gotcha
say no more
I won't ask any questions

[She really wants to ask questions.]

back to nicer things?

[callbacks]

yes im all about nice things always
what about comics do you like comics

[hashtagafreakingghost]

nnnnnot as much as some of my friends??
I like Neil Gaiman's The Sandman does that count??

[callbacks]

oh ive heard of that one
the premise always sounded more roses thing than mine so i never picked it up
that and webcomics were more my scene
anyway its all like magic and elder gods and occult shit right

[hashtagafreakingghost]

I haven't read a lot of webcomics
not consistently anyway mostly just little vignettes
but yes it is though
beings called the endless who are the personification of things like dreams and death and desire
I should not have read it as young as I did because it is very fucked up :)

[callbacks]

sexually fucked up or violently fucked up
or psychologically fucked up
theres a lot of different kinds of fucked up you know

also how old were you

[hashtagafreakingghost]

all of the above?
all of the above

I thiiink I was eleven??
you know when you recognize an author and just think yeah this won't be scarring
and then it's kind of entirely scarring??
ehhhh
it got less disturbing as it went on

[callbacks]

oh elevens not that bad
thats BASICALLY middle school
everyone starts learning that stuff by then

i didnt even realize this was a thing when she started talking about it.....

[hashtagafreakingghost]

it wasn't THAT bad but it still wasn't fun!
there's like
a freaky diner where reality's distorted and people's minds are all fucked with and

[


cannibalism
why]

you know
uncomfortable things to see

G O D

[callbacks]

well i guess that could be kind of creepy for kids

[Maybe? He has literally no frame of reference.]

but you still kept reading it didnt you

[hashtagafreakingghost]

[He guesses? ...Hm. :|a]

I mean
I couldn't just STOP

[callbacks]

hahaha
because it was that good or because its a point of pride

[hashtagafreakingghost]

more like
you know that saying about not looking away from a trainwreck?
except not that it was bad writing-wise just that that's kind of what it felt like an actual trainwreck with all the carnage
that kind of thing

[callbacks]

oh yeah
fuck theres a word for that what was it
the human fascination with death
thanatopsis or something
what youre describing doesnt have to do necessarily with death i guess but that pull probably goes along with general disaster too

1/2

[hashtagafreakingghost]

I didn't know there was an actual word for it
oh I don't know I don't usually get all interested in those sorts of things
at least
not really??
not any

2/2

[hashtagafreakingghost]

[shit. fuck. how does she retract that last bit. just play it cool?? she meant to delete that.]

I mean
off topic
you mentioned webcomics tell me about some of them

[callbacks]

[And he moves smoothly along, because if anyone understands a desperate topic change, it's Dave.]

well i used to make one
it was called sweet bro and hella jeff and looking back on it
i dunno it was pretty dumb
but on the other hand i was thirteen
and being dumb was the point of it i mean the whole thing was an ironic exercise in horrendous shittiness so it served its purpose
it was my first experiment in moving away from my bros style and i guess it was successful there too
besides it provided my friend group with a lifetimes supply of high quality memetic material so i cant completely trash it in conversation

[hashtagafreakingghost]

[Thaaank goodness. Much better.]

oh that's really cute!
things that produce silly memes and inside jokes are always a hot commodity among friends
also I'm of the opinion that even if it's really bad an early creation is important in your development as an artist
so you do you

[callbacks]

cute is one word for it

[Ha ha ha...]

what about you did you share fanfic or anything with your crew

[hashtagafreakingghost]

oh my god nooooo
NEVER
they would never ever E V E R stop making fun of me!!!!

[callbacks]

hahahaha omg
ashley
ashley ashley ok
what kind of fanfiction did you write

1/2

[hashtagafreakingghost]

why do you think it's because of what i write
it could just be because my friends are assholes
did you consider that??
because they are assholes
it has nothing at all to do with what kind of fic i write
or wrote
or anything
nothing at all i am frankly insulted that you would insinuate that at all

2/2

[hashtagafreakingghost]

the kind you'd be ashamed to show your parents or teachers

[callbacks]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

oh my GOD
DAVE
