I guess now's as good a time as any to ask if anyone needs a brush up on battle magic? Just in case. It's not like we'll be thrown in the brig for it now and we can schedule around helping on the ship if necessary.

Everyone on your end okay?

	May it keep up, then. Ah. They might surprise you. But I'm happy to take advantage of the time in which they are not surprising you. He's Eliot. He's always kind of been that way. Even when I was a fucking shit of a person, he was there to make sure I knew I wasn't alone. It's just that now there's a different layer to everything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You know that you are not someone that I'm passing time with while I wait for something else, yes? That I enjoy my time with you, which is why I want to spend time with you?

You need to treat yourself better, even your past self that might have made mistakes. But I'm glad you have Eliot as...a friend? I'm not sure what to call him because it seems like 'friend' is not adequate enough to describe what he is to you.

I know. I’m just saying if something changes there, with them, and that’s what you can go after it and I’m going to enjoy what time there is here. I don’t know what’s going to happen in the future, but I’m enjoying now.

So many. Sometimes I look back and experience serious second hand embarrassment. There’s a lot of cringing involved. I don’t know if there’s a word for what we are, so friend is probably going to have to be adequate enough.

	So noble, so self-sacrificing. I don't like this side of you, Quentin, so how about you stop that? I appreciate what you're trying to say, but I like enjoying the moment. There's no need to plan for the future, whatever it is, when how it is now is more than enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It’s my volunteer tomato side. That’s what Jane Chatwin called me. Just keep volunteering. But you’re probably going to have to get used to my self-sacrificing ways. I’m told it’s uncureable. But okay. I’ll try not to volunteer tomato about this anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not exactly sure what that means, but I'm hoping you stopping being the volunteer tomato slice in this situation. I like you, I want to spend time with you, and I want to see you in suspenders again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jane had some weird descriptors. I guess it was all that time. Basically, there were 40 timelines. I volunteered to save us 39 times. And I would have done it a 40th, but I decided to change something, so I asked Alice to do it instead. So I guess just that's what I do. You and the suspenders. If you stop by later, I'll put them on just for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can you blame me? You look good in suspenders. I might have to raincheck that and make it tomorrow. Rogue wants me to stick close tonight, so I'm taking up their sofa for the night. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I went a long time in my life without wearing suspenders. I've only just now realized them for the dangerous and very useful tool in the seduction of attractive men that they are. It's okay. I can find something to do. (Reply to this) (Parent)
