[Handwritten] The Devil Came Down To Locke... [Backdated to this morning]

[originaloddcouple]

So... I think Isaac's hiding things from me.

I mean, I'm hiding things too. So I'm kinda being a hypocrite. I guess.

But...

...I just want everything to be normal again! I mean, I still want you guys to be here and hang out and do friend things but I don't want to be in danger! Or Isaac in danger! Or any of you in danger, or lying, or theft, or death, or any of this crazy world threat st

Hold on I have to get the phone.

[There's isn't anything on the network for five hours. Then suddenly:]

MOTHER'S ON HER WAY. HERE. FOR HOLIDAYS.

STAYING HERE FOR A WHILE. EVERYTHING HAS TO BE CLEAN. FOOD HAS TO BE NICE. SHOP NEEDS TO BE LESS OF A DISAPPOINTMENT.

[Before the quick notes finish, more handwriting shows up.]



MIRIA'S MOTHER IS COMING. WITH HER JUDGMENTAL EYES.

ISAAC WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE CLEANING THE BATHROOMS

I'M WAITING IN LINE AT THE GROCERY STORE WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH CLEANING SOLUTIONS WHAT ABOUT YOU WHAT ARE YOU NOT DOING

GOING THROUGH PLANS IF WE NEED TO LEAVE FOR ALIEN REASONS

GOOD IDEA WHAT DO YOU HAVE

LEAVE BEHIND A BODY DOUBLE. ESCAPE WITH RUBE GOLDBERG DEVICE IN SHOP.

DID YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT THAT THING DID THEN?

NOPE

SHE'S GOING TO CATCH AND FRY US.

[Then there's a bunch of meaningless scribbly lines written in a panic. It's all followed by:]

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE JUDGED, MAYBE AVOID SOMETHING OLD ANTIQUES FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

[NOOOOOOOO MIRIA WHAT ARE YOU SAYING]

[he has like zero personal investment in this but it is just really upsetting to think about people who obviously love each other breaking up like this!!!]

And maybe you weren't! Maybe you're just going through a rough spot and it's making you more negative than you would be usually!

You guys have worked well so far, haven't you? What has the network stuff really changed since then?

...Well, there's the whole "threat to our lives because of an alien invasion and sudden memories of a past you" thing.

[Handwritten, pre-flipout]

[pianistofraielin]

Yeah but besides that!

[Handwritten, pre-flipout]

[originaloddcouple]

...Well, now we also have lots of friends.

[Handwritten, pre-flipout]

[pianistofraielin]

See? Things aren't so bad!

[russel that is totally not related to the point she was making at all]

[originaloddcouple]

[too late, she's caught up in it.]

...Yeah! I guess you're right!

[MISSION ACCOMPLISHED]

[sort of]

[distracting someone from their problems doesn't really count as saving a marriage but details]

And I'm one of those friends (I hope!) so you know you can trust me when I say everything's going to turn out okay!

[Handwritten, pre-flipout]

[originaloddcouple]

I AM your friend! And I bet everything will turn out hunky-dory!

[Handwritten, pre-flipout]

[pianistofraielin]

That's the spirit!!

Positive thinking from now on!

[Handwritten, pre-flipout]

[originaloddcouple]

You're completely right!

Positive thinking!
