I didn't mean in time as in, like, one of us is running out of time. I said I found you in time because I found out about you yesterday and got this today, so it was good timing.
[ ........ fucking this again. Zero rolls her eye at the wishy washy answer. is she surprised it's happening? upon brief reflection, no. no, not at all. ]

[ ugh. she doesn't entirely get what the hell is happening, but she can't stay irritated at that.
... still, she'd been hoping there would have been information or something useful on them. ]

[She waves a hand, though.]

no subject
[ that's... reassuring? ]
... I don't suppose you ever got things to make a "tape recorder" work, did you?

no subject

no subject
[ grumbling ]
You pick something out of a line-up and get something random, right?
no subject
Yeah, that's right. Same with you?
no subject
[ she can say that, right? ]
... So how many picks have you failed?
[ and now she's just asking to stir shit up ]
no subject
[That, or she doesn’t want to. Who knows!]
no subject
[ she sounds absurdly pleased by that ]

[ Zero has no intention of asking about the result of Beck's roulette choices, unless there's a good reason why ]
no subject

Maybe not dependent on each other, but - I think it was important for us to find each other anyways.
no subject
[ she just raises and eyebrow and cocks her head at that next bit though. ]
Why?
no subject
[But that's the last she'll say about it. She continues on with a small shrug.]
I get the feeling you'll see soon.
