Text me like a normal person. BEEP.

Don’t feel bad about it, plenty of people have stuff they don’t want to do for completely unrelated reasons. Max is safe but that don’t mean everyone is. I hate having to do the talk with people before anything happens. [They chuckle, trying to keep things from feeling too serious.] It’s a bigger cockblock than the actual problem, I swear. Maybe one day I’ll find a sexy way to do it. [But without putting them in danger, that’s always the issue.]

[jengohshit]

That's true. I mean, there's definitely been...both actively unsafe people and just, people who want to ask you a million questions which isn't the same thing as unsafe, but doesn't mean I want to deal with it.

[ralliesprotests]

I feel you there. I don’t mind answering most questions, but it’s a right mood killer. Sometimes I reckon I should write a pamphlet or something.

[jengohshit]

Yes! I'll answer questions when we're not, you know, busy. Ask all your shit when we're done, you know?

[ralliesprotests]

Exactly, right? Sometimes it's like, do you want me to go down on you or not? There was this one lass, once, right, who--

[Rowan catches themself.] Sorry, I can overshare sometimes. It's nice to have someone who understands again, though.

[jengohshit]

No, it's good, it's...I mean, yeah, it's good to have someone who understands. Overshare all you like, I'm here for it.

[ralliesprotests]

[Rowan chuckles.] You say that now, but given the amount of fucking going on here, you probably don't want to hear about all of my escapades. Unless you want to compare notes sometime or something.

[jengohshit]

I mean, I'm a hundred percent happy to compare notes, and also, I like hearing stories. Like potentially in a sex way, but also in a, I'll be happy for you as my friend having good sex way.

[ralliesprotests]

[Now that's an idea for sex that Rowan hadn't thought about before, and they're not sure what to make of it, aside from that, like everything else, they'd be interested to try it.]

I mean, I have plenty of stories, but not necessarily sexy ones. [They laugh.] I've never really done anything exciting. [Before coming here, anyway.]

[jengohshit]

Guess it's good you're here then, eh? [You can just hear the dirty grin.]

[ralliesprotests]

[Rowan chuckles.]

I told you, right? I don't mind this place all that much. And I got a more than a couple of good reasons going for that. [Max and Lucas being the immediate two that spring to mind, but there's certainly others that they're looking forward to spending more time with.]

[jengohshit]

Yeah, I like it here. It's good when people aren't...chafing at it. I understand it and some days I do too, still. But finding happiness here is possible, if you want it.

[ralliesprotests]

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I miss home, and I'm pissed they decided to take stuff from me, but I'm always one to make the best of a situation anyway.

But in any case. You good with everything for now, or did you need me for something else?

[jengohshit]

Nah, I'll let you go. But you know, as always, thanks just for...being here. Letting me...have feelings at you.

[ralliesprotests]

And, as always, it's never a problem. You can always grab me when you need me, okay?

Oh, but at some point we should go hang out and at least try and talk about other stuff. [They laugh, knowing that it'll probably inevitably end up swinging back to it, but at least they can try.] We can go for a drink or something?

[jengohshit]

Yeah, absolutely. Once I'm, you know, back to usual. I'm pretty much free all the time, I don't work or anything. I'm retired, thank you very much.

[ralliesprotests]

[Rowan chuckles at that.]

Understandable. Let me know when things have settled down, then, and I'll give you a date and a time. And remember, you can always grab me to chat in the meanwhile. Look after yourself! [And with a wave that Vax can't see, they'll end the call.]
