['sup quarantine, today y'all get +1 very bored teen speedster sighing and rolling his eyes in a highly dramatic fashion, phone balanced on his knee to film as he's lounging on the couch in his apartment.]

Please tell me I'm not the only one here who feels like puking over this holiday thing. It's like Valentine's Day on steroids! Ugh! [he shudders to highlight his disgust.] I mean, why do we need a whole big thing for romaaaantic loooove anyway? And soulmates? Psh! I mean, if that's your thing, go for it, but those of us who're a little more sane oughta stick together, right? Maybe have our own anti-holiday or something. Who's with me?

We get it. You're single.

[Someone's in a real bad mood, just not from the holiday. Might have to do with the fact that Ronan's lying in bed and given how pale he looks, it's not because he wants to sleep in.]

[expeditiousness]

Well, yeah, obviously. Why would I wanna get tied down in a relationship? [he shudders for dramatic effect.]

[somnioergosum]

Because it's cool. If you're ready for it. 'Course you sound twelve right now, so give it a few years.

[expeditiousness]

I'm eighteen, smartass. And I don't need time - I've seen plenty of my brother's boyfriend problems. No thanks.

[somnioergosum]

I mean, you look eighteen but you're talking about throwing up over a holiday.

[He pauses.]

But it is overkill. Those stupid fucking bubbles.

Anyway, since when does it matter what your brother does? Mine makes it his own personal goal to see how many women he can screw before his girlfriend catches on and dumps him. Doesn't stop me from settling down.

Hey, man, you do you. [tommy throws up his hands in defense.] I’m just saying, even if I already didn’t do feelings, seeing my little bro’s relationship problems would convince me it’s a bad idea. I don’t have to make all of my own mistakes when I can learn from his.

[ikols]

Hey!

... That's valid, but I still protest.

[expeditiousness]

I’m shocked. [no, he isn’t.] Considering you’re part of the problem ... ?

[wiccant]

Tommy!

[expeditiousness]

What? He even said it was valid!

[wiccant]

Loki isn't part of any problem. I don't have any problems right now? Everything's pretty great, actually.

( why are you like this. )

No boyfriend problems here.

[expeditiousness]

[sounds very fake, billy.] I distinctly remember you saying you were gonna go live in a hut in the forest not that long ago. Maybe things are fine now, but you still had problems before.

[wiccant]

That was four years ago for me.

( wow don't give him that look, everything is fine. )

I don't have any problems now.

[expeditiousness]

[biiiig eyeroll]

Sure, Billy. Future you is perfect.

[wiccant]

Okay, not perfect. I have other problems.

( don't be sassy with him, dude. )

But none like that.

[expeditiousness]

[ok but have you met tommy, sass is like his primary language.]

Whatever, dude. [throws up his hands!] It’s your life, you do what you want. My point was that I don’t want my life to look like that.

[ikols]

[ How easy can it be to feed into Loki's insecurities? Very. He doesn't argue being a problem even if he likes to think he has some right after over a year of semi-successfully dating Billy. However, colour him curious. ]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[ He may have some. ]

[expeditiousness]

[squints. r u trolling or.]

You can't possibly be that stupid.
