Look, it's not that I have a problem with the idea. I don't. I should be with Abby. But...the fact is, you don't have a computer right now. You can't put me in there yet. So why keep talking about it? Be patient, okay? I really want to go be with my sister too, but it will happen in time.

What? What do you mean I'll need a life outside of my sister? I've never needed that before.

Comments

I was already in her journal so clearly I had to.

[handswillwork]

Of course you don't! You have the garage and you have me to drag you out of the garage. I think that's a pretty awesome life, personally.

My mun says yours is not allowed to stress out about this, and that it will happen eventually, and we can all wait till it's less inconvenient. And so do I.

clearly xD

[onlywaytolive]

It's the best life, Abs. And hey, maybe I'll be starting my own garage up when I get around to being around.

Yours should know mine stresses easily.

I just want to be there. I mean, I know I am technically, but I'm not. And I don't Luke to think about the four months your were gone...I pro ably didn't take that well.

[handswillwork]

Well, it's about time, Gabriel. You've missed the boat on being a child prodigy, there goes a whole line of advertising.

And that's why they're forbidding it, for whatever good it will do.

I know. It sucks, and I don't like thinking about it either. Any of it, but... especially that part. But it's not forever, right? We'll be okay.

[onlywaytolive]

I wasn't a child prodigy? Are you sure?

We're always okay, because in the end it's always us, right?

[handswillwork]

Not one with his own garage to sell on the premise of being one.

Always. Nothing's gonna change that.

[onlywaytolive]

So I'll find another selling point. Free air-fresheners, or sex. Sex sells, right?

Nope. Unless Del follows me. Then he might always be around.

[sugarpink]

They're not very good at the whole 'patience' thing, if there's anything I've learned from being trapped inside this one's head.

[onlywaytolive]

No they aren't. How do you manage?

[sugarpink]

Lots of alcohol! [ A beat. ] I'm kidding. Maybe.

[onlywaytolive]

A drinker?

[sugarpink]

Every once in a while. [ With muns, sometimes it's necessary! ] I take it you're really close to your sister?

[misfitted]

Yeah, I'm usually more impatient than my mun is so I don't ever have this problem. I have the opposite problem.

So is the Abby person you're talking about your sister?

[onlywaytolive]

I guess I'm more patient because even though I'm hiding in the shadows, I'm still there with her. If we were seperated I'd be....really impatient. [Read: a complete and total mess]

Yep! She's my twin. Or...I'm hers. Do you know her?

[misfitted]

Yeah, that makes sense. If you're still getting basically what you want, it's easier to be patient about it.

No, not really, but I live in Chicago too. I... ended up there after my sister did so I get the whole wanting to be where your sister is thing.

[onlywaytolive]

You're a Wanderer? It's kind of nice that you have each other. I mean...not that youythere, but....Chicago isn't so bad.

Sisters are like that, aren't they? Abby wanted to move to Chicago three years ago, so I came with. We've never lived apart.

[misfitted]

Yeah, I am. I've been in Chicago for over a year. It's a lot better than where I'm from.

They are. Elena was the only family I had left. We were the only family we had left so I wouldn't have wanted her to be there or anywhere without me.

Since you asked. <3

[findawaytogrow]

I kind of thought you'd be more worked up about this than she would. Considering the part where you really don't have a life outside your sister.

...She might be right about that one.

[Hello, pot. Meet kettle.]

yay!

[onlywaytolive]

I would be more worked up about it if we were actually apart. Like if I was waiting in New York to go to Chicago.

What about you? Do you have a life outside of your brother? And no, Til doesn't count.

[findawaytogrow]

Ah, that makes sense.

I have work, I have the girls. I even have friends with different last names. Not many, true, but some.

[onlywaytolive]

I have work and friends too!

[unwilled]

[Jake is not really sociable. He tends to be defensive around people, but Mia's talking to this guy... so. Here Jake is.]

Why're you so big about pushing for patience anyway?

[onlywaytolive]

Because everyone could be more patient.

[unwilled]

Yeah, I don't think so. When I want to do something, I just do it. I don't wait around. [Pause, eyeing him carefully rn.] I'm Jake.

[onlywaytolive]

Well there's a difference between that and being patient when it's necessary I think.

I'm Gabe.

[DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. he'll just be wary]

[unwilled]

Yeah, and what's that? How do you figure the difference and find later you're screwed at getting something you wanted but were fucked out of because you waited too long. But hey if that's your thing.

[LMFAO I AM SORRY GABE. Possessiveness thy name is Jake.]
