[overarches]

[slavophile]

archie.
I'm sorry.
call me tomorrow. please.

fight me i'm not moving threads

[overarches]

( he actually waits several days because he's archie, and he has more than william to worry about, and maybe it takes him a minute to admit what he's suffered does not outweigh the people around him. he stops the trial early. if he gets voicemail, he's hanging tf up. )

[slavophile]

( well, William doesn't expect the call the next day, which means he doesn't expect it a few days after either. )

Archie?

[overarches]

( yeah, well, he doesn't know what to say when he's not being horny on main. )

Hey William. You told me to call you back.

[slavophile]

I did.

( what was implied is, hopefully he wanted to. )

How is everything?

[overarches]

( bro, your issues. )

Clear. I quit the trial. How are you?

[slavophile]

I'm okay. Trying to trace back some of these blackmail attempts. But, I keep hitting more brick walls. Are you - did you want to quit the trial?

( is he doing this right? it's wrong to just say, come on over and fuck me, right? )

[overarches]

I don't think we're supposed to be able to crack it. If you could, wouldn't we all be home already?

( archie thinks he's smart as hell and not because of the age gap. )

You mean did I want to stop taking the pills or did I want to get laid? I realized I didn't need the money and even if I did, to use it for others, it doesn't matter as much as knowing who I am and what I'm doing.

[slavophile]

Probably.

( he's not wrong, if it has something to do with tech and not magic. )

I meant if you needed that money. But, I also wanted you to be lucid. And confident in who you are. Not - affected. I didn't think you stopped taking them just to, to fuck me. I don't overestimate, either.

[overarches]

I wanted it. I didn't need it. Anything I would do for the community with that money probably doesn't matter nearly as much as it would back home. There aren't kids here. ( all the murder, imprisonment, and violence changed him from fitting into that definition. ) You didn't hope I would stop taking them to get closer to you?

( ✨language✨ )

[slavophile]

( there are teens, but why argue that point and he used language first. )

I didn't know if I was allowed to hope you did that. Or, if you could do that, for me. You're ... it's probably best we don't use labels, right?

[overarches]

You're allowed to do whatever you want.

What are you trying not to say?

[slavophile]

I don't want to push you. You're 18 and, I thought, straight. But, you're also off the pills and calling me back. And I wanted you to. That's what I'm trying to say.

( is that what he wants to hear? )

[overarches]

You're not pushing me.

And I thought I was, too. I have a girlfriend back in Riverdale. ( she's obviously not here. ) I didn't plan what happened with you. I liked it. I've been kissed by guys before and I wasn't into it. I've also known one of them forever. It was different.

[slavophile]

Different than kissing me. And everything with me.

( well all guys like hearing that. )

[overarches]

I liked being with you. I wouldn't call you to lie about that.

[slavophile]

I know you wouldn't. I know I don't know you, but I know that. I liked being with you, too.

[overarches]

Do people not usually call you back?

[slavophile]

No, I'm usually called back. You did take a few days. I'm not complaining.

[overarches]

Can we start over? Do something outside of your room?

[slavophile]

Yeah. And out of the rain.

( To be safe. )

[overarches]

You wanna hang out in the lobby? ( he's teasing. he has a poncho — no umbrellas to speak of. )

[slavophile]

Or, maybe get something to eat nearby. I have umbrellas. We can work carefully at not being hit by rain.

( to start )

[overarches]

You wanna grab dinner with me? ( he's not not grinning. )
