[Wally :(]

Leonhart?
we were yes

[runningstart]

i was just thinking about her today

[runningstart]

yknow whenever i vanished and came back

or even when she vanished and came back
shed get me a dozen of these cupcakes like loaded down with frosting

[infomodder]

sounds right
she made me a birthday cake
gave me a chocolate heart for valentine's day




did you vanish and come back recently?
i can get you a dozen cupcakes loaded down with frosting if you'd like

[runningstart]

oh yeah you showed me that thing
the heart thing that was awesome

[runningstart]

no i didnt i just

[runningstart]

wanted to talk about her

i dont know anybody else she was close to whos still here

[infomodder]

yeah most of her people are gone
the people from her world i mean

i miss her too sometimes
there's a lot of little things that remind me of her
but i'm glad i got to know her while she was here
how'd you and annie first meet anyway
is there a story there?

[runningstart]

idr most of it but it involved slurpees

she hadnt tried them yet or something and i told her to try one
and then she didnt for like
a long time

so i brought some over and made her try one and she liked it because i know everything
and while i was there i found out she didnt know how to use the camera on her phone so i showed her how

and then we kept talking and she knocked me flat on my back cause i asked her if she had a crush on me

[infomodder]

[This is without a doubt the best thing he's heard in like two weeks.]

so that's when you knew she had the BIGGEST crush on you
and pulled her hair in return
?

[runningstart]

no i asked her to teach me that move but she got mad because i wasnt being serious enough so we just went back to texting and eating food buddies

and then she did that network post thing with the
thing

and i talked to her and then i didnt talk to her but then i talked to her because she said she wanted to change and

i dunno i think i made her cry but she got pissed and i dunno girls sometimes man

but she always tried to make it look like she didnt care
but she cared a lot

[infomodder]

it's a defense mechanism
if people believe you don't care it can easier to just
survive
not a bad idea in this place
where we can go and come at any time



when i first talked to annie i didn't think i'd end up caring about her
i was showing my ass
complicated but
gave her some tickets to go on a boat ride
one of the workers got caught stealing from the customers lifting their wallets and watches and shit like that
she had to give the police statements about it when they realized what was going on
not the best first impression
but everything after was good
even if it was awkward or uncomfortable at times
still have everything she gave me that wasn't meant to be eaten

[runningstart]

i miss her

if we could ever get a porter that listened to us
would you try to get her back here

[infomodder]

[After he got Freddie, tbh.]

yes
not just because i miss her
her world never seemed like a place anyone would want to return to
being here would be better than that
at least she had ice

[runningstart]

and cheese

and xray machines
and other assorted benefits that come with modern medicine

[infomodder]

soap and nyquil
as well as being in the midst of a more manageable war


do you wear jewelry at all?
Annie gave me a bunch of shark teeth a while back
never knew what to do with them
i could put one on a thick string and give it to you

[runningstart]

i dont really wear anything it gets in the way

[runningstart]

but maybe i can wear it under my clothes or something

whip it out and b like I WRESTLED THIS SHARK 2 DEATH
no just kidding
annie did that with her tiny tiny body

[infomodder]

[Wally you are one adorable little fucker.]

or hang it up in your room

[Better than a poster, isn't it?]

she's one of the people who used to stop by the shop
one of the reasons i have all the snacks in the back
i wanted her to feel like she had somewhere safe to go when she needed it
or when she just didn't want to go home and had nowhere else to be
we never watched movies back there though
that's an all you thing, kiddo

[Which is Will's way of saying that even though Wally's come around to "profit" off of what was initially set up with others in mind, he's still made his own little dent. It's also his way of saying as much as he goes to that shop sometimes and misses Annie, if Wally ever poofed, he's made enough of an impact that Will would miss him, too. Even if he found someone else to use it for movie-watching purposes, it wouldn't be the same. Similar situation, sure, but people are irreplaceable. Annie and Wally both.]

it's your turn to pick the movies this time
btw
i'll give you your teeth punched out by her tiny tiny body then

[runningstart]

yeah
maybe ill do that

like a souvenir [and how long has it been since he's remembered to do that?]

why dont we watch jaws
make it thematic

[infomodder]

you got it
i'll pick up the first 3 and a bunch of candy
should probably look into find a popcorn machine at this rate
would be easier than making bags midmovie

[runningstart]

if u can find one broken for cheap i can def fix it im good with mechanical stuff

[infomodder]

i'll keep that in mind
thank you Wally

[runningstart]

yeah no prob
thanks to you too
