khajidontJaime's cell phone is more or less plugged riiiight into his brain, so he tends to pick up like 99% of the time! If not, however...
"Hey, Jaime here! Leave a message, and I'll get back to you ASAP."

Date: 2014-09-04 02:59 pm (UTC)Not to say that there's no other reason for anyone to yell at Jaime, but he's pretty darn sure that there's only one reason Bart would be texting him about.]
Finally told him the future stuff huh? Don't worry about it. If he wants to come and yell he can come and yell
Did it go ok?

Date: 2014-09-04 08:31 pm (UTC)[There's a bit of a pause between texts, though]
dunno. i think so? i mean he was only mad for a minute
text
Date: 2014-09-04 08:53 pm (UTC)[That, and he's almost expecting to get yelled at, just so Wally can burn off whatever he must be feeling right now, learning about how bad things can - and may - get. It had been overwhelming enough from the perspective of someone from an entirely universe.]
Well that's good. I know you've been living it your whole life but it's kind of a lot to take in
text
Date: 2014-09-04 09:14 pm (UTC)[He just honestly doesn't get it.]
sorry, jaime.
this is a sorry moment isnt it cause i kinda feel bad
[Look, Bart may be a bit flighty and come across as a bit immature, but he honestly feels bad about this. He hadn't realized that Blue and KF were friends - although he clued in on that as soon as Wally called him Jaime - and if he did... well. He'd probably have said the exact same stuff but with a little more tact.
Maybe.]

Date: 2014-09-04 09:32 pm (UTC)Not this time. Some heads up would have been nice but it was going to come out one way or another. Me not telling him is on me I just decided to trust your judgment for this stuff
[Time travel's not his area of expertise. If he's going to trust anyone with working on the timeline, it's going to be the guy who came back for that explicit purpose. It's not his world to screw up... even if he is sort of dreading the conversations that are going to come out of this. He feels bad for not telling Wally, but not bad enough to have that change his mind.]
You tell everyone else too?
text
Date: 2014-09-05 03:53 pm (UTC)ok considering he woke me up at 4am to run to utah this was definitely not planned
[Time travel is exhausting. Bart knew it would be from the get-go but its- its nothing but lies and deceit and covering tracks and picking and choosing what information to give and what he'll have to sit on his entire life. Time travel is... ugh. 2/10. Would not recommend.]
he wants to tell the team
look i didnt mention the reach [which is either going to be good or really, really bad] just told the basics. heroes are gone meat enslaved
kf wanted to know who and how so i said our worlds you was taken over but i just came from getting him back
[Yup. Basics.]
i mean ive dealt with the reach but thats kinda your story amigo
didnt want to say more than that
text
Date: 2014-09-05 04:33 pm (UTC)You're cool with them knowing now? No more secrets? Because I'm ready to just spill. Literally everyone from my universe knows who the reach are anyway
[Well, people without television sets... but it's both worldwide and intergalactic. Jaime made sure of it. He's always been more about telling truths than spreading lies, mostly because he's really, really bad at the latter.]
And by the team you just mean Robin and sb?
text
Date: 2014-09-05 04:58 pm (UTC)[No one ever told him Artemis left... and came back. So its either a moot point or kind of confusing.
....... Oh yeah he should probably respond to the whole secret thing.]
yeah its totally crash they can handle the future future stuff
[... but]
if there are any holes in the story and kf gets mad its my fault and i can deal with it
[In other words... there are definitely more secrets, but Bart's keeping these particular ones under lock and key.]
text
Date: 2014-09-05 11:01 pm (UTC)[And boy, is that ever going to be an interesting first meeting. Hi! Apparently I go evil in your universe and take over the world! Would you like to be my friend?
If Jaime was smart, he would duck out now and leave Bart with his secrets. Bart's life is clearly a complicated one, and whatever family secrets he's keeping, Jaime does not need to know.
Unfortunately for him, he has been blessed with nosiness.]
Wait what holes? What's there to leave out besides all the reachy stuff?
text
Date: 2014-09-06 08:52 pm (UTC)[It's a good thing he texted Jaime instead of calling him, because there's no way he would have been able to say that with his normal amount of 'don't worry about it' enthusiasm.]
if he asks and u dont know just tell him im still lying
[Because until Gar arrives in a few days, Bart's perfectly content with whatever hell comes down on him over this. And he's well aware that there are some gaping holes in what he's told everyone - Aqualand, Artemis, why Wally isn't on the Team roster - so... he's just trying to spare Jaime from having to keep any more of his secrets.]
text
Date: 2014-09-06 10:18 pm (UTC)But today's not that day. Bart's had to spill enough of his secrets for one day. Whatever it is he's hiding, it can wait until everyone's at least registered the fact that unless action is taken, the doom of mankind is hovering over their head.]
Well now that we've established that kf took it okay... are you doing okay?
[It couldn't have been a fun conversation, even for someone with Bart's troublingly blasé attitude.]
text
Date: 2014-09-06 10:34 pm (UTC)As simple as it is, it takes a good two minutes for him to send this text.]
yeah im totally crash
[He's just... tired. The kind of tired that isn't going away by refueling and resting. And he doesn't know why.]
Re: text
Date: 2014-09-06 10:51 pm (UTC)[It's more polite than saying I call bullshit, but it means the same thing.]
Look I know you're probably tired after your 4 am meeting [4 AM, Wally? Really?] but hit me up after you're not and we'll go for a run. Run/fly. And no future talk, promise
text
Date: 2014-09-07 03:48 am (UTC)exhausted actually its completely moded ive been eating and everything
[He finds himself grinning, though. And it's tired and small but its there and he's able to chuckle as he types up his response because, well. It's really nice to be reminded that he has friends, now.]
thatd be crash ill think about it
thanks blue
