Hey.

Lil says no more dinners/lunches off campus with you.

Fine.

That's probably for the best.

[om_cyclops]

I'm sure I'll regret this:

Why?

[om_panax]

It has a lot to do with that "priorities" thing.

[om_cyclops]

We're still friends.

---

Right?

[om_panax]

Yes. We had better be.

But there's no point pretending I don't care now, so I'm not going to.

[om_cyclops]

Yeah. Okay.

I haven't forgotten.

[om_panax]

No, but you chose. Don't expect that you--and her--enforcing that choice won't bother me.

I'll be over it soon. Just not today.

[om_cyclops]

It's not a choice. Not like you mean. But I understand.

Sorry.
