[6/13]

Just a couple of things. -I'm turning 25 on Monday and it seems like the kind of thing you should do something for. I was going to invite people to the pool until some things happened, but now I don't want to, so. I'm going to be at the Inkwell and will accept all birthday congratulations, gifts, and complaints about how grey water is super weird. Anyone can come, it's not like I run the bar. Unless you're that guy that threatened me, you have to stay at least ten feet away from me at all times.

[Water being grey now is not actually why the pool party is being called off, but it makes an excellent excuse.]

-Does anyone have any advice about explaining your sudden changes in behavior to people who know you really well but don't know what's going on with Retrospec? I can't not talk to my parents.

You promised to tell me the next time your band had a concert. That's how my number got into your phone.

[You know, in case Chuuya was concerned he had entered Shuji as 'Shuji★' of his own accord.]

okay good thanks for reminding sober me because drunk me would not have remembered to tell you

also apparently the guy who threatened you is one of my bouncers, of fucking course it is.

don't mind him.

Oh. Can he still stay away from me? Five feet? I'll move if necessary.

he won't actually kill you. promise.

If you promise, I guess so. ...I don't have to apologize to him, right? That'd be hard for me to do even if it's for you.

I mean he did admit to saying he'd kill you so no, probably not, even if he wasn't serious about it.

that's where you draw the line, though? what would you do for me?

[This is a little easier over text than in person, but only a little.]

Nothing lifethreatening? Other than that, I'm not sure. A lot of things?

oh, you just don't want to write a list in public. I see, I see.

It's kind of embarrassing...

[The crush the size of Jupiter he has, he means.]

alright, alright, I won't make you say anything.

no promises about in person, though.

In private isn't so bad.

[He'll still die of embarrassment though.]

you have my number, right?

or did I just get yours.

I've got it!

[It... may be saved as 'Chuuya♪' in his phone, but that's fine, Chuuya's in a band that's totally reasonable and not at all weird.]

use it sometime, then.

[TOTALLY NOT WEIRD. but hey, whatever, this is just for fun, right?]

five feet won't stop me from staring you down.

ZORO.

don't scare the kid too much.

Not that I'm not really incredibly grateful, but I feel like I should point out that I'm older than you?

wait wait wait

you're seriously almost 25

really

what the hell?

Swear to god.

and you still live in the dorms

With my finances it was that or live with my parents. Would that be better?

it doesn't bother you to live around a bunch of kids?

Of course it bothers me! It bothers me a lot! But I'm going to graduate from college or die trying, and if I have to live on the dorms I'll do that! If I have to work retail even though I hate it I'll do that too! I'm absolutely going to graduate with a degree, no matter what it takes!

if it bothers you that much why don't you get a roommate or something?

I mean, not that the motivation isn't great and all, but shit. I'd go nuts surrounded by teenagers.
