[There is a mildly anxious child on the feed, sitting on the edge of the community building roof as she munches down on some potato chips; this child's diet is 1000% on point. But more importantly, she flashes the video feed several stories below toward some of the trees. The little accent is full of confusion:]

They are dying. What are they sick with?

Shouldn't someone do something to save them? ¿Dónde está el jardinero?

[Seriously, nobody seems concerned about the leaves all falling off. Or them turning odd colors.]

Comments

[shoplifter]

Yes, dipshit.

[-- she parrots.

NOD, NOD.

YOU'RE BOTH DOING AWFUL]

[hardedged]

Uh, shit. [ still not helping, jones. ] Look, don't say that, okay?

[shoplifter]

[... The comment brings a little smile to her face. It's nice to remember him fondly, sometimes. He thinks he'd secretly be humored by all this.]

... You're both bad at this.

[hardedged]

[ a sharp scoff. ]

Yeah well, I'm bad at everything.

[shoplifter]

You're not bad at cursing.
