[traumatology]

really? you struck me as the type to like all those stupid phone games.

[white_widow]

Do I? Why?

You aren't wrong. They are mesmerizing little time suckers. But I would give them up for never having to deal with idiots on the internet again.

[traumatology]

i don't know why, it just seems like something you'd like. maybe because it's something you could beat and brag about.

[white_widow]

That makes sense. I do like doing those things.

[traumatology]

i just tend to crush the buttons when i play them.

[white_widow]

Which ones did you try to play?

[traumatology]

uh the candy crush one
and farmville

i hated that last one.

[white_widow]

Oh, farmville was terrible, I agree. you could not even name the animals!

[traumatology]

all my crops always died.

[white_widow]

The timing mechanic did also suck.

i know too much about farmville still

[traumatology]

yeah, don't look at your phone for a few hours and everything was dead and rotted.

don't feel bad, I was sucked into that myself

[white_widow]

More reason it is better to be an old grump about phones.

[traumatology]

i'd still have a damn flip phone if i could get away with it.

[white_widow]

Now I know what to get you for Christmas.

[traumatology]

don't get me anything. i don't need anything.

[white_widow]

Good thing Christmas is not about need, in that case.

[traumatology]

well i don't want anything either.

[white_widow]

Why not?

[traumatology]

because.

( totally fine answer. )

[white_widow]

... Okay. Did a witch put a magic spell on you today that I need to know about or anything?

[traumatology]

what makes you say that?

[white_widow]

Well, that was a very toddler answer. I thought perhaps you might have been de-aged. Or cursed to give one word answers, but you have disproven that one.

[traumatology]

oh my god.

because there are better ways to spend money. spent it on someone else.

[white_widow]

Excuse you, I get to decide what the best ways to spend my money are. If that means I want to do something silly like buy all my friends outdated technology for Christmas, I am allowed to do so.

[traumatology]

fine if that's what you wanna do. i can't stop you.

get me a roomba.
