That's too bad. I was kind of looking forward to it.

[ He reads the old network posts. Sorry if that creeps you out, Dave. ]

[knightime]

books
libra
what???

[Wait, what?]

[fracturedsoul]

Yeah, I get that. It just seems like learning in person would be more effective.
Also,
**library

[knightime]

i know its library jackass
im still trying to figure out what days work
considering every week seems to throw some clusterfuck for its own shits and giggles

[fracturedsoul]

Fair enough.
Let me know if there's anything you need help with.

[ That probably sounds douchey or sarcastic. It's not. ]

[knightime]

yeah
kay
i mean there isnt anything to help with
i got this shit
no worries

[Does being a shitty liar translate over text? Dave is the best liar, of course not.]

[fracturedsoul]

Okay, I get it.
And don't take my idle statement of dismay as pushing you or anything.
It would probably do you good to take a break, come to think of it.

[knightime]

good thing i didnt take it that way
so looks like were golden there
im fine
ill just sleep all of saturday or something
shit wait
god damn it why do i work on the only day we have no class???
this place is stupid

[fracturedsoul]

Dude, call in sick. I will just give you five raks if you stay in bed and sleep.
Shit, I'll give you six.

[greenspaces]

where is john?

[knightime]

i dont care about making raks
holy shit
i make a crapton each week anyways
being a player makes that shit easy as fuck
its just like
sup
youre a player
let us throw money at you
maybe i just like working there
if only to sit at a counter and stare at instruments for a few hours
why do you care if i stay in bed for a day???

[Private]

[knightime]

went back to be a hero

[fracturedsoul]

Because shit keeps going badly for you and I figure you might want a break?
Plus you kind of confirmed that by calling off your makeshift class and saying you wanted to sleep all day.
You're my roommate and more than likely some kind of alternate universe relative of some sort.
Besides, I just don't like seeing people fuck themselves up, okay?

[Private]

[greenspaces]

no
no we need him here
dave, he cant leave

[knightime]

hnrrghhhghh
thats because
...
ugh nevermind
going to work for a few hours isnt going to kill me

[He can handle this! He's spent days in SBURB. Okay...so days isn't weeks, but that's besides the point.

Also, Dirk kind of hinting at caring is just.
Weird. If only because he doesn't know how to handle the other.]

[knightime]

i got his upgrade and memory with me
you want the memory???
i checked the nurses office or whatever and he wasnt there
and it was on his bed back in his dorm
he went back to the session jade

[He's not going to cry or anything. He has to be there for Jade.]

[fracturedsoul]

Do what you want, but I am all sorts of advising against this.

[knightime]

ill tell you how much of a terrible idea it was
when it bites me in the ass
annotated and everything
lalonde would weep proudly at my effort even

[veepofchess]

You were more impressive than I expected, after what had happened to you prior to the monster's release.

You deserve some rest.

[Private]

[greenspaces]

no
no thats not possible!!!!
he has to be here!

[ FLEEING INTO THE BROOM CLOSET OH MY GOD the slam is so loud he can probably hear it wherever he is ]

[knightime]

...
thanks
i mean it wasnt that hard to keep up with it
but i guess everyone is starting to learn harder words
which takes a shitton of patience suddenly
really
i just need to find a date
where giant wyrms
or whatever dont suddenly decide to be like
sup
wrecking your shit

[fracturedsoul]

I'm gonna expect no less than three pages of single-spaced 12-point Helvetica.
Seriously, though, I can tell you're kind of weirded out by me, so if it helps I will gladly vacate the dorm if you want to stay home.
One whole Dirk-free Saturday.

[In person]

[knightime]

[Dave will find you and just sit in front of the door.]

the john that can hear
hell wake up soon i think

[Except he honestly wants can't hear and barely talks John back. He knocks at the door lightly.]

[knightime]

just for that
im typing in comic sans
what???
im not weirded out by you

[He kind of is. But that's not even the problem. And he kind of likes you in the dorm. He'll never admit it.]

you brought me back from the roof that night

[He woke up to a smuppet in his arms. Don't you dare tell him that wasn't you.]

[In person]

[greenspaces]

[ There's a long pause, and she knocks back, opening the door just enough to let Dave in. ]

But he's not our John.
