The next day . . .
Read at 2:39 PM
Tyler: Can we skip the entire conversation about what the fuck happened and go right into how I feel like falling to pieces in this bowling alley?
Boris: I'm so sorry, Tyler. I didn't send that message above.
Tyler: BORIS
Tyler: What do you mean?
Boris: King must have sent it when we had my Guard Mobile. He just gave it back to me yesterday. Surprised to find he didn't have an entire conversation with you.
Tyler: DID YOU SAY KING? ARE YUI FUKCING SERIOS?
Tyler: YOU*
Tyler: FUCKING*
Tyler: SERIOUS*
Boris: Yes. After what happened with Leah, I was able to jump into the mirror in the Hold's bathroom. I ended up in King's underground base.
Tyler: You've gotta be kidding. That's gotta be a bad coincidecne
Tyler: Coincidence*
Tyler: You went to King of all animals?
Boris: It makes sense, actually. He's possessed by Absalom, too. I was probably able to jump here because we're connected.
Tyler: But why would he give you your phone back? Seems sus
Boris: I agree that it is.
Boris: But I don't care. I'm just happy to finally be talking to you again.
Tyler: You have no idea how much my tail wagged when I saw that you messaged. Feel like a feral dog that just waits at the door for his master, lately
Boris: Master?
Tyler: I MEAN
Tyler: YOU GET WHAT I MENA
Tyler: MEAN*
Boris: You can go back to typing in your usual style, Tyler.
Tyler: o thank gods
Tyler: i just keep thinking about u and what u might b doing or if ur safe
Boris: You don't need to worry. I'm sort of alright.
Tyler: sort of?
Boris: I guess I should say I've been insanely depressed lately. After I killed Leah and got here, I just feel like my throat is being squeezed all the time. My body feels heavy and I don't feel like doing anything. I feel really angry about Absalom coming back, too.
Tyler: i should have gone with u to the hold
Tyler: i knew u were going so i should have been smarter
Boris: Then you might have been killed too. That's the last thing I want.
Tyler: do u still think im a target after what happened?
Boris: There's no telling.
Tyler: i wish these things had muzzletime
Tyler: i wanna see u so bad
