INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
133Please respect copyright.PENANAnOX79lywzo
[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.”]
133Please respect copyright.PENANAdJOHTSZgq0
JASON
“…Okay. That’s actually impressive.”
(steps inside, looks around)
“You got structural support in here? Light sources? Did you program mood lighting?”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAykZx6mCDPX
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANANFuFcuK1Hh
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
133Please respect copyright.PENANABTXcXXyZJk
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.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANARB7hrwNWxN
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAq7Yq94Gn1j
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAzSEGn66Eae
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
133Please respect copyright.PENANABddX1DdMCk
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAM1YGuGRJ6W
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
133Please respect copyright.PENANAf3qqTeG7bu
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAq2RxWb7wZb
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
133Please respect copyright.PENANA4DBF2OF2Xx
[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.]
133Please respect copyright.PENANAT1MCevfSBF
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAbUkhpmisWQ
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANArLeH8hWZkl
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAS0Az8p4Pda
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.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAAFSIb9zlRd
[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.]
133Please respect copyright.PENANALi5RcTxeJt
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAKKpfO3iidq
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAr3KLwfwhTf
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANA9xjRNTFqS7
[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.]
133Please respect copyright.PENANAt6QBS8D2ee
JASON
“Still got it.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAnWR2PZy3n9
[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.]
133Please respect copyright.PENANAj5uu2CcbPx
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAa7y1y0X7YG
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAX5HFt7eEiu
133Please respect copyright.PENANAfX8oxVVIh2

133Please respect copyright.PENANAtXquu9v6wL
[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.]
133Please respect copyright.PENANAnxQg7GoUiy
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6bIuHW2XU
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANASmCJ1VXIx1
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
133Please respect copyright.PENANAf2zw5v0XsT
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
