14:18 Sam:How’s it going?
14:20 Tiel:omfg
14:20 Tiel:my grandmother keeps calling me Elena and has not a fucking clue who I am, and I actually feel pretty terrible about that but she’s the only one who gets a pass
14:21 Tiel:I’m not sure this was ever home at all. My sister acts like I’ve been living on Mars.
14:21 Tiel:she introduced me to her husband as if I hadn’t been at their damn wedding
14:22 Sam:I’m sorry.
14:22 Tiel:They’ve been telling people I’m a kindergarten music teacher . . . apparently that’s more acceptable?
14:22 Tiel:I’d love it if someone could define for me why I’m such a fucking disappointment. They realize I’m not one of Snoop Dogg’s groupies, right?
14:23 Sam:allow me to remind you that you’re the most talented, accomplished person I’ve ever met
14:23 Sam:(and this is coming from the guy who hears how talented and accomplished he is all the damn time)
14:24 Tiel:I just wish I had regular people in my life. Regular, non-ridiculous people who don’t act like my entire existence is too weird for words.
14:24 Tiel:normal family. All I’m asking.
14:25 Sam:You can have mine.
Of course it took her ten minutes to contend with that comment.
14:36 Tiel:hmmmm
14:36 Tiel:not sure they want me either
14:37 Sam:they do and so do I
14:38 Tiel:it’s not too early to start drinking, right? It is a holiday. People are supposed to be drunk on holidays.
14:38 Sam:You need a shoulder massage, a dry martini, and some dirty sex.
14:39 Tiel:well, yeah, of course. I always need that.
14:39 Sam:I can give you all 3. You pick the order.
14:40 Tiel:lol. perv.
14:40 Tiel:At first I thought you were all preppy and gentlemanly, and now I know you’re just a freak.
14:41 Sam:I’m still a gentleman. That doesn’t mean I won’t bend you over and fuck you, and then pour you a drink.
14:41 Tiel:would it be wrong for me to get on a train tomorrow morning, and be drunk and bent over by noon?
14:42 Sam:I’d love that, and I’d be waiting for you at South Station.
14:43 Sam:and I know this isn’t what you want to hear and it’s not in my cock’s best interest, but you should spend time with your family. I am getting you for an uninterrupted week in Scottsdale, after all.
14:43 Tiel:ugghhh. shut up
14:44 Sam:at the very least, you can tell them about me. I’m pretty great.
14:45 Tiel:and what would you like me to tell them, Samuel?
