INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7llCQzV9fx
[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?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25mg2yCwLH
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmqan7QpCA
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh8w9ymNa6
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.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiXy6oeLe4
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnW8b9keoq
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LdI9CLkSL
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUSUq28qxL
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB5mcdf1Ir
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkdUAahAx8
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnfcNNlUGv
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIrugrJ0Mn
[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.]
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6s5J0GnOt
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOBlhkv8Ms
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpiQGgdv4m
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk9HyeS7Z5
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.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhss9UWEOt
[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.]
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDdChXq6rT
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwsw0ojaHz
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MwSItpzBj
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BkbHIPGrY
[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.]
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCwN8B2D9t
JASON
“Still got it.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx73XSXYhC
[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.]
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxU0xeqbMS
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDxjSS0ZVF
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7HMmXfm3n

16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw53V7w3jeF
[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.]
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfWLxrTid0
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w8HHUcshg
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sLUsAHc1c
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
16Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG7iSZoMoE
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
