Temptation
It's very sorely tempting to explain everything that's going on. Not just because of the oblique way I'm telling the story, but also because I don't really trust my art to be very clear. Can you tell he's in a phone booth? Yeah.
Transcription
[[Jimothy is in a phone booth. Tsamantha sits in a parked car nearby.]]
Jimothy: Of course I can't tell you. ... I'm not being paranoid, it's likely the police ARE listening. Heck, we drove for three hours just to get to this payphone.
Jimothy: Do you... um... do you know how my parents are doing?
Jimothy: ... my parents. Family. ...
Jimothy: ... I can hear YOU just FINE!!
Jimothy: Yeah, I didn't think I was missing much.
Jimothy: ... Ha! Some vacation!
Jimothy: What does our TEACHER care? ... He does, does he? Well did he give you his number? ... Oh. Hang on. I have a pen.
Jimothy: It's going REALLY well, considering all we've been through. She's kind of amazing.
Jimothy: Her MOM? That's not funny, Thomis.
Jimothy: ...
Jimothy: I... I can't and won't promise to tell her that, no, because it is NOT FUNNY.
