You should know where to find me.
But if you leave a message here, I will see it.

[Yeah, dammit, ok, he's charmed. He might even be kind of... smiling? as he jabs out his reply, but that's fine. No-one's watching.]

I'm gratified you mentioned the work first. Most people find it difficult to see past the cover.

I trust you've successfully recaptured your errant soul? Or are you in need of assistance.

[ Did Kylo Ren just make a joke? That reads suspiciously like a joke. ]

its fine i dont actually need a soul to live
its probably safer chilling out in a book cover anyway

[photophobic]

[Kylo Ren absolutely did just make a joke. For a given value of 'joke'. He amuses himself at least.]

It wouldn't be the first to seek refuge in the dark.

That's what it is. The cover. It's captured darkness.

[made_up_names]

wait what for real
like, magic captured darkness or whatever
or is this a Force power i dont know about yet

[photophobic]

What do you know of the Force, Peter?

[made_up_names]

[ Goddammit why does he keep doing that to himself. Don't be that asshole, Peter Parker. ]

i
look, the truth is weird and you probably dont want to know it
can we stick with me just being really excited and fascinated by it? the Force absolutely doesnt exist back home and i think its the coolest thing ever that you can use it

[photophobic]

I'm not certain the Force truly exists here. It's like a shadow. Stripped of its depth. Limited.

But I can use it, all the same. Perhaps I can give you a demonstration some time. To satisfy your curiosity.

[made_up_names]

really? you mean it?

[photophobic]

A reasonable exchange, surely? Considering your earlier willingness to demonstrate your remarkable adhesive ability for me.

[made_up_names]

oh yeah thats right
that sounds like a deal

[photophobic]

[Asking Kylo Ren, discoverer of secrets and all-round crazy OP space sorcerer to demonstrate his abilities, what could possibly go wrong?

Still, what follows is an address. Again, only fair considering Kylo has Peter's. Right?]

Come collect whenever you wish. You may want to bring something for the monsters.

[made_up_names]

[ This is totally a great plan that will never backfire. Especially given that it already backfired with Stiles. ]

uhhhhhh
monsters?

[photophobic]

Yes. Monsters. Don't tell me you thought I was the only one living here.

[made_up_names]

well no obviously i thought you had roommates, just not monster roommates
roommonsters

[photophobic]

Most of them stay out of the farmhouse itself.
As long as they are suitably appeased.

[made_up_names]

soooo uh
are we talking like blood sacrifice
or scooby snacks

[photophobic]

I imagine that depends on the depth of relationship you are hoping to develop.

And the object of your affection.

But in most cases, a little meat will suffice.

[made_up_names]

meat, cool, got it
ill pick something up and be over there in like
wait what time is it

[ It's late, Peter. Too late. ]

[photophobic]

[it's certainly late enough that Kylo's already in his PJs and about to settle in for a comfortable evening of scoffing at The Bachelor with his extremely significant other...]

Approaching in the dark might be unwise.

[made_up_names]

yyyyyeah okay thats. fair.
and tomorrow i have school i guess
saturday morning?

[photophobic]

Of course. I wouldn't want to distract you from your studies.

[made_up_names]

well
"""""studies"""""
probably trying to be a normal student was a mistake

[photophobic]

[Someone has never been a normal student at a normal school and is both bitter and smug about it at the same time.]

Having difficulty sticking to the syllabus?

[Yep.]

[made_up_names]

it. look. i forgot how boring all this was
and why i even wanted to go back to school to begin with

[photophobic]

Perhaps you simply did what you knew was expected of you.
It's never enough.
