Sooooooo. Fair ladies, good sirs, ghoulies, ghosties, dead and undead alike. Fellow whatever we think we are? [ eddie get to the point here? ] How many of you play instruments and would want to jam?

I'm in a band back home and missing shred sessions. I just found my guitar back -- [ a pause and then he might sound like he's devastated and talking about a lost love. ] Not my sweetheart but my acoustic.

[ and if you're thinking he's not gonna give you whiplash and then sound eager, excited as fuck at the drop of a hat then you're wrong. ] Anyway, I'm really jonesing to play. Anyone in?

If you're into metal or rock even better but all musicians welcome. The place I'm staying at isn't big but there's abandoned buildings near by and the acoustics are killer. [ and because there's some manners under there? ] And if you're in, I'm Eddie.

[ whoops… ]

Sorry about that, man. But hey, you’re not that much older than me, at least? Sorta?

[guitarpicks]

I'd be like forty-five or something if I was around in twenty-four years. [ and, yeah, he sounds kinda detached from that idea.

even if it wasn't for the upside down, honestly, eddie's not sure he would have made that. ]

[venatoris]

That isn't that bad, man. Really.

[ like, dean doesn't make it past 42 but hey, who's counting ]

[guitarpicks]

Fucking old is what that is. [ said like someone who doesn't believe it and is trying to sound like a dick here. yep. don't mind him. ]

[venatoris]

God, it does feel kinda old.

[ He's well on his way and he isn't sure how he feels about that. ]
