WHAT in person
WHERE all over
WHEN 32nd day
NOTES it's a deage post

[it's a beautiful day!

by someone's standards!

which is to say, the entire town is darkly overcast and gloomy, and starting in the morning, there are scattered showers intermittently around the town. it's light enough that it isn't bothersome, barely noticeable, really, but you may find yourself feeling a bit different after you've past through one. like it's taken a few years off your life— quite literally.

or maybe it doesn't effect you at all! and you just want to go for a walk in the rain. you do you.]

[rolls her eyes]

Stay optimistic, Tony.

[appliedscience]

[disbelieving!!]

You're messing with me.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

We're friends, at best.

[appliedscience]

Unbelievable. What happened? Please tell me I don't have a disfiguring lab accident or something.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Nope.

Anyway, aren't you getting a few decades ahead of yourself?

[appliedscience]

Taking advantage of a clear look into my future.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Your future that you're most likely going to forget about as soon as you leave?

[appliedscience]

[a huff, obviously she's right]

You can't tell me you wouldn't want to know.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

I think it'd depend on what age you caught me at.

[appliedscience]

Nah, I don't believe that. Everyone is too curious for that.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Oh, everyone, huh?

[not mocking or disagreeing, just a little amused. he's so youuuuung.]

[appliedscience]

Yeah, of course. Unless all I have to look forward to in adulthood is intellectual stagnation.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

No, I think you do okay for yourself.

[appliedscience]

Then what about you? Why wouldn't you want to know about yourself? Sounds short sighted.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Oh, I would now, and I probably would have when I was your age. But if you caught me around age thirty I think I'd have been pretty stubborn about it.

[appliedscience]

Why's that?

[what are boundaries]

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Maybe it's classified.

[appliedscience]

Oh, now I really want to know.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

It's not classified. It was just a point in my life when I was afraid of the future. I'm just saying, it's dangerous to make statements about "everyone".

[appliedscience]

Was it really dangerous? Or just in this particular case wrong. Don't be hyperbolic, it's 'dangerous'.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Smartass.

[mildly]

[appliedscience]

Genius, actually.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Did someone tell you those are mutually exclusive?

[appliedscience]

Prioritizing my descriptor.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Uh huh. Well, try not to get in too much trouble.
