it was an observation. It wasn't a request. But I appreciate you calling

[Simon. Boy's doomed.]

What do you mean, dark?

[quatrain]

Look outside your window! [ he's making 'look, look' motions with his arms, though simon can't see it. ]

Or just go outside. It's probably really cold, though.

When did the sun go down?

[quatrain]

Overnight, I think. It hasn't gotten any lighter since last night.

It's kind of neat.

It's been getting darker every day since we got here.

My head hurts though. I don't want to think about this now

[quatrain]

Has it? I didn't really notice anything until today.

Did you hurt yourself somehow?

Why do you keep sending voicemails when I'm texting you? Stop.

[quatrain]

I don't feel like texting, okay? Do you not like my voice, Si-mon?

I can't hear your voice. It's all translated

[quatrain]

[ ...haha oh yeah. in english: ] How about now?

[sequestrated]

Don't speak English.

[quatrain]

Why not? [ still in english... ]

[quatrain]

Okay, okay...

[ and then he ends the call. ]
