MirkerLurker:Max probably doesn’t want to hear about this stuff.
Apocalypse_Cow:actually, emmy built it up a lot and now i kind of want to know too.
MirkerLurker:Fine! Fine.
MirkerLurker:Dark hair, dark eyes. Taller than me. Built like a football player.
Apocalypse_Cow:a football player is writing fanfiction? remind me what world we live in.
emmersmacks:Im sure there are plenty of football players who also partake of the occasional fanfiction
emmersmacks:Go on E
MirkerLurker:He found me in the courtyard during lunch and came out to eat with me. It’s kind of weird though—he only talks sometimes, I guess, so we wrote everything down.
MirkerLurker:He showed me this thing he’s working on.
I stop. I could tell them exactly what it is, but Wallace didn’t give it to me so I could go blab about it to people. Especially not Emmy and Max—I love them, but if they know someone is trying to transcribeMonstrous Sea, and if they know I think it’s really good, they’re going to want to read it too.
I don’t want them to read it. Not only would it be without Wallace’s knowledge or permission, it would kind of ruin this happy little bubble I’m in right now. It’s a secret between me and Wallace, and I like it. I like being the only one who knows.
emmersmacks:What thing
MirkerLurker:Just some fanfiction. Haven’t read it yet though.
Apocalypse_Cow:is he on the forums? what’s his username?
MirkerLurker:Don’t know. We didn’t really get to that point.
I don’t even know if Wallace is on the forums, though I feel like it’s difficult not to know about the forums if you’re aMonstrous Seafan. Maybe Wallace doesn’t post his work online.
Davy whines. I glance at the clock; it’s dinnertime. He’s standing at the door; I let him out so he can run to the kitchen, where Mom is already pouring his food. Church and Sully come pounding up the stairs as Davy goes down, and I shut my door before they can force their way into my room.
emmersmacks:Is that all you talked about?? Fanfiction??
emmersmacks:Boring
MirkerLurker:You’ve been watching too much Dog Days.
MirkerLurker:I’m pretty sure you don’t have to suddenly have some super-deep relationship with someone as soon as you meet them.
Apocalypse_Cow:are you saying we didn’t have a super-deep relationship as soon as we met?
Apocalypse_Cow:offended.
MirkerLurker:>.>
MirkerLurker:I don’t know how to tell you this, Max, but uhhhh ...
Apocalypse_Cow:no. the time has passed for all that. i am in a happy, committed relationship, and neither of you can talk me out of it.
MirkerLurker:How is Heather, anyway?
Apocalypse_Cow:well, she got a job with that modeling agency ...
emmersmacks:-_-
Apocalypse_Cow:she’s teaching sixth grade.
