Jackdaw44: I saw you in town today.

ICE9: Shouldn’t you be at school?

Jackdaw44: Skiving.

ICE9: I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that.

Jackdaw44: Liv was stirring shit with her mates at lunchtime. I’ve fucking had it with girls. I left before I hit her.

ICE9: You can’t hit girls!

Jackdaw44: Duh! That’s why I left.

ICE9: Why do you keep texting me?

Jackdaw44: I like talking to you. You got a problem with that?

ICE9: Wow, so aggressive!

Jackdaw44: Fuck this shit. You’re a piss taker like everyone else.

ICE9: No, I’m not.

Jackdaw44: You look down on me. You think I’m a stupid kid.

ICE9: a) I don’t look down on you and b) You’re cleverer than you let on.

Jackdaw44: Fucking Stephen Hawkins, me.

ICE9: You know what I mean.

Jackdaw44: Yeah. Don’t tell anyone though.

ICE9: Your secret is safe with me.

Jackdaw44: If you ever need to share a secret you know where I am.

ICE9: I’ll bear that in mind.
