Here's a function to pass a secret message from one object to another. Using XOR, this is perhaps the weakest form of encryption. I have taken steps to make it harder to break using random nonce values with the password. If someone is able to decrypt one message, it will be easy for them to decrypt any other message. I've also added version support so that you can upgrade the script later and still have compatibility with older scripts using the same protocol.
