We've passed so many sinking friendships, so sure that wouldn't be our fate

((George Fletcher-Hart and Harrison Ricciardo continued from We're nothing but a ship of fools, basking in our days of glory


hey
i was just wondering , were you like
planning on going to sonia's thing she was planning
i know nas is for sure
uh
hello?

No, I'm not going


oh
okay

Why? Are you going?


uh
probably not
well uh
i wasn't gonna go but then i figured that if everybody else was going then i would
and i was certain sarah would be going and nasir told me he would and obviously its uh
at sonia's place
haha
so i needed to check with you

Right
Well, I'm not, so that's your decision made


yeah i guess so
um
can i ask why you're not going?

What's the point?
We should all have figured out by now what's happened to him
Logically there isn't any other explanation
Doing this only serves to extend the hurt for the people who are hurting, doing shit specifically centred around him
And it puts the guy on a pedestal
He didn't fight in a war or anything, he didn't die to save us, he wasn't a martyr
He was just a guy


oh
okay
yeah i guess that all makes sense

Mm
So what's your excuse for not going?


uh
i've got other business to attend to
around town

I see
Can I ask what that 'business' is?


i'd
um
i'd rather not say
it's kinda personal
kinda private

Right
Well I'm not gonna pry if it really is private


thanks
well um, I should like

George, I think you should listen to my advice


oh
uh

If it has anything to do with him, anything at all, forget it
Drop it.
Leave it all alone, forget your plans
Maybe if you still feel the same way after a couple of weeks then be my guest, go mad
But I don't see this doing anything good for you


i
right
okay
i'll keep that in mind
thanks
anyway i really should be going now my mom needs help taking the groceries in

Sure
I'll see you around


yeah
see you
