Ain't like we can't reach each other through the messagin' feature.

[goalsides]

Yeah, but sometimes phone calls are a lot faster, or more convenient. I guess it's fine like this for now though.

[battling]

Seems convenient already, instant messages?

Usually you'd have to wait for a letter to get to somebody. That can take ages.

[goalsides]

I'm not saying it's not convenient, it's just that things can be even more convenient with other options.

[he would just like the phone to work in the way phones should work.]

[battling]

Maybe it'll show up later. Who knows.

[goalsides]

Guess we'll find out. [even if he hates waiting a lot.]

So did you show up by yourself, Bradley?

[battling]

Ended up with a whole buncha other people in Fall.

You?

[goalsides]

[not what he meant, but he won't correct him either.]

I'm over in Spring. There's gotta be at least forty or more of us here if the dorms all have about ten people.

[battling]

Yeah, probably. Haven't met everybody just yet.

[goalsides]

Have you met anybody that sounds outrageous to you yet?

[battling]

I got a real high threshold for weird shit.

[goalsides]

Okay, then what about just anybody interesting?

[battling]

That guy with the giant lizard head. Think his name was Cain?

[goalsides]

I...think I must've missed him in passing. Like...it's a real lizard head?

[battling]

Dunno how.

Yeah, it's definitely a real lizard head.

[goalsides]

Is the rest of him not a lizard then? [digimon hybrid...?]

[battling]

Seems human t' me. Just tall. Can't miss him if you're lookin'.

[goalsides]

I guess I'll have to look later. I've been a little busy with some other stuff.

[battling]

Gettin' adjusted or somethin' else?

[goalsides]

More like getting acquainted. There's a lot of ground to cover here.

[battling]

Feels like an understatement.

[goalsides]

Yeah, but at the same time it's a little easier than I thought? So that's just another thing that's kind of weird.

[battling]

Anythin' around here that ain't weird?

[goalsides]

The food. [it's kind of a joke, but it is in fact food he's used to.] That's one of the things that's the most normal.

[battling]

[He laughs!]

The fried chicken ain't as good as the stuff at home.

But the burgers ain't the right color. The buns for those are usually pink.
