey, you were the one that texted Summer, who hadn't talked to anyone from Fandom in pretty much a month, what did you expect??

[1000yearstoolate]

No costume, no disgusting shots.

She sent another photo, this time of the people in the room.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Boooooo. How come the one person texting me about this is the literally the most boring one there?

She did like the room picture, though, so she added a: Thaaaaaank youuuuuuuu <3

[1000yearstoolate]

Late at night, Summer got a text:

Never talk me into doing stupid things again.

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Pffft," Summer snorted at her phone, when she woke up the next morning and saw the text.

yeah ok no problem

And that was, like, soooooo totally sincere.

Besides, technically, she could argue that she didn't talk Seivarden into doing shit, she barely even had to fight for it.

But if Seivarden had been sending her late-night texts on a Tuesday night, she had a feeling something had been going down and she did not want to poke that hornet's nest until she could soothe it with booze at the bar that night, probably.

And now to wade through the killion texts she'd also received mysteriously from Shunsui about an hour ago? Was he even alive during morning hours? WTF was this shit?

[1000yearstoolate]

Sometime during the afternoon Summer got a text:

No fighting, just a lot of positive thinking, so if you want to avoid that, don't come back yet. The pancake place might work for good thoughts though.

[somethingwithturquoise]

....positive thinking? Like, counter all the bad thoughts with happy thoughts or something?

[1000yearstoolate]

Something like that. I didn't listen too closely.

[somethingwithturquoise]

Ugh. Barf. Pass. I think I'm good.

Not to mention she'd rather not wind up grinning like an idiot with at least one source of what her thoughts would be probably right there front and center.

u can just cover the cat cafe for me.

[1000yearstoolate]

Just wanted to let you know you're not missing anything.

Then, a moment later:

Didn't mean to upset you in the café.

[somethingwithturquoise]

There was a bit of a pause and not just in real life! before Summer responded to that, partly because she was kind of surprised by it and not just because, you know, that was, like, more than 24 hours ago and therefor pretty much ancient history at this point.

its fine. dont worry about it.

[mother_forker]

Granted Summer was in a completely different dimension right now but this was an emergency situation.

"Summer! Buddy! Pal! Dressy Trashy and come down to Carrot bar. Carrot? Caritas! The one you work at! Yeah. I'm surrounded by old people and it's weirding me out! They're showing the Petey Stoney Supernatural Movie Show. And remember the old people? They are in costume! I can't be the only young and hot one here!"

[badassprodigy]

It was a rather escstatic Barry who left a message for Summer.

"Summer! Look I know it's fucking Disneyland and shit but come by my room. I got something for you that you'll really want."

Lacking context, Summer might think that the "something" was not what he was really talking about.

[intraspective]

Iris had laughed upon hearing radio but... Summer was getting a text.

When? Where?

Well, why not?
