TheaterGeek has added the Squip Squad to chat 'We're back!'

TheaterGeek: we're back guys!

TheaterGeek: and check it out

TheaterGeek: https://www.youtube.com/eVfhsGHI_GiowNall/hsia

TheaterGeek: I made a compilation of the videos from our trip!

Trees: oh wow, th-that was, uh, really fast

Boyf: you took out anything that'd make the government suspicious of Squip, right?

Reinds: ...maybe we should call him by Sam on the chat now to be on the safe side

Boyf: right…

Boyf has deleted 1 message

Valentine: sooo...how was it?

Trees: it was really good

InsanelyCool: honestly, it was a good musical. It has some great potential for Tony's

Reinds: it was cute, I enjoyed the little references they threw in

Boyf: yeah, I had a good time

JakeyD: that's good. I'm glad you all enjoyed yourselves

NotLohst: did Sam have a good time too?

TheaterGeek: I think he did

TheaterGeek: Jeremy? Where is he?

Boyf: I-I don't know. I haven't seen him all day and he's been silent.

Reinds: oh no. Do you think he's ok?

Boyf: I honestly don't know. I've tried talking to him, but he's not responding…

BiArsonist: that's kinda strange

BiArsonist: did anything happen during the weekend

Boyf: …

Reinds: …

NotLohst: wait...so, did something happen?

Reinds: ...he may have accidentally drank some Mtn Dew Red

JakeyD: what do you mean accidentally?

Boyf: there were traces of said drink in his soda and he may have had an allergic reaction to it and threw up

BiArsonist: but he should be fine since it's outta his system...right?

Reinds: …

Reinds: that's not all…

JakeyD: Michael, I swear, if you hurt this innocent bean

Reinds: I think I may have hurt his feelings when I didn't reciprocate his love

NotLohst: what?

Reinds: he told me that he loved me and I didn't say it back...I wasn't ready to

Valentine: aww

Reinds: he said he would be fine…

InsanelyCool: I think he was just saying that because he didn't want you to feel bad

TheaterGeek: so that's why he was so pouty the next morning

Boyf: yeah, but we talked it out at breakfast

Reinds: ...he should've told me

Boyf: it's alright, I cheered him up

Trees: so why isn't he, um, saying anything?

GhostieDude: maybe he just wants to be left alone

GhostieDude: give the guy some privacy

BiArsonist: ...maybe he's right

Boyf: it's just...so not like him to disappear

Reinds: he has changed in multiple ways...maybe he's still changing…

TheaterGeek: I think we should give him some space

Valentine: I agree

Boyf: I just hope everything's ok…

~one week later~

Neo has added the Squip Squad to chat 'I'm back'

Neo: ...hey, guys

Boyf: SAM!

Reinds: whew, we were getting worried

TheaterGeek: r u ok?

Neo: yeah...I'm fine

BiArsonist: so, what happened? Why'd you leave for so long?

Neo: I don't know...I think I may have frozen up or glitched out because of the MDR, but I assure you all that I am alright.

JakeyD: well, that's a relief

Boyf: I missed you.

Boyf: it was weird not having another voice here in my head…

Neo: I missed you too

Neo: it felt like when you deactivated me, but instead of the pain, I was just stuck in this void that was much too quiet for my liking.

Neo: oh, and *heere

Reinds: I definitely didn't miss that…

Neo: >:P

Reinds: hey, so we're cool, right?

Neo: yes, yes we are, Michael.

Boyf: mm...are you sure you're ok? You seem...different

Neo: Jeremy, I assure you that I am fine.

Boyf: ……...ok, if you say so
