[ Jake wasn't always the best texter when it came to mind messages. An affection for midday naps meant most of the messages he received usually had to wait anywhere from twenty minutes to a couple hour for replies as simple as "ok."
This reply, though? This reply comes through immediately. And it's not because of the urgency of their mission, either. ]
whoa whoa hold up, you're WITH emerton? with him where?
[SORRY JAKE, you have to wait another several painstaking minutes for Yujin's reply while he flexes his Mikotoba rizz convinces Emerton to give up the aforementioned codes, then tells the whole network it's happening.
[ He better be getting busy, or they were going to have another domestic. ]
listen, i'm trying to be sensitive of our conversation the other day. but i'm only so strong, dude. you GOTTA fill in some detail between the statements.
what were you doing at the gala and what ARE you doing in his car.
[Wait, what does their little tiff on the network have to do with anything?]
As I mentioned, I was able to get the codes from him, which we will be able to get to Zandr f
OH!! Oh. No no no you have it all wrong this is strictly business I'm being very respectful of the situation i will have you know
[The problem with mind-to-text is, of course, that it IS truly mind-to-text: his rambling train of thought is more telling than anything he's actually said.]
[ Boy, if you told Jake a few months ago that he'd come to love the whole 'mind reading earpiece' jawn, he'd have called you crazy. But really, there was no better way at getting the skinny behind your extremely repressive buddy's very entertaining crush. ]
oh no man, i bet you are. though, gotta say, i'm pretty sure there's a certain irresistibly adorable pooch that loosened the pickle jar on this whole thing.
[A few minutes pass. They've stopped, and Emerton's gone: Yujin, looking around the area from the passenger's seat of Emerton's car, is ensuring that he knows where he is. Just in case this goes wrong.]
I know I hesitated before, but I'm grateful I trusted you with this, Jake. Truly.
[He's about to fire back that he's been banging men since the 1880s, thank you very MUCH Jake, only Emerton really does begin making his way back to the car.
