4th Time in Text

[knightime]

what do you while waiting for the sleep paralysis to wear off?
i mean it was kind of terrifying the first time
and maybe even the second time
but at this point its like the hugest fucking waste of time to be stuck lying on your bed waiting to get feeling to your fingers again
but now im curious
what is the longest you got stuck lying in bed for
like an approximate if you werent sure of the exact time

You're stupid, John. My talking isn't "rambly shit." The only shit is your face.

[heirterosexual]

[He rests his chin in one hand and just kind of smiles at him.] Uh-huh.

[knightime]

You're a dick. Why are we friends again? [He sounds pretty deadpan, but there's no venom in his words.]

[heirterosexual]

Because you love me. You know you do.

[knightime]

I wonder why, sometimes. [He gently punches your arm.]

[heirterosexual]

I do too, actually. [He returns the punch.]

[knightime]

Rude. No one needs your sass. [Shoves at you.]

[heirterosexual]

Everyone loves my sass. [Push.]

i had to reread this twice because i read ass first

[knightime]

Oh hell no. [He will wrastle you bitch.]

well everyone loves his ass, too. eyebrows.

[heirterosexual]

[Good.] Oh hell yes, I think you mean.

[knightime]

Well, he seems to have a lot of problems. [This is really weird. Talking about people who he thought were fictional but are actually real in someone's world. He'll never look at Disney the same way again.]

Alternate selves isn't really all that new to me, so I guess I'm a little desensitized to it. [Although he was always kind of resigned to it. But he's not really going to talk about that because it's better left unsaid.] Not really. You probably existed in my world as a normal person or something. It's possible you could have taken on a different name completely or something. [Not that it matters because the world got destroyed, but it's kind of a bitter sweet moment to think that maybe she lived somewhere at the same time as him.]

theyre either too stupid or wont take no for an answer
or a mix of both
not that it makes the situation any better for either of us

thats because we have a shitton of swag and they want a piece of it
idk they just chilled
chill bird bros and the what have you
they were especially fond of chilling on the wire i kept hung in my room

[restitchtime]

Yeah, in the end we're fucked no matter what the answer is. How familiar.

Huh. Maybe they could just sense that I really fucking hated them or something; wouldn't surprise me if they were assholes just to spite me. Not like I gave them any fucking invitations like hanging goddamn wires up in my room.

plz leave

[knightime]

You're so full of yourself, John. We all know that everyone pretends to like it so you don't have your precious feelings hurt.

[heirterosexual]

You're really sadly not convincing at all, dude.

[lethechained]

Yes.... He does have quite a temper. [As well he shouldn't, considering how many similar cases there are in the franchise.] But-- it must be very hard, living with a curse like that.

[There's a blink at that first part; one more thing to note about him. She's content to let it pass without comment as well. That next part, though, makes her straighten slightly, apparently quite intrigued by that idea.] You really think so? [Bittersweet indeed. She relaxes again slowly, looking thoughtful.] ... Huh. That's--.... [She's not certain what that is.] ... A nice thought. Even if it is sort of odd. [A her that's whole, maybe? And free-- but perhaps even that's too much of a dream.]

[knightime]

they sometimes knocked my photos down but idk
i had better things than to wonder why some birds were chilling with me
i guess maybe i could have avoided jade prototyping my kernelsprite with the bird carcass though
that would have been nice

[knightime]

Well, yeah. If someone I always thought existed in a fiction movie could actually exist somewhere else, it's possible you could have existed as someone else in a different universe. I already met an alternate version of me. I've met alternate versions of my friends. [And he's even had a hand in creating alternate versions of himself, to some extent.] I mean, meeting yourself is weird, but in most situations, it wouldn't be possible. This place just kind of bends physics.

[knightime]

You're just an ignorant buttface.

[lethechained]

[She nods, seeming to consider this carefully.] ... I suppose it really wouldn't be that unbelievable. I know quite a few people who have doubles here. [Her head tilts slightly, one way and then the other, her eyes trailing down toward her hands before she realizes she should probably be looking up.] I wonder what she'd be like. -- The other me, I mean.

[restitchtime]

I don't know, is that really something big enough to regret? It worked itself out in the end.

[knightime]

Probably a lot like you. I mean, I think you're pretty fine as yourself. I don't think I'd like other you as much as I like you.

[Oh shit. Oh god. Please read that as platonic. PLEASE READ THAT AS PLATONIC. It's so hard to be platonic. Fuck. His life is ruined. Why did he say that.]

[knightime]

i guess
at the same time i cant imagine being part bird is really all that great

[Not that he knew much of what happened with Davesprite passed whatever he's been told.]

could be worst
part sprite part smuppet would suck major dicks

[restitchtime]

[Rosesprite didn't really talk about things that weren't directly related to gutting the game. Rose didn't really think much of it - they were private people, part bird or not. it wasn't that surprising.]

Can you imagine? Every time you come up to ask the damn thing anything it just shoves its ass in your face.

[lethechained]

[She pauses, looking over at him without a word for a few seconds, then... she smiles warmly.]

Really--...? I don't know about that, but--... thank you. That's very sweet of you, Dave.

[Fortunately for him, she reads most thinks as platonic.]
