Aren’t you just the sweetest thing, bae? But yeah, no, I’m down for just about anything, ya know? Especially if you’re volunteering to help a girl out. 

That’s a hard yes, sweet thang.Name the time and place, and I’ll be there. After all, I still gotta thank you for the other day. And I get the bonus of hanging out with a cutie like you. It’s a win win- at least for me.

Oh, I wasn- well... I guess I sort of was volunteering, heh. 

What about tomorrow night? I suppose at your favorite bar, Johnny’s, was it? Why mess with something that you already seem to like? Un-unless there’s someplace else you’d like to go?

[subnathan]

harpersinclair‌:

Hmu? Hit me up, bae 😘😘 and that invite is hella standing for you. Yeah, totally though- what kinda work are you offering? Plus, like, I owe you a freebie, don’t I? You being such a sweetheart to me the other day and all. And cute af to boot.

Ah, okay, yeah I’ve heard that one before. Oh, I’m.. I don’t have any work but I was just- if you gave some kind of idea, I could keep an eye out. Or an ear, as it were. 

Is, uh.. is that invite still available?

[subnathan]

harpersinclair‌:

Y’all, I need a change, so if anyone knows of any businesses that are hiring or that have any openings, hmu! I’ve got a good chunk of free time and wouldn’t mind the extra cash, tbh. 

I’ll even throw in a drink at Johnny’s and everything.

What does ‘hmu’ mean? But, uh, if you’re still looking, which of course you are since you just spoke about it, um- what kind of work are you looking for?

Well, it’s why I’m the office manager I suppose. Bring cookies in, organize the board, organize blood drives. Or Bobbi just loves me.

I’m surviving. I’m slowly creeping up on a year of being claim-free and it’s interesting. The taxes are a bitch to do on my own. How’re you?

All of the above, maybe. You shouldn’t sell yourself short. You’ve always had a good eye for planning.

A whole year, wow. I’m only two months in. But uh, keeping busy I suppose. Trying to understand my new normal and all that.

In light of what’s happening around this world, whether exaggerated or not, Bobbi and I have arranged for a blood donation van to be stationed at Katz Garage tomorrow from 9 am till 1 pm! As the state of the union address called for, we’re hoping to get a good amount of blood donated towards helping those currently…afflicted in hopes of curing them. If you have any questions feel free to ask me and I’ll answer to the best of my ability.

It’s a smart idea, the blood drive. Even if not used for this thing, but also just in general. We can never have too much blood saved for emergencies. How are you doing, Ophelia? You seem better.

Yeah but there’s..I dunno, a lil’ bit of a clock tickin’. I’m 26, y’know? Kinda nearin’ 30 and ya girl hasn’t done anything productive. Sometimes it’s aight, sometimes I don’t care, but other times I kinda do. I guess societal expectations grab me by the boob sometimes and that’s when it hits me. Call yourself an old man again and I’m gonna flick you in the nose. Uhhhh, food. How’s about italian? 

PRIVATE: I…Jeez, I don’t..I mean, I don’t have a frame of reference for this..But I’m sorry it went down like that. In my real humble and also spectacularly correct opinion, you deserve a lot better than somebody who gives up when the other is strugglin’. 

Depends what you consider productive. It doesn’t always have to mean a degree or a high-paying salary. To many, having a happy life is what they would consider productive. I’m a supporter of higher education, obviously given my job, but I also know it doesn’t fit for everyone. I’m sure you know all that. And if you get to complain about your age, then I get to complain about mine. Italian is great. I’ll make some baked ziti and eggplant parm. 

PRIVATE: It’s all right, Malia. Like I said, it was for the best and it wasn’t.. she didn’t give up. It’s not like you think. And she deserved better than what I was for her.

Asher: You're chill, dude. Take a coupla deep breaths.

Asher: Twenty to get in, fifty minimum to participate. But I gotta figure out whether or not I'ma let you in, so first fight is free.

Nathan: Right, sorry, yes. Calm.

Nathan: Whethe- oh, I didn't realize exactly that there was an audition process. What exactly will help me get in? Or is that cheating?

sms / nathan & asher

Asher: Ya ain't gotta be that discreet lol, just say the club, it'll make it easier.

Asher: But yeah, we're meetin at our usual time.

Nathan: Do you have.. plans?

[subnathan]

sms / nathan & asher

Nathan: Do you have any plans for this week?

[subnathan]

maliafahey‌:

No, yeah, I get you. Maybe it’ll take me some time to consider it ‘cause it’s a lot of pressure but I appreciate the shout-out. If I swing by sometime next week to like, check stuff out, think we can go get lunch? 

PRIVATE: Oh..that…sucks. People..seriously end claims ‘cause of that? What about like…feelings? Like, I’m not tryna shit on your ex, I’m just tryin’ to understand. 

Of course. Take your time, you’re still plenty young. Oh. Uh, if you want to spend lunch with an old man, then sure we can do that. What do you like?

PRIVATE: I-uh, no, it’s more um.. it’s more complicated than that. She was right to do it. Things had gotten... harder. And she- well, she was bedridden. She needed someone who could take care of her so I- I get it.

harpersinclair‌:

That you’re hella cute- specially in that cute, bookworm kinda way? Becuase thats just a stone cold fact, babe.

Forgive your boldness about asking about my boldness? I suppose I can, this once. And yeah, pretty much. I’m just that fun to be around. Why, need a bit of an energy boost? Trust, I’m a lot more fun irl.

Oh, I meant.. more that I need to loosen up but um.. thank you? You’re very, um.. you’re quite attractive yourself, Miss.

Heh, I didn’t realize that, but I guess, yes, that’s sort of what I asked. I wouldn’t want to bring down your mood. I’m not much of a nightlife person, I’m afraid.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – tossing people into situations that has great potential for harm if treated irresponsibly is a terrible idea. And the classes are great, I’m sure, but we all know how much of what we studied in school we actually apply to real life.

Well, I like to think that the classes have improved on that somewhat since we were in school. There’s more emphasis on practical experience and not just theory and history. I hope it makes keeps them awake at least.

[subnathan]

harpersinclair‌:

Late? It’s still early, babe~ You gotta loosen up- class or otherwise. Even if you got that cute book worm vibe going on. 

Me? Ofc! I’m always able to get home, sweet thang. Though, if you wanna take me home, I wouldn’t say no. 

I- oh, well, if that’s what you think, I’m sure others wouldn’t disagree with you. 

Forgive my.. boldness, but are you always this... energetic? Not that there’s anything bad about it of course. Just.. curious.
