[Nope. No blowing it. He seems really nice, and she’s waiting nervously for his response; this is the first time she’s used cuddlr. The first time she’s asked someone out, here. Nervous is probably putting it mildly. Then she gets the text, gets his response (he accepted!) and she grins, surprised and delighted. It’s a good thing this is text, because she’s got the giddiest little grin on her face.]

Good. I... good.

I’m glad.

[And she is! She sort of flails awkwardly for a moment before sending her next text. What comes next?]

So. Should we find out what night time in Eudio has to offer? There are some beautiful parks. We could... go for a walk? Then see where the night takes us?

Or, I’m sure there are some... clubs. Bars and things. If you’re into that sort of thing?

[She’s really just been to the one since her arrival; met the man wearing the face of her dad. Well, a version of her dad from another Earth. So it had been a WEIRD TIME and she really hadn’t noticed much about the bar itself.]

I am SO glad the suckiness of nickelback is a universal constant. no matter what reality, they blow. and wow, such violence. [ Like you have room to talk, Dawn. ] I mean I bite and pull hair, but let's leave the weapons alone.

I have a feeling your schedule is gonna fill up fast. not with STUFF but stuff 2.0 the better version.

even then, still questionable.

✓

so are you more casper the friendly, or turn all the furniture upside down and knock over someone's favorite vase?

give jace the wrong impression what are you

[ oh. right. the network broadcast from earlier. ]

he thinks you two are still an item. he called you the g word clary. [ YIKES. ] you're going to set him straight about that, right? i mean, i'm sure you already have.

and i would't take it personally. alec is always frowning. one day his face is going to get stuck that way. permanent frown. except nobody is going to notice the difference.

ghost shenanigans? please don't tell me that you've suddenly decided your eudio dream is to become a ghost buster.

and i'm telling her, it's going to be the first thing i do when we get home. i'm even going to make a note of it so i don't forget.

that's what you get for saying i have a crush on the cage. that's sacrilege. and liam hemsworth, really??? i give him an 'eh' out of 10.

yeah!

yeah. the exclamation mark was a bit much. though don't get me wrong i am excited to see it, me and isabelle, isabelle and me. isabelle and i.

and of course your work.

you guys should hang out. talk turpentine. she's an artist too.

god it sounds like i'm setting you guys up on a playdate.

You saw that... He called me the g-word. He came to a city based around physical intimacy and wanted me to know he put me first. Tell me I'm not crazy for thinking that's really sweet even though he's my brother....

I know it's really messed up. He's my brother. I just. It's all so messed up.

Maybe it's already happened with Alec and we just haven't noticed!!!

I met a ghost. He gave me a check on here. We can meet an actual ghost Simon!!! This is so cool. I hope he's a nice ghost and not a grudge ghost.

:((((( Then I won't hold your hand or introduce you to my ghost friend!!! Good luck keeping track of that note.

You're not denying the crush Simon :P an eh out of 10???? He is a 10 out of 10 and you know it!!

like casper usually, except older and less like bedsheet looking. i knocked over my friend's mint plant once, but that was a bad day.

yeah. i did. it was hard not to, i mean it felt like an invasion of privacy but.

[ it was right there. ]

you're not crazy, or messed up, or anything like that. [ clary is, and always will be perfect to him. ] well, maybe a little bit crazy, no one in their right mind would call jace sweet.

he's as prickly as they come.

he gave you a check?

[ ... play it cool simon, play it cool. ] that's great. are you guys going to go on a date or something?

if he turns out to be a grudge ghost, just text me and i'll show up with a butter knife and my gorgeous face. i'm just a phone call away, you know that right?

No I get it. I probably would have snooped if it had been you too. You're just worried. Thanks for being a good friend Simon :)

He's sweet to me. I wish I could just stop thinking about this. I haven't told him yet. I told him I'd tell him soon. But what if he goes all scary DARKSIDE Jace again??

Yeah he gave me a check. His name is Noah.

I really doubt the date thing though I got more of a friend vibe from him. So I don't think you will have to play knight in shining cutlery to save me from a bad date or any grudgey ghosting.

The same goes for you though. No matter what. I'm always here for you. 24/7.

i’m pretty sure that nickelback is synonymous with perfect-torture-method. one song is enough for anyone to break, and do whatever you want.

and remind me to never make you angry.

you sure about that? right now my schedule is looking pretty bleak. stuff 2.0 so far is an endless binge of candy crush. which is not bad, but not great either.

a walk actually sounds good. i’m sure we can find an ice cream stand somewhere too?

[ which of course he can’t eat thanks to good ol’ vamprism. but it’ll be easy to accidently drop, or if worst comes to worst he could eat it— he’d just have to resign himself to clinging to the porcelain throne later when it inevitably comes back up.

still, he thinks, it would be worth it. to go on a date like he’s a normal teenager, not one who’s dug themselves up from their own grave and has a fridge shoved full of blood bags. ]

unless you want to go clubbing? i can do clubbing. in theory, of course. i’ve never actually been, but. how hard could it be?

[ lots of jumping, fist pumping??? ]

the geneva convention doesn't allow for the use of nickelback. too cruel.

don't worry, that's mostly directed at my sister.

aw, okay, no, i can't leave you to the mercy of that app. it is a terrible and cruel mistress. aside from rocking out with an interesting band name, what do you like to do?

regarding said snooping, you also said that you came here to help me? what did you mean by that, exactly? of course there's the obvious.

[ re-starting his unbeating heart, de-vamping. he does want that, he wants to be able to go out, not just pace around his apartment until dusk. to be able to be close to people without wondering what their blood would taste like, if it would be better than the synthetic stuff he's been supplied with.

but. that would also mean a one-way ticket out of clary's world.

and all he's ever wanted, since he can remember, is to be by her side.

like jace will always be, given that he's her brother. it's weird still being jealous of him, even when he knows that jace and clary can't be together together. ]

of course he's sweet to you, who could look at you and actually be mean?

i don't know clary, this time may be different. there's no portal for him to go through here, or valentine. maybe it'll get through his remarkably thick skull that he's not evil, just the product of it? that sounded bad. the point is

the point is that he has all of you guys. you know, alec and isabelle and you. he'll come around.

24/7 huh? my personal clary-i-need-you crisis hotline.

you better not regret it when i take you up on that.
