Allegra: What?
Allegra: Shit! It’s your phone. I forgot.
Xane: LMAO! That makes more sense.
Allegra: Are you going to give me his number?
Xane: He doesn’t have one.
Allegra: Don’t be a dick.
Xane: I’m serious.
Allegra: Also, why’s it taken you virtually a month to reply?
Xane: Don’t exactly look at my phone much. First time in a month I’ve charged the battery.
Allegra: Weirdo. How are people supposed to contact you?
Xane: They’re not.
Xane: Suppose you’d like me to show him.
Allegra: Would you?
Allegra: Please.
Xane: Sure, once I’m not in the doghouse.
Allegra: You’re in the doghouse?
Xane: Pretty much constantly.

Xane (Spook): Hey. It’s me. Sorry. Xane just showed me.
Xane (Spook): I wasn’t deliberately ignoring you. Just didn’t know.
Xane (Spook): Sorry about last time.
Allegra: It’s okay. How are you? Album going well?
Xane (Spook): Slow, but yes, I guess.
Xane (Spook): I’m… I don’t have an answer to that.
Xane (Spook): The cat pics are cute.
Allegra: It’s Malice. Ewan’s… My cat. She’s less pissy with me now I’m feeding her. I even get the occasional purr.
Allegra: But I may rue this if she starts bringing me gifts.
Xane (Spook): You don’t want dead things on your pillow?
Xane (Spook): Half a dead thing in your bath?
Xane (Spook): Sparrow in your cornflakes?
