connorowen:

Not really. Kale is actually a big fan of making me cringe with them.

I bet they make you laugh at the same time though.

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

Artie, please. Can we talk about this… never? I mean, just not tonight.

Never is probably more accurate.

Fine.

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

Doesn’t matter. I mean, it does, especially with you.

It does matter. Me? What do you mean?

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

His wife.

Oh my god... I’m so sorry, Zane.

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

There was an unexpected death. Let’s leave it at that.

Who died?

[artiehamilton]

[text] If there wasn't anything to see, then I wouldn't be leaving. But it's clear you have feelings for him and I'm not going to be the asshole who tries to break up whatever you've got. I told you, if you need anything or if something happens, I'm just a phone call away. I have to go though. I'll probably lose service soon.

Text: Just because I have feelings doesn’t mean he returns them. Okay. I... well... good luck with everything.

I’m sorry.

[artiehamilton]

[text] You know exactly what I'm seeing, Artie. You're just not letting yourself see it because you're worried it will blow up in your face if you do.

Text: There’s nothing to see, Harris. 

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

What about mine?

Sometimes I wonder if you actually respect me.

I’m fine. Answer, please?

[artiehamilton]

[text] Well, you're a lot closer to that than I am.

Text: I don’t know what you’re seeing, but as far as I know? I’m about as close to a claim as I was when I got here almost a year ago.

[artiehamilton]

[text] Well, don't. I'll figure my shit out at some point. You need to focus on you.

Text: You say that like I have my shit figured out.

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

So you’ve been that good, have you?

Zane, will you answer my question, please?

[artiehamilton]

[text] Well, sorry I couldn't do that right either. But it's better this way. You can claim what's-his-face and I won't be there to distract or sulk about it. You can be happy without having to worry about me and vice versa.

Text: Worrying about you is something I’ll do regardless of whether you’re here or not.

[artiehamilton]

[text] I don't really know what there isn't to understand. I'm going back to Boston.

Text: Maybe the fact that you didn’t actually say the words, Harris. 

[artiehamilton]

[text] LET ME KNOW if you ever need anything, but I'm not going to just sit here and watch you fall in love with someone else when I have a claim to work on that now has to basically last me another 20 years.

Text: I... what? 

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

I’m sorry I’ve been distant, but how are you?

What tragic news?

[artiehamilton]

zanextriemere:

There’s nothing like tragic news to bring a new perspective out of life. I realize many focus on claims over the actual relationship, but I believe the latter is something I may desire. Still figuring it out, but with the potential end of slavery, it’s certainly the time to open myself up to the idea.

Tragic news?

[artiehamilton]

connorowen:

If you want to talk puns, you’ll have to speak to my husband.

Not a punny guy, Connor?
