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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
