Hey, wait. Not yet, hold on. You can't come yet, I have to call somebody fir--whoa! [A stifled intake of breath. A pleading note.] Oh, come on, give me a break. Not yet!
[The message starts with a Jack's voice drifting in and out of range, like somebody caught between talking away from the receiver and turning into it. Urgency threads through the words.
There's a distant squeak of bed springs, another hissed breath.]
Ohhhh, I see something! [That urgency ramps up to something closer to awe and terror of the unknown.] It's pink in there! I can see it moving around! I forget what I'm supposed to do! I was just getting used to having Eggbert around and now he's falling to pieces on me.
[Faintly:]
Oh, shit...
[Even fainter, the sound of a delicate, barely audible cheep.]
What the hell is that? You gotta come over and bring the dog food or something-- Wait. [Now there's a sudden silence as a perplexed somebody realizes this isn't the private call he thought he was making. Goddamn phones, where's a moogle when you need one?] This isn't even the right line! Lemme try that again.
[That there is the definitive 'click' of a hang up.]
