INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
75Please respect copyright.PENANAGQbg4t6f5b
[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.”]
75Please respect copyright.PENANAspRnguOJZz
JASON
“…Okay. That’s actually impressive.”
(steps inside, looks around)
“You got structural support in here? Light sources? Did you program mood lighting?”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAzJsGrwZhTQ
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAg3Xla6Rfg6
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAqBdC3Do3bo
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.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAUw1beTqdfd
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAGUygPn9n9n
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANA3BJe25054h
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAGB8UgvbIeY
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAsikdJsq4cO
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
75Please respect copyright.PENANAQvhCWxnaiC
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAsJgS6TT9oh
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
75Please respect copyright.PENANAydsNOVKZjr
[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.]
75Please respect copyright.PENANA7zQ1ilqpOu
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAsrv2EgRZ8t
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAVhfP27md1N
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
75Please respect copyright.PENANA8Ux8l0lZGd
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.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANA8FhoJmXbFC
[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.]
75Please respect copyright.PENANA3VRq3Vv5Hy
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAtkLExJBdnp
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAJJrFhiTnNX
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAsV0DTihCyY
[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.]
75Please respect copyright.PENANAKa6pTQFGml
JASON
“Still got it.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANApXFmGSRQ6L
[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.]
75Please respect copyright.PENANAQzE1u1Rag6
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAqHt34WfGUC
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANA5sQtP1ieQA
75Please respect copyright.PENANACT0dWvMqW6

75Please respect copyright.PENANACimRwTBUB8
[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.]
75Please respect copyright.PENANA1MGOABmixj
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANAObKQj1jwNN
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANASWBSlyMtXi
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
75Please respect copyright.PENANA20kwnz75bY
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
