this is jinx

i cant find my friend. ive been calling her all morning because we were going to make a bakery stand together and she wouldnt answer me. i broke into her room and all of her stuff is there but not her.

i think they took her.
she wouldnt just leave.

who else is still here? who else did they take? i cant be alone here in this place right?

if u know me, please tell me who u are and write back so i know im not here by myself. its hard to know who is who with these things.

but dont send a video or call me. just write to me or the monsters will know where i am.

[He's about to ask if she wants want to stop talking, but he feels like the conversation will just repeat. Does he want to continue talking with her? Scott isn't sure, honestly.]

Then we can stop talking. I guess.

If you don't want to anymore.

question. if i come over to ur place. to see quentin, do i let u know first and stay on the other side of the house?

if im not welcomed, its fine. quen and i can figure something else out.

private.

[laserguy]

What?

[Does she feel bad about what happened? Scott's grip on his tablet tightens slightly as he remembers that day, mostly the gun and what she said to him. Even though he's doing a lot better now, it still stings a little thinking about it. Is it because she threatened him? Or how it sort of felt like she trampled on his problems after he was already feeling kicked? Maybe both.

...Of course, he hasn't forgotten how she placed her hands on his face right after either, but he remembers the Gun Thing more.]

No, you don't have to do that, alright? I'm not upset with you anymore.

[Guess that much is true, he's just feeling closed off and a little upset still, but that's fine, right? He can control himself.]

[opheliac]

are u lying?

private.

[laserguy]

I'm not lying.

So you can still come over and see Quentin.

[opheliac]

alright. thanks.

( and she'll keep her distance from scott because it'll just be safer and a lot less headache for everyone. but maybe she should back off the rest of month to be on the safe side of her "jinxing". )

let me know if your glasses need some repairing or need a new pair.

[He knows that things between them are going to be weird and awkward for a while and he doesn't like it. Should he try to reach out to her on another day and... talk? Like what Yu did with him? Maybe.

The uncomfortable and unsettling feeling that rests in his chest is at least lessened slightly reading that offer.]

Thanks. That would be great and everything, since I can't control them still.

[Obviously, but Scott felt like typing more than necessary.]

[opheliac]

okay. i got a lot of projects line up but i can make room for one more.

private.

[laserguy]

[Does her thank her again? Feels awkward, but the conversation is probably far from salvageable at this point.]

Okay.

If you start feeling weird again, you can still reach me and... stuff.

( reading this is nice to see. at least it shows that he isn't lying about not being upset with her. although, it doesn't stop her from wanting to keep away from him (and everyone else). after a few seconds of nothing, she finally decides to respond. )

ill keep that in mind. see u later, shades.
