... No.

[ okay! ]

[agleam]

[he thinks about pushing a little but decides against it after a moment, shaking his head]

Sure, okay. [...] How are you feeling?

[bxkautx]

I'm fine. We'll see them again in a matter of weeks, so. No big deal.

[ she is really bad at caring about death, unfortunately. ]

I did like talking to both of them, though. This'll make each week feel a little duller.

[agleam]

[he asked how she was feeling so that's valid, even if he tenses up a little at the answer.]

...Yeah. They were both good people.

[bxkautx]

If you believe in that concept, sure. Probably.

[agleam]

What does that mean?

[bxkautx]

Good people or bad people. It's all pretty subjective.

[agleam]

[genuinely thinks about this for a minute]

...That's fair enough, yeah. Or, well - there are some people I think are just good or bad, black or white. But a lot of people do fall somewhere in the middle.

[bxkautx]

I'm back and forth on it. But I did like them both a lot, regardless.

[agleam]

Past tense?

[bxkautx]

Do like them.

[ just corrects herself. pauses. ]

Tenses are... hard sometimes.

[agleam]

Why's that?

[bxkautx]

Things blur a little sometimes.

[agleam]

I don't think I get it.

[bxkautx]

It's not really important.

Anyway, you doing okay? [ realizes she didn't ask him back, like an asshole. ]

[agleam]

...Not really, but - that's just kind of how it's going to go, I think.

[bxkautx]

Pretty much...

[agleam]

Yeah. Just have to make it through the end, and then - whatever the next thing is.

[bxkautx]

Forever.

[agleam]

Yeah.

[unfortunately he subscribes to this form of existential dread now]

But there's good stuff along the way, too. Just - hard to see in moments like this, I guess.

[bxkautx]

There's always good moments. Even in a mess of bad ones.

I'm not exactly gonna fault people for not finding them right this instant, though.

[agleam]

Yeah, me either. I think... sometimes it's better to just kind of sit with it, anyways.

[bxkautx]

May as well. Not like it's digging into time you could be doing anything more productive with.

[ this sounds like a dig but she means it. what can anyone do on a friday!!! nothing!!! ]

[agleam]

[he does not take this as a dig at all because. yeah!! yeah.]

You, too.

[bxkautx]

I don't need to sit with it. Just have no choice is all.
