#life is good and it could get worse or better but i'm content rn at least

[metastablephysicist]

highlight of my week is sitting in bed with my wife while she crochets and i read and drink the hot toddy she made me. and the dog is curled up at my feet and it's raining outside. practice for being elderly together

[brittlebutch]

kind of astounding how innocuous conversations with my younger siblings can make me feel like dogshit... what are the good things about being the oldest kid supposed to be again??

[alexandraisyes]

How are you doing rn?

Thanks for asking! I'm doing alright, surprisingly.

No one is harassing me or sending me hate, and I appreciate that. It's quiet fandom-wise for the first time in months. I have a job that's damn near full-time, and it's eating away a lot of my time, but I'm making money and that's important.

I'm still doing character design for Reed/EC_Universal, which is really cool and such a fucking awesome opportunity that I am extremely thankful to have. I'll try to post some more of what I've done, so far I've done one whole evolution line for a grass type fakemon, and I'm working on moths now. I've got some commissions done, so I'm still chopping away at that. Free time is spare, and I'm usually spending my time off work doing commissions, designs, or moderation.

Speaking of which, modding for TSBS is going good too. Not too busy, not too stressful. Things have settled down. When I had joined the team there was a *lot* going on, a lot of changes happening in the server, if you're in there you might've noticed that Rockstar row got archived and replaced by channels. And of course the first TSAMS livestream and the "fallout" of that (those first two weeks of that were hell haha, sooo many new people).

I've been REALLY into rainworld recently. After I figured out how the fuck to play, I've been playing it a lot with @zthesheep (which you can join our streams on my server). I'm figuring out how to stream with a PNGtuber, and that's fun. I made a shitty one for the time being, a pop-cat type thing of my sona. Really cute lil guy, but I wanna make a better one later down the line.

Writing has been slow. Due to having a job I have less free time and less energy. I'm hoping I can find a better job that will give me a steady schedule, one that says I have to come in like 4 days a week for 10-hour shifts and then fuck off the rest of the week, haha. Nonetheless I have still been writing. I've been struggling with finishing the next chapter for TMiB, so I've been writing a quick oneshot with @dragoncxv360 while I try to figure out how to wrap up the chapter.

We got a lot of interest in my personal project, which is super cool, and I've been helping everyone who's join set things up and whatnot.

I'm planning to start learning 3-D modeling this spring after the holidays, I just need to get all the stuff I need done done first.

I'm still slowly catching up on TSAMS/LAES/EAPS. It's just that I have less time now that I have a job and everything else going on.

Overall I'm stressed, but not overly stressed. I am struggling with executive function here and there, but I'm still making ends meet. I'm fairly content with my lot in life at the moment, but I'm still gonna work to improve it. Especially since my current job doesn't offer healthcare, and I have no health insurance because of it haha. But things could be worse.

[lesbiansanemi]

2023 was genuinely such a good year for me, I really thought my life was truly looking up, I felt so happy and content and hopeful. I just wanna know how that turned into 2024 being genuinely one of the worst years of my life, I think it actually beat out 2019 for that title which I never thought would happen

I guess on the bright side that means that 2025 literally could not possibly be any worse short of like.... literally dying ig. Idk. I just feel like I'm starting over. In some ways, it feels nice. But mostly it sucks. I miss all the people I was close with, both the ones who treated me poorly and I know I'm better off without them, and also the ones that it's my own fault we're not close. I feel restless and unsure. I don't know what to do with myself.

Right now, I'm just telling myself to get ready for and look forward to moving to my new apartment. The other things can get figured out after that. I want and need to figure out what I actually want to do with my life and pursue it, not just depend on some magical person to hinge all my happiness on because it's bitten me in the ass time and time again, and I know it's not good for me, or anyone to be that person, despite how much I really wish it would work that way

There are other good things. I'm staying close to two of my closest friends. Work has been better recently? Idk, maybe it's because everything else is such a disaster that work truly doesn't seem that bad rn when in the past the reverse was true, but I'll take it. Or maybe it's because I'm in a different department? Idk, point is, I don't absolutely fucking hate it anymore, it's okay. Still not what I wanna do forever, but I'm okay with it for now.

Things are maybe...? Getting better with my mom? It's unclear, up in the air. But we've talked some, about things I never thought we would talk about, and she apologized for some things. It doesn't erase things or make it automatically okay, but... It's a start, and more than I ever thought I would get

Idk, I'm trying to look at the positives, and tell myself it's okay, but it's still hard not to look back on the year as nothing but a year of broken relationships and wasted effort that wasn't good enough, making it seem like all my worst fears are true and I'll never be able to be genuinely close with people, and any friendships, relationships, or family relationships only work out when I keep people at arm's length. I'm trying to tell myself that's not true, and in the past, my emotional unavailability also costed me some relationships, but it never felt like it was to this scale.... Also being so closed off made it easier...? It was like I didn't care as much

I don't know. Yeah. It just feels like I've lost most of the people I loved, and like the last four years of recovery from the shit ass childhood meant nothing. I crashed so fucking hard, and it costed me a lot.

I'm trying not to feel sorry for myself. What does that fix? But maybe I just need that for a while. Maybe I need to just let myself feel hurt and like it's unfair for a bit, before I pick myself up and dust off and start getting things together.

I don't know. I'm feeling a lot of things right now, and trying really, really hard not to regress back into an emotionless husk. I'm thinking about that one post that's like the worst part about getting better mentally is how for a little bit you're going to get so much worse, like how a caterpillar has to become goop before being a butterfly. It hurts, and not feeling anything was a lot easier, I'm trying so hard not to fall back on that old defense mechanism. I need to get through this, not just fall backwards

It just.... feels really awful what this cost me, and yeah... it doesn't feel fair. It doesn't feel fair that other people could fuck me up so badly from the moment I was born but it's on me to have to do all the hard work to fix it, and if I don't, it hurts other people. Why does it have to be on me? I hate it

Ugh. I'm just rambling. None of this really has a point. It's just kind of a stream of conscious, and I don't want to physically write it in my journal because this is a lot and I can obviously type faster than I can write and my thoughts sometimes get too tangled if I don't get them out fast enough in the right order

But yeah.... I think this is the worst I've been in a really, really long time. Honestly, in some ways I think it's worse than when I was actively suicidal and attempting. That part is passive now, but the self destructive urges are much stronger than they've ever been before, and now I'm in a situation where I don't really have anyone to stop me from doing them. Like idk. I've never felt the urge to like, very actively self harm, or drink til the point of blacking out, or genuinely wanting to drain my bank account just cuz I can, or want to try and sleep around, but now those are thoughts I have which. Ugh. Yeah sucks. And isn't anything I actually want, and I'm not gonna actually do any of those things. But still

Maybe I should try and do something small but more controlled to get the restless energy out? Like a new piercing or tattoo? For most ppl that might be kinda major, but it's not really for me. Or maybe like, take out a smaller amount of money in cash and let myself go spend that instead of wanting to rack up my 20k credit card limit?

I'm trying to do things that aren't actually self destructive at all to curb it. I'm getting back into jigsaw puzzles. I've started trying yoga? Doodling. Idk, things that I don't normally do and are engaging enough to like. Make me stop thinking

Idk. I'm just. I'm tired. I feel like I'm losing against my stupid fucked up brain and all its issues anyways, it's exhausting trying to manage and fight it. Why not just give up and let myself just be fucking insane. Like I joke sometimes like ppl like "haha yeah I feel insane" but like. Idk how to say sometimes it isn't a joke and I really do feel that way and it really does get just so... so tiring trying to manage it. Especially when it feels like there's no point

Because even though I know I should, and it is the eventual goal to fix this, but I genuinely do not give a fuck about myself. It was easier to try and contain myself and work on untangling the knot of my issues one agonizing string at a time if it was for the people I cared about. I wanted to be easy for them, and care for and love them in a good way, but like, I couldn't even do that. And now I kinda don't really have anyone to like... "be normal" for.

Despite that, I'm still going to try. Because I know that's what I need to do. Like I said. There's good things. And even if there weren't. Ugh. I feel worthless and I hate myself and I feel like there's no point but like. The point IS to fix that. So even if I don't fucking want to, I need to figure out how to get this shit under control and fix it because nothing is ever gonna get better even if I did find some magical person who is gonna do everything "right" and "perfect" and "handle" me if I don't fix it at the core of things which is.... myself

Idk. And like! I'm working on it! I like my therapist, she's nice so far, and seems...? To have a good grasp on what problems I've detailed to her so far. I have my psych testing in January and hopefully those results let me try more meds than just like, standard anti-depressants cuz those aren't doing shit

Beyond that, I'm still trying to be social with people. NOT be self destructive and run my life into the ground. I WILL be excited about my new apartment. I'm going to keep engaging with physical hobbies that keep me grounded. I'm staying in a familiar city with people I know and have established myself in

So. Yeah. Idk. Feel like I'm hanging on by a fucking thread but I'm doing my best to manage it and despite everything I'm not gonna let it snap easily. The only way out is through and I.... want things to be better. I really, really do and I feel like that's the first step. I'm no longer resigning myself to misery, and that's the first thing you've gotta do, right?

Boy Do I Fucking Ever (everyone get compfy)

strahm is one of those little meow meows characters that a part of me wishes had lived longer if only for the opportunity of gaining a better insight into their psyche. as it is, i can only work with the precious few little things we've been given (and, i guess, some personal headcanons) - but even those little morsels of info have me insane, so i guess it was sufficient

where to start. i love his self-awareness. i think that's one of the more interesting facets of this man. he is... he's the stereotype of a cop, a bit of caricature of one, if i'm being honest - he struts around like a million bucks, doesn't shy away from using aggression as he sees fit, doesn't give a fuck about protocol, becomes... so deeply obsessed with the case that it drives him a bit mad - and yet he's self aware. we know he's self aware primarily because one little scene, one little scene that loops around my head like a broken record: when, prior to one of the jill interrogation rounds, he unloads his gun and hands the bullets over to perez - because he Knows he's gonna wave that thing like a maniac, he knows he's gonna lose his cool, he knows he's gonna resort to aggression, like he always does. and it's the fact that he Knows that makes me lose my mind a lil in turn. it's the way he understands that his ways aren't exactly ideal, but he won't change. i love characters who won't change, be it out of stubbornness or something else. strahm is digging his heels in, he's content playing the aggressive cop until hell freezes over, he's perfectly happy in this role and will not budge - but all the same, safety first <3. it's so. i'd even go so far as to call it a gentle cognitive dissonance, maybe even some type of compartmentalization

(is he aggressive, though? maybe. maybe not. we don't know enough about him to say with certainty, but it could go either way. maybe he's really not all that much of a hothead, maybe he wants to make himself out to be worse than he actually is. maybe he's trying to uphold a certain image. maybe he thinks it's the only thing he's good at. maybe he's been putting up the act for so long that it really just Is who he is rn. or maybe he really just is a man with a horrendously bad temper, with his fists out 24/7 who likes to yell and enjoys chasing fear into his suspects. was he born being 'cop material' or did he fashion himself into 'cop material'? we'll never know! but the possibilities are endless!)

and also, i just think he's gay. this is in the headcanon territory obviously, as sexualities tend to be, but i think it just fits perfectly. i was acc talking to a friend about this just the other night - i don't think strahm is repressed or even has internalized hemophobia or whatever else (which i see sometimes in the fandom), i just think he's the sort of dude that doesn't think love is in the cards for him? blame it on a homophobic environment growing up, blame it on his (self) awareness of his own tough exterior and unlikable personality, or whatever else, i think he just very early on came to terms w the fact that his future isn't gonna boil down to 2.5 kids and a picket fence. so he went the easy route, married het to please his parents, buried himself in his work, lived the Cop Life with all his being, became an agent. had his ass divorced from due to this whirlwind affair with the fbi, you know how it is. played up the Bad Cop act until it sort of became a part of his being, until he could no longer shed that second skin & he embodied the concept. kept everyone at an arm's length because, hadn't he decided at the ripe age of 20 that love wasn't for him? of course he must stubbornly cling to the concept. he's too old to change. fuck it, it's not just romantic love - friends too. the fact that perez got as close as she did is a wonder

enter hoffman. need i say anything more. for the first time in strahm's life, he Doesn't Know How To Fucking Act. but also maybe for the first time in his life, because he's almost 50 and too old for this shit damn it, he just Lets It Happen. yeah he has exactly zero experience and no one has ever really liked him for who he is (or isn't), this could end soooo badly and he could fuck it up Horrendously, but he might as well. what if he does fuck up anyway? it's fucking hoffman, who cares if he fucks up. it's fucking hoffman, whatever they have is so far removed from normal anyway that no dating experience in the world could help him navigate this. and it works. somehow it works. "works", i should say. you know??

this got soooo out of hand jesus christ xx

sawlerinas (saw tumblrinas) i am genuinely on the verge of claiming saw v is my favorite saw. like. like i cannot keep lying to myself

[judeswhore]

You asked for some Mase fluff so, just for you...

Pain. When you know a person feeling physical pain it mentally pains you. Even if you don't know them personally. For you, you knew the person and it was ten times worse. Your sweet baby Mase, your boyfriend was experiencing one of the worst pains of his life all because of his wisdom teeth. He'd been sent home by Tuchel and was wrapped up in bed trying to get some sleep whilst his teeth torture him. Every smile is pained and if you could endure his pain for him you would but, you can't  and now here you are, in the kitchen trying to sort him some soup and warm salt water to feed him and ease the throbbing in his mouth. Once the tomato soup was hot, you placed it on a tray with a glass of apple juice and the warm salt water on the side. You threw some paracetamol on the tray as well for good measure before going up the stairs and slowly entering the room,

"Hi baby" you gently smiled as he rolled over to face you,

"It hurts, bear" he whimpered, breaking your heart as he squinted at you, and pulled himself to sit up against the headboard.

"I know, darling but, I got you some soup, painkillers and apple juice. If the pain still isn't soothed you can gargle the warm salt water because that will help the pain". It was an old trick your dentist had told you whenever your teeth hurt, and now it was coming in handy.

"Can you feed me?" Mason asked in an almost childlike voice. So, you did because I'd you could make him feel better in any way you would. He looked at you as you were busying yourself with the soup, intently watching your every move. You turned back to him, when  you'd gathered the soup on the spoon, and your eyes met causing a blush to rise on your cheeks,

"What?" You questioned with a slight laugh as you fed him, he swallowed and replied,

"I'm going to marry you one day. My mum always said the one would treat me like a king and here I am, lying in bed and you're caring for me when you have no obligation to do so. I love you, and I won't let you go". He stated with certainty, caressing your cheek and keeping eye contact. It caused your cheeks to turn a brighter shade of red and he tilted your chin, "never hide from me. You were made to be loved and I'm honoured you choose me to be that person everyday". He leaned in and kissed you slowly, before pulling away.

"Now, eat your soup, drink your juice and take the painkillers then try and sleep". You demanded and he chuckled, letting you continue taking care of him before laying back down.

"Will you cuddle me?" he questioned, whilst you traced a hand over his forehead and through his hair,

"Of course I'll cuddle you. Let me take the tray downstairs and I'm all yours. I promise" you said quietly, leaning down to kiss his forehead. You took the tray down as you'd said, returning quickly and changing into something more comfortable than the jeans you were wearing before climbing in to the bed and holdinh Mason as the little spoon, "get some sleep, darling, I'll be here when you wake up and I won't leave your side. I promise". You kissed his temple and he replied,

"I love you too. More than life itself". And with that affirmation, the two of you slept with content smiles on your faces.

i’m so HEHDHEVDTDBRHEBDHD rn

i want this life so bad i wna be there to take care of mason :((((( WHEN WILL IT BE MY TURN

also hello ur writing???? FANTASTIC i hope u post stuff properly bc if not U ARE DEPRIVING US OF UR INCREDIBLE SKILLS

9-1-1 S5 EP8

• So I had a lil mental breakdown so I'm a few days late but we here now and I'm in need of Michael content because I have missed that man

• Dont give me Michael and David drama! Stop stop stop just let people be happy I talked about this last time I'm not a fan of unnecessary relationship drama especially within queer couples

• A 💫wedding💫

• Athenas reaction is trash

• I need that headcannon of bobby helping plan Michael's wedding to become real

• Hold up I've had to pause it to think about some things - assuming none of them actually die in this episode then could their wedding be the season finale? Cos that would be a great setting for a buddie confession if they were both sat at the singles table...I'm just getting my hopes up now I'll stop

• Well that was a lil dramatic👀

• Yeah go on gaslight the wife why dont you

• Whoa is rupert gonna blow up the hospital?

• Imagine waking up during surgery to hear another one bites the dust playing

• BUCK WITH THE BABIES

• Dont tell me that kid has literally got to save his little sisters life

• Well they're gonna need therapy

• Is the call centre lady (claudette?) Pippa from The L Word Gen Q?

• Okay claudettes character is pissing me off cos she was telling may off for getting emotional and shes much worse rn

• Not one part of me believes that those kids are dead

• Sit down rupert

• That slither of emotion from eddie, such a tease

• They really killing me giving buddie holding kids together

• Dont give ravi any trauma please

• "And I promised your husband" !!!BOBBY THAT IS TOO MUCH WINGMAN BEHAVIOUR JUST GO AHEAD AND PROPOSE FOR HIM

• Wont lie I was a bit distracted in the climactic scene cos I was thinking about Jacqueline Toboni, but the end looked good

• David just saying yes without being asked🥺

• "Where's rupert?" The man didnt listen to direct instructions from first responders and got himself crushed by a ceiling cos he put himself in that situation

• NOOOOOOOOOO keep ravi happy please I refuse to accept this ravi had a happy childhood in my mind

• Oh fuck you claudette (I'm like 82% sure that is her name)

• I miss sue

• Very happy for michael and I know the actor is leaving the show but he is one of my most favourite characters and I'm gonna miss him so much

• And very very sad we dont get a wedding

• The michael flashbacks😭😭 he deserves a great send off, but also that eye contact moment with bobby they legit stared into each others souls

• That ending did feel a little abrupt again

• That was a much better episode than the last few but still not 100% classic 9-1-1 vibes that I crave

Jimmy & Janis

Jimmy: How'd I do? Your nan gonna give me another slap or shout me a drink next I see her? 😂 Janis: Well, I personally reckon you did alright but she's a harder woman to please Janis: I think you're outta the attack on sight group though so 👍 not bad for a night's work, lad Janis: How are you faring, I lost you in the crowd at several points so I'm dreading thinking who said what tbh Jimmy: 💪🏆😎🍻 Jimmy: Glad I had my bad boy shades, don't think I've been snapped so much in my life Jimmy: And at one point we basically had paps being so #goals Jimmy: but the insults were too slurred and 🇮🇪 to pack as much punch as you or your nan like Janis: mmblockoutthehaters Janis: not a fan of being the other side of the lens then, no? 😜 now you see my struggle, in all the ways 🙄 Janis: Yeah, they were on fine form, like Janis: Not Grace though, don't you think? Something's up and its not just date envy Jimmy: shut up you're sooooooooooo about being my muse Jimmy: yeah it was a good night all round, cheers Jimmy: it'll be drama with the flat whites or fuck boy. Lot of dumping done, wasn't it?

Janis & Jimmy

Fake dating begins!

Janis: Grace wants to buy you a coffee for being such a gent. Janis: If I was you I'd have a freebie black and charge it to her tab. Her and her cronies are in there enough, and it'll save you having to endure a frappe/her and said giggling gal pals. Jimmy: Me and her or a group hang with the BBs for the 'gram? Jimmy: 👍I did that last week and the one before Janis: Depends. She obvs wants alone time with you but she's never passed up a #goals photo-op in her life, so. Janis: Can't be freeing the nip on Insta but maybe she's got a private snapchat she wants to whore out, you'll be well in then 👍 Janis: Christ. Good to know not ALL her money goes on Brazilian blow-outs, she's also topping up the salary of every hot barista in town, what a philanthropist she is, amongst other less favourable titles. Jimmy: If you can be arsed to 3rd wheel this I'll shout you something from the secret menu Jimmy: Which exists swear down and isn't just a invite to my snapchat Jimmy: Why am I worried Brazilian blow outs is a way bigger euphemism any day Janis: Hmm. As much as I try to avoid spending ANY time with Grace, for obvious reasons as you well know, it could be pretty amusing to see her make such a twat out of herself. And it would piss her off if I gatecrashed...Fuck it, I'm in. Janis: Don't get any ideas about making some taboo twin content though, lad, that only happens in the minds of pervy porn execs, and in weird old lady novels from the 80s. Janis: Lol. Yeah, it ain't a Cavante special. Its to make her look MORE white, funnily enough. As if the coffee habits and UGGs weren't making her a literal meme for the cause already. Jimmy: I'd rather down a strawberry açaí refresher with coconut milk every time Grace makes a gaff, which funnily enough is what necking with your sister's tall mate tastes like, than get sandwiched between the two of you Jimmy: I'd shout her a flat white if she'd get the joke though. One for each of them Jimmy: 😩 Janis: OMG, girl code, Grace sooooo saw you first, Tammy is gonna be out on her flat white arse when Gracie finds out, like 💀 Janis: The feeling's mutual, dickhead. Wouldn't put it past my sister though, she's more obsessed with me than she'd EVER be with you. 🤢 At least she'll be moving on when you finally give in and give it to her, I've got a life fucking sentence, mate. ⚰ Jimmy: OMG Minnie (??? Isn't that her name maybe) launched herself at me first and I'd be out on my penniless arse if I'd let her crack on over the counter ⛔ Jimmy: I like my encounters with a little less ego it's no crime. Or slight on you, mate. Jimmy: I'll tell Gracie that if she ever lets me get a word in. Janis: Fuck knows. All look the same to me. Ironic if it is, though, fucking jolly green giantess. Janis: And soz but sexual assault ain't no crime either when you're them though, they're just being #girlbosses swear down garda 💋 Janis: Good luck with that one, kid. Even if she gives you the chance, she won't be listening. Fucks with the fairytale where you shut the fuck up and carry her bags 'cept to call her pretty once in a while for said ego's boost. 🙊🙉 Janis: oh, and look good in the 'gram, standard. Jimmy: Could be what the lads call her... whoops Jimmy: Damn. I'll have to spoil her fun by letting it be known I've got myself a girl already. 🎻 Shame it'll take me years to find one who can stand the interrogation 💔 Jimmy: Gotta get Cass to keep her ear low. Effort. Janis: The 'lad's' secret is safe with me, the 'girls' are hardly likely to listen and I'm even less likely to bother to tell 'em. She'd just think #pussygamestrong 'neway so I ain't giving the bint that unwarrant stroke when you've all already been there, done that. Sloppy. Janis: Woe is, lad. Like everyone ain't on your dick rn 'cos you got that shiny, new appeal. Just pick one that ain't TOTALLY unbearable- ah, I see your problem. Janis: Sadly, I can't help, I ain't the massive lezza you've no doubt heard from the lads and girls alike that I am. Janis: Slim pickings either way you swinging, you see. Jimmy: You can help me then. Go on. Think how mad it'd make Gracie if nuffin' else Jimmy: Counter distance between us at all times if you want Janis: Aside from pissing off my sister, which I'm more than capable of by me larry, what's in it for me? You get her off your dick and back into Costa to cry it out, like Jimmy: Freebies of any of Common Grounds finest where you can also hang without her and her hangers on Jimmy: Semi trained mutt if I can wrench it from my sisters grasping hands? Jimmy: Plus an end to the rumors if you're arsed about that. You said yourself I've got the newbie appeal Janis: Alright, alright, you had me at dog! Janis: I won't deprive your sister but I could do with an AM running partner who can keep up. I'll wear it out and have it back to you at the end of your morning shift, before she's even had her weetabix or found her school tie. Deal? Janis: I'm down for writing our own rumours, why the fuck not, eh Jimmy: Done. Her name's Twix and she's as annoying as the name makes her sound. Jimmy: Get ready for rumors about how many bodies she's buried for you after all the holes dug Janis: Cute. And I'm sure I've dealt with worse bitches, I'm up for the challenge. 💪 Janis: Its always the dog walkers init, suspicious cunts. Jimmy: Yeah, and if you wanna bury a few of 'em yourself I'll keep my lips sealed Jimmy: Tomorrow too soon? Janis: Good man, you will if you know what's good for you. Janis: Though, not too sealed, gotta set this dump's/my sister's world alight, like, and I don't think that's happening if we just hold hands. 😲 Janis: Nah, I'm ready. Only thing I got scheduled is double chem and that can always do with livening up. Janis: How you wanna do this, lover boy? Jimmy: Point taken. I better work on my angles too. For the 'gram. Jimmy: With minimal cliches if that can even be a thing round 'ere Jimmy: Probably wouldn't believe it without 100s would they Janis: You best, I don't know how to work facetime, you've got the wrong twin there. Janis: Well, I could oh-so casually ask Grace if her and the bitch squad are going for coffee on the way home from hell (as if they don't every fucking day) and she will be buzzin' thinking I wanna come 'cos she's always asking/attempting to drag me like she's on a mission from the coffee bean gods Janis: Then we can be there, together, oh-so casually again Janis: Aside from sucking face on the playground (which is a little first school, even for these hoes) its the best way to get max attention and thus the rumour mill will do the rest Jimmy: Make sure Tall Tammy's at the back. Can't have Grace missing it Jimmy: See if you can get one of them to spill coffee on you too. Everyone loves a heroic gesture and a clothes share 😏 Janis: 😂 Brilliant. Janis: Assuming Grace doesn't straight up throw it at me, I'll be sure to make that happen. Janis: I'll probably come chat to you at lunch tomorrow too. Can't have this springing out of nowhere, like, how implausible! 😏 You hang with Sean Bryne and that atm, yeah? Jimmy: Yeah we'll be in the smoking spot if not our usual corner Jimmy: I'll slide into the seat beside you the period after make it look like we got it really bad 💘 Janis: 👍 twos up on the ☠ 🚬 then, lad. what could be more romantic? Janis: good thinking, grace is in that class too and she's hopeless with maths so she won't be paying the slightest bit of attention to anything but the absolute scandal Jimmy: What should I call you so you don't wanna punch me in the dick as soon as I go in for a pet name? Janis: Eurgh, good shout, even if it is just to save your own bollocks, can't blame a boy. I don't fucking know, what's not vomit-inducing but also #couplegoals enough to make it worth the hassle? Janis: Blah, just remember my name, yeah, that'll have 'em creaming. Such courtesies are not often extended their way, like. Jimmy: Deal. And I'll # everything #JJ so you can block it from your feed easy Janis: Solid. Janis: Imma take a picture with your dog tomorrow, it best be fucking cute. Jimmy: [Takes a selfie with Twix and sends it] Do you? Jimmy: Not my #goals but should spark jealousy with the intended Janis: Cute. Janis: The dog ain't bad either. 😉 Janis: I'm getting in practice Jimmy: I'll do mine in the comments when it's posted Jimmy: How keen is cringe in the eyes of Gracie and her friends? Janis: You're asking a mouthful there. If you're too nice, they'll say you're boring. But they've gotta at least pretend they're feminists in this day and age so if you are too full of the bants and low-key treating me like shit, they're gonna have to pretend they ain't here for that even though that's every boyf they've ever had, na'mean? Janis: Just say something confusingly inappropriate for what is not gonna be a hot pic, isn't that how you lads do? Janis: I'll set you up with a lame caption Jimmy: Thanks. There's back room access in it for you Jimmy: Again not a private snapchat invite Janis: Steady on there, not until the 3rd date, at least! 😂 Jimmy: 😂 Jimmy: Seriously though. You're not as much of a bitch as everyone says. Nice one. Janis: Well, don't be spreading that backhander about, will ya? Janis: You've got a rep to make, that's a bit of mine I'd like to protect Jimmy: 🤐
