[ Did you think I was lying about him telling everybody.

VERY EXCITEDLY, AND WITHOUT A HELLO: ]

Taako turned me into a bird.

[bythehand]

[ LONGASS PAUSE. Like Finn heard this and had to make an executive decision to put the device down and think about his life and not lose his remaining hecks.

What the fuck has Poe done. ]

You sound a little too articulate to be one right now. <[ small mercies. truly. ]

text; @fromTV

[spellslots]

A little bird told me you needed a reassurance that there aren't any supervillains planning world domination on the moon

[He's trying.]

text;

[bythehand]

Let me guess. You don't reassure much.

[ Like you would even fuckin know, Finn, have you ever properly reassured anyone in your life. ]

text; @fromTV; definitely a misfire

[spellslots]

Just escaped from the ER. Meet me at the bar in 20 minutes.

tirefire elf 2k17

[bythehand]

[ Having recently learned what an ER is, thanks to some all around bad times for Poe, Finn finds this as concerning as it is confusing. ]

GO BACK TO THE ER.

[ february 6 | prior to scampering off on an open ended mission: ]

Can you feed Admiral Raddus while Cassian and I are gone?

[ no, zero context on who admiral raddus is or even where they're going, ur welcome. ]

[bythehand]

[ BLESS. that name almost sounds vaguely familiar but damn if finn can remember exactly why. a ship, maybe? ]

Sure?
Is there a reason Raddus got up to Admiral but still can't manage solo?

he makin breakfast in early feb looking super not suspicious about anything

[volitaunt]

[ Poe nudges the bacon around in their one skillet, which is sibling to their one pot, in which eggs are currently boiling.

NOT LOOKING AT FINN, WHO PRESUMABLY IS LIKE AT THE TABLE OR SOMETHING: ]

So I might-- I am going camping for a week. Soon. Next month soon

[ Oh and ftr Poe is definitely, definitely black and blue and bandaged all over. MORNING, BUDDY. ]

[bythehand]

[ YEAH, NOTHING SUSPICIOUS AT ALL ABOUT POE TODAY, WOW. Beat to hell, acting kinda weird, that seems fine.

It doesn't matter if he isn't looking at Finn. Finn is looking directly at him. He's summoning up all of his morning energy, of which he has a lot suddenly and maybe some of its best friend, concern, to give Poe a Look. ]

Right. [ That's not strictly a "yes I accept this full statement at face value" right. It's a "gearing up" right. ] I'm gonna assume you're going for fun or for a mission. Not going into hiding after whatever the hell happened to you.

[ Because surely Poe would have to mysteriously leave today if he were going into hiding from... the law or something.

Sounding like a calm reasonable human is a lot of work. It always takes so much work to sound like a calm reasonable human. Possibly because Finn's almost never calm and it's a toss-up how reasonable he is on any given day. ]

If your plan was to skip over the part where I ask if you're okay, I've got some bad news for you, Poe Dameron.

action | early march

[realists]

[ it's... okay, real talk it's legit three in the morning and jyn is standing at finn and poe's front door with her hand poised to knock but second guessing herself because she doesn't want to wake up poe.

instead, she blows up finn's phone with no less than fifteen WAKE UP texts and a polite request to come to the door right now. if he doesn't answer in a minute she will start all over. if he doesn't answer in a minute after that she might break in, we don't know. ]

Come on. Wake up!

[bythehand]

[ It really is three in the actual morning and this is happening. It takes a few texts in for Finn to wake up, but the alerts do in fact wake him up. When they left the room they used to share with Rey, he'd said he would keep his phone on and nearby if she ever needed anything. It's been over a month, but he keeps his promises.

Whatever it's fine he doesn't sleep through the night half the time anyway.

He's not expecting a stream of WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP please come to the door, etc. from Jyn??? Literally at all? When reality registers 100%, he rolls out of bed like someone lit a fire under his butt. And just kinda lets his phone catch the next wave of texts while he jams his boots on just in case and scrambles for the door.

SUP JYN NICE TO SEE YOU? ]

Are you okay?

[ ok look he has priorities and if they're gonna go bury a body or something he'd like to at least know she's okay first. ]

backdated to late march, like two days after the end of Shore Leave

[volitaunt]

I did something stupid.

[bythehand]

[ Those four words are legitimately among the top three things most concerning to get as a message from Poe Dameron, at any given point. ]

How stupid? You okay?

[franciscoramon]

[ Cisco's already gone through the list of everyone he urgently needed to contact about Eddie being hurt, and the list of everyone he non-urgently ought to contact. But his phone is still in his hands. He hesitates a moment or two, before he taps in Finn's username. He's not sure what he's doing here. Spreading the news. Looking for comfort. Just killing time until he's allowed in to the recovery room. Who knows. ]

eddie got hurt
big shootout in the city i guess, don't know if you heard
he's gonna be okay
just wanted to let you know i guess

[bythehand]

Heard a little. Didn't know who was involved.

[ He doesn't know Eddie all that well, really, but he knows he's nice and that he's got a good smile. He knows Cisco loves him, which is easily one of the most important things to know about a person. ]

Where are you?

delivery; post monster fight

[spellslots]

[Somehow, on Finn's bed:

A box from Flour Up, inside are several very important cupcakes, along with a note:]

Sorry I nearly got you killed.
I made these with weed butter, this is your warning.

delivery | the end of prijata

[realists]

[ maybe she forgot or maybe she waited until the end so she wouldn't have to talk about it, but wrapped neatly in paper and ding dong ditched at his doorway, finn finds a gift addressed to him in aurebesh that somehow manages to be loopy. inside he finds a present, old and grass-stained and obviously well loved, with a note tied to it that reads: ]

He's called Stormie and he was my best friend.

[ it's signed with her name because it's obviously from her and there is no way around it, but there is nothing else to the note, no real explanation, just her equally loopy, condensed signature. happy friend day. ]

[bythehand]

[ I just wanted the record to show that Finn feels a lot of very mushy and soft emotions about this and also he loves Jyn. So jot that down. ]

as a prequel to fake married

[spellslots]

You know how to do spy shit, right?

[bythehand]

It probably depends on the kind of spy stuff you're talking about. I've done infiltrations before.

[ Exactly once. But he really nailed it for a while there. ]

text | early august

[realists]

Come to [LOCATION] at 6pm on [DATE]. You may bring one date if you must.

[ how inviting. obviously the location is the location of a home and the date is sometime in mid-august that i don't want to settle on at the moment so YOLO. boom, come to a party. bring 1 friend. ]

[bythehand]

[ It's super inviting. The second sentence makes it clear this isn't a ransom note. ]

Is there anything I should bring besides an optional date?

text: un scavenger.rey

[talentedscavenger]

Did you receive an invitation from Jyn?

text: un finn

[bythehand]

You too?

Did she tell you what it's about? She wouldn't tell me.

Cutting your finger nails is just your hands giving each other haircuts.

[ S I G H S ]

Why are you thinking about this?

@arsenal; text; after seeing Jason's back

[shootsoff]

guess who just showed up back in riverview

[bythehand]

[ There are, in theory, only so many people Roy would have to mention in the first place in this regard. Maybe even only one. That narrows it down a lot. ]

I'd guess not the friendliest face.

early october; evening

[realists]

Have you met Bodhi Rook?

[ bravest man in the galaxy seems to be the unspoken add on ]

[bythehand]

He was here a while around Sampremi, right? I know I met him once back then.

[ No one will contest that official title. If they did, they'd have to be ready to catch a lot of hands. ]
