INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
42Please respect copyright.PENANA2Rx7fEb6Uf
[Jason’s head pops up from under a blanket corner, observing SD-A’s fort—complete with hanging wires, glowing snack wrappers, and a flag that reads “A-ZONE: TRESPASSERS WILL BE HUGGED.”]
42Please respect copyright.PENANA73xVcHMTUW
JASON
“…Okay. That’s actually impressive.”
(steps inside, looks around)
“You got structural support in here? Light sources? Did you program mood lighting?”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA0zEvRuGHP3
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAAU2hLoQg4H
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAWSn4cbZA3N
JASON
“Alright, listen up, weirdos.” (claps hands)
“You’ve been cooped up all day. I’ve been tortured by spreadsheets. It’s time for—brace yourselves—outdoor activities.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAyyg84Cr0sz
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANApimFWAAYJl
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA94WCBYuAJZ
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA9Og2J1H1nr
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA8gTtBHR1bc
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
42Please respect copyright.PENANAofllYe1BON
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANACkOMu9Bj3B
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
42Please respect copyright.PENANA4BK0D2tOsx
[The trio stands in a vast, mostly barren terrain just outside Central City’s reinforced walls. Old vehicles rust into the dirt. Distant wind turbines creak slowly. The air hums with a peaceful quiet—a rare calm.]
42Please respect copyright.PENANAOBufLBLUH2
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAqoZOeBc4qS
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAXiQAe5VMgz
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA1g6Y1avMdj
JASON
“If it was, I’d bring marshmallows. Now come on, let’s see how fast you two are when you’re not trying to kill something.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA8H5P8ROqFz
[He takes off at a light jog. SD-A excitedly follows, doing weird cartwheels and flips like he’s trying to impress gravity. K lags behind for a second, then sighs and activates his stabilizers to catch up.]
42Please respect copyright.PENANAFumzLk57ZC
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAKgzyg8mC1l
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
42Please respect copyright.PENANADAvBgenJO9
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAEg26aJsXeN
[They leap over rubble, duck under collapsed scaffolding, and make an all-out sprint. Jason’s arm transforms mid-run into a grappling hook, yanking him up onto a ledge before switching back with a smug spin.]
42Please respect copyright.PENANAhHds5yeWB6
JASON
“Still got it.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAc1G3N05Wnm
[SD-K lands beside him with an annoyed scowl. SD-A follows, slightly out of breath, but smiling so big it’s practically a flashlight beam.]
42Please respect copyright.PENANAXOPPRnSdox
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA3GyjP9dXYz
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANA2wNvUft2ne
42Please respect copyright.PENANAWpBtCjlb3a

42Please respect copyright.PENANAynpTZh5bFo
[They stand together on a high spot overlooking the far edge of Central City, neon lights twinkling in the distance. The wind howls past like an old memory.]
42Please respect copyright.PENANAzwXoSXZEzL
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAUQECj1lXro
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAe7RzADzMGb
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
42Please respect copyright.PENANAei8ZBkPoNv
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
