[It takes a little while to get to him-- Mabel sends it via flying pig courier, and neither the girl nor the pig had any real idea where his office was. Mabel had even sort of neglected to get his name except via network tags. But eventually! Eventually he gets a very official looking envelope with a very official bit of paperwork contained within.
Mabel Pines has no idea what a cost/benefits analysis is.
But she does know that when it doubt, send gifts. So along with the paper comes a six pack of fancy cream soda in various flavors. A further gesture of apology, to help mend clone-Pines relations. ]

[ Hah. Never let it be said that Mark isn't an asshole, but also never let it be said that Mabel Pines can't win over even the assholiest. And so he gets that, and in spite of himself he laughs (not in public, god not in public, let it never be revealed that he actually laughed) and then he texts her back: ]

[ Hard to argue with. ]

Why don't we figure out their delivery capabilities? Maybe try to deliver things to 100 people in one hour.

Yeah, envelopes is a good first step. Then we can move up to packages. Best would be if we could turn this into a transportation service, getting people to places.
they're pretty good at being golfcarts!!
and little submarines

[ Mark's heart squeezes when he hears this. And he responds at once - because he can't take it for granted - ]
Who?
Who?
[ A long pause. One moment, two, three, four -
And then a laugh. A loud crack of a laugh, a little unhinged but completely gleeful. He contains himself a moment later, saying - ]
We need to confirm it. It could just be a trick.
