What? How could that happen?

[lazyinlove]

there's this thing they never told us. someone said it anon the other day and it freaked me out and then...this. it's true. what we do in the past changes the world. it fucks with peoples lives.

[There's a lengthy delay before Maria replies. Yes, she'd understood that their purpose in being here was to change history, but she hadn't considered that such actions might erase people around them in the present day. It's more than a little disturbing.]

My condolences.

[lazyinlove]

mine too.

[givetheslip]

Unfortunately, I won't be able to joined you. I'm in jail at the moment.

[lazyinlove]

oh. hadn't heard.

[givetheslip]

I'll understand if you'd rather not speak with me anymore.

[But she's not actually sorry for the mutiny.]

[lazyinlove]

just because you did something stupid?

I'd never get to know people that way.

[givetheslip]

I can't say I agree with your assessment, but I appreciate the sentiment.

[lazyinlove]

pretty sure it's a thing we can't agree on

I'm good with that

[givetheslip]

All right then.

I'm sorry I won't be able to join you tonight.

[lazyinlove]

thanks
