did you get any of those messages

from strangers

the "you two should talk about" ones

[calicoat]

Entirely too many of them. Though a few have led to something fun.

Meet anyone interesting, darling?

[brimmed]

maybe

i don't know

i thought it went alright at the time

but now i don't know

how do i show you the conversation

can i send it to you

[calicoat]

What do you mean you don't know?

[ Here lie instructions for how to screenshot and send pictures on whatever the Duplicity phone is. ]

[brimmed]

[ Alright. She's just gonna send him the whole conversation and he can read it at his leisure. ]

did i do it right

[ And then, in case he thinks she's talking about screenshotting: ]

talking to her

i don't know what the fuck i'm doing

[calicoat]

Oh, I know Miss Snow.

Not intimately, but she's expressed interest.

You're coming across a bit awkward, darling, but she seems interested, still. Are you?

[ Another minute and he'll pull up the last bit of city-sponsored oversharing, so she can get a look. ]

[brimmed]

yeah

i am

i don't know how to be less awkward

[calicoat]

Just be honest about what you want. Confident in your ability. It's not as if you've never tied anyone to the bed before, is it?

[ It's a little weird, playing wingman for Anne. They told each other they didn't need to be involved with each other's flings, unless they were in a position to hurt them, but as Jack's list keeps growing, and he's even let a few of them get close, and Anne's doesn't, he feels like he owes it to her. To make sure she's taken care of, while his attention is divided, dealing with this thing in him. This thing they share, but that he was too thick to figure out without this place forcing it out of him. ]

Would it be helpful if I were there?

[brimmed]

yeah

if you want

[calicoat]

It'll be fun. This one will actually want me there.
