[ A big, white finger pokes at the camera a couple times. Then it points up at the sky. There's a vague, slightly squeaky noise, a whirl of motion, dirt. The feed cuts out. ]

bendy: continuing to be illegally adorable

[spaghettimonster]

OH MY GOD? THAT'S A PERFECT LIFE PHILOSOPHY.

BUT... I'M ONLY NAMED AFTER FAR AWAY PAPER. I'M NOT ACTUALLY PAPER.

[Clearly, he's a watch.]

he is a criminal of cuteness

[figmentpigment]

i am very philosophical and smart
sometimes i put glasses on

you are not paper. are you far away?

under arrest

[spaghettimonster]

A SURE SIGN OF SMARTNESS!

AND... UH, I'M NOT FAR AWAY FROM ME. OR FROM THE WATCH YOU'RE TEXTING THROUGH!
BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE YOU ARE, TO KNOW.

[His photographic memory for phone calls doesn't extend to texts.]

[figmentpigment]

that is too bad, i do not know either
i'm definitely at a p,lace but there are so many places that it is very hard to know which one i am at
so i am on an adventure

[spaghettimonster]

ADVENTURES ARE GREAT TIMES TO MAKE NEW FRIENDS!
ARE YOU... SOMEWHERE IN THE CITY WITH THE MIRRORS?

[For all he knows, these watches connect further than that.]

[figmentpigment]

yes! that is where i am
are there more places than the city?

i want to go to all of them!!

[spaghettimonster]

OH! THAT MEANS...
WE MAY HAVE ALREADY MET IN PASSING, AND NOT EVEN REALIZED IT!

AND, I'M SURE THERE ARE MORE PLACES THAN THE CITY.
PEOPLE TALK ABOUT BEYOND THE WALL, HOW IT'S DANGEROUS...
BUT THE KIND OF DANGER THAT COMES WITH BEING IN A PLACE! SO SOMEONE GOES THERE.
SOMEDAY, YOU COULD TOO!

[figmentpigment]

we may be friends already! secret double friends. twice the friendship!!


well we are in a place and it does not seem too dangerous so far. i want to see the other places too! maybe people just say they are dangerous because they have not been there. i will have to test it out!

[spaghettimonster]

INCREDIBLE!!

WELL, KEEP ME APPRAISED OF YOUR TESTS AND TRAVELS!
I WOULD GO EXPLORING, BUT...
I'M LOOKING FOR A MUCH MORE LOCAL ADVENTURE.
THAT OF GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT.

[figmentpigment]

oh no good luck! i have had jobs before. the yare very difficult! be very careful that you do not get into shenanigans. they are fun, but not good for long term employment!

[spaghettimonster]

THEY'RE... THEY'RE NOT??
ARE YOU SURE??
BECAUSE, I GET INTO SHENANIGANS ALL THE TIME.
I EVEN INSTIGATE THEM!

[What if this is the reason he didn't get into the royal guard? Oh no!]

[figmentpigment]

oh! if you are the one who starts them it should be fine i think
it shows leadership skills which jobs like a lot
mine are usually accidents, which does not look as good on a resume

[spaghettimonster]

OH! PHEW, THAT SAVES MY RESUME.
BUT... I DON'T WANT MY SHENANIGANS TO DRAG ANYONE ELSE DOWN.
...
. . .
I'LL JUST HAVE TO TAKE TURNS STARTING THEM AND JOINING IN!

[figmentpigment]

that is a very good idea!! if everyone has shenanigans then everyone is the same amount in trouble and so it will be fine. it will all be very fair high jinks!

[spaghettimonster]

YEAH!!! THAT'S STATISTICS, SO YOU KNOW IT MUST BE TRUE.

[figmentpigment]

though it would take a very long time to trade off antics to each person. maybe it would be best to have one really shenanigan that gets everyone involved at once!

[spaghettimonster]

SO YOU'RE PROPOSING... SHENANIGANS BY COMMITTEE?
INGENIOUS!!
IF EVERYONE'S MAKING THE DECISIONS, EVERYONE'S THE LEADER. IMAGINE HOW GOOD OUR COLLECTIVE RESUMES WILL BE.

[figmentpigment]

and we are certain to make everyone have fun if they are all part of the shenanigan planning!
sheplanigans

i did wordplay there was it clear? i have never done one before i want to make sure i am doing it right sorry that is not relevant to the conversation i got excited to try it out and got distracted

[spaghettimonster]

YEAH!! I FOLLOW IT.
SHEPLANIGANS FOR SHENANIGAN PLANNING, OR PLANNED SHENANIGANS.
IT DOESN'T ROLL OFF THE TONGUE...
MORE LIKE POPS, LIKE A LITTLE FIRECRACKER OF WORDPLAY.
GOOD JOB!
