Well, isn't that a pleasant morning alarm.

This is.. probably the third ever time he's received a friend request. Is this his arm? A total rando? A troll? A hacker? It couldn't hurt to check.

He squinted as the sunlight streaming through the window glared on his dark phone screen. Gross. He hates seeing his pudgy, unshaven mug in the morning. He'd think a society that invented space ships could also science up an anti-glare screen on every cellphone. A pretty handy thing isn't it? The magic rectangle that can relay all human knowledge and communication is second nature to mankind. Hell, at this point they're more popular bed buddies than teddy bears. Maybe phones would be better if they're cuter and cuddlier.

Damn it, Alex! Focus!

SS: who is this?

CU: Me? Let's just say I'm a friend of UC.

CU: I'm like the arm you've never had. ; >

SS: pretty sure i have two arms!

CU: No, I mean they're not sentient.

CU: It's sad. You're like some weird mutant with only 2 talking limbs.

SS: thanks. i guess.

SS: if you're just gonna poke fun at me i could just block you, y'know.

CU: Aw, come on, where's the fun in that? Now that you know about us, you can do some networking, make new friends!

CU: You know what this app is for, right?

SS: talking to people??

CU: Haven't you noticed how it has over a million downloads but none of the people in your real life social circle talk about it?

SS: yeah? i don't remember downloading it, really. thought it came free with an update.

SS: i thought it was more popular overseas or something.

CU: You sweet, naive little human!

CU: This app was made for limbs to talk to humans!

CU: It's supposed to be anonymous, but the truth slips out one way or another!

SS: huh. go figure.

SS: well uh, i gotta go, it was fun meeting you i guess!

CU: Awwww come on!

CU: Don't be such a stick in the mud!

SS: ._.

CU: I messaged you for a reason.

SS: seems like you're still kinda harassing me here.

CU: I came to encourage you!

CU: You seriously should go to the beach again. Hearing all about your missed shots at life is honestly so depressing.

CU: You're like, a walking well of untapped potential, it just makes me sick.

SS: i still don't even know who you are!

CU: Just telling you to get your sea legs again, mister landlubber!

SS: AUGH!

Delete Conversation? (Y/N)

SS: Y! YYYYY!!!! Y!!

Seems like that person's an arm, a troll, a rando and possibly a hacker all at once! Why would UC be friends with someone so nasty? She's so sweet! Speaking of which, maybe he'll try to surprise them today. Maybe he can try "listening in"!

It'll just probably take emptying his mind.. a pretty herculean task.
