wouldnt it be great if all these crazy powers we keep getting had instructions with them
like I honestly dont know what my limits are at this point
I wonder if theres anywhere I could go to just like crazy let loose
punch a few trees in half
figure out how much I can actually lift
and maybe how invincible I am but how do you test that without getting yourself fucked up
im Cure Sunny and this is jackass
I dunno man
my life is weird

[Private to Russel]

[alilyinthemoonslight]

How did what go?

[...pause after she sends it.]

private; text 2/2

[alilyinthemoonslight]

Oh. You mean Winter...?

[Ah, it's a good thing this is text as much as she just fumbled with her phone.]

[sun_sun]

no I meant the olympics
of course I meant Winter how did it go

[alilyinthemoonslight]

You could have meant the Winter Olympics. ...

[...no, no. Never let Lily even attempt to make jokes. They make no sense, and then...]

Okay no, sorry. That was terrible.

[You can't avoid that with acting stupid, Lily. Sigh.]

I'm surprised if it's not all over the school by this point, Annie.

[But lets try to dodge a little more, shall we?]

[sun_sun]

how

did

it

go

[alilyinthemoonslight]

[DAMMIT.]

...well.

It went... it went very well, actually. All things considered.

[After all, it was the end result that mattered, right?]

[sun_sun]

so like are you guys girlfriends now

[alilyinthemoonslight]

[Another fumble. Nearly drops phone this time. She hadn't really... talked about it in terms like that outside Jasmine, but... Like she said, everyone had seen it. It was hardly a secret, and she was proud of it, and of who had chosen to admit those feelings to.]

I'm not really used to saying that, but... Yes, I... guess that's what it would make us, isn't it?

[That wasn't so hard to type, was it? She asks herself as she decides to literally walk outside into the cold just she can chill her burning face off.]

[sun_sun]

crazy shit
like a month ago I was p sure everyone I knew was straight
then suddenly HALF MY FRIENDS

[alilyinthemoonslight]

In fairness, it's not really something that had any reason to come up before then.

[Besides when Skyler pulled his... thing, but that was neither here nor there.]

That's... not a problem, is it?

[sun_sun]

nah its all good
just kinda surprising is all

[alilyinthemoonslight]

Okay, sorry. It's not ever really something I've HIDDEN that much, either. I guess there's also the fact I haven't tried dating in... awhile. It never used to end well.

[sun_sun]

well it sounds like its workin out for you better than being straight is workin out for me

[alilyinthemoonslight]

Well, it is NOW. Only because it's Winter. She's one of the most wonderful people I've ever met, not to mention tolerant, if she's willing to put up with me making such an idiot of myself.
I'm sure you just need to meet the right person, Annie.

[sun_sun]

ha ha ha
ha.........

[alilyinthemoonslight]

What's so funny...?

[sun_sun]

dont tell anyone about this but like
I think maybe Russel likes me???

[alilyinthemoonslight]

...
How cute!

[Yes, when it's not her own emotional turmoil, she has a very different reaction to this sort of situation.]

[sun_sun]

omg it was the opposite of cute I was freaking out
he gave me a mix tape
then he took it back
then he started bleeding and gave it back and ran away
im still confused

[alilyinthemoonslight]

He started WHAT?
...no, wait. I at least know he's fine, but...
Okay, lets ignore all that. I can't criticize someone for freaking out or acting weird in this sort of thing.
How do YOU feel?

1/3

[sun_sun]

I dunno like
I don't really

2/3

[sun_sun]

its not just
im not
I dont

3/3

[sun_sun]

oh fuck
I like him
I actually do

[alilyinthemoonslight]

[Good job, Annie, killing Lily's embarrassment by summoning your own.]

That's not a bad thing, you realize. Russel seems like a very good person.

[sun_sun]

but I was giving you crap for crushing on a team mate
and now look at me
bluuuuuhhh
