TFLN Continuation

[arrowtotheheal]

I think so? I have to double-check, but last I heard she was probably going to be in Nashville around Christmas and NYC for New Year's. She'd love to have you spend the holiday with us, though!

Listen, that's because you got smacked and they wanted to kill my Dad. I wasn't going to take that lying down. Confronting family's worse by far, though mom did give me the green light to yell if I needed to

I'll take the compliment when you take my compliments

Good guess, but it's Style. At least she's not butchering Hey Stephen or else I'd have to actually dissolve my friendship with her

Continued.

i wasn't

i mean i know she has to be awesome but

it's time with your family. there are lots of things to do in nashville

i know what conservative means, will. you can smack them down for me too

guess nobody gets complimented ever again

but that's one of the only songs i like so. if it's not that.... why am i rescuing you

[arrowtotheheal]

Yeah, but it'd be a lot nicer if I got to see Nashville with my two favorite people in the world

I'll legitimately throw hands if they drag you into any argument

Too bad, I'll keep complimenting you

[By way of response, Will sends Nico a short video of Lou Ellen singing Style off-key and off-beat. She's grinning like she knows exactly what she's doing, and even winks cheekily at the camera.]

[demigoth]

your mom and lou-ellen? maybe they can sing a duet

... it might be worth going to see you throw hands. how can i make them not like me?

[arrowtotheheal]

That sounds like it'd go as well as your Dad and my Dad singing a duet

That's easy, just say you're gay and dating me
If you don't want to go quite that far, speak in Italian and I guarantee they'll say something oh so classy
I think Lou Ellen described them as the real life version of conservative American memes

[demigoth]

ugh no

please don’t think it’s because i don’t like dating you but i don’t want people to say things about us

what’s wrong with italian

LMAO I DID THE THING... I knew I'd use the other Will account on accident one day

[arrowtotheheal]

Nah, that's fair, I wouldn't tell them, either, and I'm as open as a book

Oh, nothing at all in reality. I mean, I'm biased and I always love when you speak Italian to me

They're more like something something go back to Mexico types. I'd actually be pleasantly surprised if they got your nationality correct, but the bar is so low it's in the Underworld

It happens

[demigoth]

books are usually closed

but i usually only speak italian when i’m mad

[ Or sad. Emotional in general. ]

but my name is NICO DI ANGELO. it couldn’t be more italian if I spelled it with spaghetti with pasticciotti for the Os

i like mexico but this is silly. lots of americans have roots in italy and mexico

[arrowtotheheal]

Have I told you lately that you're the cutest?

True, but it's still music to my ears in the best way possible. You could read the damn phone book in Italian and I'd sit there and listen to all of it

Okay, no lie, that made me ugly laugh and I haven't done that in YEARS!

But you're right and it's completely dumb. Granted, they don't approve of mom being a single mom and not marrying Dad, but y'know. Old fashioned

[demigoth]

no but i haven't told you were crazy in just as long

also i don't believe you. you can't ugly laugh

they're more old-fashion than ME will. and i'm old.

[arrowtotheheal]

Yeah, I'm crazy. Crazy about you

Neither can you, Death Boy, you have the best laugh out of the both of us

You're old but you're willing to learn and they aren't. I can't wait to be 18 so I can just say nty at every invite

[demigoth]

i do not

you can say that now. why do you have to deal with them at all? it's not like they can smite you

[arrowtotheheal]

It's somewhat of a cultural thing. We take blood family way too seriously down South. And I also don't want to make it more miserable than it already is, especially for my mom. She'd get most of the heat and criticism because she raised me or sent me off to what they think is boarding school

[demigoth]

i understand but you know that makes it worse

they take family way too seriously and make things miserable for your mom. and you

[arrowtotheheal]

It's both easier and harder to deal with when I've got you, mom, Cabin Seven, and my friends as a great support network

Easier because you guys have my back 100% no matter what they do or say, but harder because everyone here is more family than my extended family

[demigoth]

absolutely ALWAYS have your back. i could rally the entire camp for you.

it'd be a shame if they started seeing things and got a nasty case of agoraphobia and never came to another family dinner

[arrowtotheheal]

See, this is why you're a sweetheart, Death Boy

Hah! If mom asks, I'll deny that I know anything about this plan

[demigoth]

or it's why you're an idiot

☠🖤☀

[arrowtotheheal]

I've made my peace with being a fool in love
