EXTRA: I am a marginalized other. ...I'm probably hipster scum.

Anyway! I manage at an adult store back home. I like reading, smoking pot and waxing philosophical while I'm doing it, and meeting awesome people. So how about hit me up for that last bit? I promise you don't have to be into the first two to chill with me.

You sound like you'd be made of funnnnnn to hang with. Particularly like the hipster scum part ;p

[marginalized]

👍

I'm a joy to be around. Hi, I'm Alex.

[bettedaviseyes]

You definitely sound it. I'm Cori, nice to 'meet' you!

Also, totally re-read, but I'm betting the adult store comes with some fun and interesting stories, amirite?

[marginalized]

Nice to meet you, too, Cori.

Oh for sure, how could it not? What do you do? Does it come with good stories? I'll be really upset if this has to be a one-sided good story-telling relationship, you know.

[bettedaviseyes]

I totes want some of those stories to be told. To me. And I probably have a few good ones up my sleeve between the family vineyard and college shenanigans. I def hold my own, Alex, don't you worry!

[marginalized]

Ha, awesome, then we'll have to swap stories sometime for sure.

[bettedaviseyes]

Definitely! I'm gonna look forward to it, Mr. Marginalized Other.

[marginalized]

Sweet, me too. I'll see you around, Cori

Hello, Alex Mitchell. I'm Jace. Where do you get your stash?

[marginalized]

👍

Sup, Jace? I got mine at home and had it on me when I got here, so I don't know how useful I'll be in finding it here, if it's even a thing, but I have some for now to last a short while, in any case.

[premedicated]

Oh. Well if you find a place to get it, could you let me know? I'm... obviously on this eCuddle thing.

[marginalized]

Yeah for sure. No problem man.

[proweird]

👍

What do you like to read?

[marginalized]

👍

Depends on my mood. I wish I could say something cool like "Oh, I love Vonnegut" or something but the truth is, I'm equally as likely to read a chunk out of a text book if the subject is interesting as I am to read some bullshit YA novel I found laying around the store at work when I was cleaning up for closing.

[proweird]

I think it's good you like variety though. I might have to draw the line at the cheesy YA vampire novels though.

[marginalized]

I got like one chapter into Twilight and tossed it with the trash. I think I have to draw the line there, too. What are you into?

[proweird]

In that case, I think we can be friends. Nonfiction history, biographies, historical romance and the occasional contemporary YA.

Augustus Waters ruined me.

[marginalized]

Oh good, because I'd be kinda bummed if I admitted I've read a chapter of Twilight to someone who was never gonna talk to me again.

I really wish I had Google right about now so that I could look at that up and see whether I'm familiar with that reference and just have forgotten the name, but alas...

Is that list in preferential or random order? Also, you got a name?

[proweird]

I can't blame you. It's pretty shameful. [ She's joking. In fact, she's even smiling. Good job, Alex. ]

It's contemporary YA I read a few months ago when it was brand new. It's good, but it'll destroy you if you've got a heart at all. I won't spoil it for you beyond that.

Just random, really. It depends on what mood I'm in or what I'm interested in at the moment as far as preference goes. Sorry. Yeah, I'm Elena Gilbert.

[marginalized]

Sometimes I can't even look at myself in the mirror anymore. It keeps me up at night, really

[ As is Alex, but he likes that she feels comfortable teasing him already. That's always a good sign of someone who'll make a good friend: someone comfortable ribbing you the first time they meet you and who hits the sweet spot so that it doesn't come across as mean or condescending. He likes Elena already. ]

Was that the name of it? Dang, all right, I'll have to look it up. I'm down for being destroyed as long as someone around here is willing to pick up the pieces of my shattered heart and put them back together again. I nominate you, considering you're the one who brought up the book, but I'll take what I can get.

Ah gotcha. Hey, no problem. Nice to meet you, Elena. Welcome to the fucking coolest place in the universe. Like...literally.

[proweird]

We've all done things we're ashamed of acceptance is the key and possibly a lot of alcohol.

[ Yeah, it's surprising and nice. Elena has always been popular, always made friends easily, but this is a pretty difficult time for her right now and she hadn't expected to get along with someone so quickly here. In fact, she'd expected to be pretty much alone, and she'd been okay with that.]

Call me. I'll be there with Kleenex and alcohol. You can provide the pot because I've actually never done that before but...[ it's not like it's going to kill her now nor is it going to wreck her lungs or kill her brain cells or any of those other things that highschool always warns you about. ]

Thank you. I'm quite a bit more hopeful than I was when I first started talking to you.

[marginalized]

Haha all right, you got it. And hey, glad I could help.

[staticworld]

👍

Okay you sound like somebody I need to know right off the bat. You had me at adult store, smoking pot and waxing philosophical... possibly also at hipster scum.

[marginalized]

👍

Oh man, if I got you at hipster scum then we're gonna get along just fine. The pot, my previous job, and the waxing philosophical can be bonus points.

[staticworld]

Okay good. I got here like a day ago and I need to know people not my family. I'd apologize that you're the one that got picked but after reading your profile I'm really not sorry.

My name's Abby.

[marginalized]

Well, you came to the right place. All I know are people who aren't family, so I'm sure I could introduce you to a few cool people who probably don't have your blood running in their veins. Plus, you know, I have weed, so that's also cool.

Nice to meet you, Abby. My profile already says so, but I'm Alex. Have you had time to check out any of the cool shit this place has to offer, yet?

[staticworld]

Oh I don't need introductions to other people. Just you. We're gonna be friends, you and me, like Pinky and the Brain, only one of us is female. Truth is I don't like most people. I'm gonna see how this goes.

I've checked out the resort, so yeah. I'm told there's a whole island to look at though. I guess I'll eventually get to that.

[marginalized]

Oh, no, just saying. If you ended up having a rough go of it. But if you don't dig people in general, then I don't suppose you'll need my help there, anyway haha. What kind of stuff are you into?

There is. I've been checking out what I can, mostly just like...looking and sketching but...you know. I'm gonna stick around, I think, probably indefinitely so I have time.

[staticworld]

Anything that embarrasses my family or pisses off my parents, basically. But I guess mostly I'm into being a vagabond, hipster, photographer. I haven't sold many photos. But I've started to sell some and the day I sold my first one I started calling myself legit. So. Yeah, photography. I like music too, listening to it, all kinds.

Hey, if you say it's cool I'm sure it is. What do you sketch?

[marginalized]

Seems like a pretty good philosophy to me. I'm pretty well-versed in it anyway. Ditching college to try to go to art school and, failing that, working in a porn shop is pretty good fuel for embarrassing the fam, let me tell ya. Photographer, though, that's awesome! This place has a shitload of cool things to shoot, I bet.

People, mostly, but I'm trying to expand my little bubble out to landscape type stuff, too. I'm not as good at that.

[staticworld]

Oh, I'll be getting my fill of photography, I'm sure. There's fodder for it everywhere if you look hard enough. Are you working at a porn shop here too? Or doing the tortured artist thing or...?

There's truth in people... sketching or photographs. It's the live action that gets all muddied.

[marginalized]

I've noticed that, too. I mean like I've been sketching a lot more here than I did at home. Home, I mostly painted, but painting takes a long time, so when there's a lot that grabs me, I tend to switch to pencil and paper. Haha, uh well I'm not doing anything here right now, so much as I'm just...taking up space. Right now I'm doing the whole extended vacation thing. When I become a resident, though, I don't know what I'll do. Probably end up working in another porn shop because I've been doing it for a few years so now it's just kind of a weird comfort zone.

Yeah, tell me about it.

[staticworld]

Hey, we do what's comfortable for us. You can work your porn shop and I'll live out of my car, vagabond style, and go around the island taking pictures I'm never selling. First, I'll need my car. For me. For you, first, you'll need a porn shop.

[marginalized]

Why do I feel like my porn shop will be easier to find than your car? I get the feeling they don't encourage a lot of responsibility around here and cars require responsibility to drive and maintain. Or at least, they require someone willing to pretend to be responsible for those things until the car shits the bed or gets into a crash and then it's "this fucking piece of shit, I can't believe this!" haha

[barelydosober]

👍

You definitely can't get more interesting than adult store in a profile. Color me curious! I'm sure a job like that comes with some great stories?

[marginalized]

👍

Ohhh, the stories I could tell. They're better in person, though. What's your name?

[barelydosober]

I'll sure as hell bet they are.

I'm Wynonna, basically brand spaking new around here and looking for friendly faces to hang out with, hi!

[marginalized]

Hi there, nice to meet you, Wynonna. I am always down for meeting new people and hanging out, so you came to the right eCuddle.

[barelydosober]

Score for not finding a douchenozzle right out of the gate. This place is bringing me nothing but luck so far.

How long you been hanging out in paradise, dude? You a noob like me or old hat already?

[marginalized]

Take what you can get. Life is too short and crazy not to.

Several months, so probably closer to old hat than noob. When'd you show up? You said new, but...

[barelydosober]

That's one way to look at it. Better than my normal outlook by a mile.

A...week, give or take a little? To be fair I wandered around, looked at the bodypainting, saw a flying blue police box, and then caught up on all the sleep I'd been missing out on. So not all of that time was spent awake and aware.

[marginalized]

You know, I get that a lot?

Ah okay, that's fair. What'd you think of the body painting? I had a model in there, so call me curious.
