un: jonas. cw: blood chatter.

[coherer]

ik this is going to sound like an episode of 60 Minutes that never got aired, but I have smelled worryingly like blood for the past week or so.

Please pre-emptively cool it on the wild guesses, though. God forbid any of this winds up vaguely sexual like Keith's thing (F, buddy). No, I haven't even been injured lately. No, it's not my time of the month. No, I'm not actually a murderer. I woke up one day, sniffed foul air, and have been increasingly ill since.

Does anyone have any idea what I can even do about this? bc I feel like I've tried literally everything but bathing in bleach.

Oh, actually, for ppl who don't want to interact with my TMI, what are your favourite movies? I work at the theatre in Mirth now and I'll get a 2% raise if I bring in more traffic, so I kinda have a vested interest in knowing what kinds of things you'd wanna see screened. Set can't pay for everything yk lol.

Thanks.

[He'd grin, ear to ear. This guy reminded him of Baji. Energetic, honest, and kind in that rough, boyish way that made it feel more real than honeyed, soft words. He liked him. Fuck, did he make a friend-??]

Man I cant tell you how much I appreciate that. Thanks, again, for just-- being awesome, haha. And yeah, absolutely, I got you. Whatever you need, whenever. I'll look out for you. Were buds now, right?

Ive never had a real job either so Im stoked. My parents sucked but at least they had deep pockets. But free popcorn and free movies all day and we get paid for it?? Thaaaaaat I can absolutely spend my days doing.

Also, great list - I was gonna say maybe we should add in sci-fi or horror, but given the creepy dump we all live in lol maaaybe thats not a great idea.

so! now that were gonna be coworkers, we should go out somewhere, get drunk, and tell embarrassing stories about ourselves. is there a place you wanna go?

you and me just trying to get through this: https://youtu.be/sTt-jdDEWAw?t=3

[coherer]

Yeah, buds. Cool.

(jonas purses his lips to prevent himself from smiling. the number of friends he's making here surpasses his previous record at home by a long shot, and those strangers barely counted. they were disappointing, occasionally cruel, and, perhaps worst of all, disloyal.

they'll forget him and he'll forget them. everyone will move on as though jonas ward never existed.

here, however, he, too, has a second chance.)

tbh this wasn't gonna work if you didn't ask me to go get hammered, so I agree wholeheartedly that we should do that. There's this place called the Cairn I took my friend Zagreus to and we thought it was p great, so we could meet up there sometime?? Just when I don't stink to high heaven LMFAO

In the meantime, though, sci-fi is definitely going on the list. You're right about horror, but I thiiiiink we could get away with weird planets/aliens/robots and stuff.

You got a favourite movie?

THATS US! Also I am back from the death of TREMENDOUS workload HI and sorry!!!!

[killtohero]

Haha well i wont judge if you wanna come out stinky or not, but if you wanna shower than come meet me? im free anytime - literally i have nothing going on right now til I start this job with you

and getting hammered rn sounds fucking amazing and im here for it

[He'd pause to consider his favorite movie.. it'd been a while since he'd had the chance to just chill with popcorn and watch something with friends..]

I like pretty gory movies ngl haha. A couple of my favorites -- I like the movie Cure, and I like Suicide Circle. Koji Shirashi's Noroi is chefs kiss imo. I watched the American movie Saw when I got out of jail, and that was my favorite recent movie. Its surprising how many people have depraved tastes like me lol.

Hbu? Fav movie? Fav memory around a movie?

Also tbh we should just have this convo while getting drunk - you wanna meet up later today?

no worries at all, also i was gone too so I FEEL YOU FRIEND

[coherer]

I have gotta decline this time, bc the stink may be fine but I feel like total garbage bc of it. Definitely once I shake this curse or illness or whatever, I'll be game.

(which sucks, because making a friend and not being able to go out to hang with them to "seal the deal" is a pain in the ass. still, jonas is familiar with his limits, and he knows he'd be terrible company.

conscious of how well he hides his malaise, he decides to share instead of bottling it.)

Joking around about stuff is easier, but I'm grouchy/whiny when I get sick, so tbh I'm saving everyone the hassle lol

I haven't seen most of those, though. Saw was awesome though even if the acting was hilariously bad. I think that made it better though bc half the fun was seeing the elaborate torture gizmos and the other half was making fun of Cary Elwes crawl around white as a sheet hahahaha

I'm into war movies, but my favourite's movie ever is The Hurt Locker. It's about bomb disposal in the middle east. The tension is bonkers.

[killtohero]

Well then... I can come over? Make you some idk soup or something. We can watch one of your war movies if you got one on you?

[ooc: Just wanted to say I was /really/ enjoying this thread and am so sorry the game closed. This is only my second one and the first closed just a month after I joined too! I feel cursed! Anyway, thank you again and good luck on all your future endeavors! And happy 2023!!!]
