( ... squints. )

isn't the better question "why is your friend lighting their sheets on fire?"

[acuerdo]

it's not on purpose... i'm not a pyro.

[advena]

i thought you were asking for a friend?

( kara, you do know that's just a figure of speech, right? you're a journalist. this is embarrassing. )

[acuerdo]

[it's so sweet that she's being kind enough to think that he wasn't actually asking for himself. if only he wasn't trying to save face by being anonymous, he'd thank this sweet summer child.]

everyone uses 'asking for a friend' ironically. are you new to millenialspeak?

This friend incapable of asking the network themself?

[acuerdo]

come on. you know damn well that when people say this shit they're talking about themselves.

i'm asking for me. anonymity is to save me from the embarrassment of everyone knowing by business.

[dedikated]

( Of course she does, she's just an asshole. )

Go through all the trouble of being anon, why even bother 'asking for a friend'?

...mick??

[LOOK WHAT IS HE MEANT TO THINK?]

[acuerdo]

guess again.

[what's that about assuming, barry?]

[speedforcer]

[well, his next guess would be len or sara asking on his behalf. but...yeah. let's not think about that.]

fiiine
any material can work
you just need to get them treated
the blankets in my lab are wool
household blankets are usually kevlar
or i guess you could go the pbi route

should I be worried that your 'friend' is going to start a building fire

[acuerdo]

not on purpose! trying to be like smokey bear. 'only you can prevent forest fires.' you know?

[killertrack]

I'd rather you were more like Billy Joel, would be more reassuring

Goodness gracious!

[acuerdo]

har har har.
thanks a lot, ice queen.

You're very welcome.
But in all seriousness, no fabric is gonna be completely fireproof.
Your best bet outside of the shiny fire blankets that come in emergency kits would probably be polyester.
It's naturally a little flame-retardant and if you treat it with chemicals you can up that.
Other than that, curtains in shops and theaters are required to be flame-resistant.
Might check those out.

come on, i don't even need to use my super secret hacking skills to figure out who you are right now.
you worried about friction burn in cuddle city?
do you have a sand bucket as a nightstand?

[acuerdo]

[dios. of all the people in this city to have seen this post...
why does it have to be someone he's actually worried about burning?

not that he and daisy have gotten there... yet.]

if you think a sand bucket would work. but personally, if i wanted sand on me, i'd go to the beach.

at least then it'd makes sense to get it in places that have no right to be sandy.

( Don't write it off just yet, Reyes. )

you could install a sprinkler system but i don't think that'd be much fun if you were just pissed in general.

Aren't all sheets flame retardant?

[ WELCOME TO 1963 Y'ALL WHERE EVERYTHING IS POLYESTER AND WILL KILL YOU ONE DAY ]

[acuerdo]

[YOU'RE SO 2000 AND LATE, GABY TELLER. GET WITH THE PROGRAM.]

My cotton sheets are definitely not flame retardant.

[myownwoman]

[ wow rude dead 2 me ]

Do they not make them like that anymore?

I must admit this makes me curious what you could possibly need them for.

[acuerdo]

nothing illegal, if that's what you're hinting at.

[inshallah]

No, not exactly.
