for @psychduo-week day 6: silence/sound transcript under cutText message log between Simon and Athena:S - Do you have your wallet? Your keys? Your phone? Your charger? Cash in your wallet? ID? Charger for Widget? Do you have your bus card in case your car breaks down? Are you adequately fuelled? Do you have a squeegee in your car? Do you have your Taka feather I gave you three months ago because I want it backA - OMG shut UP Simon! I’ve got everything!! I know you’re doing this specifically to annoy me because I can’t turn notifs off in case it’s a work call. Which this is not. By the way. Do something more productive with your day off! Mamma mia! Go hang out with your clown friendsS - Buy my silence. Permanently. $8000 per month. For $8000 a month, I will stop.A - why did you use your mugshot for thisS - It’s the best photo of me ever taken and nothing will ever come close to matching it.A - ok whatever can you stop texting me you’re so annoying. I’m literally fineS - Until you want to admit the truth that you are, in fact, not fine, my silencing fee is $8000/month as stated above. If you send a hitman after me, I’ll defeat them so don’t bother. First page of comic continuation:A - Hey, Si… I got your stupid texts.S - Are you alright?A - I’m not sending a hitman after you…S - I know you’re not. Athena, if you’re not up for it, you don’t have to take this case-A - There you go again. Doubting me. I’m a lawyer, Simon. I will defend my client to the end, no matter what that end may be. You don’t have to worry about me. I’m capable of handling this.S - … I do not doubt your abilities. In fact, it’s that I lack your empathetic ability that I must resort to incessant nagging…Thoughts narrated: You always try so hard to be brave, Athena. With tears streaming down your face, you’ll tell everyone else that everything is going to be alright. That’s the kind of person you are. Second page of comic continuation: A - I know. I’m not mad at you. It’s just that everyone always seems to be doubting me… even my client. I could hear it in their heart. That sad, desperate sound… their heart crying, “Now I know I can’t be saved…” Wish this thing had an off-switch, hahahaha! Even Widget gets a break, sometimes! Me? I’m stuck like this. Forever.I just… wish I was… normal, Si. Hearing everything people are feeling all the time is tiring. I’m so tired…S - Then rest, Athena. You’re not failing anyone for taking time for yourself. I am not saying this because I doubt that you are capable. I am saying this because even capable individuals need to recuperate.A - You’re making me cry…S - There, there. You can trust me. I’m a psychologist.A - Hey…! I’m a psychologist too, buster…! -- source link
