[ ... All right then. ]

I know Duplicity's pushy about us sleeping with as many people as possible as often as possible, but now it's getting ridiculous.

[rockypath]

i've lost count of the number of these i've gotten/'sent'. still, i guess it's nice to meet new people?

[bunchofscrewups]

Really? You're the first for me. I guess they like you.

I'm Cal.

[rockypath]

Maybe it's because I'm new.
Or because I have a lot of kinks...?
Who's the say?

Faith, obviously.
So, tell me Cal. Any thoughts on wrestling?
In general or the sexy kind, take your pick.

[bunchofscrewups]

You're not the first person to ask me about that. Or Duplicity isn't the first to ask me about it, I guess.

I guess my thoughts are wrestling can be fun.

[rockypath]

I agree. It's fun to throw your weight around and test your skills against someone else.

And well, smashing your bodies together can naturally lead to other things. Provided you like the other person. Hell, even if you don't!

[bunchofscrewups]

[ 'Smashing your bodies together'. That sure is one way of putting it. ]

Speaking from experience?

[rockypath]

Might be, yeah.
I take it that it's not something you've done?

[bunchofscrewups]

Definitely not with someone I don't like.

[rockypath]

I guess I should have specified. Maybe not something you despise. Not a mortal enemy.
More like someone you argue with a lot or don't down right despise but always find yourself fighting with for whatever reason.
In part because there's just that little bit of baseline attraction you can't shake.

[bunchofscrewups]

[ ... Yeah, you know. Maybe. ]

Oh. I think I get it.

I'll admit, before I arrived here I never really felt attraction.

[rockypath]

NEVER?
Not even like ONE time?

[bunchofscrewups]

Not that I can remember. I had a lot of other stuff going on.

[rockypath]

Whatever it was, I'm sorry.
Because it had to be terrible.
Cause like, my life was pretty shit, but it sure didn't stop me from wanting to get down.

[bunchofscrewups]

It was terrible, but mostly better now. I'm glad you were less disconnected from yourself regardless of a shit life.

[rockypath]

I hardly claim to be some pinnacle of healthy coping mechanisms, but thanks.
Glad you're mostly better now? Not that this place gives you much choice.

[bunchofscrewups]

You're welcome. :)

Duplicity had nothing to do with it. It was my choice before I came here.

[rockypath]

So things were looking up for you before here? That's good.
I was on an upswing too before landing here. Would be nice to know how it all plays out instead of being stuck here.
It's not all bad, but... still.

[bunchofscrewups]

I get what you mean. I wasn't exactly in the middle of something, but I've kind of been left hanging.

[rockypath]

Also feeling kind of worthless here, which is another thing.
Like I had a purpose before.
Now? No fucking idea what I'm doing anything for.

[bunchofscrewups]

I know what you mean with that too. I feel pretty stuck.

[rockypath]

I've only been here a month.
And I'm already ready to tear my hair out.

[bunchofscrewups]

Yeah, exactly. When I arrived, the city was flooded and while the water receded they sent us off to this camp to teach us to behave. They called it Camp Harmony. It was not harmonious.

[rockypath]

I'm just surprised to hear the name wasn't some kind of awful innuendo like everything else here.

[bunchofscrewups]

They really like talking about harmony. Apparently, if we all just accepted our roles like good boys and girls, we'd feel harmony. So not as refreshing as it could be.

[ He's unimpressed. ]
