SEÁN MCLOUGHLIN

seán
Rory why is everyone on
my timeline talking about
you moving in with Corpse?

rory
oh because i did

seán
WHAT?

rory
did i not tell you?

seán
clearly not!!
hence the surprise

rory
oh oops
sorryyy

rory
well it's true

rory
i am now living with corpse

seán
what the fuck

seán
how did that happen?

rory
well i took all the stuff out
of my apartment and put
it into corpses 🤗

seán
i hate you.

rory
i'm kidding

rory
no it's only temporary until
i find an apartment of my own

rory
i got evicted and corpse offered
to let me stay until i
found somewhere else

seán
wow

seán
okay that wasn't what i expected
to hear when i woke up this morning

seán
sorry to hear you got evicted
but i guess it worked out
well in the end

rory
yeah i guess it did

seán
so how is it living with Corpse?

seán
is his voice even deeper
in the morning?

rory
oh yeah
wayyy deeper

rory
i didn't even think that
was humanly possible

seán
damn

rory
but yeah it's so fun
living together

rory
it's weird because i was so
nervous about moving in
but now it just feels???
normal???

rory
idk but it feels like we've
been friends forever

seán
aww Rors i'm so happy
for you guys

rory
chill dude
we're just roommates

seán
...and they were roommates

rory
of course you would
quote that vine

seán
i just said that i'm happy
for you guys getting along

seán
you chose to take it that way

rory
shut up

seán
hey you're the one thinking
about Corpse in that way

rory
omg shut UP

rory
this conversation is over

rory
goodbye

seán
hahahah
bye Rory

seán
say hi to Corpse for me ;)

rae
rory!
wanna play some
among us later?

rae
if you're not set up to stream
still don't worry we can play
another time ^_^

rory
omg yes corpse mentioned
you guys were thinking
about playing

rory
i just finished setting
up everything actually so
yeah i'm down to play

rae
okay great!!

rae
it's drunk among us btw

rae
so bring drinks & have fun

aurora
drunk among us?
yeah no i'm out

rae
what? no! why?

aurora
rae you've seen me drunk

aurora
i'll say something stupid

rae
you'll do that anyway

aurora
touché

aurora
but i have a tendency to say
stupid things around corpse
and now that i live with him it's
going to be even worse

rae
he'll be drunk too it's fine

rae
he probably won't even notice

rae
and besides being drunk is a
perfect excuse for saying
dumb shit

aurora
that is true

aurora
okay fine i'm in

rae
great :)

rae
also i wanted to ask how
your apartment hunt is going

aurora
aha yeah my apartment hunt

aurora
ngl i haven't actually
been looking

rae
oh

rae
i thought you living with
corpse was only temporary
until you found a place

aurora
no it is

aurora
it's just that a part of me
kinda likes having a roommate

aurora
and i kinda like having
corpse as a roommate

rae
awww that makes me
so happy

aurora
have you been talking to seán?
because he had the same
reaction when i was talking to
him about being roommates

rae
hahah no i haven't

rae
he just sees the same as
everyone else does

aurora
and what is that?

rae
that the two of you
clearly have chemistry

aurora
okay but it's not like i
can do anything about it

rae
and why not?

aurora
because relationships just
fuck everything up

aurora
i've had a lot of bad relationships
which meant i lost a lot of
really good friends

aurora
corpse is such an amazing
friend and i really can't
risk losing that

aurora
can i?

rae
rory you won't lose him

rae
your relationship with him
is way too strong for that

rae
i just want to see you both
happy but if you think you'll
be happier as just friends then
i fully support you

rae
just don't be scared to try
if it's what you really want

aurora
i know i know
i overthink this stuff too much

aurora
i do like him and he knows that
i'm just scared of fucking things
up like i always do

rae
you won't ror

rae
just make the most of the time
you'll have living together and
i'm sure you'll figure out what to do

aurora
yeah you're right

rae
i usually am

aurora
wow okay

rae
hahaha
i'll talk to you later then

aurora
yes
see ya tonight <3
