I mean, I pretty much learned it for you.

[ so. and yeah john is maybe trapped but at least dave is almost entirely tension free now, even if he's still clingy. ]

[windeity]

[Now he wants to know what the hell it is?? Dave that's so rude. But sure, he has a cat clinging and John just nods along.]

Then I guess I will wait until then.

[parodeity]

Birthday traditions?

[windeity]

Is that what we're calling it now?

[parodeity]

I meant, do you have any you wanna do.

[windeity]

Oh. [Hm. He seems to be contemplating and with that his hand's sort of moving across Dave's back without registering it.] Presents first thing in the morning, cake, movie night watching my favorite movie...those are about the main traditions I have. So kind of hard to do those but the thought's nice.

[parodeity]

[ that's soothing enough dave doesn't even register it. he just lets it happen. ] I can do the first one and do a dramatic rendition of Ghostbusters?

[windeity]

Okay personally I would find that hilarious so that has to be a thing now. Do you even remember how Ghostbusters goes?

[parodeity]

I remember the plot and the meme-able quotes. Ish.

[ ...........SO.................THAT SHOULD BE FUN............. ]

[windeity]

Did you know Jade didn't know why you're not supposed to cross the streams? [A tragedy.]

[parodeity]

How happy are you that you can actually tell someone you're a god? [ because, like: ] When someone asks you if you're a god, you say yes!

[windeity]

[He immediately starts cracking up.] This is why you're my best friend. Exactly reasons like this.

[parodeity]

Poor baby. Goin' through meme withdrawal? It's a serious condition that is totally ignored by modern medical science, although I have submitted it to them for approval like twenty times.

[windeity]

Gee, I wonder why that is. [He's still laughing though.] I will maybe admit I miss memes. And the internet. And technology in general.

[parodeity]

I miss my phone and my laptop not bein' completely dead and forever locked from me usin' them.

[windeity]

We have to get electricity back eventually if we keep doing these quest things. Right? [Please for the love of god.]

[parodeity]

I wish that were the case but I'm unconvinced. Maybe electricity just isn't aesthetic enough.

[windeity]

For the whole fairytale thing? Maybe not, but neither are laptops. I think maybe they're not sure what brand they're going for here.

[parodeity]

Honestly can they really be called laptops? They reach one single solitary board and it is almost entirely meme free. I am the only one contributing to the cause.

[windeity]

I mean it's like ancient internet so maybe. I think that is probably because you are the only one who is that passionate about memes. Is it really a worthy cause?

[parodeity]

Remind me why you're my best friend again?

[windeity]

Because I actually think your jokes are funny?

[parodeity]

I will have you know that is not unique to you??

[windeity]

Okay, then because I'm almost as cool as you are. [Things that aren't a real answer: that.]

[parodeity]

That has to be the least true thing you've ever said. [ but it's nice. john's voice and a hand rubbing at his back and being more or less draped over john in a hug. his best friend cannot get away like this and dave doesn't have to worry he's disappeared or turned into a statue because he's very demonstrably right here. his breathing is evening out but he's still awake for the moment. ]
