Yeah, I used to get yelled at for listening to the Smiths. I guess my choice in music wasn't masculine enough or something.
That sucks, man. You shouldn't have to get used to it. You know if shit ever gets bad, you can come lay low over here for a while. I know my mom wouldn't mind.
Yeah, yeah. Technicalities. Maybe we shared the title.
There is so much I could say, but I'll leave it for now.
You know, just because you can cook some meals doesn't mean you should have to. You're still a kid just as much as I am, you should be able to enjoy someone else cooking for you, still.
They were. Kind of really glad you grew past all of that.
I mean. Technically, yes.[ Takeout was always a luxury for the Byers family, because groceries could churn out multiple meals with the same amount of money as Chinese takeout. ]But there's something about mom's homecooked meals that always hit differently.
I wasn't that great, either, though.[ He's learned his lesson about boundaries and consent when it comes to photography, for instance. ]
I'm glad it worked out the way that it did, for the most part. Wish I had done some things differently, but. I'm hoping that I can make up for that now.

I guess I've just gotten numb to it?Sometimes it's pretty refreshing that they're pretty much nonexistent as shitty as that sounds.
Uh thanks?
That possible?
no subject
That's not something you should have to get numb to, but such is life I guess.
Hey, don't mention it. I know we've had our differences but. We've both grown since then, you know? You shouldn't have to eat dinner alone.
No offense, but pretty sure you former friends would call anyone a freak that didn't fit in.
no subject
If at all...
Thanks but it's really not that bad mostly. At least I can cook some meals and I'm not totally useless.
Yeah.....
They were assholes.

That's what take out is for, right?
Yeah. I was pretty stupid.

I'm sure some people would argue that.
no subject
Maybe. But it's okay, I'm a better person now, I think.
no subject
I'm trying to be.
no subject
Well, it's showing, I think.
no subject
I know it's not exactly much now but-
no subject
Hey, man. It's enough for me.
no subject
Guess it's better than nothing, huh?
no subject
It is. You could have stayed an asshole, like Tommy and Carol. But you didn't.
no subject
Yeah.
A lot of things could have happened differently if they didn't play out like they had.

no subject
I didn't and well-
Guess I'm a babysitter now.
no subject
You're a hero. They really look up to you, and I think that's great.

She didn't have to do that....
