What the fuck was that about

From: Little Bird

What the fuck was what about

From: L Stavros

Are you okay?

From: Little Bird

Yeah I’m fine

From: Little Bird

Nothing happened in case you didn’t notice

From: L Stavros

No, I left early

From: L Stavros

How in the hell do you tolerate those people?

From: Little Bird

Who, Fletcher & Jonas?

From: L Stavros

Yes

From: Little Bird

Fletcher is an acquired taste

From: Little Bird

Jonas is a piece of shit

From: Little Bird

No one likes him it’s fine you’re not missing some special trick

From: L Stavros

I don’t know if you’re kidding or what because it doesn’t look like the three of you get along at all

From: Little Bird

We don’t but we don’t have to

From: L Stavros

What is that supposed to mean

From: Little Bird

The point of the teams is to support our own strengths and weaknesses with a counterpart

From: Little Bird

Fletcher and I have skills that complement each other quite nicely, and, most importantly, we trust each other

From: Little Bird

Jonas is glued to Fletcher so you get one you get the other, but he’s as clever as much as he is a fucking prick

From: L Stavros

And you’re okay with that? With the way he treats you?

From: Little Bird

Jesus, no, but I can handle it

From: Little Bird

He’s all bark and no bite

From: L Stavros

I’d say he has quite a bit of bite

From: Little Bird

…. Are you saying he bit you

From: L Stavros

No, but he did punch me

From: Little Bird

I don’t know how to convey through text message my extremely loud burst of laughter combined with “are you okay?!”

From: Little Bird

What did he do?!

From: L Stavros

He has a short fucking fuse and he burns it at both ends

From: L Stavros

You watch yourself around him

From: L Stavros

Around both of them, because Fletcher is not going to be the one to protect you from whatever sort of bomb he’ll set off

From: Little Bird

I don’t need Fletcher to protect me

From: Little Bird

And as much as I appreciate the thought and where it’s coming from, let me remind you: I don’t need you to protect me either

From: Little Bird

I’ve grown, and I’ve learned, and please have a little faith in me

From: L Stavros

I do, and I’m sorry if it sounded like i didn’t

From: L Stavros

I’m learning the hard way what it means to be a responsible adult and have things that I care about and that I have to care for

From: Little Bird

Welcome to the harsh reality of what the rest of us have to deal with

From: Little Bird

You’ll do splendidly

From: L Stavros

Debatable

From: L Stavros

But thanks for the vote of confidence
