( he definitely stares at those last words there for a long time. )

things are just hard right now.

[notrosecolored]

Yeah, they are. Is anything going on that I don't know about? Or would you rather I Not ask?

[overconfidently]

i failed quota and they drugged me. i acted in ways i normally don't.

[notrosecolored]

That kind of manipulation and loss of control is always shitty, especially in the wake of a loss.

[overconfidently]

( he's not going to go into details obviously, but he figures saying he acted in ways he normally doesn't is enough to get the point across. )

yeah. i hate that i couldn't fight it.

[notrosecolored]

[ Yes, thank you.]

I failed quota once. Never again.

[overconfidently]

i didn't renew with steve because i just need to figure things out. deal with stuff.

[notrosecolored]

It's not a terrible idea. There's a kind of grace period built in. There's nothing wrong with using it.

[overconfidently]

yeah. he was upset but i need to do this for me.

[notrosecolored]

He'll be ok.

[overconfidently]

i know. at least mom's back.

[notrosecolored]

Yeah. seems like a lot of... give and take here. I'm glad she's back.

[overconfidently]

she shouldn't be here. but i'm selfish in feeling glad she is.

[notrosecolored]

I'm not sure it's selfish. The alternative is dead and she wants to be here.

[overconfidently]

i guess i don't like the thought of this place doing to her what it did to me or you.

[notrosecolored]

She's not... likely to have that happen.

[overconfidently]

( before this gets into whether or not his parents are sleeping together, he's just going to gently steer this another way. )

ok. but thanks. for letting me stay.

[notrosecolored]

It really isn't a problem. I'll try to keep Mid out of your way..

[overconfidently]

yeah. probably a good idea.

( since he's not saying sorry to him. )

[notrosecolored]

I have those once in a while.

[overconfidently]

also i don't have a dominant now. so i can't buy food or stuff for myself.

[notrosecolored]

I'll take care of it.

[overconfidently]

( just like when he first arrived. )

thanks. i appreciate it.
