Immediately.
Ace
FFS. You people are impossible. This is hardly how a business relationship thrives.
Ace
Fine! Princess Perfect, you can be Michelle, since she’s dead anyway. The Weirdo, I dub thee Willy Wonka Whacky Weirdo.
Willy Wonka Whacky Weirdo
SOPHIA!
Ace
Fine. You can be Bree. Simple, classic, sensible. And Death, I’ll change you back to Chief. It’s on the nose, but it works. No one gets confused, no one bitches, and now it’s locked in. Zip it.
Michelle
Thank you
Bree

Bree
Yeah, thanks.
Chief
Thanks.
Chief
Why the group chat? Is this how “McDonalds” typically conducts business, or were you just looking for a new way to irritate me?
Ace
You know me; I like to keep the lines of communication open. And since he tossed us all in here together with no care for the fact that we rarely actually get along, I figure now’s a good time to try.
Ace
How are things over there in New York? Tense?
I finish on the toilet, wipe, stand, twist and flush, then I make my way to the vanity and wash my hands. Though the action feels a littlesuperfluous, considering I pick up my phone again, which clearlyhasn’tbeen washed with soap and water.
Chief
I don’t know, tbh. Archer and I fell into bed the instant we walked through the door last night. We left the others to talk amongst themselves, and your texts this morning woke me up. I suppose I’ll see what’s happening when I go down for breakfast.
Ace
Can’t call him Archer in this chat, doofus.
Ace
Motion to dub him PoPo-410, cause it rhymes, and I’m feeling fanciful this morning.
