JADE'S RIGHT. JUST. DON'T TALK ABOUT ROMANCE WITH JOHN.
AT ALL. EVER.

UGH I feel so bad about it all but
So mad!! Who just says things like that?! Especially when the other person's so passionate and wrapped up about it how can you go on like it's just

[just. gently keysmashes with her forehead. as you do.]
UGH!!!!

TRYING TO EXPLAIN QUADRANTS TO HIM WAS A NIGHTMARE, HE WOULDN'T SHUT UP ABOUT HIS BULLSHIT HUMAN MOVIES THE ENTIRE FUCKING TIME. I'M STILL NOT SURE WHY THE FUCK I BOTHERED, EXACTLY.
[Haha. Ha. Ha. It obviously had nothing to do with, uh. Anyway.]
HE'S A GOOD FRIEND IN OTHER WAYS, BUT YEAH THAT'S NOT THE TOPIC TO DISCUSS WITH HIM AT ALL.
[text]
And Dave said I would GET ALONG with him too what a joke.

[...]
I'M NOT HELPING, AM I
[text]
I'm just
Jeez this is so stupid
[text]
YOU'RE GETTING OFF ON A BETTER FOOT WITH HIM THAN I DID, AT LEAST? I MEAN, FROM MY PERSPECTIVE. SO UH
FUCK NEVER MIND, I'LL STOP TRYING TO DEFEND HIM. FOR ONE, HE DOESN'T NEED IT, AND FOR TWO, IT'S PROBABLY FUCKING OBNOXIOUS.
[text]
It makes sense that you'd wanna be all "only I can trashtalk him" and all but I just kept
Ugh no no no you know what? Never mind that. You really had a bad first meeting with him and ended up speaking so highly of him?
[text]
[oh god does he even want to go there??? no. The answer is most vehemently no.]
THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT, NO. I MEAN, YEAH SURE, TRASHTALK HIM AS MUCH AS YOU WANT? IT'S JUST
THE FIRST TIME I SPOKE TO HIM, I ASSUMED I KNEW EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM. OUR CHAT CLIENT ALLOWED US TALK TO PEOPLE WHENEVER WE WANTED ON THEIR TIMELINE, SO I CONTACTED HIM NEAR THE END OF WHAT I COULD OBSERVE OF HIS UTTER BULLSHIT.
I WAS COMPLETELY WRONG ABOUT HIM FOR A LOT OF REASONS. IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH.
THAT'S WHY I ENDED UP TROLLING HIM BACKWARDS.
[text]
So basically
first impressions aren't everything kind of deal?
[text]
WAIT HOW MUCH DID HE TELL YOU ABOUT THAT, EXACTLY? AND YES, THAT'S TRUE. FUCK, I WAS A COMPLETE ASSHOLE WITH JADE, TOO. AND DAVE. OK ALL OF THEM, EVEN I IF I DIDN'T TALK TO ROSE DIRECTLY UNTIL WE MET ON THE METEOR.
GOD EVERYTHING ABOUT THAT SITUATION WAS A COMPLETE CLUSTERFUCK, I'M NOT SURE HOW THE HELL I MANAGED TO BECOME FRIENDS WITH ANY OF THEM, LOOKING BACK ON IT.
[text]
Or well younger kids.
Anyway he didn't tell me a lot? It was mostly to explain how he met you guys and the timeline BS.
We never did finish exchanging stories about
uh
those things
[text]
EVEN IF JOHN APPARENTLY HASN'T CHANGED AT FUCKING ALL
IF YOU WANTED TO KNOW MORE I CAN TELL YOU, ALTHOUGH OBVIOUSLY MY PERCEPTION OF THE HUMANS' SESSION IS GOING TO BE DIFFERENT FROM THEIRS
UNLESS YOU WANTED TO HEAR ABOUT SGRUB, I GUESS.
[text]
How about
John's a good friend of yours. So I don't come away from this with this ANNOYING trait being my first perception, what are some GOOD things about him? Dave told me he likes bad puns and bad movies.
Both charm points if done right, in my book.
Besides that. What is a John?
[text]
HE'S BIG ON PRANKS, TOO. IT'S KIND OF FUCKING OBNOXIOUS, ACTUALLY, OR IT SEEMED THAT WAY WHEN HE KEPT USING HIS FUCKING FOREKNOWLEDGE OF OUR CONVERSATIONS TO "PUNK" ME. YOU MIGHT APPRECIATE THAT MORE, I DON'T KNOW.
BESIDES THAT, HE WAS AN EFFECTIVE ENOUGH LEADER FOR HIS TEAM, EVEN IF HE ALSO FUCKED UP AN INORDINATE AMOUNT.
FUCK THIS ISN'T HELPING EITHER, IS IT.
[text]
COMPLETELY hurting.....
You seem really annoyed by him too.
[text]
OK LOOK, FULL DISCLOSURE? I KNEW HIM AND JADE FOR LESS THAN A DAY BEFORE I GOT HERE. OR THEY GOT HERE.
I LIKE TO THINK WE BECAME FRIENDS BACK THEN BUT IT WAS THREE YEARS AGO, YOU KNOW?
I'M DEFINITELY FRIENDS WITH JADE, SHE'S MADE THAT PLENTY CLEAR, BUT THINGS WITH JOHN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A LITTLE WEIRD, I GUESS.
SO YEAH I'M ANNOYED BY HIM ON SOME LEVEL, BUT THAT'S NOT THE FULL STORY, EITHER. AND IT'S NOT NEARLY AS BAD AS WHEN WE FIRST SPOKE.
HE'S A FRUSTRATING PERSON BUT IN A HARMLESS WAY. DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE?
[text]
Yikes. I've got it easy, he just pissed me off in a very specific way, you have a bunch of complicated feelings separate from his bad opinions.
[text]
BASICALLY? YES. EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID.
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS SHIT SO EASILY, I DON'T GET IT. IS IT JUST BECAUSE OF THE WRITING THING?
WHATEVER, NOT THE POINT. ANYWAY, YEAH, I'LL... DEAL WITH THAT, I GUESS. AND YOU AND JOHN WILL SEE EYE TO EYE EVENTUALLY.
[text]
I don't know frankly. I've read a lot of books but it can't just be that. Something to think about.
But you're right the point is
Oh I don't know. This is all weird. I'm used to inheriting friends from other people though so I'll probably just learn to roll with it. I've gotten along with PLENTY of abrasive people before, what he said just
It a few bad nerves as I'm sure you could imagine.
[text]
[What the fuck does thoh right. Yeah, he knows what that is.]
I HAD A FEW FRIENDS LIKE THAT
AND YEAH, I CAN SEE WHY. SORRY AGAIN ABOUT HIM.
[text]
Whatever. If you can get along with him with all the history and hangups, I can too. Or at least not make waves.
[text]
YOU'LL BE FINE.
Re: [text]
Do you think talking out your hesitations with him will help? For you, I mean.
[text] 1/3
WE TALKED ABOUT IT A LITTLE? BUT I'M NOT SURE HE EVEN UNDERSTANDS WHAT I WAS SAYING AT THE TIME, AND IF I BROUGHT IT UP AGAIN, HE'D PROBABLY THINK I WAS STILL INTERESTED.
