omg stop i live with one

i just dont think its really a risk for me to go like get a coffee or something??? like sure i dont want to be a vampire + dying and turning would be a nightmare that i literally couldnt wake up from + itd ruin my life but i just
still dont see why i cant leave the house

[mcferrin]

Leave then?

[extent]

i dont want to upset kyle

[mcferrin]

Yo, have you explained to him that while you definitely don't want to become a vampire - an eternal state of being undead, forever - you also don't want to stay home (the only place where the odds of this happening are 0%) for one more day because you're really bored?

I think he would understand, actually.

[extent]

he actually wasnt very understanding of my pov
i'm pretty sure i'd be fine i usually am

[mcferrin]

I'm blocking you again to give you time to think about what you just said.
Then I might snitch to Nate.

[extent]

god u die one (1) time + suddenly everyone thinks ur the king of deaths or something
are we forgetting all the times i bounced back like a very versatile rubber band

dont be a snitch henry thats so mean 🥺

[mcferrin]

I know they have the phrase "better safe than sorry" in Maine or wherever you're from.

[extent]

alaska smh do people even live in maine

[mcferrin]

[ henry is going to strangle him ]

Hold on one second.

[ straight up hands his phone to gansey ]

[bimodal]

( there's a look to henry.

then a look to the phone, on the last few messages because he is respectfully not reading up.

then: )

Hello, Henry has given me his phone.

There are over 1.3 million people living in Maine, just so you're aware

And it is better to be safe than sorry. If you're struggling, have you considered inviting someone over?

[extent]

is that true or is it a govt lie to make u think the state exists

hi henry's friend i did in fact consider that but then i also considered the fact that even with company i think i'm going insane so
🤷‍♂️

[bimodal]

Gansey. I'm fairly certain it isn't a government lie. Given current circumstances, I'm not able to provide definite proof though.

Do you want me to bring you a coffee? I understand staying in one place may feel stifling, but given your circumstances, it'll not only keep you safe but help those around you feel like you are being as safe as possible.

We could play a board game.

[extent]

i guess that means we're both right

like
ok
i absolutely do want a coffee + idk maybe a board game is a good suggestion actually but i also think im very much not like
first time meeting appropriate right now
i feel a little bit like im crawling inside my own skull + that is so not a vibe i would hate 2 make a foul impression

[bimodal]

Understood.
Is there anyone we can call for you?

[extent]

im not tryna inflict people on this torment i want to inflict myself on the outside

u could send critter pics tho i miss them :(

[bimodal]

Of course. Give me a moment.

( the pictures come from gansey's phone, of all the theater critters. some featuring henry, some with just the critters themselves, and some with the selfie camera turned on and the camera pointing down to the critter as gansey offers them pets. )

[extent]

theres a container kind of hidden just inside near the door to the courtyard that has lil snacks + shit they can eat
also if you whistle a tune some of them dance its very cute

pls tell every single one that i love them + i will see them tomorrow

[mcferrin]

They're hostages now.
If you set foot in the street the scaly one gets it.

[extent]

😩you cant i love them

[mcferrin]

Then you know what to do.

[extent]

:( awful awful tactics

did u give each of them individually a little kiss + tell them it was from me

[mcferrin]

I will if you send me proof of your location.

[extent]

( he gets a selfie for his troubles — nick on his bed with chester on his shoulder, and what appears to be an enormous ball of fur behind him.

not that a room that henry has never been in before is particularly identifying, but the space around him is distinctly nick-like, at least. piles of paper littered everywhere across the bed with supposedly helpful sticky notes on both the notes, the books and the wall, plants crammed everywhere that they can go. an awful lot like his work space, actually, just spread out across a bed instead of a bench. )

[mcferrin]

Very well.

[ he switches to facetime so he can show himself giving every critter a little kiss and going "that was from nick" "he still loves you" "he's sorry for causing a vampire emergency" ]
