Sj: mhm

Sj: (smiles softly)

Sj: does this mean I can stick a finger in your eye socket and you wouldn’t feel it?

Sj: eh?- I’m perfectly fine with it! I just want my wings room to breathe

Sj: (immediately wraps himself with the blanket)

Sj: Rose! How areee..whhherrRE IS YOUR EYE—

Sj: I’m actually pretty warm right now, but thank you

Sj: SpongeBob-

Sj: I’m pretty sure I saw her walking the hall once, ..and I think I passed out out of shock.

Sj: I appreciate it.

Sj: eh?

Sj: yeah..I- I know about that. The shadow told me…they're here with us- er- me..you can't see them, but they're shouting a lot at me right now- Lui isn't wrong- I mean- when was the last time I actually spent time with the kids? Or- or with you.

Sj: yeah and he’s already such a good kid.. (fake sniffle) I’m so proud,

Sj: (goes back to sulking)

Sj: He hasn’t said shit to me. And I’m surprised you haven’t noticed, I haven’t been home in a while, hon. Yeah you would see me occasionally, but I’ve been outside. And I mean- do you not see me? I look- I look *horrendous!* and- and I can’t even stop myself from setting myself and other things on fire! Go- satan- is this how Odis feels?

Sj: (rolls his eyes) you say it like nine times out of ten you won’t be giving kisses in the next 20 years

Sj: we uh..we don’t know yet, unfortunately. When it happened I was just so ready to.. *give up.* I mean- imagine turning to the one thing you hated most, and you can’t even remember what it was! I was- I was being immature and I was thinking for myself at the time— but..I know to do better this time. And- and I’ll actually do something. Which uh- leads me to another thing, I heard what was going on. They told me that, sorry.

Sj: (huffs) I have a couple ways to go!

Void: (stares at Jordan expectantly)

Sj: ‘mkay..the uh- the problem we ran into was with another dumb shadow like Void. He knew them and— and things hit the fan. It was supposed to be just a quick in and out, we killed the person, and we should’ve left. They just- they just brought up things I wanted to *forget* and I couldn’t block my emotions fast enough— and I.. acted irrational. It’s why I kinda went MIA, I guess. Uhm..void, was supposed to take over as me, but..they- they couldn’t really do anything- at the time I mean.

Sj: (nods) just glad I’m not actually old, . . . Yet—

Jason: (snickers)
