No. Not anymore. It uh...it felt like I was overloading on everything going on. All the stress from that, from trying to keep up appearances because my mom was a congresswoman. Who, by the way? Signed the bill that put the DUP into action a few months before this.

[ That's probably the very definition of Irony. Or Bullshit. ]

It was just the one headache.

Stress made you do it?

What happened to your mom?

Stress activated the conduit abilities I didn't know I had. And mom...I don't know. I haven't spoken to her since. I haven't really...wanted to.

[There's a pause, because what she asks next is an awkward question.]

Do you think she'd have signed that bill if she'd known you were a Conduit?

That...I don't know.

I'm not mad at her for signing it originally. She had no way of knowing what I was going to become.

I'm mad at how quickly she handed me over. I don't know if she was doing it to save face or what. I'm hoping not.

[Jane doesn't quite know how to respond to that. His own mother handed him over?]

I'm...sorry, Eugene. I didn't know.

Okay. So....this? Got kinda depressing. And I'd like to do something happy for a while. Where are you? I'd like to do something with you.

I'm in my room. Is the next question going to be "what are you wearing"?

[ And Eugene chuckles some. He's smiling. It's evident in his tone. ]

Not this time. It's more do you mind if I come over?

Edited 2015-02-16 16:37 (UTC)

I don't mind if you don't mind.

Not to sound completely sappy or whatever, but I will never have a problem with spending time with you.

...That was totally sappy. Don't stop.

Just warn me if I overdo it, okay?

Oh, absolutely.

What were we talking about?

Me being overly sappy.

Well, yes. You're overly sappy, but you're my sap.

Before that, though.

Me coming over. I'm literally going to fly to your yurt. Because.

Because Red Bull gives you wings, or because you're trying to impress me?

[ Eugene says nothing. Just kind of points the TC to see over his shoulder, sort of like a selfie is about to go really wrong and all Jane sees is his right eye. Which, btw, sorta glows blue for a moment and a pair of pixelated hardlight wings appear behind Eugene. ]

I meant literally fly.

[ A tentative smirk. Is this okay? ]
