Did it work? Or did God via grandma stop you in time? [...] And that sounds really nice, but we probably shouldn't drive through the Riftlands alone at night. Also, I'm incredibly paranoid about impaired driving, just something else to know about me.
[...] Maybe. I don't know. I'd like to tell them, but now that we're not really pretending anymore, it feels more delicate. Like, I'll react really poorly if they react poorly.
Didn’t work. I think if you’ve resorted to lighting a candle to get someone to text you back, they’re not gonna text you back. But years later they campaigned for Andrew Yang, so I dodged a bullet. And thank you for telling me. That’s actually good to know, and right of you tbh.
I get it. Tell them when it seems right, and maybe you guys can have a belated bachelorette thing? […] It’s weird because I think of myself as […] the person you’re seeing before I think of myself as your fiancé, because that’s what’s real more significant. But I feel bad about you missing out on fun wedding things.
[…] Not much to do about it, though. Where did you want to watch the meteor shower?
Lmao, I'm sorry. That's not funny. But one of the biggest fights Cassandra and I ever got in to was tangentially about Andrew Yang. She told me that nobody cares about hydrate modeling and that I needed to be "more realistic" and focus on "real things." To which I very maturely responded, "What? Like you, you Yang Banging bitch?" And then I had to sleep on the couch for two weeks 😔
You don't need to feel bad. I'm assuming I'll still get to experience all the fun wedding things that actually matter to me: looking pretty, being told I look very pretty, carrying around a random handful of flowers imbued with mystical romantic powers, making vague and slightly threatening promises, exchanging physical tokens of ownership in a socially acceptable way, being congratulated for my ability to pull, thinking about sex while dressed as a paragon of purity. I don't need a bachelorette party. I'll tell them ... soon though. Now that we're actually seeing each other, I feel like I need to reestablish how important you are to me, but it's not like I can be all 'Haha, I was just kidding when we got engaged, but now it's serious.'
Anyway, hm. I didn't really think it through. We probably can't see them from anywhere walkable with the riftlight. Just making excuses to keep you up with me, I guess.
[…] Did you two actually like each other All of that sounds rough. Also depressing that people taking important chemistry seriously was deemed even less realistic than UBI happening.
We should just keep doing what we’ve been doing. I think after the engagement party, people got used to the idea of us being kind of crazy. We can throw another themed party at some point.
How about we sit and watch the Dome from your balcony? Better view than mine, at least.
That's true. Although honestly I think they underestimate how crazy we can be if we really put our minds to it. You should choose the theme this time and I'll make the metaphorical baba ganoush.
You are so generous with your time. Man, you must really like me haha. Let's do it.
I should start getting ready though. It's going to take me forever to pin up my hair. See you tonight, Jack.
