I have a home office mostly set up in the apartment, go wild. It's just paperwork from Fight Club.
Which is something else you're going to have to address, too. Finalising all the paperwork for the club to finish paying him off so he'll sign off the entire thing.
Mail it to me on Armin's Island. I've got time enough get it filled out by the end of the week, then I'll have him sign when I go home to say goodbye, and not actually tell him I'm leaving until he's signed off.
That's in the Orange Islands, right? Shit's expensive.
[Which isn't to say he won't do it, as Steven will know from the lack of outright refusal.]
I'm mostly worried about you getting hurt or killed by this. Just because we recover doesn't mean it doesn't hurt, [and these two, of everyone here, know that uncomfortably well.] and you've already proven there's ways around it at your leisure, which Jack undoubtedly knows about by now.
And yeah, that's what I'm worried about. He definitely knows the ways around it, because like the chump I am, I told him with my head in his lap, gazing up at him with love in my heart.
[Armin needs to tell someone. He knows Steven is not actually in any danger. He's been in this world long enough that this isn't his first rodeo when it comes to those weird sleep-comas people end up in on occasion, only to wake up with new memories.
Hell, it is exactly what Steven was going to fake to give him a little breathing room from Jack.
At the very least, Tyler should appreciate the level of irony in the narrative here.]
Did Steven tell you about his plan to fake one of those sleep-comas for a week to give himself a little breathing room with regards to Jack?
[Attached is a picture of Steven asleep in a bed. There is a Camerupt laying next to him, beholding Steven with a sort of docile fondness. Which probably explains why half his hair has been licked up in weird spikes.]
[Ugh. This promises to be a shitshow. Tyler, he knows from his first time here six years ago, does not take people changing well at the best of times. And there have been a lot of changes in Steven since he was last in the Pokeworld. According to Charley, he doesn't even move the way he used to.
And the last time he saw Tyler--what he thought was his first because he couldn't remember this world--he'd managed to shove his entire leg down his throat.]
So. I'm awake now.
I saw from Angel's announcement that Jack's gone, but I'd rather not live in his house for much longer regardless. May I still stay in the apartment above Fight Club until I make arrangements to secure a place of my own?
