[Lup knows how to handle nerds, alright. She's spent the last hundred years dragging her husband out of his shell and out into the world with her, away from his anxieties and his isolation.

She can do it for Fiddleford too when he needs that push.]

oh def for sure
but im picking the color and style
i dont trust you with fashion for a second

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

So no fringe then?

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

maybe a lil fringe

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

What about beading. Thoughts on beading?

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

beading is vetoed
fringe is as far as i go bucko

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

Well I suppose the most important thing in friendship is compromise and all. I can survive on fringe alone.

[This is... wow, this is nice. He hasn't had someone he can just kind of fuck around with since Eddie and Rohan both disappeared and he's missed it. He had that with Ford, before, but his relationship with Ford now is still fragile and strained and he can't let himself get that comfortable. He's trying, but it's slow. With her there's no backlog of bad feelings to air out.]

Not that I've actually worn fringe since college.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

friends with fringe benefits

[It's all about that Taaco brand, fucking around and having fun and never taking anything too seriously. (Until you do and then it's too late anyway.)]

gross TMI babe

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

How is that TMI?

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

trust me
it is

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

What's TMI about it, that I went to college or that I wear jackets?

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

oh my god
ur disgusting
watch ur mouth before i tell barry you said that

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

I feel as though there is something fundamental here that I'm missing.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

blocked

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

Is this an elf thing

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

youre an elf thing

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

Actually the times I played DD&MD I'd usually roll a halfling.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

[what is this. what are these letters.]

did you just forget how to type in common?? cuz none of that shit makes sense

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

I guess they don't have tabletop in whatever fantasy world you're from. DD&MD is a game I used to play. Dungeons Dungeons and More Dungeons. You make up characters and then send them on adventures. And you can make an elf if you want but I usually didn't.

Not that I don't like elves but it's hard to get into the headspace of a graceful and beauteous child of the forest [And Ford better be proud of him for remembering what the fucking core book says] when you've got a nose like I do. Always found it way easier to go with the race that'd whomp you with a frying pan and then cook you lunch by way of apology. That's more my style.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

"you can make an elf"
wow okay that sounds real racist

tho at least they got the graceful and beauteous part right

so you do what just
talk about going on adventures instead of actually going on them?

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

I didn't mean any offense. It's sort of like writing a story except you do it with a couple of other people all together round-robin. Sometimes folks make characters that aren't the same race as them. It's for fun, that's all. And where I'm from all the magic and elves and dragons and all, they don't really exist.

Alright actually amend that, they -might-, but most folks don't know about it if they do. You can't go on that kind of adventure in real life where I'm from.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

its fine fam
im just joshing you
like i give a shit ;)

but i think i get the picture
its just like more lame larping right??
playing out all those non sexual fantasies that nerds are so horny on the main for

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

Oh. Alright. It's difficult to figure out if someone's joking with me or not over text and all. And I wouldn't want to be accused of being insensitive.

And yes, it's incredibly lame, but it's fun.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

dont worry
youll know when im pissed
im not exactly subtle

<teslacoils>

[terribibble]

Good. It's a lot easier with the guesswork taken out of things.

[Less, y'know, anxiety-inducing. He can get into that.]

So I'll just assume you aren't cross with me unless you come right out and say it.

<HotterTwin>

[restinglichface]

thats a pretty safe bet
i try to keep shit as direct as possible

and yknow u can always ask and ill give it to you straight
but we good
