I'm looking for someone that's got a green thumb. [ He pauses for a brief moment and, once he realizes that could be taken literally, he adds on: ] The planting type, not an actual one. I've got a plant in my room that's struggling to survive, so I need some tips on how to keep it from dying completely. [ There's a bit of a grin in his voice when he says, ] And yes, I know I need to water it daily.

[ Yes, he ran out and yes, he's put this off for as long as he possibly could. Admitting to the fact that he doesn't have any - growing or otherwise - is a lot like admitting failure. ]

FILTERED MESSAGE TO SECURITY TEAM MEMBERS | 95% ENCRYPTION

[ There's a very long stretch of silence - closing in on about eight minutes, actually - after Mason first sets up the filter. He's not entirely sure he wants to go through with this but he knows that there's a very high chance of him getting out and hurting someone. Maybe if he warns people - the right people - he'll be able to try to prevent it from happening. Not that he's expecting anyone to risk their life in order to keep him locked up someplace, but they'll be aware of it and, if absolutely necessary, could figure out some way to put him down before he does any sort of damage. ]

[ He only sounds mildly uncomfortable with talking about this, which is a hell of an accomplishment considering how he feels completely exposed right now. ]

[ There's another pause, this one shorter, before he ends the feed. ]

You're killing me here, Mason.

But I won't -- think Jenna would have way too much fun with it.

With me having a garden, or you being the one to supply me with it?

... Both. Definitely both.

[ He snorts. ] All the more reason not to do it, right? I mean, I love Jenna, but she's probably getting a big enough kick out of us talking.

She probably has popcorn. ... She'd better share if she has popcorn.

I have Doritos, and the world doesn't revolve around you two arrogant pretty people. I think about other things.

[ says the person stalking this. o o p s. ]

You know how I feel about Doritos. Lame.

... And you totally just outed yourself.

I'm apparently saving them to feed to adorable, wayward teens. Sorry Jaye, you're too mature for my Doritos.

...Oops? [ she sounds SO ASHAMED rly. ]

Thank god.

Yeah, "oops".

Ooops is my story, and I'm sticking to it.

You really did just out yourself. [ But he sounds amused, at least. ] Next time just not to say anything and we might actually believe that.

Did that already-- there was a kitchen knife involved. [ ba dum CHHH. ] And miss the chance to tease you guys? Not on your life.

...what in the hell are you talking about? [ The rest of that is completely forgotten in favor of that first part. Good job, Jenna. Good job. ]

...you were here for that, right? My big coming out moment? [ her memory can't be that bad. ] Because if I'm already getting vampire Alzheimer's I quit.

I thought-- [ He took out in the wrong context there. Blame the paranoia on being stuck in a death trap of a space ship (and ignore the fact that the paranoia's been ingrained in him for a while now). The breath he lets out sounds more like a laugh. ] Yeah, I remember that.

[ well you're not wrong, mason, and oh look jenna needs to duck out of frame to grab a... hairtie. or something. ]

How could you forget? I didn't exactly go for subtle. [ at least she sounds normal. ]

There's been a lot of shit happening here lately, in case you forgot. And it's not like you being a vampire was exactly news to me.

You realize you're just supporting her now, right?

I like popcorn.

[ If only this were a video feed so she could see him rolling his eyes. ] You're not as cute as you think you are, you know.

Excuse you, I'm adorable.

No but really, I like popcorn.

So do I. That doesn't mean I'm going to encourage her.

It's not really encouragement if she'll do it anyway.

...I really hate that you have a point. For the record.

Let me have my moment.
