[ Okay she won't complain about that. She ends up rolling onto her stomach to text him back more actively. She's glad he's actually happy, honestly. ]
There's all kinds of fun stuff to do too, which you pay for with the nasty doing
sei and i went to an amusement park. they have a ride that's just running into people with a car. they have bumpers so no one gets hurt but the idea is to just slam the car into other people's cars.
also i know like, you're still not supposed to get naked in public but i really dont think people care a ton as long as you're making chroma
wait until it goes on for long enough that you stop having nightmares as often
did you know it's actually possible to sleep through most of the night without waking up all the time
thats not even a pissy comment about you texting me this late (gross but i'm excited you get to feel like this too) but once you get used to it it's a real thing
[ His nightmares are... pretty hard to vanquish. I mean, "born in a nightmare" wasn't much of an exaggeration. It's going to stick with him for a long time.
He's not sure it'll ever leave.
But this place gives him enough distractions that he can live with that, he thinks. ]
so not to like kill the mood or be a downer but
does this mean you're rethinking the whole raven thing, or is that still something i should be working on?
you know i've got you either way, just want to make sure
[ She doesn't think they'll ever be gone completely. but she doesn't wake up in a cold sweat as often anymore, and when she does there's usually someone with her to calm her down. Not being under Salem's watchful eye has helped a lot with that, even if she doubts it'll ever not be a part of who she is. But it does make a difference. And she's had well over a year to work on it. so she doesn't argue or offer encouragement to that. She doesn't believe it'll ever go away herself. His home wasn't a safe place, and she never had a home.
But not feeling terrified all the time and knowing that it's more likely she'll survive the day- and pain-free- than not helps a lot. ]
I don't know. I've cooled down a lot and she would still deserve anything that came to her but...
[ Honestly, just having a place - his own place - to be at the end of the day where he knew he could just be alone was helping a lot. The fact that he never had to worry about making ends meet because ends were met by his own bad habits was a huge plus, too. It's almost like having one's basic needs secured is a fundamental ingredient in happiness, imagine that. ]
just think about it. i'll still stick around her to keep an eye on her.
[ She's almost 100% going to wake up one of her boyfriends with the audible "Eww!" that comes out of her lips at that statement, and she takes a moment to actually respond bc she probably has to apologize for that and wait until he's settled down to text back again. ]
too close
way too close
ewwww
are you into cougars or what
have you told yang i feel like you should tell yang you banged her mom
are they really cougars if they think you're a grandpa then, or are they just stupid are you into ditzes or cougars, now im confused
yeah yeah, i'm the older woman ...and gold-digger kind of that's why i have a job so i'm at least not totally just living off of sei plus then i can afford the nerd stuff chihiro's into if i have my own money but also i think i need to quit bc i kind of want to die every time i go to work
[ yoga instructor is not a job made for emerald. this is the worst idea seijuro has ever had. but he keeps turning down all of emerald's ideas. ]
i mean raven knew how old i was, and angela was a bit weirded out at first when she realized i'm like 16 years younger but now she's still totally down to do whatever so yeah cougars
wait why are you working a job you have two boyfriends you should be like set for life in this place
sei wants me to have other interests besides hanging out and housework and shooting things
ive been a yoga instructor for a couple weeks now and it is a special kind of hell i ended up telling my class that i run a silent class so that everyone learns to accept the energies around them and turn off their own which is fine bc i just have like a slideshow that has the positions and then i do them and then they do them but then the last five minutes of class when they're allowed to talk i realize they are literally the worst people in the world no marsha im not vegan and i dont think eat hemp hearts is going to improve your inner purity and if you ask one more time im going to shoot you so your soul can be one with the universe
i wanted to try stunt driving but sei said it's too dangerous
I'm trying to figure out if it's his low-key way of saying it's not good enough for his family (which I doubt he'll ever say but his dad is awful), he knows but he doesn't understand, or he's just a worry wart.
thankfully not your level of bad dad i'd do it for him if it got that bad they're like super-rich and powerful enough to put the schnees to shame though so they're so in the public eye i get anxiety thinking about it sometimes but i think it'd be hard to hide something like that
[ ...because that's.. something she might have to deal with someday. emerald doesn't like being the center of attention, thanks. her semblance isn't great in crowds and she won't be able to carry around weapons if she ends up going to Japan. She kind of hopes they just stay here in Prismatica forever, even if she knows that's impractical. ]
I know I mean he approved of yoga instructor so it's probably not that i think i'm more worried about it than he isbut he said I can't be his bodyguard because he can't date his bodyguard so I don't know also no security expert or fighting of any kind basically he's also a complete worry wart too though so it's probably that he made me bring an extra pair of clothes in case i got wet on the log flume like that level of worrier so probably right?
Yeah but what if I get to Japan and my aura doesn't work anymore? Like how Dust doesn't do anything in space. They don't have anything like that in his world.
I barely have more experience than you so who knows
I have to learn how to drive first anyway so who knows if I'll even get the hang of it well enough to do stunts
I have a custom one I want made, let's go costume shopping sometime.
