“Hey yeah, um, about your number... Iaccidentallyputitinmyphonewrong. Carmodyhelpedmegetitworkedout. Iwasgoingtotextyousoon. Afterthenextshowmaybe.”
Sola closes her eyes expecting the laughter or... something. Instead, Colby simply smiles: ‘On your own terms.’ Colby looks to the ground and continues. Sola replies before she can think of what she’s saying.
“She’ll probably get hurt, yeah. I did. And I’m... okay? She’s a really special person and if you can have Amy then why shouldn’t she” --
“What I mean is, she really seems to love this. I have been with her a lot over the past weeks, and she’s got a knack for this. Like, Paule and Kanako and Carmody and me have been working with Ash - ah, Romero, Firebird. The Poison Queen! She’s so cool. But anyway, yeah, Carmody was at the hospital after the... attack. Last I heard she was... huh. She said ‘home’, but I don’t really know where that is. Sorry, that’s no help at all.”
