[Hi, network, here's a porkschop mouth and bear hat you haven't seen in a long while. He appears to be smiling, but a pretty strained smile.]

Yo, peeps! I guess I'm back! I guess that's okay! Not like I was busy or anything! It's pretty jumpin' here, lots of adventures and dance parties to be had, even if Peebles isn't here! Or Marcy! Starchy! . . . Jake! I can do this again, YEAH! If the City still needs me to be a hero, I can't really say no, right? That's so not heroy, and that's what I'm allllll about. [A little arm wiggle dance to illustrate that this is, indeed, fact.]

[Pause.] I, uh, didn't beef it down a bunch of stairs again, did I? That'd be so embarrassing. Ahem.

Callin' out for all my City bros, answer me so we can do sweet screen fistbumps and catch up! And a special shout out to Zizi, where are you, gurl! I keep calling you don't answer. Scamper your sweet unreadable teal text on over here.

[He just about swings it in for a bump, but then stops.]

Whoah, whoah, something's not right here.

[centurybaby]

[ she pauses too, arching an eyebrow at him. ]

Yeah?

[rhombus]

Who're you? Can't screenbump someone I don't know, that could be dangerous.

[centurybaby]

[ at that, she makes an amused noise. ]

Finn. It's me. Jenny.

[rhombus]

[He rubs his chin thoughtfully with his fist that's still balled for bumping, trying to figure out if what she says is true or not. Then his face brightens.]

Gurrrrrrl! How long've I been gone?!

[centurybaby]

[ she shrugs. ]

Couple months. Not that fucking long.

[rhombus]

Oh, you grew up quick! So did your language, ahhhahaha.

[centurybaby]

[ she huffs out another amused breath. ]

What can I say? I got tired of being eight years old. [ dryly: ] I'll watch my potty mouth though, if you want. Since we're friends and all.

[rhombus]

Man, I hear ya, if I could change my age I so would. I'd be, like, 16 or something! Get me a start on some of that manly chesthair that way.

Uhhh, nah, I'm cool! I'm wayyyy cool with the potty mouth. Da-Darn cool.

[centurybaby]

That's real fucking cute.

You settling back in or what?

[rhombus]

It ain't cute! It's manly.

I literally just got here, but I'm heading back to my old place now. Hopin' everything's there. Don't want to shop for any new clothes.

[centurybaby]

Yeah, well when you're finished, you should swing by my fucking spaceship.

[rhombus]

Oh, yeah!! I never got to see it before I was sent back home! I've never been in one ever!

[centurybaby]

Cool. Let me know when you want me to beam you up.

[rhombus]

Oh, beam me up? That sounds all scifi. Does it tickle?

[centurybaby]

Nah. It's kinda more like a door, honestly.

[rhombus]

Ohhh, yeah! You showed me that when I was scared of doors and you were smaller and didn't cuss as much!
