Fine

[He'll get it out of you, Dave. HE'LL GET IT OUT OF YOU.

But for now he'll allow it to drop.]

Though I'm starting to think that's going to apply to more than a handful of morons here.

you mean like the girl you met
thats kind of a disturbing thought that the heart threw us in with a pack of actual criminals
also wouldnt make much sense with its supposed motive of bringin in folks who can help keep the town safe but i think weve already established that the hearts full of shit
most of the people ive met so far seem normal enough though

And there's apparently a lunatic wearing a crown around here somewhere
At least that's what the annoyingly peppy redhead told me
3 wackjobs is 3 too many.

oh man for real?
damn
we oughta start making a list of nutcases to avoid

Way ahead of you friend

[Well, not just nutcases but still.]

Are you still burning everything?
If you figure out what mental gymnastics you need to do to turn off these powers let me know.

youre really keeping on top of things huh
considering the circumstances thats hella impressive
is that what you spent your week in self imposed exile doing

ive moved on to glassmaking now
im at the beach so
its
pretty bad
did you know it takes temperatures of 1760 degrees celsius to turn sand into glass
but yeah of course
i wouldnt leave you hanging
and this isnt about how to turn it off exactly but i ran into that robin guy i mentioned a moment ago and this might be relevant
it turns out he landed the same power you did and hes been having similar issues with it
apparently as soon as he lets his mind wander a lil his powers start creating things based off of what hes thinking about
so say its approaching chowtime soon and hes thinkin maybe hell go for some chinese
next thing he knows hes filled his room up with a tiny mountain of fried rice without even meaning to
is that maybe whats happening here
are the eyes maybe a thing thats appearing because youve got being watched on the brain
maybe on account of that girl youve been all gung ho about avoiding??
i dunno im just throwing ideas out here

That's what I meant when I said I had to "think", yeah.

[HAHAHA NO he was hiding but Dave doesn't need to know that.]

You're getting THAT hot?
That could be useful if it weren't so incredibly out of control

I wasn't really thinking about her actually WATCHING me though.

[UNTIL NOW. THANKS DAVE.]

I was trying to get a chair from my room like I normally do but instead I got THAT thing. That's what I brought in myself. The eyes just started to fade in like they were there the whole time but weren't.

And yes I realize it makes no sense.
Don't tell anyone about this.

[What is this vulnerable sensation he doesn't like it.]

ill get it under control
or id better
i cant survive like this being as hot as the surface of the fucking sun this is bullshit

[...oh. oh god, oh fuck, oh man, jesus fuck. hahaha, what... does he say? what does he do? he's kind of already told...]

um
so by this do you mean
the eye thing or just the item generation thing in general
because i kind of
didnt realize you were telling me this stuff in confidence and
uh well
im probably going to sound like the worlds biggest piece of shit right now
but i ran into pokey earlier and so obviously i asked him if he was having any issues with his powers right just on the off chance this thing had to do with our halloween escapades and not the network post
and it turns out youre probably right about it being about the network post because he wasnt having any issues but
he got the same power you did so i
kinda figured maybe id give him a heads up about how maybe his power could backfire from overuse or
i dunno
maybe i thought he could help you figure out how to get yours in check since he seemed to have it together??
man
fuck
i shouldve asked first if it was cool to do that this was really shitty of me
you trusted me with that info and i didnt
i mean
jesus christ
i never wouldve said a thing if i had known you werent cool with it but
i guess
im not thinking too clearly on account of the whole heatstroke thing??
man im making dumb excuses for myself nobody wants to hear that shit
my bad

[oh god he doesn't know what to type to make this okay. please don't hate him]

[Oh god damn it.

Of all people.

OF ALL PEOPLE.]

You told POKEY?
How detailed did you get?
Did you tell him about the eyes?

Are you FUCKING crazy?

[oh god oh god oh god]

um
well
maybe???
i mentioned you made a chair and eyes started appearing all over the place without you meaning for them to
im really sorry ok

Just tell everyone I have no control over this stupid power why don't you?
I can't believe I had to tell you NOT to mention this to anyone
How did you phrase it? Tell me exactly how you phrased it.

pokey was the only one i told
i dont think hes the type to go around telling anybody else but i texted him just now telling him to keep it to himself
he said he would if that makes you feel any better
i know that doesnt make it ok but
anyway i just mentioned you got the same power he did but yours came with a nasty backfire so he should be careful while testing his out
and
i think i may have also said some stuff about how you could poke the eyes into going away but you couldnt get rid of the chair

No, that doesn't make me feel any better
You have any idea how crazy that makes me sound?

[POKEY HAS IT IN FOR HIM EVERYONE HAS IT IN FOR HIM!!!]

what no come on youre being too hard on yourself
its completely normal to have issues with your power when you first get it
hell its practically expected
the hearts just being a gargantuan dick to you and thats not a thing anybodys gonna give you shit for unless theyre just complete douches
in which case fuck em who cares what they think anyway
actually im pretty sure most people can sympathize

I don't need a pep talk from you
You don't understand what you just did, but I wouldn't expect you too
I guess I EXPECTED too much from you

youre worried that people are gonna judge you because of this right
but pokeys not the type of dude whod do a thing like that
hell when he heard he said he might try to see if he could help out any

[Nope. At this point the best punishment, he feels, is to just ignore Dave's texts.

Besides, he has to go back to his room to take care of that thing and reflect on this stupid situation.]

gary??

dude
gare

are you still there
cmon if you dont check in im gonna start thinking you got caught by that girl

oh man
is that what happened
are you ok does she have you metaphorically tied up with her viney powers again
or
literally tied up???

bro youve gotta say something youre seriously freaking me out here where are you
oh man i never shouldve told you to leave your room

ok well i guess whatever happened you cant get to your phone right now so im typing all of this for nothing
just talking to myself like a gargantuan chump
so
i guess
maybe ill come find you??

or wait
if youre just sitting there not replying cause youre busy with other things

[READ: BEING MAD AT DAVE]

then whatever ive got a lot on my plate too
so just forget i sent all that cause its not really a big deal
hell im so busy over on my end i probably wont even remember what we talked about in a bit
later
