I mostly just wanna talk since I'm bored af and alone rn and it fuckin suuuuuucks

> voice

[hellablue]

[Chloe's switch to voice is accentuated with a long, loud yawn.]

Well talk away girl, I'm here.

[And... sort of dozing off? But hey. She's here.]

Why're you up as ass o'clock all alone?

[strings_theory]

[Oh, okay, that works. She sounds tired if not out of it.]

Mmn. Carly gets up pretty early to go work on the mapping the islands shit out here. I'm usually up at ass o'clock anyway. Too cold to go work out, though... [Hence why high and curled up in bed instead? Probably.]

[hellablue]

Oh... well, that sucks.

Too bad you're over there and I'm over- [BIG YAWN]- here. Fuck, sorry. Still waking up. I could like... I dunno. Keep you warm.

[strings_theory]

[Is that a bit of a whine? Sure is. And the sound of rustling and the groan of a dog and a huff from her.]

I got Lilith at least, but I prefer body heeeeat. [She pauses a moment, hm.]

Still gotta... Get you two to meet properly. I wanna be sandwiched in tits, dude.

[hellablue]

I... [don't know how to respond to that???] want to... sandwich you in tits, dawg?

[ANYWAY.]

Yeah, I mean. I think I'm ready whenever you are... probably. What's the worst that could happen, she hates my guts and never wants you to see me again...? Ha.

[It's really hard to not sound insecure when you're half asleep and laying there with your eyes closed and suddenly thinking about the future.

But she sounds totally confident, of course.]

[strings_theory]

[Welcome to stupid shit Jolyne thinks that comes out of her mouth instead, better get used to it. That's just how she tends to be.]

Hell yeaaaaah.

You'll be fine, she's super chill and I don't think she's got a mean bone in her body. It'll be totally fine. 'Sides, you're hot. Which is only more points in your already positive favor, dude~

[hellablue]

Meeeeeh.

[It comes out exaggerated and whiny and the sound of Chloe whapping the gear can be heard.]

Don't be gross, I'm aight. But I guess I should trust you, or whatever. I dunno. So when the fuck are you making it happen?

[strings_theory]

[She should not be laughing, though it's a fond sound at least.]

Whenever she gets some free time. Since all my shit leaves my schedule open, hers don't.

And you totally are, don't whine at meeeee~

[hellablue]

[Chloe looks around for a second and finds a wrapper from some sort f candy, which she crinkles up beside the gear.]

What? You're breaking up, dude.

Anyway, just like. Hit me up, I guess? And maybe... uh, not at work?? Or at least when Steven isn't there, I don't wanna... ya know.

[strings_theory]

[Rude!!!! She's huffing and nuzzling into her dog, jeeze.]

Steven ain't gonna do shit, he knows not to question what I do. But I'll let ya know. And send anything new along if I get bored and artistic again?

[hellablue]

It's not anything Steven doing that I'm worried about!

I'm worry about what I'd do in front of Steven. Y'know, my boss, whom writes thy paychecks. I have an image to uphold... like, a professional one. Ugh. I sound like my mom again.

[strings_theory]

Yoooou are fucking adorable~ But fine, fiiiiine. I guess I can be chill there or something.

But you oughta know I make no promises as I seem to just attract trouble somehow`

[hellablue]

You're dating- I mean... not-yet-dating- fuck, I dunno what we are yet but- I'm trouble. It's me, you're attracting it. I know this about you already.

[strings_theory]

You sure 'bout that? Pretty sure I'm worse given the whole "kind of was in prison before getting here" thing and all that.

But I guuuuuess. ... Dunno what to call us yet, either. That'll be solved soon at least? Hopefully. God.

[hellablue]

Look, I'm not in the mood to whip my crime dong out for a size competition. It's not about the size, it's about the crimes- and how much I don't give a fuck, dude. All I care about right now is I still feel vaguely like the other woman, which is hella weird.

[strings_theory]

Fiiiiine. Not like I did what I was in for anyway. So it don't matter much.

That's fair, but I can guaran-fucking-tee that ain't gonna be the case soon. Just roll with it, babe.

[hellablue]

I'm rolling with it like a clunker fresh out the scrapyard.

[Which means she... is. Sort of.]

I'm starting to like you a hell of a lot, so all I'm sayin' is it's gonna suck if... I dunno. If it doesn't work out, or it's weird, or. What the fuck ever that could go wrong, because for me it usually does, y'know?

[The words kind of just come out, and fuck it she's awake now and she's sitting up, clutching the gear and trying to keep her voice steady, even though it frustratingly wants to break.]

It's gonna suck, because I get caught up in it and forget you're taken and I'm the third wheel. And then I remember it. And I'm scared to get my hopes up about it, because when it goes to shit I'll just be alone. Again. Just like I always am. And- and I dunno if I could handle that, because I'm not even over my ex and here I am puppy-dogging over you and- and I'm just really fucking fragile, okay?

[strings_theory]

[Oh, that's far more sobering than she expected and she's quiet for the longest moment. Luckily the light snoring of Lilith in the background keeps it from being totally silent.]

And I get that, I really do. But I wouldn't have gone this far if I knew it wasn't gonna work out. Like, yeah, I'm going to marry her but that doesn't mean I didn't slam head first into feelings here, too. Hell, if it's legal I'd shove a ring on you both in time.

Just calm down, I know this is going to work. I know what she likes and this is going to be a great match for all of us, 'kay?

[hellablue]

[God, she's already feeling a bit stupid for having such a cascade emotional bullshit flow out of her like that. She must sound so dumb, but she can't help it. She's been stewing on a lot for a while with no idea how to even deal.

In a way, she's coped with a ton by throwing herself into work and trying not to think about Anna, but now she's getting to a point where she has to face that. It's rough.]

Sorry... I didn't mean to go off like that, I just... have a lot on my mind sometimes. I'm glad you have so much faith in this, even if I'm paranoid as fuck.

[strings_theory]

[Hey, she's been there. She's been through way too much shit in regards to relationships to not get where she's coming from.]

Don't gotta apologize, sometimes you need to get it out and I get it. When I got a feeling in my gut, it's never been wrong, only reason I'm so sure about this.

But seriously, I do adore you outside of your looks and stuff, you know that, right? This ain't just some booty call sitch.

[hellablue]

[Chloe thwumps back onto her pillow, letting the gear rest next to her head as she stares up at the ceiling. Man, who knew expressing feelings could both be so stressful, liberating and embarrassing all at once. Not to mention exhausting.

Chloe lets out a groan when Jolyne says that last part, whacking the gear again.]

Shut up, I know that. I mean, you obviously have to like me a little if I'm getting ass o'clock tits, right?

...Anyway. Thanks. For real. If I had to deal with me, I'd probably be halfway to Lavender town with how hard I'd go ghost, but somehow you're sticking around. Even when I vomit all over you emotionally.

[strings_theory]

[A huuuuuge fucking mood, emotions are weird and she still struggles with them.

But, god, she can't help but laugh a bit.]

Ass o'clock tits are a sign of affection, yeah~

And you shhhh, I've done the same shit so I totally get it. Like, it's kinda nice to have someone who gets that shit. Carly's a saint but it ain't the same, if that makes sense?
