but we're talking already, aren't we? that's company. were friends.

but im fine, really.

So what did you do today?

[gluttoning]

i know. I thought it was important you know too

i had a football game. my team won.

[tylorific]

oh. is it?
if that's the case, then im also here. if you need companyt.

i like talking to you. and its not just becaus,not everyone can see how beautiful he is.


thats good news! congratulations ＼_(^◇^)_／＼(*^^*)／

[gluttoning]

thanks.

you do call him and hani beautiful a lot. i just dont really know anything about you.

all youve ever really told me is your name.

[tylorific]

wwhaha. because they are. dont you think so?


but yeah, i guess you're right. if you want to know anything, you could just ask

[gluttoning]

i don't know. but i dont think i see them the same way you do. i dont think i can love people like that.

i don't really know what to ask. you don't really seem to think you're anything special, if I remember right.

i want to know why you think that

[tylorific]

everyone is different, no one has to love anyone else in any certain way.

because im just like everyone else.


[ There's a longer pause this time. And maybe it's obvious that there was a point in time where that's all he would've said. ]

isn't it better, ,to have expectations you can actually meet?

[gluttoning]

expectations?

from who?

[tylorific]

anyone. yourself.
i dont exepct myself to be anyone but me.



so i dont think my life is more important than anyone elsess.

[gluttoning]

why does that matter

[tylorific]

That's why, I don't think im anything special

just me

[gluttoning]

even though people around you think differently?

[tylorific]

welll, people can think whatever they like.

does what other people think matte ralot to you?

[gluttoning]

sometimes

if someone cares about me I want to know if they're upset about something

and if they tell me something good I don't want to ignore their feelings by telling them they're wrong

rapid fire texts

[tylorific]

it doesnt upset you too?

do you think theyre wrong a lot?

[gluttoning]

it happens sometimes. for both

but its why i need to listen


we're supposed to be talking about you though. not me

[tylorific]

oh yeah

sorry, i guess i just like hearing people talk about themselves

2/2

[tylorific]

or reading. i guess

i'm sorry

people asking that is new, isn't it funny no ones asked me before them? and you? ha ha ww

[gluttoning]

[...]

which part

[tylorific]

oh. i don't know. both? all of it?

people usually agree with me when i say i'm no better than anyone else. they dont that many questions.
so i've never thought about it this hard before.

i dont mind it right now.

[gluttoning]

i dont think i would have asked when we first met

when you dont have anything good to say about yourself even after while though it can make the people around you frustrated and sad

i dont think its because we get mad

it just feels bad to take a lot of praise from someone and never be allowed to give it

[tylorific]

oh i see.

well i dont want to make anyone sad, but how do you find good things to say about yourself?

[gluttoning]

[yeah he figured]

its really hard sometimes right

are there good things people have told you that made you feel happy?

[tylorific]

i dont feel bad about myself though. i just never really think about it.

made me happy? well i dont think im actually pretty, so that doesnt count.

[ The next parts come piecemeal but in quick succession ]

but i guess

that im honest with everybody. affectionate. that it's okay if i dont fit everyones comfort levels, but its still good that i've got a lot to give.

that im optimistic, charming, and want people to have a good time.

[gluttoning]

[It's not something he recognizes that he himself has said. He's too tired. Too torn apart.

But he feels if he can maybe help Tylor see this in some other way, maybe it might make sense.]

do you believe any of that is true

if someone told you that it means they thought you were special enough in their eyes to say something

saying theyre wrong and saying that the happiness you feel when they say that is wrong can make people feel rejected
