Way got discharged.

Yeah, Will just texted me. That's a relief I'm sure. Have you seen him yet?

Briefly this morning. He was bitching about the food and blankets. Prob why doc released him LOL

sounds like Way

Mase Face

whatever happened to that benefit?

my parents decided to do it next year instead

shit because of me?

no…because of me

and there I go thinking the world revolves around me again

to be fair, it kind of all ties together anyway

yeah

Mase Face

Did Ivy send you the video?

She did

Thinking we'll keep doing acoustic covers til Way comes back

any requests?

Lol

my song

Mase Face

how was it?

you know it was perfect

and your fan club loves it, Blue Eyes

I bet Gabe's being insufferable about that

ohhh yeah. He wants it on record that he came up with that nickname

Mase Face

Your mom called. Way and I are going over for dinner next week

i heard

will you be there?

I can't get away from school

Mase Face

Way moved back in. Wonder how long it'll be before Will does too

I saw your new video

Mase Face

Yeah?

I like the song. It's catchy

Ragey

my kind of music

LOL

Mase Face

your birthday's coming up

are you coming home for it this year?

haven't decided yet. I've been really busy

Mase Face

I miss you.

Mase Face

Ok can we just pretend I never said that? It was a weak moment.

Mase Face

Did you see the trailer for Age of Ultron?

I did! But I still haven't seen the first Avengers lol

Fr? Lol me neither

really?

Yup. I'm behind.

same

We can watch it together

Like right now I mean. Not together together. Just at the same time

sure why not

Mase Face

I'm sorry I fucked all this up for us.

you're my best friend. Always will be

i'll do whatever it takes to get your trust back

i should've never crossed that line and put you in that position

you have every right to hate me, but I hope you don't

you know i don't actually hate you

sometimes I wonder how you don't, i really do

says more about me than you, I think

no, no this is all on me

Mase Face

This Frost guy might be onto something

Mase Face

How do you memorize poems like that? I'm lucky if I can remember a single line

you're a musician…

exactly. it's different, there's music to it lol

maybe there's music to poetry too

maybe you're just not listening hard enough

maybe

Mase Face

Jeremy came on the radio today while I was driving

I don't care what actually inspired that song

I don't care about the underlying meaning and metaphors

as far as I'm concerned, it's your song

it's you fighting back

it's you coming out on top
