misfire; @josie.s. christening the inbox.

[alwaysthecaretaker]

[ the message is two photos. one of josie in this and one of her in this. ]

[overarches]

i’d be flattered if those were meant for me but you’ve got the wrong user id

sorry, deleting them now

[alwaysthecaretaker]

Dammit. Your ID isn't anywhere close to the one I put in. These things have been going all over the place lately.

Guess it would be awkward to ask your honest opinion of them.

[overarches]

i'm starting to get that impression. and hey, i was trying to spare you from some rando commenting on your underwear.

i like the green one. unless it's for a birthday or something
and you want someone to unwrap you

[alwaysthecaretaker]

Well, I'm Josie. What's your name?
Then you won't be a rando anymore.

I like the green one too. I mean, I like the black one. But it does have to particular look to it, like you said.

[overarches]

archie. do you get hacked on a regular basis here?

honestly, you can rock either one. i just feel like the second one is something you would pick and wear as opposed to trying to impress someone. but i don't know anything about you.

[alwaysthecaretaker]

Hi, Archie. :) I think this is the second time I've gotten hacked? Probably the same person or group or whatever that did it last time.

You miiiight have me pegged for wanting to impress people. But thank you for your input. Sometimes it feels hard to judge these things by myself.

[overarches]

hey josie. (: does that make it less awkward?

i don't think you need to try very hard. ( is that creepy? ) although maybe that's a thing here. lingerie competitions.

[alwaysthecaretaker]

It being the same... whatever? I don't know. Maybe? At least that way it's not multiple people or entities in my phone.

Thank you. [ she doesn't find it creepy at all. ] If it's a thing, it's not frequent. I mean, I haven't seen any in all of the time that I've been here.

[overarches]

so can i ask who it is you're trying to sweep off their feet?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

Would it be weird if I said I was just... being prepared?

[overarches]

for the city?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

For a date! Or a new friend? Because I don't actually have a date lined up.

[overarches]

i can help you with the friend thing?

i feel like planning dates here is like asking for chaos

[alwaysthecaretaker]

You can? I'd like that.

It's... hit or miss, yeah.

[overarches]

one of my best friends showed me a diner here that almost has milkshakes as good as home.

would you wanna grab one with me sometime?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

I'd love to! I love a good milkshake.

Oh! How do you feel about coffee milkshakes?

[overarches]

honestly? i've never tried one. do you know where to get the best one?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

Well... yeah. :D I own a coffee shop and make the BEST coffee milkshake.

[overarches]

what's the name of your coffee shop?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

Les Beans. It used to be called Halcyon when I worked there. BEFORE becoming the owner.

[overarches]

and you named it that because why? you're into women?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

I think you're one of the first few to get the joke. Or pun. It just plays into how some things are named here.

But I'm not just into women. Obviously.

[overarches]

obviously.

( because what, she's into him? )

why do you care how things are named here?

[alwaysthecaretaker]

I don't really? I guess I just thought it was funny.
