Okay.

[He takes a deep breath. Lets it out slowly.]

If I thought it would keep him away from you permanently, it would be worth it. But... god, considering how he just decided to stalk us in Olivine, I don't know if it *would*. He's just so... Fuck. I don't even have words. He just casts such a fucking long shadow over *everything*, you know?

God. And except for him, everything's been going so *well*. Sure, I *didn't* make beta rank after Resort Gorgeous, but they more or less inferred that the main reason I didn't is that it's been too soon since I started with the company to promote me that far and they're probably right about that. They liked me enough to give me a multi-use Toxic TM instead, which I would have never asked for, but is absolutely fucking *perfect*.

And it's only been two days since I started in the newsroom but I'm finally not bored off my ass every day at work--I've finally got a *fulfilling* day job in my *field* and that was something I used to despair of ever seeing again. And they *love* me there. They really do. After I let them know I dual-majored in Journalism and Film/Television Production back in our world, they put me on compiling and writing the news reports the *actual* radio hosts read on the air and it's, god, it feels so *good* to listen to the radio news and hear them read the report I did. The chief of staff's *already* told me that I get my reports in faster than most.

And just. All of that would be good on its own, but I beat Morty (albeit barely) and I've got a plan for Chuck and I'm actually *getting* some warps and God, I even placed third at the contest yesterday! I don't even feel bad it was only third, because *everyone's* acts were really good and Rose Universe and Shadowmaru really *deserved* their places.

So. Like. Fuck. You're right. I've got some good shit going on, even with that asshole Solus deciding he has a bug up his ass about needling you and me. I shouldn't waste that.
