week 4 - wednesday i think??? whenever we can do a hostage swap

[refactor]

[ So these two handcuffed pairs have probably been having quite the Time these past few days. Granted, this is probably also solely because of Jack and Rhys, since they're pretty much the worst people you could be handcuffed to, but. Regardless, once they reach their allotted three days before they can make their freebie switch, Jack is definitely suggesting and then taking the time to track down Minako and Rhys. He'd rather not be handcuffed to anyone, but if he had to pick... Rhys was the best option.

Yeah, and sure, Clover probably isn't happy about being handcuffed to the insane hot (?) dad, so. ]

Okay, so, dunno about you two, but personally? I'm thinking a swap arrangement would be waaay less awkward than the, uh, current setup we've got here. Which, nothing against you, Clover? But probably thinking it's fair to say that this is weird. And awkward. For both of us. Oh, and Alice is a total bitch.

[ Oh, did he intentionally say that part with much more emphasis, as if he were expected a certain AI to be listening in? Never. ]

So, whaddya say? How about a swap?

Oh man, I dunno! I've gotten so attached to this guy over the past few days.

[ the sarcasm in her voice is scathing, giving rhys a hearty clap on the back. he probably has a small bruise on his cheek from being sucker punched earlier in the week, but that speaks for itself. ]

But I guess I'm okay with it as long as Clover-san is.

[ the way rhys looks at minako is basically "[KILL BILL SIRENS]" at her sarcasm. if only he wasn't so much of a gentleman that he could kill a teenage girl.

... actually, you know--

but he seems to be calmed a little by the presence of jack and instead of saying anything spiteful, he just looks over at jack. ]

Please, can we swap? It would be the greatest thing of my life. Do you know how long she takes to get ready in the morning? I don't get it! I just don't!

[refactor]

Y'see, that? That's why you've got that bruise. Man-- If you had to rely on that stupid approval meter thing, you'd definitely be screwed, kiddo.

[ Jack is pretty sure only two people here could manage a 75% with Rhys, and one of them is definitely him, so. He shakes his head, then looks to Minako. ]

Also, I have to give credit where it's due. Assuming that's from you, you've got a surprising right or left hook. So, good on ya.

[allout]

[ heh heh heh. she knew that she could come to like you, jack. ]

Thanks. Punching's not really my thing, but I think my made my point.

Mhm, awkward, weird, agreed on all counts— [She's spent the entire week thus far fidgeting noisily with the handcuff like she's doing now and probably driving everyone around her completely bonkers in the process, but she pauses to snicker at Rhys's distress and the bullying that follows.]

Sure looks like you did! [GOOD JOB MINAKO clover weren't you worried about getting stabbed by this guy earlier this week, what are you attempting to gain by joining the bullying] It's a girl thing, by the way, taking forever to get ready in the morning. [she says like they aren't lucky if it's still morning by the time Clover's up and at 'em; this has definitely been a disastrous few days]

[jackhole]

[ he just looks between the three here and lets out a sort of groaning/wheezing noise before pressing his face into his hands. this is obviously a conspiracy of people out to get him? of course? wtf. ]

I'm not screwed when I'm stuck with like, like... normal people! Like, I'd be fine if it was Fiona? She gets me. Everyone else though...

[ hateful glances at minako and even clover. YOU'RE IN ON THIS TOO, PINK STUFF. ]

They're just weird.

[ ok rhys ]

[refactor]

Yeah, totally everyone else that's weird and not you.

[ Jack says it with a snicker, so the sarcasm is obvious... This is really unfair to Rhys as a three on one bullying session, but he should be used to it by now. It's his lot in life. ]

But as much as I'd love to just stand here and make fun of Rhys, why don't we do that after a swap, since it's soundin' like we're all in agreement that this is probably more ideal for everyone.
