It's been a while, hasn't it? I'm afraid things are really quite busy here, and unfortunately our liaison has been compromised. Well...so have a lot of people, actually.

Are you still yourself if you're not the self you were? It's the kind of conversation we've had a lot of times, around here. I've always only been myself, but if I woke up tomorrow as someone else, would I still be me even if I wasn't?

I think rather than worrying about that the best thing I can do is focus on trying to sort things out as best I can. I'm a little worried, actually, but I think I can manage to give everyone a shot even if I can't fix things on my own or even with everyone's help.

But you can help! Or at least I think it will help if you think about what it means to be "you". It's okay if that answer changes or doesn't. Just hold onto that concept and don't let it go. And maybe tell other people what you think it means? Not like I'm saying you have to talk about that. I think usually you all just talk about anything, and I think that is also a good way to hold onto who you are and who you want to be. Sometimes I think it'd be fun, all those parties or little plans. I've never spent much time outside of these walls, did you know?

I don't have time to really ramble, though. Those of you who know what I mean, we're doing our best. Those of you who don't, you do your best too. Pay attention to the things you tell yourself, and I'll try to fix what I can fix.

Please take care.

Only to take advantage of the rest of the day.

It doesn’t sound like it. I wouldn’t go that far.
fiddlestick: (mild concern)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-03 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
What rest of the day? You're going to be at the library until 11pm.

If you say so.

[ oh my god kILL ME but in this case: ]

God damn it, I meant 11am.
Bullshit phone, I even proofread.
fiddlestick: (headscratch)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-03 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, never trust a phone not to autocorrect.
But that's a relief. 16 hours of studying is way too much outside of finals week.
usurpers: (ASS DANCE)

[personal profile] usurpers 2018-07-03 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
How would I be able to see you if I did that?
fiddlestick: (youre dumb af)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-03 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Well it'd be on Tuesdays, Thursdays and weekends I suppose.

Though if they really are just to 11am...mind if I steal you away for lunch after tomorrow's session?

Any day. Have any plans already?
fiddlestick: (oh yeah?)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-04 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm working on them!
But people are back, so I was thinking we could go out to eat somewhere.

A good study reward. Speaking of that, do you need any help with finals review?
fiddlestick: (crow)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-06 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm okay! My finals were in May so I had them done.

Then I can’t drag you with me on this unless you’re the one testing me. Can you?

Later, obviously. Maybe during study time some other day.
fiddlestick: (yaaaay!)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-08 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, sure! I'd be happy to test you.

I'll be sure to give the hardest practice exam imaginable!

That’s how I like my testing. Thanks.

[ and after a moment, he private messages elliot. ]

Did you notice anything off with anyone?
fiddlestick: (fuq what)

Levi and Leo are saying I was in the Air Force. They’re on the app but I think something’s wrong with them.
fiddlestick: (stop yelling heals you have regen on)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-10 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
The Air Force?

That's weird, why would they say that? Isn't that something you thought about as a kid?
usurpers: (Default)

PRIVATE

[personal profile] usurpers 2018-07-10 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
They wouldn’t. Leo would mess around but not Levi. I said I’d go check on him in a bit to see if everything’s alright.

I haven’t thought AF since before high school.
fiddlestick: (mild concern)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-10 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah...if it was just Leo I'd brush him off but...

I hope Levi's feeling okay.


[Leo broke up with his baby sister, he gets no such concern]

[ oh ]

We’ll see. Read what Joanne said again, it could mean something.
I still don’t get why they can’t just say it.
fiddlestick: (dot dot dot)

[personal profile] fiddlestick 2018-07-12 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know either...but I guess it wouldn't be retrospec if they just said things clearly.

[he will pause and reread Joanne's entry]

Think about what it mean's to be you....
