[Wade's been waiting his entire life for this joke. And no, no one will ever appreciate it, and maybe you, too, dear reader, will not even give a hearty, sensible chuckle at it. It is a chance Wade is willing to take.
But sometimes a man's gotta do something entirely for himself, no matter how fruitless an endeavour it is.
Which is why when Wade eventually gets the phone up to his ear after several very, very long seconds of ringing, it's about ten seconds longer than it usually takes him to answer. It's mostly because the knot that was holding his left arm was particularly tricky to get out of, and he did need to sacrifice an entire wrist of skin to do it. But he's not just gonna leave his phone ringing! What if it's that new sofa he ordered? He squeezes the phone between his shoulder and cheek, glances at the number, and opens it up.] Hey, Karen! What's up? [His feet wiggle where they're tied tight enough to the chair he's sitting in that they're definitely tingling with numbness. He's not sure how long he's been here, but it's longer than it takes most raiders to at least blow his brains out the first time.] I'm a little tied up right now, so can you make it quick?
