he hasn't posted in like 3 months, he's got a lot to say

[frostythehitman]

hey so
this is james barnes
i'm not dead anymore
so if anyone was still freaking out about that, well
don't, i guess

[ this is not a thing he thought he had to state but, well, apparently word does not travel through the grapevine as well as he thought, so. he might as well state it to the whole app at large. ]

anyway, first off,
if anyone needs help shoveling sidewalks or cleaning driveways or whatever after that snowstorm, let me know
or if you need anything else done even if it isn't snow-related
i'll do whatever you need for some cash and/or some clothes

second off,
does anyone know where i can get a fake id
i just need to replace the id stuff i lost when i died
message me privately if you don't want to talk openly on here

third off,
i got some new stuff about the founders i think
[ insert a link to a video here. ]
this is from that cavendish house last month
there was an empty book in there and i wrote down everything i knew about them and then this reenactment thing started happening
not sure how much of this is new vs old but apparently this is how it went down forever ago at the start of all this
i'm not sure how this fits into everything else we have so far

[Oh. A dead guy. That's...that's good to know. He'll ask the details on how or why
later...

This place is just full of surprises.]

So you're the other guy snagging up all those shoveling jobs Rean and I don't get...

Talk about a competitive market

Seriously, though, you really need clothes?

[frostythehitman]

well i'm not about to go running around naked in the middle of winter

[hauntedsavior]

Sounds like we have a bunker to track down. Unless we've already been there? Either way, good to know Clarence is just as big an asshole as I thought he'd be.

Anyway. If I had clothes that fit you, I'd be glad to donate. Glad to see you're back and that wasn't just fake, last month.

[frostythehitman]

didn't someone say they found a bunker a while ago already

wait did you think i was also an illusion thing last month

[spirithacker]

u can shovel our driveway
im not gonna
my parents pay people 2 do it anyway

[He is but a tiny Shinji and that is a big driveway.]

that one guy sounds like a jerk

[frostythehitman]

[ oh. well. that must be confirmation that Shinji's parents are back to normal and he's living at home again. So that's good. ]

good
just tell them to pay me instead this time
i just need to know where to go to do the shoveling

and yeah
jerk is putting it lightly
that's vanderweele

Hello, I think I could help out.
Give me a bit of time and I can have some cash ready for ya.
How much do you think you're going to need?
For...Idk, winter clothes?

[frostythehitman]

[ He doesn't want to sound desperate here, but... ]

however much you can spare
i'm basically starting over from nothing here

private

[godcards]

You know, asking for a fake ID sounds awfully suspicious, despite your claims otherwise. Don't they have government agencies that replace IDs?

[frostythehitman]

for a dead man murder convict?
i doubt it
besides it wouldn't work anyway
i don't look anything like i used to, no one would buy it

Last October, Matthews and I made it all the way through the Recolle Building when it was, lack of a better term, a horror show. Came out in a research bunker that held, among other things, a copy of a contract between the four Founders.

But also...

Re: 2/2

[standalonehuman]

[And it's a photo of Dad Face.]

Really? I told you that has to be the hardest way of doing things! You don't come up as dead in the public record!

Private

[matchbreaker]

[ Dead...

Christ on a cracker, she really had been distracted. It coils uncomfortably with her and- That said, ]

I've got all hell of things you can do around my house if you want but before that why do you need so much money or a fake ID? Can you just get a proper state ID, or is that not possible with your legal situation?

[frostythehitman]

i need money because i don't have anything but the clothes on my back right now

and i need the id because i'm basically unrecognizable now

[ which, yeah, Togusa confirmed is technically not an issue at all, but it's easier to fall back on that excuse than say "my family apparently doesn't care about me and I'd rather cut all ties than actually process any of that."

Not that he even realizes that well enough to be able to articulate it anyway. ]

[windeity]

not dead and still could use some work on tact.

[He says, as if he hasn't known James came back a few weeks ago.]

did you try writing anything down after that to see if they'd do anything else? i am not entirely sure what to think of it either.

[frostythehitman]

how the hell am i supposed to say that with more tact
i'm not writing victorian poetry here

and yeah we did
li-na wrote something else in there about the animals and weapons the founders all had
it gave us another lightshow with all of those things but vanderweele's staff broke everything before anything else could react

private

[usurpers]

[ goddamn it he was so worried— ]

I have a guest room if you need it, James. I live alone.
We can get you a job at the hospital once you have ID. And if you’ll let me, I’ll help you pay for what you need.

[frostythehitman]

[ ...god he would love to sleep in a real bed again. He is too big for John and Dave's couch. ]

i can take the guest room
but only until i find my own place

what kind of job at the hospital? i'm not exactly medically qualified for anything

[maidofmistakes]

Wait, what? You can just come back?

[frostythehitman]

well it's not like i was trying
it just happened anyway

[beastenderblood]

Damn dude that's wack

Uhhh I guess I could ask my parents if they need extra work done but I can't promise anything.

[And then, you know, super privated.]

might be able to hook you up

private

[frostythehitman]

[ he just slaps a private filter on the whole damn message at this point because he's not about to have two separate threads here. ]

i'll take whatever i can get
including asking with no guarantees

you mean you can get me the fake id?

[digthefuzz]

dude

you're back

[frostythehitman]

yeah
uh
hi again kurt

[ boy does he feel rotten for not telling Kurt about this sooner, WHAT KIND OF A FRIEND EVEN IS HE ]

un: goroshiba

[twostringsonebow]

[Ah, the dead guy... that allegedly killed Zee... Goro shouldn't interact, but it's. Increasingly hard not to.]

How tall are you? And what kind of body type do you have?
As a model, I often have extra clothes, so if things work out well enough (I can do some tailoring if not) then I don't mind offering some as well.
They'll be quite fashionable to boot.

[There's. Ulterior motive to this, admittedly, but. Anyway.]

I'd like to discuss the Cavendish house things as well.
Do you like coffee?

[frostythehitman]

i don't know how tall i am
i haven't exactly gotten measured since my
growth spurt
body type is pretty big though
pretty muscular

[ more like "bordering on bodybuilder" tbh but that sounds like a really weird brag.

He's also weirded out by this person wanting to talk about the Cavendish house in person. Why not on the post? ]

i don't mind coffee
if you want to get some and talk it's your pick

[fiddlestick]

[he takes awhile to respond, but he got some of the details about what was going on from Eren, so that works.]

Do you think you could move pianos?

[frostythehitman]

[ James tries to translate what he knows about his strength so far into moving pianos. If he can punch through a brick wall, how many pianos can he lift? He has no idea. ]

not sure but i can try
you need to move multiple ones?
