[Jake has been bumming around the alphapartment, depressed and watching movies and trying both to isolate himself and to find solace in whatever company he could get. It's been a few days and Dirk still hates him, or so he's convinced himself, and he is very depressed that he's lost his best friend.

He's on the couch with a huge pile of movies on the floor next to it, watching somewhat blankly with an empty bowl of popcorn. He's never been so unenthusiastic about watching movies in his life.]

	Lucky you. Go talk to Roxy about the way he treats people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not even Roxy seems to hate him near as much as you do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I demand that you stop speaking ill of him! He was there for me when you weren't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ That ruffles Dirk's feathers so hard. ] Of fucking course he was! He's just better than me in every conceivable way, isn't he? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I didn't say that at all!! You're putting words in my mouth!! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You didn't have to say it! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't think it either. What the frig is the matter with you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-10-28 03:54 am UTC (link)
	[ He slams a fist into the wall behind him and squeezes his eyes shut from anger. ] More like what isn't the matter with me, am I right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-10-28 03:55 am UTC (link)
	[A frown.] He was right, wasn't he. I was right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What are you talking about? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-10-28 04:29 am UTC (link)
	I'm not surprised you don't remember, you were pretty keen not to talk to me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-10-28 04:32 am UTC (link)
	Wh... [ And then it comes crashing down around him. You don't have to hate yourself. ] ...You still don't know what you're talking about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-10-28 04:34 am UTC (link)
	[Jake gets up and nears Dirk, staring at him right in the shades with a forlorn expression.] We've been friends for how long, Dirk...and you still think that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-10-28 04:36 am UTC (link)
	[ Oh no no no. Dirk backs away. ] That doesn't make you privy to what's in my head, Jake. [ Maybe not, Dirk, but you've said a lot of damning things in this very conversation. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-10-28 04:40 am UTC (link)
	I'm not as stupid as you think I am, Dirk!! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-10-28 04:42 am UTC (link)
	It's also none of you-- [ Except how can he say that in good conscience after all the shit he's pulled? He covers his face and growls in frustration. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[And because he's Jake. Time for tears.] I just want things to go back to how they were before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Shoulders slump. His voice comes out worryingly quiet. ] I don't think that's possible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-10-29 02:00 pm UTC (link)
	Why not? [He pouts, gestures.] I'm willing to try. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He sighs. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Shoulder slump, and he looks at his feet.] Are you just...forcing it? [Does Dirk really not want to be friends again?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
