INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
79Please respect copyright.PENANAnd5k841CVd
[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.”]
79Please respect copyright.PENANAybZInPyer7
JASON
“…Okay. That’s actually impressive.”
(steps inside, looks around)
“You got structural support in here? Light sources? Did you program mood lighting?”
79Please respect copyright.PENANA2HKWNsnW4h
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAV33zQoMsPi
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAq0VR5W2QGC
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.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAVsbvOKRZX7
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAPeAjTtyMVF
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANA5FvFCFW4zW
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAR3ioYRsiAB
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANACFtMFOt57V
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
79Please respect copyright.PENANANhmrV2bM1j
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAivfnneCrjH
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
79Please respect copyright.PENANAZthCSp93yU
[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.]
79Please respect copyright.PENANAG23HN8lVJf
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANA7O6Nqusovs
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANApe5YThps8N
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAw6MBC8XlYi
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.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAR9iLqARUV2
[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.]
79Please respect copyright.PENANAA1urdrFoue
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAXXjZM2hyDs
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAoQz4G0EqfS
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANASYBv39Rzdt
[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.]
79Please respect copyright.PENANArcP5qmCKk6
JASON
“Still got it.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAAVmuSd9Fko
[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.]
79Please respect copyright.PENANAXQyG4rRrzg
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAYZFb1bHkMo
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAxAOAOWmFt9

79Please respect copyright.PENANAhLgNTOkiBH
[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.]
79Please respect copyright.PENANAvPNBERhGec
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAhQRPmPtISW
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAuNDeJnOTQq
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
79Please respect copyright.PENANAS5AHg0Zcpg
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
