[splinten]

I missed you most.

[A dumb thing to repeat, but. Dave's being awkward so Dirk will let go.]

Ok. So you'll text me when you're done with Rose and John and Jade, and I guess Hotaru or whoever else?

[parodeity]

[ it takes him a second, but: ]

I missed you most, too.

[ he kind of shrugs at the question. ]

That won't take me too long. I'll just head home whenever I'm done, and...see you tomorrow or later tonight?

[splinten]

[This is the second time he hears 'tomorrow'.]

You're expectin' me to stay the night with Jake.

[Dave.]

[parodeity]

No. [ genuinely honest. ] I don't expect anythin' either way and don't mind either way?

[ A SHRUG. dave doesn't seem to be deflecting, though admittedly it can be hard to tell. but he isn't for what it's worth! ]

That's kind of not up to me to predict or decide, since it's more to do with the two of you. My plans are pretty nebulous myself, honestly.

[splinten]

[God. He just. Puts his face in his hands for a minute.]

I'll be back before night. See you in a few hours, maybe.

[parodeity]

[ LOOK... ]

Probs. I don't think John will drag me off for a movie sleepover, although he has threatened me with such things before.

[ not...that dave would put up a fight? Whatever. ]

[splinten]

Just let me know if he does.

[Because then he would probably spend the night with Jake or even Roxy? But he will not if Dave does not have a sleepover with John.]

[parodeity]

I kinda doubt he will. I'm thinkin' he might have other interests to attend to.

[ hard to say, with john. dave figures he'll be updated on that whenever john gets around to it. ]

[splinten]

Just tell me. [He flashes in for one more hug before letting Dave go? He will go take care of things because HE INTENDS ON COMING BACK TO DAVE BEFORE NIGHTFALL!]

[parodeity]

[ DIRK...DAVE WAS HONEST WHEN HE SAID WHENEVER WAS FINE...

he probably is not having a sleepover with john though because tbh he keeps putting off things like slumber parties at the base. maybe someday, john. ]

[splinten]

[Ok but this is underestimating how DIRK misses his brother?????? And therefore Dave gets a text later]

Are you around?

[parodeity]

y
hanging w/ obama why

[splinten]

Ready to come home if the 44th President of the United States doesn't have priority on me.

[parodeity]

whats your ranking in the us government system?

[splinten]

I think I might be classified an enemy of the state.

[parodeity]

then if youre asking based on governmental priority i guess obama has us all beat
since i dont think anyone has a rank higher than president rn???
magister might be id have to ask rose re her fancy fantasy terminology

[splinten]

A magister would not trump a head of state.
Be home in fifteen.

[parodeity]

i feel like this is an argument with rose waiting to happen

[splinten]

I'd be interested to see how she would argue it.

[parodeity]

well
shes been denied a lot of that kind of argument of late i think so
you could start it off w/ her

[splinten]

But who will referee?

[parodeity]

im not sure anyone is qualified to referee the two of you
in your own realm
where the fuck were you that itll take fifteen to get home btw
off island?

[splinten]

Floater Island.
What are you talking about? Me and Rose are completely grounded when we get into a discussion.

[parodeity]

oh got it
as someone who has spent six+ years discussing shit with rose
i call fucking bullshit

[splinten]

You are slander city, bro.
Libel Town, Population You.
Me and Rose would visit you but we're so deep underground we can't reach you in your airy realm of defamation.
