Awwwe that was so beautiful!
I loved how you did the last scene and the scene before that.
The smoking was... eh. I dont know. Maybe because I'm not a smoker myself?

But my favorite parts?

because he’s fidgety when he’s nervous, and shoving his hands in his boxers is probably not the best idea.

Cue the silence now, Mr. Director; please cue the fidgeting and nervous chugging of an entire water bottle, goose bumps creeping up arms, the air thick enough to taste, like stale crackers and burnt plastic. Cue that, and watch it crush me to death, okay, Sir? Okay, excellent, thank you.

spill the beans, and then sweep them up and make coffee, or casserole, depending what kind of beans they are

And you made an EENSY little mistake (I think..):

And he hears the voice on the other end of the phone, tinny and distant, softened by wires, saying something. Hey, earth to self, wake up, pay attention, he thinks.

(Is that supposed to be tinny as in tin the metal or tiny?

[therecordskipsx]

ooh, glad you liked it. i'm not a smoker either, really, just. this story wrote itself, haha.

and, it was supposed to be tinny like metal =]

I think the smoking was excellent, and I am a smoker. So there you have it.

Oooh! Now I'mma go smoke. Thanks.

ohmygod.
you just made my life with this.

It’s supposed to fester, or something, supposed to grow and multiply like germs, and you’re supposed to stick a band-aid over a bullet hole and tell everyone that everything is fine, until you’ve got gangrene and you finally die, or come close to it, and you have to tell everyone and get it amputated. That’s what’s supposed to happen. You’re not supposed to get caught in a drive-by.

When I read that, I thought "Wow, I really like that," and then I ended up thinking that like 495937593754974 more times. So basically, the whole thing was just wow. Perfect.
