happy singles awareness day
did you know that saint valentine was full of shit
i mean maybe he wasn't but theres no way to know since theres like no actual history on this guy
there are records of three different saint valentines
though i guess the one thing thats consistent is that pretty much all of them died horribly

anyway there's your exciting earth history fact of the day
have fun

[Alex, for his part, is currently planning on getting at least a little buzzed tonight. Despite the apparent bitterness of that mass-network text, he's not technically single. His SO just happens to not be here. Hence, drinking. Hence, bitterness.

Hence, that fun Valentine's Day Historical Fact.

Anyone looking for him will find him at the bar.]

[tbh Alex probably needs more concerned friends.]

that's where your from, right?
sounds nicer than the south let me tell you

Yeah. I grew up in this kind of quiet seaside town. Arcadia Bay. I spent a couple of years in Seattle, then moved back for a photography course.

It is nice. [And holy crap she did not realize how much she misses the place, Arcadia Bay itself, until she started texting this out.]

seattle huh
those big cities seem awesome
everything just really in easy reach
you don't live a 10 mile drive from everything else

so arcadia bay
small town?

[She sets it to private. It just feels more appropriate, though she can't tell why.]

Yeah it was huge. Full of artists. It felt so alive.

Small-ish. Quieter, but you know. More personal. You're not taking pictures of things fifty thousand other people already have.

true on both counts
that sounds pretty awesome, not gonna lie
better than the redneck state that's for damn sure

I bet that bugged you a lot. Might not be the best place for "existential melancholia." ^_^ But I don't really know.

It is awesome. I was too excited to leave, when I moved away.

well on the plus side there were a TON of abandoned buildings and stuff, like all over
added great stuff to the tone

this place is kind of a downgrade from that
sorry

Except for the pick-up trucks with shotguns, right?

You don't have to apologize.

Man I just wish I was home. For once.

i just mean like
sympathy and stuff
idk i'm bad at this

[He really is. Whoops.]

well yeah but that's what i get for living in fucking alabama

Nah. I get it. I should probably get my brain under control and stop moping. [But she can't stop thinking of a particular grave at home, unattended on Valentine's day, no one to stay there until the golden sun sets under the distant horizon and the stars glow. She would have fucking loved that.]

Ha. You wouldve liked seattle.

i think your allowed to miss your home
wish i could've seen it

I guess so.

I do miss it. And the people.

You're not so bad at sympathy you know.

ehh
well supposedly people get dropped here from places you know sometimes
so you know there's that

Yeah.

[Ugh. How does she talk about shit like this. it's so hard to explain.]

I'm not holding my breath.

[Honestly, Alex doesn't want to see anyone he knows from home come here, with one or two possible exceptions. It makes it that much easier to distance himself from everything.]

me neither.
just stay away from the vendors and stuff i guess
don't trade your memories and maybe wonderland can't pull stuff out of your world or whatever

Don't get me wrong, I mean... I'd love for someone I know to show up. [Most people, anyway.] I just... kind of doubt it will happen.

Don't you want to see anyone?

remember when i said almost everyone on that crew was a dick
well yeah i meant that
don't really miss them

[That and he killed all of them, or thought he did. lololololol]

kind of feels like a shot in the dark though now that you mention it

[Lol, Alex, so sentimental. He's more of a loner than she thought, then.]

Uh-huh. :\

Glad you don't have to put up with them, then.

i mean the people i DO like probably don't deserve to be stuck here so

Oh so there are actually people you like!

Kidding.

Some of my friends would rather be here.

psh there's like two don't worry
it doesn't make me any less heartless
the gf, the fam, you know, the usual

well in that case uh
maybe they'll show up?

I wouldn't dare suggest Alex Kralie has a heart.

I hope so. (-_-)

good cause that'd be a dirty dirty lie

well
good luck i guess?

Sure. Thanks for listening, Alex.
