[He can't help it. He cringes when he sees who it is, because he's been dreading a continuation of their last conversation for days. He doesn't want her to ask, he doesn't want to have to think about it, his heart is in his throat.
The second he considers pretending to be asleep, though, he feels like an asshole, so he tightens his hold on Missy Elliott and braces himself. Here we go.

oh ... ...... ................. .. ................................................................... my fucking god whered this vaudeville malarky app come from and how do i unsubscribe????
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah nooooooooooooo its like talking to inverse color john but with better taste in movies! what dark gods from beyond the veil have i offended that i should be punished in this fashion
you're not using that right you know pity encompasses two different quadrants and one of them just so happens to correspond to what we know as traditional romance what I'm saying is your burn backfired
you're trying it with the person who meets an alien and immediately becomes enthralled in a lecture about different kinds of romantic entanglement a miscalculation
there were twice as many trolls as humans on that meteor and i was there for three years of course i know i mean i know the basics i dated a troll i couldnt really get away with not getting at least that much
uh you don't have to talk about this if it's weird or anything basic disclaimer it just seems like you're not into the whole quadrant thing so I wouldn't have thought you'd date someone who grew up with them
i mean yeah i had some concerns and it turned out i couldnt hack it i couldnt deal with her hatedating someone on the side even though to her it probably wasnt "on the side" its just part of how it works and it shouldnt have to be all furtive but she made it like that anyway? i dont know if it was because she didnt think i could handle it or if something else was going on but i got sick of all the sneaking around and talked to her about it and well yeah we called it off like a year ago
nah i dont really mind talking about this if its actually interesting to you its kind of awk but well to address the oliphaunt in the room weve both talked about WAY worse stuff than my failed teenage ex capades already
oh yeah I was kinda trying to give everyone involved an out to engaging in that if that wasn't overly obvious probably I just I don't know I'm nowhere near an expert and wasn't there or anything and don't know her or anyone else involved but I was just gonna say it sounds like there was just more issues going on than the whole quadrants thing it seems like I talked to this guy York a bit ago about like dating more than one person at once and how it can work and it can't but it takes a lot of communication I wonder if that's how it works for quadrants too
it's that time of night I'm just going on tangents you can like ask me something unfortunate or weird if you want I didn't mean to get all high and might dispensing advice or something

[Text]
yeah
i had some concerns
and it turned out i couldnt hack it i couldnt deal with her hatedating someone on the side

I was just gonna say it sounds like there was just
more issues going on than the whole quadrants thing
it seems like
I talked to this guy York
a bit ago
about like
dating more than one person at once
and how it can work and it can't but it takes a lot of communication
I wonder if that's how it works for quadrants too
it's that time of night I'm just going on tangents you can like
