[ why must he act like an abandoned dog in the rain
the way he is of mind that thorns cares about him deeply but does not feel that deeply about their relationship itself… but, anyway. around midnight the next day: ]
Two more hours Don't stress about it if you're tired; there's always tomorrow
[ instead of staring into the distance, he should stare at his boyfriend? he turns on video calling and waves excitedly into the camera. everything is terrible and out of focus, but there are… bright red stains on his collar. wild. ]

thorns has so many questions, but this really isn't the kind of thing he wants to discuss over text. ]
When are you free to talk?
no subject
a five minute gap where he doesn't say anything… does thorns wants to follow-up or will there just be silence… ]

This weekend, do you mind staying up a little late?

no subject
[ like a dog waiting for its owner to come home... ]
no subject
but this is a lot of pressure… ]
There are events I need to go to, but I'll try to make it back early. Don't wait up too long.
no subject
[ he will wait for long. unfortunately his thoughts are deeply haunted by elysium's situation. ]
