Heeey scumbags!
[ As usual, the scratchy voice coming out of the comms is just too loud for comfort, and will probably prompt anyone listening to turn their volume down. As usual, he sounds a little too cheerful for their dire circumstances. ]
Anyone else getting shot at? Kidnapped? C'mon, I'm about to die from boredom here.
If this was really some kinda simulated Battle Royale you'd think the death matches would have started by now, right?
But noooooo, it's just some fuckers sneakin' around and dronebombing the place.
Terrible vacation, really. Good fuckin' thing I didn't pay for it or I'd want my money back, yeah?

Hey.
If you're still listening, congratulations, you might not be a fun-hating twat, so you get to hear my actual message.
Found another airplane, or part of airplane, in the mountain range. This really huge-ass fuselage, got "PacAir" printed on the side.
There might be some luggage in the compartments or salvageable electronics behind the boards, but the whole thing hanging in this really fucked up way and nothing on the inside looks sturdy enough to climb. Maybe if anyone's got some rope, someone could descend from above and check it out that way. Maybe enough people would be able to flip it, but I dunno if it's worth that kinda effort.
And there's also -- check this out -- a volcano. Doesn't look like it's been active for a while, there's a mineral water lake in the middle now, but it's weirdly warm. Don't know shit about that so I can't tell you if it could be heated from the sun or if it's coming from below, but hey, that's something to consider. 'Nd animals have been making their way here, so it's not poisonous. Probably. Smells kinda like sulfur though.
Volcanoes are usually in the middle of islands, right? Might not be the case here, but I'd say it's... in the southern part of the mountains? Can't be sure without a map, but there's more further north.
Guess that's it for now. Ya eggheads might be able to make something from this, right?
Oh but I wasn't fucking kiddin' about this place being boring, so if you've got any fun stories ya wanna share, I'm all ears. Only so much jungle noises one can take instead of a normal conversation, yeah? I'm a people person, you know. Honest.
Anyway! Headed toward some sus shit next, wish me luck.

no subject
But what else can he do? Lalo misses when he could just shoot people. That made everything so much simpler.
Instead, he's sitting here getting lectured by a child. And yes, he interpreted the disgust on Kokichi's face exactly the way you think he did. He envisions that disgusted expression on his cousins' faces, on Yolanda's, on Miguel's, on Tio's, on Abuelita's, and he wants to throw up. Catastrophizing fantasies of being disowned, or getting the shit kicked out of him by ten people at once, play on a loop in his mind.
He sighs and still keeps staring at the sky. His knees are pulled up to his chest. One arm crossed lazily over them. His breathing is hard. He tries to manage a laugh at Kokichi's whining, but it's not a real laugh. Just a choked out gust of air.
Lalo closes his eyes. He shakes his head. ]
Bad guy? How are you the bad guy? Nobody's going to remember who I was talking to. Only that I made a fool of myself. And if I just laughed, I'd look like a [ f-slur ]. Only a [ Mexican slur for gay men ] would let something like that go. Don't you get it? You know how many guys I know would've pounded your head into the concrete of that prison cell in two seconds?
[ Sorry, Kokichi. Be glad you're not old enough to remember 2004. ]
