Summary:

they're using an app on which you can change each others names so...
a guide to usernames:
Darcy - theegg
Tara- listenstogirlinred
Nick- la bicycle
Charlie- Cutedrummerboy
Aled- lostinspace
Tao- beanie
Elle- Ellesmells
not 100% happy with characterization so any oddly specific headcanons are welcome
i've realised that whilst editing i deleted a a message from Aled which sort of started a whole conversation so please imagine that it says
lostinspace: i was thinking of applying for that institute place? the magnus one?? sorting out archives sounds like it would be easy. but my backups the library.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)
