[His smirk is audible, but when he speaks after Jacobi his tone matches the slightly more intense discussion.]

Alright, well. Is there anything you wanna know about it? Jon's pretty thorough about explaining the whole thing, but I don't know he's ever been the actual subject of one.

[mrballisticsdummy]

Nah, he said he's good for a few weeks and we'd come back to it then. So I plan on bullying him about it then.

I told him that if he tried to dodge, I'd come to you, though.

CW language lmao

[statementfuckingends]

Hah. I doubt you'd need me, you could hold him down single-handedly.

[And he puts on a terrible American accent that's totally meant to be Jacobi.]

Statement of Daniel Jacobi, regarding... I dunno, The Listeners being cunts.

[mrballisticsdummy]

[He laughs so hard that he gives himself the hiccups.]

I meant that you could help walk me through how to force feed a statement down his throat. But I beat him up when he cheats at Mario Kart, so you're right about that.

And the Listeners are the least of my goddamn trauma.

[statementfuckingends]

[And Jacobi laughing sets off Tim's stupid cackle and he does snort.]

Well, there's your primer then. Statement of, your name here, regarding Spooky Bullshit. And if you do it with enough intent you'll hear a tape recorder when one manifests out of the bloody ether. It's the most useless superpower ever.

[mrballisticsdummy]

Oh I've seen the tape recorder thing. When we were talking about the thing outside of the module. The surrogate that looked like me.

[statementfuckingends]

Hah. [Though that one's a bit more bitter.] Yeah, they'll do that too. Sometimes it just pops off when you start discussing actual trauma around him, if Jon doesn't hold it in it turns real.

[mrballisticsdummy]

Yeah, that's pretty much what he told me, too.

[He clears his throat.] I uh - had to know if I was the real me or not.

[statementfuckingends]

[That just gets a moment of silence while he takes a drink.]

Yeah, you mentioned before. I'm not gonna fault you there, his whole Knowing bullshit is legitimately useful sometimes. He's gotten better at it since we died, mind you, what with being a fully realise arse.

[mrballisticsdummy]

Hey! Sometimes that shit is useful and sometimes it's really, really not. He knew my birthday, Tim. And, I will say again, he uses it to cheat at Mario Kart.

[statementfuckingends]

[Tim sniggers again.]

He's not a bloody crystal ball, Jake, I'm pretty sure he can't predict video games with randomised elements.

[mrballisticsdummy]

Fucking. Ask. Him.
