Just found out most of his friends are no longer at the game his mun's apping him back to

[ijustlivehere]

Why didn't you tell me?

[He's pacing back and forth, and stops only to slam a fist against the wall.]

All this time I've been saying let me go back 'cause everyone's there?

Stephen? Hanna? Demyx? Who else?!

It's your fault for not letting me go back sooner. I always...

[Offers him a shot of tequila]

[ijustlivehere]

[He downs it quickly and shudders.]

Eugh. What was that?

[350pointsmile]

If that's what floats your boat yeah.

[ijustlivehere]
