FIREFLY: THANKS DARLING (:

HUNNYKINZ: ANYTHING ELSE?

FIREFLY: WELL THERE IS SOMETHING . . .

HUNNYKINZ: WELL DON’T KEEP ME WAITING!

FIREFLY: WELL I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD SHOW ME AROUND THE APARTMENT BUILDING. I KNOW YOU CAN. YOU GOT A BACKSTAGE PASS CUZ YOUR DAD OWNS THE PLACE. I’VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE THE SECURITY ROOM.

HUNNYKINZ: I DON’T KNOW. DADDYKINZ TOLD ME NEVER EVER EVER SHOW ANYONE THE SECURITY ROOM.

FIREFLY: COME ON HONEYBUNNY! YOU KNOW I WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING MALICIOUS.

HUNNYKINZ: BUT ALL THOSE QUESTIONS YOU WERE ASKING THE OTHER DAY . . . ABOUT HOW TO MAKE THE SECURITY CAMERAS SHOW UP ON YOUR DEVICE LIST?

FIREFLY: JUST QUESTIONS DARLING. BESIDES, I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE IT WOULDN’T BE EASY FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO HACK IN. BUT THE WAY YOU DESCRIBED IT, WITH THE TRIPLE SET OF PASSWORDS AND THE FIREWALL, SOUNDS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO JUST HACK INTO. I WAS ONLY INTERESTED IN THE SECURITY OF THE CLIENTS OF THE HOTEL.

HUNNYKINZ: YOUR SO SWEET! I CAN’T WAIT 2 C U @ THE MOVIE. WHEN ARE WE GOING?

FIREFLY: HOW ABOUT TOMORROW (TUESDAY) AT TWO THIRTY?

HUNNYKINZ: SOUNDS GREAT! ITS THAT NEW ROMANCE ISNT IT?

FIREFLY: DEAD ON!

HUNNYKINZ: THATS SO NICE! I KNOW YOU DON’T LIKE THOSE.

GOOD WORK. I’M GLAD YOU SUGGESTED WE MONITER THEM AGAIN. THEY HAVEN’T TRIED ANYTHING BIG SINCE THE YEAR 2500 WHEN THEY DESTROYED OUR BACKUP FILES AND COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY. I THOUGHT WE HAD PRETTY MUCH BEATEN THEM BACK AND EXTINGUISHED THEM 400 YEARS AGO. BUT IT SEEMS THAT YOU WERE RIGHT. THEY HAVE BEEN GATHERING STRENGTH FOR A LONG TIME NOW, AND THEIR NUMBERS ARE MANY. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE WE MAY BE ABLE, WITH THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE SECURED FOR US, TO STOP THEM. IN OTHER WORDS, I COMMEND YOU ON YOUR EXTRAORDINARY WORK.

NEW MESSAGE FROM IMABADASS

I ASSUME YOUR LONG SILENCE ISN’T WITHOUT REASON AND YOU ARE PROBABLY DEAD OR CAPTURED BY ENEMY UNITS. ALSO, SINCE I HAVEN’T SEEN THE DESTRUCTION (OR ATTEMTED DESTRUCTION) OF THE WORLD BANK, I ASSUME IT WAS EITHER A TRAP OR YOU DEALT WITH IT SO SMOOTHLY IT NEVER EVEN REACHED THE NEWS. I PRAY FOR YOUR SAFETY.

haha yeah the college friend was pushing it, but I just wanted to make it seem like he had a normal life too. and yes, thank you for catching my typo, I did mean attempted. Also, I was trying to differentiate the "computer font" from the "speaking font", so I tried to make the computer have the most angular, formal font I could find, whereas the speaking had a rounder style :) still, thank you for the edits!

omg I loved this! But I think you should have taken a break from all that caps lock, and some of the random things (like the college friend) were distracting. Also, I think you meant "attempted," not "attemted"
