You know the drill. I might get back to you. Or not. Depends on how exciting things are.

Hey, just checking if you're okay

Re: Text

[definecat]

Why wouldn't I be?

[robintohood]

The anti-meta stuff has ramped up a lot more ever since those cracks in the sky showed up. Things have gotten worse in Central

[definecat]

I ended up moving in with Dylan and Eddie at their request. So I'm not in Central. It's over a day's drive from here.

[robintohood]

You got out just in time then. I hope you guys stay safe. There've been angry mobs around humanoid metas so I hate to imagine how well some of them will take to aliens

[definecat]

Guess I will make sure not to be seen if I have to return.

[robintohood]

Yeah. I hope you got something besides using a host

[definecat]

If I don't want to be seen, I won't be.

[robintohood]

That's it? Just like that?

[definecat]

Essentially.

[robintohood]

[Jason's assuming this has to do with their shapeshifting abilities]

Good. Hopefully some of the other cities aren't as big of a mess

[definecat]

I will probably stay and protect my family. Hopefully nobody has plans on doing anything too stupid, but you never know with them.

[robintohood]

Yeah, humans have a real talent of working against their own interests

[definecat]

Not only humans.

[robintohood]

Other species too?

[definecat]

I don't think any sentient species has truly cornered the market on headstrong stupidity.

[robintohood]

I guess that's good to know

hey sleeper would it be weird if i started calling the eddie here "dad" bc i feel like itd be weird

like i kind of want to but i also kind of don't? what if dad back home somehow finds out? that'd crush him, right? we both know he has self-esteem issues

[definecat]

If it feels right, you should do it. We can deal with any hurt feelings when that trouble shows up.

Eddie isn't quite as delicate as you might think. Either one. Although I did spend some time bonded with your father before I met you. We had to get Venom back.

[codicies]

yeah... when you were a baby, right?

I guess you're right. I'm just paranoid that if dad ever comes here I'll make a dumb mistake and drive him away. Or I'll drive this Eddie away. I don't know.

[definecat]

Don't borrow trouble. Enough finds you on its own. I'm probably an example of that.

[codicies]

you're the opposite of trouble. You've bailed my ass out more than a couple times.

[definecat]

keep believing that. And believe in yourself, too, while you're at it.

( christmas gift )

[exasperation]

[ sleeper gets some prime catnip for christmas. and the best chewtoy on the market. ]

[robintohood]

[At some point before Christmas, a package for Sleeper arrives at the Brocks' Little Love home. Inside is a BPA-free half-gallon-sized bucket, a large box of high quality dark chocolates, and an adjustable phone tripod.

There's also a simple printed card that says "Merry Christmas - Jason"]
