Masking as a singlet is pissing me the fuck off. We finally got a leader who is letting us unmask and.... what? It's so fucking awkward. Lyke people ask stupid questions like "do you have your systemmates come over?" Uh? No? Lol They're already here. Come over from where? The other room in the Mindspace? I guess lol. "Emillie come over" and Emillie floats lyke a total of 5 yards around the corner. Okay, ey's here! Lol If "come over" means take 10 steps towards me lmao. Or wing flaps? hover bobs? Yes, I guess take 10 hover bobs towards me.
And then I try to explain lyke for example that I haven't played Minecraft, but lyke the coworker goes "oh yeah, it's been a while" lyke uh I don't think I played Minecraft in over a year maybe? Girl I been busy! But she is referring to when Emillie played Minecraft. Emillie plays minecraft at least once a week (because it's how ey get eir social time) but lyke now I have to go lyke "Oh no, my /systemmate/ plays Minecraft, cuz we share a computer, you see?" and then she goes "Oh does your systemmate come over?" Uh..... no..... so I said some bs like "Oh y'know my systemmates are never too far away." and she was clearly confused by that but lyke....
In my defense okay. I already told them they're systemmates. If they don't know what that is, it's not actually my job to explain this shit, you see? Would it be easier if I just did? Well, that's complicated. Would it be easier for my coworkers? Yeah, definitely. Would it be easy for me? Fuck no. Lyke girl. Y'know what normies think when you tell them you're plural? I don't! I never told no normies I was plural! I only hang out in plural spaces /because/ they get me.
But they probably think we belong in a mental hospital! Or we're lying. Or some shit. And if the wrong person overhears, we about to get fired! I don't want to be fired, man, our etsy shop isn't good yet.
Lyke what the fuck do I do? Genuine question!
Tell them over text.
Great idea, Flare. Thank you. I knew I married you for your utter stupidity.
(You kinda did lol) But right? Don't most people lyke send over some informational explanation?
Fuck. And also fuck no, I'm not doing that.
I dunno, I mean you either write something yourself or.....
Or...?
Well, I'm saying. You gotta tell them. If masking is the issue, the next step in unmasking is explaining to people who want to understand more.
Yeah explain my pink slip to your kid.
Listen, okay? I don't know.
You don't know? Shoulda kept your mouth shut.
That's not what you said last night.
Okay okay okay okay okay.
