[...] It'll get smoothed over. Say you're sorry. Maybe acknowledge that this shit is a little [...] sensitive.

I'm actually wondering if we should bring them with us - after laying down some ground rules about not responding to any shit behavior, obviously. Might rile everyone up a bit more but it also shows them we're doing just fine and don't care about their shit.

hemmings.

[geminids]

so say the same shit i always do n hope it ain't too old a story to keep repeating yet. got it.

but d'you reckon it'll make em even more pissed off about what we got if they actually get a look at our o [...] the others?

hemmings.

[arietids]

You pissed that I'm giving you the advice you asked for?

Have a hard time thinking it'll make anything worse in any meaningful way. They'll be mad we're showing up at all. Might as well have emotional support them along. Hell, maybe it'll even make our fam Ken and Co. behave a little. Not good to start dragging magic users into pack politics.

hemmings.

[geminids]

kinda.

[...] can't believe you make a good point but. you make a good point.

hemmings.

[arietids]

Pain in the ass.

I make good points all the time, idiot. And I bet you'll feel better if Broderick is there.

hemmings.

[geminids]

💕i know💕

no shit, i always feel better when he's there. i just spent so much time sayin "no baby forget about em they ain't ever gonna be in the same room as you" n now it's all "psych." like what if they're sellin our horses together cause they knew we'd find out or some shit.

hemmings.

[arietids]

He's a big boy, he'll get over it.

What're they going to do to us if that was their plan? If they're going to try to really start some shit I wouldn't mind backup.

hemmings.

[geminids]

idk??? i was just thinking.

hemmings.

[arietids]

Don't get paranoid. We have to go into this self-assured.

hemmings.

[geminids]

they ain't gonna see it so i gotta get it all out of my system now

hemmings.

[arietids]

[...] Fine.

Maybe it'll end up being anticlimactic.

hemmings.

[geminids]

maybe.



or



maybe they'll try to sour the midlands pack against lettin us run in their territory. maybe they'll decide we don't deserve a pack at all n just run us out of wherever we try n settle down. maybe they won't let us buy our fuckin horses fair n square

hemmings.

[arietids]

Yeah, probably good for you to get this all out now.

But most of that is a lot of effort for people they'd rather pretend didn't exist.

hemmings.

[geminids]

ok but who says they pretend that??? like maybe they got some pack members keepin tabs on us. we still run with the hemming name, ain't like they'd stand by while we [...] did [...] idk. something real bad n shameful to the name. like as they'd see it.

hemmings.

[arietids]

Wouldn't be surprised if they're keeping tabs on us, but in public it may benefit them to ignore us. They've got to keep the name clean too.

hemmings.

[geminids]

doesn't have to be clean when they can just clean up after.

[...] but i'll stop with all the freaking out.

hemmings.

[arietids]

If it's helping, freak out all you want. Doesn't hurt me any.

We'll just have to see how things go. But they do have more to lose than us with acting up.

hemmings.

[geminids]

[...] i wanna get it over with

hemmings.

[arietids]

Me too. Least the auction isn't far off. Let's think of a plan for Keda and Broderick and just [...] try not to worry about it until then.

hemmings.

[geminids]

the plan's "they come n are both gonna be real hot" "but like about your wife i mean that respectfully i ain't into her or nothing"
