Molly: FUCK! I HATE VOICE TEXT. Yeah, def farthest end of the scale ESPECIALLY now. Who would joke about something like that??? I’m dead serious and very late. And I’m NEVER LATE!

Tavi: YOU USED VOICE TEXT TO TELL SOMEONE YOU’RE PREGNANT?! DOESN’T THAT NEWS SEEM IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO TYPE IT OUT?! I don’t know, you definitely aren’t the kind of person who’d joke about that, but you could be mad at me or trying to teach me a lesson or something either because I’d assume I was the dad or because it lets me know you were also sleeping with other people! I KNOW you’re never late, I remember how that time of the month came around like clockwork every single time. Have you taken a test?! Have you talked to a doctor? Do you feel sick?

[yomolly]

Molly: I’M GOING THROUGH SOMETHING RIGHT NOW. GIVE ME A BREAK! Do you seriously think I would do something like that to you? And I’ve never slept with anyone else in my life, so before you ask, Don’t. I KNOW BUT YOU’RE NOT UP TO DATE ON WHAT SHOULD BE GOING ON NOW. I haven’t taken a test, I’m scared! That’s why I was trying to text Tabby! I feel sick but I don’t know if it’s like stress nausea because !!!!

[octaviuskrake]

Tavi: Seriously? No, of course i don’t think you’d do that to me. But it’s almost as hard to believe that you’re pregnant. Maybe that’s just because I don’t want to believe it since I always thought the first time we’d go through something like this… well, I thought it’d be very different. I wasn’t going to ask but like you said, it’s not like I’m exactly up to date on this kind of stuff anymore and it’s not like you owe me that information so. Yeah. But okay, okay, okay, that’s a lot to let sink in. I know you were trying to text Tabby but I’m here now and if you want to not talk to me about any of it, I’ll try and respect that but also, if you’re going to take a test, would it be weird if I was there with you? I’d buy the test and anything else you needed.

[yomolly]

Molly: Okay good. And yeah, I totally get that. I really can’t wrap my mind around it either. I mean, who really expects something like THIS after the divorce? I mean…if I really am pregnant, then I think it kind of is your business to know if there’s a chance that it’s not yours? Now that you know, I don’t want to leave you just like WONDERING until I figure it out??? So idk I don’t think it would be that weird if you were here with me? I haven’t left my dorm in like three days, so you buying the test kind of works out pretty well?

Molly: Please buy white grape juice also.

[octaviuskrake]

Tavi: It’s really confusing. And it makes things feel… I don’t know. How this is making me feel fight now doesn’t really matter though, not as much as figuring out what’s going on. And yeah, I guess that’s true, sort of, so thanks for letting me know. It’s just sending me so hard. Okay. I’ll get one to you as soon as I can.

Tavi: I still don’t know how you like that stuff but okay, of course. Is it too soon to ask you what that would mean if you were pregnant????

[yomolly]

Molly: Yeah, I completely understand that. I feel the exact same way and I’ve had longer than like ten seconds to process this. Alright cool, let me know when u get here.

Molly: Because I have taste buds, tyvm! What do you mean what that would mean? Like would I want to keep it?

[octaviuskrake]

Tavi: This is one of the times I wish I was good with words and not just lyrics because there’s just like so much to say. How long have you been thinking maybe you might be pregnant? Yeah, of course.

Tavi: I’m going to be very nice to you right because you might be pregnant but just know one day I’m going to give you the hardest time about your so called taste buds. Yeah, for starters. I know you always wanted kids but given the circumstances I’m not sure what you’re thinking.

[yomolly]

Molly: And we both know I’m not great with either, so BIG MOOD. Uh like a little while now, I should’ve gotten my period on like halloween but then I got distracted by other things and REALLY started worrying about it a few days ago.

Molly: People who drink kombucha are not allowed to voice their opinions on simple delicacies such as grape juice. I simply will not hear it. Oh um. The circumstances are the worst ever but like…I’ve never once not wanted a kid, especially one with you. So I’m really struggling to like…even consider not keeping it?????

[octaviuskrake]

Tavi: Yeah, it's been almost two weeks since Halloween. Shit. Shit, shit, shit.

Tavi: Kombucha is delicious and nutritious and grape juice is just less evolved wine, but that's not here nor there. Oh.

Sireena: Yeah, I kind of guessed that. So it's no problem! But I did NOT guess I was the first person you've been with since you got divorced! That's wild. Especially given your stamina. Most guys who haven't gotten laid in awhile don't really last even HALF of as long as you did! How long has it been since you got divorced?

Tavi: Really? Thanks! It's been almost two years now since the divorce was finalized, I think? And in the sprit of transparency, Molly and I did backslide a few times after the divorce was official, but you're the first new person I've slept with in what feels like forever and damn was it worth the wait.

Sireena: I didn’t mean we have to be a secret! Just we don’t have to make any grand announcements? Like you said we’re around them a lot so it’s bound to come out eventually? It can just be mostly OUR business until they catch on, you know?

Tavi: Right. Right, no, yeah, that makes sense. Sorry if I'm not that great at this whole "figuring it out" part. To be honest, you're kind of the first person I've been with since I got divorced.

TEXT 🙃 MOLVI

Molly: Oh my gosh, that goodness! I wanted to send you almost the same thing almost word for word but I was just so worried that it might make you mad and sad at me all over again! I'm sorry too, Tav. Sorry for not realizing that we weren't on the exact same page when we started doing...stuff again and I'm sorry for my response to you telling me about your feelings. Even though I can't reciprocate them anymore I would NEVER want to make you feel silly for yours. Especially at the cost of our friendship!

MOlly: Also please eat food, drink a lot of water and take medicine before you go to bed.

Tavi: Kind of ironic that we're on the same page here but we weren't there LOL. And by Ironic I mean it in the Alanis Morissette way, like rain on our wedding day. But I'm just really glad you feel the same way, Molly, you have no idea. I wouldn't have minded a text, I'm STILL sad and mad so it wouldn't have made me that AGAIN, but I'm working through it because I get it now. Like. That's just not going to happen, right? So that's that. I know I shouldn't have told you the way I did and I know it was a lot and bad and weird but our friendship is more important than all that so let's keep it, right? I love you. In the way that I shuold.

Tavi: Thanks for the advice but I very much won't.

Sireena: Why do we have to tell them anything? You're awesome and a really decent fuck that I also think would be cool to fuck again, but is that really everyone else's business? The only one I even really talk to is Blair and she knows already.

Tavi: I just figured since we're around them a lot it would be bound to come out eventually and beating them to the draw might be worth it. If you don't want to tell them though, that's fine too. I can keep a secret. Especially if it means we get to fuck again. Because that was awesome.

TEXT 🙃 MOLVI

Tavi: Hey.

Tavi: I'm sorry.

Tavi: I really hope I didn't fuck this up with you and me. You've always been my best friend, no matter what else we were and I don't know. I thought we were on the same page and obviously we weren't and I got kind of sad about it. Kind of mad too. And the only reason I'm saying all this now is because I just drank like a whole thing of wine and I feel like if I don't say anything, we'll never talk again and that's something I could never deal with.

[octaviuskrake]

TEXT 🌊 SIRAVI

Tavi: Now that Blair knows what happened, I figure it's only a matter of time before the rest of the band does, so we should probably figure out what to tell them.

Tavi: So I'm just going to be super fucking honest because I'm tired of being a beat around the bush guy -- honestly, I wasn't expecting what happened to happen. I mean, I've always known you're hot because I'm not stupid, but I never wanteed to do anything about it until the party. And now that I've done something about it, I wouldn't take it back and actually I think it'd be cool if we did that again sometime. If it was just a one time thing for you though, that's cool too. I'd just rather know now and I won't take it personally either way.

Tavi: It is, and I love being friends. You've always been the best friend I ever had. And I don't know, I hadn't heard people say what our costume would be! And a five person costume is tougher than a duo. I don't even have any ideas lol.

TEXT 🎵 MOLVI

Molly: If you haven't noticed then maybe it's nothing and I'm just being paranoid. So nevermind.

Tavi: I'm sure you're not paranoid, it's probably more of just that I don't really notice a lot of the inner goings on in the band if I'm being honest with you. I like the other girls well enough but I think you're the only one I'd consider a friend there so it's not exactly social hour for me, and you know how I can fall into the music.
