"Hey you horny bastard, just wanted to thank you for vouching for me earlier. Was pretty sure my hide was cooked when the big guy rolled by but I guess there wasn't enough to pin the supervisor's death on me. Soooo I'm sure it'll be news to you, but I've been promoted to take his spot in the quartermaster's office. I don't know what the Sheriff is really thinking but I won't complain about the pay raise. Just... please don't kill someone again with my own knife, okay? Alright, see you at lunch."

"Tricky, I swear if you show up in that stupid frill of yours, I'm gonna call off this whole date. Whoever gave it to you deserves to be shot. I know you don't wear it around the office and I've never seen you on the job with it either so don't give me that bullshit saying that you wear it all the time and that it's cute...Well, I mean...okay I'll admit, it's kinda cute. Only on you. But you just never clean the blood out of it. Do keep the makeup though, it suits you. See you soon~"

"Hey! You left your makeup at my apartment. And no, before you ask, you're not practicing putting it on me again. I don't know how or why management doesn't take any issues with you looking like a clown when I can't even wear a yellow tie instead of this damn black one. Make sure you swing by tonight to pick it up. I'll see if I can get something cooking, we can watch those silly shark movies you love so much. I'll even let you rewind and rewatch those death scenes. It's a promise."

"Everything alright T? I know we're not allowed to ask questions about all this, especially not on my lunch break, but I heard about the Sheriff. I know you're a tough motherfucker and probably got out scot-free but I haven't seen you at lunch for a couple days now...or at my office. Your new M60 is still here, I set aside the crate for whenever you've got the time. I'll have to get your reaction to this thing on camera. Either way I'll be busy with the new influx of shipments we've been getting from our new CEO so just stop by my apartment whenever you get the chance. Key is where it usually is. Stay safe, okay?"

"Hey, guess you're still not answering your calls. Didn't want to flood your inbox, not like you check it anyway. I know you're out there somewhere. Kicking ass and clowning around as per usual. Heard from a coworker of mine that you might have started a side job as a DJ for another department? That's the first I've heard of it...but for what it's worth, I think you'd be a damn fine musician. You don't have to call back or respond if you don't want to. If you could just find a way to let me know that you're okay, I'd really appreciate it. No hard feelings or anything. It's a promise."

"It's your marshmallow again, or whatever the hell you call me on this system. I...I, uh, just wanted to update you on some news. I've been promoted again. Going to be enrolled in the A.T.P. The Auditor has been on our ass about it. I think it stands for Accelerated Training Protocol or something. For once I actually agree with the guy, we really need to step up our game if we want to put a stop to whatever hell Hank and his cronies have been letting loose here in Nevada. Hopefully the chaos hasn't reached wherever you are because it is an absolute madhouse. Actually thinking about it, that's just the place you'd get a kick out of. Not me though. I don't really think I'll ever adjust to the red sky. Anyway, I'm going to be gone for a while. Meaning, well. Meaning that this is probably the last time I'll be leaving a message. Got plenty on my plate now. I know that you do too, probably part of your reasons for being gone. There's always something going on in that beautiful noggin of yours. But I just wanted you to know that I really miss you. So just stay safe, take care of yourself, and don't do anything stupid. For me."

"Hey! You've reached Mellow's inbox, I'm away from my phone at the moment. If you're needing firearms, you'll have to call the A.A.H.W's quartermaster's office during open business hours. I'm on shift from 2-10 P.M so you can reach me then! Outside of that, just leave a message, your name, and number and I'll get back to you whenever I've got time. Thanks for calling, stay safe out there."
