INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrdc290MvC
[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.”]

JASON
“…Okay. That’s actually impressive.”
(steps inside, looks around)
“You got structural support in here? Light sources? Did you program mood lighting?”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpKa2IgqO1
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZJkFkfb6j
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfgJjmhoiv
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.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0au4TasGPC
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnMxllAph6
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlhg4b3v1X
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2quLaR6xS
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLELh87p6Y
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeQ9gn9hnr
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBvkOam9jP
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT2KMvcbPD
[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.]
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmsjAbfy2d
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12BEJJ53Fw
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPfXlEkZsB
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhjbJvh3oi
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.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQV9tsX8do
[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.]
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6U9CSAC9X
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVasVWOB68C
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKiRUCAjyn
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKaNdbPOyV
[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.]
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAH7UdHdwW
JASON
“Still got it.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMANQ7rWZMe
[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.]
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24a2oU3rXy
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg4PQsxphI
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw0DPUVIxv

96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqo0laQoCF
[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.]
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuXvRuXYKD
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrlSSjWnM4
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDfPGROU5Z
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDhaARAxYP
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
