Chase, I think you're the most normal friend I've got here. And before you think it's an insult, know that before coming to the City I spent years thinking I was special when I was actually as mediocre as I could possibly be - no powers, no skills, just smarts and an attitude that never got me too far - but I've been friends with witches and magicians and demons and demon hunters and conmen and then you.

And I really like it. I just hope I'm not too weird for you now.

[intheblanks]

bad time.

[brobeforehos]

Feeling over-explicative too?

text;

[intheblanks]

stop texting and i can stop replying.

text;

[brobeforehos]

What if I don't want to.

[intheblanks]

alcohol would have been preferable but you seemed young and sweet enough that i figured turning hot chocolate into one reasonably forgettable night and leaving without giving you my number wouldn't exactly be brain surge

[brobeforehos]

Huh.

text; no 2/3 sorry

[brobeforehos]

It's funny how you'd think it'd be forgettable.

text;

[brobeforehos]

But now I'm even more glad it didn't lead there.

text;

[intheblanks]

forgettable nights were all i was looking for.

text;

[brobeforehos]

That can't have been the most exciting life.

text;

[intheblanks]

had too much of that.

text;

[brobeforehos]

Before the City or during your stay here?

text;

[intheblanks]

the part i wanted to forget? before.

text;

[intheblanks]

i'm sure you wouldn't be forgettable. i liked you more once i realised how damn difficult you are.

[brobeforehos]

I'm sorry.

[brobeforehos]

I'm sure that if I'd ever been the type of person to use sex to get over bitterness or hardships, I'd have given you the time of night on the spot.

[intheblanks]

wasn't trying to get over anything, just forget it. and the more forgettable women i slept with the less it felt like cheating on my wife.

text;

[brobeforehos]

Yeah, I got that. Maybe I was talking about me.

text;

[intheblanks]

i'm sorry, about your mum.

text;

[brobeforehos]

Yeah.

It was my fault, I keep thinking.

every kid who loses a parent blames themselves. doesn't matter if it was cancer or suicide or - whatever. You feel like, if you'd loved them enough...
