Okay?

(it's not worth the upset. even his passive-aggressive acknowledgement is too far, wondering if he should feel bad about it. can he even fit anymore inside of him?

when does guilt reach capacity?)

I'm 18. idk ig I'm into music and movies and stuff. Sports, etc.

hbu?

[fessus]

[ It's not the first time things have gotten tense with Jonas. It's unlikely to be the last. Conflict certainly hasn't ever been something he's shied away from but now, too? When they're just trying to get to know each other?

All he wants to do is ignore it, selfishly. ]

Pretty broad tbh, are we talking horror movies? Comedies?

I'm 20 so now I get to be the old one ig. Pretty into gaming but a guy I know got me into fishing too. Bet he regrets it since now I kick his ass

[coherer]

20 wow, ancient💩

I'm not big on horror really, idk if you've noticed by now but I'm kind of a wuss. I like comedies as much as the next guy but I'm into war movies the most ig? Like military stuff in general. I think it's neat.

Fishing seems really relaxing. I've never actually gone but I kind of want to try it now.

(he's dead; what else is there to do but quickly strike things off of his bucket list?)

And games are cool too. I'm not a huge into it, but what kind of stuff do you play usually??

[fessus]

Yeah yeah save the shit emoji for smth actually embarrassing lol

Also wuss + war movies/combat = ??? Give yourself a break, doesn't sound like you're a hopeless case tbh. Except for the fact that you don't fish or game but

Used to be an arcade addict but if I don't feel like getting out I've got more options now. RPGs, gachas, MOBAs, card-based stuff, real time strat games, I've got a couple records back home actually. nbd.

[coherer]

Um horror movies are scary, war movies are not. Like ig they are in a different way, but they're not gonna cheaply jump-scare me for 2 hrs. And I said I game, just not a lot.

Sports games are cool like I play this one called FIFA and it's a soccer one (idk if your world has soccer but whatever) and this action game called Grand Theft Auto. You like steal cars and outrun cops and you're a part of a gang and stuff lol

idk what a gacha is but I've heard of everything else. You've seriously got high scores?? bc literally everyone with their name in the top spot that I've heard of is like an esports player big time. Do you go in competitions?

[fessus]

Okay okay fair

[ You're a terrified cute gamer boy, I'll let you get away with it. ]

We don't have soccer but lmaooo I get it now, I know exactly what kind of gamer you are. What about music? You didn't really go into detail on any of yours tbh

Anyway I never get to go to any of the competitions or anything. [ ... ] Work commitments lol

[coherer]

Wait wait wait, you go back and you explain that "passed-judgement lmao" to me and tell me exactly what kind of gamer I am.

I'm not saying anything about anything till you do.

[fessus]

Oh yeah? I didn't think I'd have to spell it out.

You filthy casual.

[coherer]

Ohhhhh is that all?? lmao for a sec I thought you were actually going to insult me.

You're just trying to tell me I have a life. Thanks, man.

[fessus]

Way to clap back with an insult from 2 gens back, don't be that guy.

Accept that you're basic with grace.

[coherer]

I shall NOT. What are you even talking about?? "I have a life" aged as well as "log off and go outside" did: like a fine wine.

Don't tell me you don't even like sports. What a waste of potential.

[fessus]

[ presses his lips together in an attempt not to smile ]

Why, bc I'm overflowing with team spirit?

[coherer]

Positively brimming with it. Yeah our echo chamber of intensely positive vibes is deafening.

I can't believe you're actually fishing like this. yk what I'm talking about.

(can't quite manage "your physical form is perfect for it," so jonas is settling on:)

The moves. Your obvious moves??

[fessus]

Idk Jonas idk what moves you could mean

[ Yeah think more about my physical form. ]

Am I ever going to hear about your music tastes or?? I'm not asking three times, that'd be messed up.

[coherer]

You just did lol

idk though I like all kinds. Rap is big for me, popular stuff we call "top 40s" and it's mostly all like pop songs or pop/rock. I like anything with good instrumentals too like ig OSTs. A lot of indie stuff.

What about you?

[fessus]

Lol top 40? Why 40, that's so random, we do top 100, your world has some catching up to do

Pop/rock's cool, and OSTs. I'm into that too, and stuff with energy to it idk speed metal stuff, punk etc. Skip any part where you judge me

[coherer]

Good idea, we should really get cracking on inventing the next 60. jfc idk it's just a random number that became a weird genre name hahaha

Anyway, why would I judge your music taste? Lol music is like famously subjective. Speed metal though.........😬

(the joke is an easy one. talking with noctis, too, is easy, which relaxes him more than he expected. maybe he just needed someone normal to talk to about normal things.)

I wish I could hear some of it. It's gonna be hard to start fresh here if they even have recorded stuff at all.

[fessus]

Lmao I'm holding you personally responsible for fixing it, don't you want over twice as many songs?

Anyway get it out of your system, I was super nice about yours but w/e...... more for me.

You think you've got any music behind your door or smth? Maybe I can scrounge smth up who knows

[coherer]

(there is music behind his door, but, selfishly, jonas doesn't want to share that with anyone. trust exists here, noctis is a decent guy, and still he's wary of introducing him to any significant part of his life.

will that ever change? all the times he's tried to open up, he chose wrong.)

I'm kiddinggggg, chill.

There's nothing like that but I could look. My phone's in there and it shows pictures and stuff ig, I just didn't check if it played any of my downloaded songs.

Speaking of which ummmm do you know how many tethers you're supposed to have?

[fessus]

[ Tethers? Just the thought has him tensing up unpleasantly, stomach dropping in a wave of unwelcome reminders. ]

Idk you'd be asking the wrong person. Tbh? I didn't even stay behind my door for more than a few minutes.

I'm not looking to learn about a system I'm not planning to participate in lol

But maybe that's making all this heavier than we wanted.

[coherer]

Who's the right person?

Sure, it's heavy, everything in this place is. I just haven't had anyone to compare w/ but it's fine. As for the soulmate thing I'm not against it per se I just don't feel like it's necessary? We're already here together.

[fessus]

[ Deep breath, Noctis. ]

I just mean I'm not an authority or w/e. If you're asking, I've got 4.

So compare away

[ The soulmate discussion is one casually but carefully left unresponded to. ]

[coherer]

I've only got 3........

(what does he do with this information? jonas purses his lips.

make...

make a...

make a joke out of it? he jabs "send.")

I wonder if it means I've almost totally transcended physical objects... like I'm more enlightened than you.👼

2/2

[fessus]

Maybe you're just dumber and shallower??
