[pm, in Spanish] Mostly Yes. The rocks

[ user even attaches a selfie. she Does have to force her smile but it's all good ]

[pm, in spanish] Are you alive okay?

[vanishingreyes]

[pm] Well, it is what it is. It's fine. Want to get drinks when I'm back?

That doesn't sound like you, Wyatt. But I won't press. Unless you want me to. You know I'm here for anything you need, right? Well, except for some things (wink), but seriously. You're one of my favorite people.

[pm] Well then that friend sounds like a shitty host, hot or not.

No, it's fine, I have [...] other stuff I'm workin' on anyway. But I guess taking micro-naps in the walk-in is kinda frowned upon. And showin up late. Or not at all! You know, the usual. [ it is not the usual, wyatt is generally an extremely punctual and reliable person ]

[pm] It does make the thing with Teddy nicer, absolutely. I won't let him know you said that. He's lovely and kind and charming and very warm.

Oh, absolutely. Consider it done. Why you'd want me as an older sister is beyond me but

[pm] Yeah, he's never seemed like the relationship type. Which makes the thing with Teddy (which he won't talk about) almost nicer, I guess? I'll survive, it's just weird to think about. Not that I don't get it, definitely like a strange scruffy and gloomy charm about him. [...] He can never know I said that, alright?

Perfect. So I can like, formally adopt you as an older sister now, right?

[vanishingreyes]

I mean, I'm not. A believer, I mean. Magic's not real. None of this is

Mackenzie died because of something with a perfectly normal explaination

Eh, more for you I suppose. [User has to Google that] Hm. I'd try it. Hypothetical real-world magic, huh? Spoken like a true believer.

[vanishingreyes]

Anything else I can help you with?

Awesome! Thanks for the advice.

[vanishingreyes]

[pm, in Spanish] I won't ever go to Ireland again.

[user goes idle. he's still not doing very well, but he's trying to pretend to be better than he is. for wynne, who needs a steady hand. for nora, who he caught only a glimpse of fleeing the airport. maybe even for regan, whose whole life has shifted, or for elias, who didn't deserve what happened to him. he's not doing well, but he needs to be doing well, so he'll pretend. for xóchitl, too.]

[pm, in spanish] Okay.

[vanishingreyes]

[pm, in Spanish] Soon. Soon, I promise. [ user might be under a table somewhere ]

[pm, in spanish] When will that be? I'm at the airport. I'm at the airport, and there's blood on the walls even though I know there's not. There's corpses in the middle of the room, and everybody's just walking around them. And the house is empty, and there's blood there, too. And Wynne and Nora are coming home, but they need me to be in control and I'm not. They need me to be a person and I'm not one. I'm something else, and I'm something bad, and I I just wish you were here. That's all. I just wish I wasn't alone. You left, and maybe Rhett is dead or maybe he's just an asshole, and Teddy is in Canada, and Jade is into something and I'm afraid to ask what and I'm just I wish I wasn't alone. That's all. It's shitty. I know it's shitty. I know that. I know. I'm shitty, I'm a shitty person, but I wish I wasn't alone.

[pm] A friend asked me to, and it's a friend who is very attractive, nad you know I can't say no to someone so beautiful. Yes, I slept with her. Only once, which is a tragedy, but that's not the point.

You got fired? Why? Do you need help finding a new job?

[pm] Why'd you go in the first place? [...] Hey, since you're so bored, want to hear a funny story? I got fired. 🙃 I think

[vanishingreyes]

[pm] That's rude of it, tbh.

They could, and I am sure there's many who are, but I am very very very not Irish.

[...] Yes. Why?

[pm] It never gets what I mean :( My word rate is too fast, and if I have to speak slow then I get distracted by something else half sentence.

I dunno, I thought Irish people could also be brown. I'm glad though, nobody needs evil grannys :(

What about Did this friend happen to leave Wicked's Rest recently?

[vanishingreyes]

I'd say so!

So, not tacky?

[vanishingreyes]

That's boring. Food can be so wonderful. My mama makes Mexican dishes that just are home, and manman makes Diri ak djon djon that is more magical than any sort of hypothetical real-world magic.

I don't really [...] have much of an opinion when it comes to food. It nourishes the body. That's about it.

[vanishingreyes]

[pm] [...] I mean, we weren't a couple. But thanks for telling me. I'm sorry if that was weird for you to hear.

Only child to only child, I appreciate you. I'll happily take it, if you're offering.

[pm] Rude does seem to be on brand for him. And it would honestly be a little weird if he showed up one day actually smelling nice. Can't even imagine that. Yeah, I agree. [...] I feel weird knowing this and you not knowing that I know so... he told me you two used to be a thing. Just so it's out there.

I know you can. Only child, though, never got to do any of the stereotypical brother stuff.

[vanishingreyes]

[pm, in Spanish] Well, some stuff did I'll be home as soon as I can. Can we go for drinks? I could use

I need a

[pm, in spanish] Most people don't plan to die. It doesn't mean they won't. My wife didn't plan to die, either. My kid, my brother, my- It happens. It happens. It's dangerous. You're going to die, and Nora is going to die, and Wynne is going to die and What is there for me, after all this? What am I meant to do? How can I I just got to a place where I don't always feel like I want to It's not a good place. It isn't a good place. Something bad is going to happen.

[vanishingreyes]

[pm, in Spanish] I know this. I don't plan to die. I don't want to die. Why do you think I am going to die? I've just seen way too many fucking cows. Emilio, I'm sorry. I'll be back the second I can be.

[pm, in spanish] You can't help if you're dead. They're going to kill you. You're going to die there. Please. You shouldn't be there.

[vanishingreyes]

[pm] You can. It's boring here. I mean, the company is nice, but Ireland's mostly just 'eh'. I should be back soon though.

He's quite a bit of fun. Glad he seems to have your approval. Monsters aren't You two can bond over explosives!

[pm] No, it's [...] fine. Won't bother you with it while you're abroad. What's in Ireland? How's a trip like that a surprise?

Heyyy, I think I know that guy. Met him in the woods. Blew up a monster with him. Seems like a fun guy.

[vanishingreyes]

Then what food do you like. Since apparently it's not your home country's and not concrete.

But you still have opinions, right? Everyone does.

Neeps and tatties, deep-fried mars bars, cock-a-leekie soup... just all different beige-colored foods.

Can't say I'd be the person to talk to about what's good and what's not in the food world.

[vanishingreyes]

That sounds tolerably adorable.

Oh, that makes sense! What about those neon signs that light up? I found one with a cat on it.
