Cole: :/

Cole: Is he still pissed that I took his credit card away?

Colton: Why would he be? I gave him mine.

Cole: COLTON! Why did you do that?

Colton: Because he needs to buy shit. We had a vandal sneak onto the property last week. They tagged the barn. They didn’t get the chance to do it again, though. Callan’s cameras caught him right in the act. He deserves to be paid for his system.

Colton: Plus, I thought we’d gotten over this. You’re not a fucking prude.

Cody: I feel like I’m missing half this conversation and I’m not sure I want to know either so…

Cody: Who was the tagger?

Colton: River McAllister.

Cody: Since when do they give us beef?

Colton: Things are weird up here. And I’m not talking about Pops.

Colton: We had a really dry September.

Colton: Anyway, it’s Callan’s birthday next week.

Cole: Like we forgot *rolls eyes*

Cole: I’m coming up. He won’t appreciate the fucking journey I have ahead of me, the ungrateful little asswipe.

Colton: I was thinking he’ll be 18. We could add him to the chat?

Cody: Fine with me.

Cole: And me.

Colton: I thought I’d have a fight on my hands.

Cole: Why? It’s about time we corrupted him and turned him into a son that Pops would be proud of.

Colton: Don’t make me regret asking lol.

Cody: Pops wanted a boy reared in his own image…

Cole: He should be careful what he asks for.

Cody: Agreed ;)

THE FOLLOWING DAY

KillerCatQueen7: Is this for me to waft at the camera?

GretzkyWannabe42: You received it, then?

KillerCatQueen7: If you sent me a flogger, yes.

GretzkyWannabe42: Feel free to use it to swat flies, but I wouldn’t mind seeing you turn your ass pink with it…

KillerCatQueen7: Hmm. Maybe.
