Hello, you've reached Rey. I'm not here right now, but if you leave a message, I will try to get back to you.

Thanks.

[ okay so maybe it was longer than the next morning, but eventually jyn does text rey. ]

It's Jyn.

[Well..she wasn't expecting a text. Half of her was convinced that the dream didn't happen, but seeing the name, it does startle her a little.]

Hello.

Doing well?

how's things?

scavenger.rey|| Text

[talentedscavenger]

Why are you babysitting algorithms? Is that code for something?

Busy, kind of? I mean, things have happened...but I shouldn't complain.

My friends, the ones from my world, they're here. It's good and bad? But, they're here Cisco. They're actually here!

[ RING RING RING RING RING RING RING BANANAPHONE. ]

Taako turned me into a bird.

[ Saying that sentence hasn't gotten old yet. ]

[talentedscavenger]

[ Rey picks up the phone, about to say hello and then the news is dropped on her. ]

What?!

[ How is he talking if he’s a bird?!]

Where are you?

[ This is why she can’t leave Poe alone. ]

[ Taako and Loki's world domination prank hour may or may not have uh. Really just been an overall bad time. For Finn. The holoprojector he got from the ice maze has left him with a lot more space devoted to thinking back lately, maybe that's put him on edge.

It's hard to keep shoving down what you dredge up every time you look at an old records photo.

Once they hit the "freedom is a lie, we'll bring order" rhetoric, he's about tapped out on paying close attention. Finn is in fact fully set off, and en route to the room to bust out the bug out bags he may or may not have assembled while dreading something just like this happening.

(Poe will thankfully keep him from throwing the room into total ransacked disarray in his attempt to put together supplementary supplies, but there may still be a mess they're working on by the time Rey gets back. This week on "don't worry, it wasn't robbers": blind panic.)

But while he's en route, he still has priorities. At least one priority. Rey is the priority. So like hey what's up, who has two thumbs and hates this entire quarantine and is ready to climb the dang walls. ]

Rey, where are you, are you safe?

voice;

[talentedscavenger]

[It takes a few rings until Rey picks up. She had to take a deep breath and center herself. Her emotions couldn't bleed into her voice. Between Poe and that stupid, idiotic post by Taako...this was not her day.]

Finn? [She can see a tightness in his voice.]

Yes, I'm fine. I'm out walking about the area. What's wrong?

[Translation: Are you hurt? Do we need to leave? What's going on?]

[brightline]

hey Rey, how's it going?

so you probably heard there's a big dance thing coming up. two things:

1. I am putting my name down on your dance card like right now
2. you want me to take you shopping? no offense but you don't seem like the type who knows where to find a pretty dress

[talentedscavenger]

It’s fine. I’m over my cold, and happy to be out and about.

I didn’t know there’s a dance—I’m assuming it’s like a party?

And why would I need a card?
....you mean I can’t wear my normal clothes?

[ Getting a constant barrage of texts is just one of he perks of being friends with Cisco Ramon. Even though he sees Rey often for work, he still ends up texting her at least once a day - not in any systematic way, but just because he likes chatting with her. Today is no exception, though instead of his usual jokes or memes or silly selfies, he sends a slightly more serious question: ]

hey i wanted to ask
is everything going okay?
you were like super quiet yesterday on our trip out

[talentedscavenger]

[Rey had come to like and enjoy the texts Cisco sent to her. She doesn't mind how many times a day they talk. He's easy to talk to, and she does initiate contact too. Lately though, since the ball, she had been keeping to herself. Thinking over things.]

Yeah, everything's fine. I just have a lot on my mind. Nothing concerning just, something that I haven't given much thought to until recently.

How are you doing, Rey? Hospital staff said you checked out some time ago and hadn't returned.

[talentedscavenger]

I'm well, thank you.

Yes, I checked out not too long ago, and I know they wanted a follow up visit. I haven't had made time for it.

[spellslots]

Just so you know. And I'm telling you this because I care deeply for you. Blue raspberry poptarts taste exactly the same as the regular raspberry ones.

[talentedscavenger]

I've never had poptarts, so I wouldn't know.

Also, are you drunk, bored, or both?

text; @wingingit

[volitaunt]

Hey. How are you doing?

[talentedscavenger]

I'm fine, listening to the rain.

You?

[It took her a while to reply to the message, surprised that Poe reached out to her. Was he okay?

@ciscodelamancha | text

[franciscoramon]

[ The text comes around 4 in the afternoon; depending on where she was, Rey might have heard the news that there was a big car chase and shoot out in the city earlier. ]

eddie got shot today
he's out of surgery and the doctor says it looks like he's going to be okay
no idea when he'll be out of the hospital
just wanted to give a heads up.

[talentedscavenger]

[Rey was at the Guard, taking a break from training when she received the text.]

He was shot? Does he need anything?

You? Are you okay? Were you shot? Do you need anything?

[And now she's getting ready to leave to check on Cisco.]

[ rey's gift comes at the very beginning, before jyn has time to second guess herself. wrapped in plain paper, it is set in front of rey's door before jyn slips away. there is a note attached that reads: ]

My mother used to tell me stories of the Jedi. This was one of their fighters.

[ it's signed with her loopy signature and that is it. ]

test

[talentedscavenger]

[The gift showing up on her door step is...shocking, touching and makes Rey's stomach flip. Does Jyn know about her Force abilities?

No...no, it's probably just a coincidence...

But the gift is thoughtful, and Rey has something for Jyn too. Finally, after an hour of debating with herself, Rey sends out a text.]

Thank you. I've only heard about it in stories.

I have something for you--and I'd like to catch up, if you have time?

text; somewhere in the prijata zone

[bythehand]

Are you busy? I've got something for you.

YES!

[talentedscavenger]

Great minds think alike--I have something for you too.

I'm free right now. Did you want me to meet you somewhere...?

text | early august

[realists]

Come to [LOCATION] at 6pm on [DATE]. You may bring one date if you must.

[ how inviting. obviously the location is the location of a home and the date is sometime in mid-august that i don't want to settle on at the moment so YOLO. boom, come to a party. bring 1 friend. ]

[talentedscavenger]

Who are you and what have you done to Jyn?

:p

text, backdated til Sunday.

[11calls]

You and I need to talk. Immediately.

CALLING

[talentedscavenger]

[ Within a few second Rey is calling Alex. ]

Are you okay?

[ What’s wrong? What happened?]
