[bothbarrels]

Oh, okay

I'm glad you decided to come clean

He was incredibly upset when he showed up last night

[ownperson]

yeah i'm

not surprised

i re-lived that memory twice last time this memory shit happened and it's uh

i'm sorry he had that sprung on him w/o me telling him first

i shoulda, but

[ She wanted one friend to not be judging her right off the bat. Selfish choice, really. ]

[bothbarrels]

That would definitely have been preferable

I guess I'll have to ask him about it when he gets here

[ownperson]

yeah i know york's a good guy i actually kinda like him so i fucked up bad

he'll tell u more i'm sure i just wanted to let u know y'know

[bothbarrels]

Thank you for that

I'm kind of surprised he didn't rip your head off

[ownperson]

no yeah i'm with you there

he's literally like, too nice i stfg

he did start off p fucking angry tho. and i think i overwhelmed him a bit

did not expect there to be more to it than the you thing. not a place i wanted to exceed expectations but here we are

[bothbarrels]

More to it then the me thing?

[ownperson]

told him the wash thing too

and some shit from the rig

covered all my bases this time

[bothbarrels]

Oh, I see

That was probably wise

[ He's not sure he's ever told her she did something wise before this. ]

[ownperson]

[ There is absolutely a doubletake on her end. ]

we're hitting all sorts of firsts since we got here huh

[bothbarrels]

Very much

[ownperson]

anyway, i'm glad you figured your shit out

i don't wanna hear fuck shit abt ur sex life but i was worried there for a bit u'd get in trouble

and also that u'd be a dumbass abt york but i think ur that regardless of u making a move or not

[bothbarrels]

Get in trouble like how?

[ownperson]

like not making quota trouble

[bothbarrels]

Oh, that

[ownperson]

yes, that

and yes i hate that i have to even worry in passing about how much action ur getting but like i do not want u dealing w/ whatever they'd do to make u meet it so

i do, in fact, worry

[bothbarrels]

Well, that's sweet of you

I've been dealing with so much it hadn't really occurred to me to worry about you, sorry

[ownperson]

see i can be sweet sometimes!

it's fine u do not have to apologise for not thinking abt my sex life that is still very much preferred where possible

and i've got it handled

c'mon u know what i'm like this isn't smth i'll struggle with

[ She says, with one quota partner that she's only met here and her only back-up being 'sleep with the locals idk'. ]

[bothbarrels]

See, that's part of why I wasn't worried

I know yo9u can take care of yourself

[ownperson]

i mean me being capable of taking care of myself has never stopped you worrying too much before

but let's call that progress

[bothbarrels]

To be entirely honest the thing is things are different between you and me right now

[ So...maybe it's not. ]

[ownperson]

[ There's a delay before the next message. Right. That's the only problem with talking instead of not talking, sometimes it's too easy to forget. ]

right

guess so

[bothbarrels]

Yeah

So now York's coming over to talk, so I'll catch you later

[ownperson]

kay

talk later

[ Annnd now she's going to lie face down in bed for a while as soon as she gets back to the apartment. ]
