I've been on that side, remember? Their limits are a lot more than I had to deal with, but the whole not being able to talk directly about things isn't nerves.
I'm not arguing. [ he says, arms crossed, looking a little like he thinks throwing a book at jason might help, but he shakes his head ] I'm saying they have to talk around everything, and so do you. You think I'm so sure about the journal on the hunch that it sounds off? I told you guys I talked with them about it.
[ this is stupid, he argues with people constantly. he shakes his head and decides to just move past it!! no apologies!!! from either side!! this is healthy ]
I'll give you the third note when Tsurumaru brings it to me, but like I said, it's about Aquarius binge drinking. So. I think it matches... everything else.
[ aka it's weird garbage ]
A lot of these have similar handwriting, but I don't know how much it matters to know exactly who wrote about going on a bender and who was responsible for that stupid hangman if none of them are ... actually present.
...Do you think-- [He pauses for a moment, brows together.] ...The other side. Ivan was on the side with the living, and The Judge was on the side with us when we were dead.
Do you think the others might be over there? Not that... it matters to us exactly right now when we're here.
My thing is... how do we test whether any information we get is right? Like how are we supposed to know when everything is either--I don't know, before.
Finding out this isn't the boss's first rodeo doesn't surprise me, but whatever. Now what do we do about it?
[He raises both arms up and loops them around Cloud's shoulders. He tucks his face into Cloud's neck. Hug... Very not like him, but hey. Sometimes, a week happens.]
[ he doesn't expect the hug and stands there like an idiot for a second before he wraps his arms back around Jason's tiny waist, a little hesitant, before he leans his head against his. he's still bad at hugs. im sorry. ]
[Cloud is so funny. Don't pretend. He's grinning when he picks his head back up to glance at Cloud.] Harsh. [The grin fades a bit. He plops his forehead against Cloud's. Soft! But then he picks it up and draws away so he isn't smothering Cloud in his meat.]

[He holds up both hands.]
I don’t want to argue about something neither of us can control. I’ll see if they’ll talk to me. Maybe they can give vague answers.
no subject
[ :T ]
no subject
I know that. You really think I'm just asking them questions outright all the time? Give me a little credit here, Cloud.
[THEY JUST SMOOCHED LIKE GAYS AND NOW THEY'RE ARGUING ABOUT PLOT]
I'm going to talk to them, alright?
no subject
... I never said you couldn't.
no subject
...It's fine.
[He is kind of looking down and away like it's obvious they were sort of arguing and now he's feeling bad about it.]

[ with a frustrated sigh ]
Try to figure out what happened and how to stop it from happening to us?
no subject
Yeah. Great.
no subject

[ maybe. slowly. ]
no subject
I know.
no subject

no subject
Yeah. I’m just… tired, I guess. Not that I have much of a choice.
no subject

... I'm down to lie down for a few days with you when we make it out.
[ he means to sleep. ]
no subject
Cloud, why did you say it this way? He unfortunately snorts against Cloud’s neck.]
Oh yeah? We using our mouths, or just doing everything since it’s going to be a few days?
no subject
Never mind, I'm ditching you here. [ jason!!! but also, fuck it: ] You can suck your own dick.
