Fortunately my target audience isn't the children of people who have my exact same beard and also appreciate wine.

[ Tony Stark doesn't get this shit. ]

[kyley_b]

is it new jersey housewives? cos my mom would love you.

you've got all your hair still tho! that's good!

[rehandle]

[ Not to be all 'kids these days have no respect' but kids these days have no respect. ]

Thank you, I feel so much better.

[kyley_b]

dude i live in fear of male pattern baldness.

do you really think your personality is that abrasive?

[rehandle]

I'm this far from wishing it on you.

Not constantly.

[ But, yes. ]

[kyley_b]

can you do that? curse people like that?

ok that's a revealing statement. why do you think you're such a dick?

[rehandle]

Maybe I can.

Is this a nature vs nurture question or a request for my sources?

[kyley_b]

so you've never tried.

let's do sources.

[rehandle]

No. I was hoping the possibility would be threat enough.

If we ignore the obvious element of me myself knowing and embracing and often enjoying that I can at times be an asshole, we've got the reliable reports of my closest friends and allies, the looks on the faces of the people to whom I've just been an asshole, and that one time I met another version of myself and he was, no prizes for the best guess here, a truly phenomenal example of an asshole. Need any more?

[kyley_b]

i won't push it. i am banking on my mom's genes saving me.

when did you meet another you? here? or back home?
and this is probably why you're not married, huh?

[rehandle]

I'll keep my fingers crossed for as long as I'm feeling magnanimous.

Neither, technically. Another dimension, but at least within my home multiverse. I imagine it's contributed.

Enough about me, my horrible middle aged facial hair and exactly how much of a dick I can be, what about you? Any potential mother-pleasing future spouses on the horizon?

[kyley_b]

thanks, dr. strange.

so you're very used to this sort of thing.

dude my mother will never be pleased, it's just not in her nature.

[rehandle]

I'd say I'm well-versed in crossing universal and/or dimensional lines and living through some weird shit in the process, yeah.

Ok. Let me try again: anyone you wish you didn't care about your mom's potential opinion of?

[ Do you fancy anybody Kyle, inquiring minds would for this brief pocket of time like to know ]

[kyley_b]

that kinda makes you and john and dirk and sollux really useful here, huh? like in terms of past experience with alternate realities.

oh. uh yeah but it's sorta complicated.

[rehandle]

We haven't got anyone out, and aside from John reputation doesn't seem to imply any of us are likely to bring anybody else much comfort on that front. But maybe we'll come in useful eventually.

[ Good to know that Dirk and Sollux are both part of the alternate reality mystery tour club, he'll have to follow up on that. ]

What isn't sort of complicated here?

[ Not quite an encouragement but certainly an open door to elaborate. A coax instead of a shove, since it really is none of his business. ]

[kyley_b]

well not everyone wants to leave. I meant more that you can walk people through the concept if they're freaking out.

ok true but like
we maybe had a moment of uhhh not traditional bonding involving death and destruction?

[rehandle]

Sure, as long as nobody's expecting to be made to feel better in the process.

[ I'm an asshole, etc etc, mostly a joke and moving swiftly on because Kyle's second pair of messages are much more interesting than reflecting on his own often awful bedside manner - ]

In a memory?

[kyley_b]

sometimes people don't need to be made to feel better. sometimes they need facts.

no. no, that would be a little less disturbing. so. i dunno what the protocol is for these situations.

[rehandle]

I'll concede the point.

Huh.
Have you spoken since?

[kyley_b]

uhm no we haven't had time. that's bad, isn't it?

[rehandle]

Not necessarily. It just might be an idea to find the time.

[kyley_b]

yeah. yeah, definitely.

you ever meet anybody who is just like
so beautiful it's scary?

[rehandle]

Yeah, I have. It pays to fight your fears.

[kyley_b]

who were they?

[rehandle]

Nice turnaround, neatly executed.

At the time I met her she was a fellow medical student, but the point is that I spoke to her and we had the chance to be happy. If you've got the time to reply to me, you've got time to talk to them.
