Tick tock—
Can you feel the pressure building?
Do you see the cracks in the walls from the choices you’re making?
Time’s running out and it’s gonna pull you under.
Caught fighting for a future full of terrible wonder.

[inthesaferoom]

do you think I was literally born yesterday

Please

I was christened on timeline knowledge I've known more about this shit since I was three than most people know about how to fart

[foralltime]

Disappointingly vulgar... are you afraid, Michael? Worried, maybe, about that baby of yours?

[inthesaferoom]

Excuse me?

💬

You know threatening him will only get you bad shit right

Kiss my ass

[foralltime]

I’m not really in the business of making threats, only moves.
The child is safe, I assure you.

That daughter of yours… smart as a whip, you know…
Oops. Spoilers.
Minor enough though, I suppose.

[inthesaferoom]

uh huh

You know who my mama is right

You know who I learned from

You sure about this

[foralltime]

I am quite acquainted with her, actually.
Mommy’s good little soldier, huh?
Typical.

[inthesaferoom]

nah, not me

But my knife is

[foralltime]

Is that what you’re calling…him these days? Fascinating.

[inthesaferoom]

what

No really WHAT

who are you threatening now because step carefully

[foralltime]

I don’t mean your… well, I suppose fiancé is the best word at the moment, isn’t it? But if Reed is your concern… don’t be. He certainly isn’t mine.

[inthesaferoom]

okay so either the half baked copycat or something else I guess

[foralltime]

Oh, he’s half something already but I don’t know if baked is the right word.

[inthesaferoom]

nah he's smarter than me and doesn't do drugs

Unless I was a drug

[foralltime]

You two are worse than an addicts drug of choice to each other but you already know that, don’t you?

[inthesaferoom]

friend, I didn't kill myself with narcan to escape him

Drugs are still worse

I mean almost

Almost kill

[foralltime]

The way i see it, you rarely succeed in escaping him at all.

More like… magnets. Drawn together, no matter how much anyone tries to separate you.

Have you figured out yet, what it means?

[inthesaferoom]

yeah it means everyone should kinkshame me so proceed

[foralltime]

You do know that it’s more than that, don’t you? That’s just… a certain manifestation of it, really.

[inthesaferoom]

Sure

You probably think there's exactly five more things about it huh

[foralltime]

I wouldn’t go quite that far.

[inthesaferoom]

oh you wouldn't

So you don't have a handle on obsession

[foralltime]

I don’t obsess.
I simply pay attention to the details.

[inthesaferoom]

you know

I used to talk to him about what name you would have

By him you know who I fucking mean

We decided that if you ever accepted one it would only be from him

And only uttered by him

But that's a different memory isn't it?

Tell me, is the real deal on this group text?

Or do you have us all to yourself?

Typical. You gonna yell at your twin some more? Fucking pathetic. So where did you deviate? What's your Nexus event?

You still a baby or think you're old enough I should keep an eye on my husband? Sorry, he'll only fold for an old me and that ain't happening anytime soon

[foralltime]

Quite different all together, yes.

The real deal?

Do you find yourself particularly entertaining?
Good to know you’ve been studying.
Have you caught the rest of the gang up or are you doing that terribly tired routine of handling it all on your own, which never works, need I remind you…

I don’t think you have to worry about that just yet.

🔐 Five, Michael

[forasecond]

…is that true?
