these are the consequences of caleb's life choices. the response comes like 10 minutes later

[allyourfeels]

hey, thanks, this is a very nice text so obviously from someone not currently spiraling

want me to pick u up? i can take u home or bring u back here

caleb just like: deep, deep sigh

[extent]

i'm not spiralling im experiencing clarity ok my mind is opened
im sorry i want to win therapy too that doesnt make any sense ur not even competing

im ok caleb dont worry ur pretty little handsome head abt it i just wanted to express my love + affection for all u do

[allyourfeels]

all u win from therapy is a better understanding of yourself + useful coping mechanisms

there's no winning AT therapy tho. like there's no winning AT adulthood, you just keep doing it and hope ur doing it right

thank you, i appreciate you appreciating it. i just hope i'm helping.

[extent]

i know but i still want to win so sometimes i lie and say everythings normal when its not
sorry about that bit more than the other bit

do u like cheesy fries?

[allyourfeels]

that's why being an empath's so handy

who doesn't like cheesy fries?

[extent]

oh fuck thats a good point. if u could read peoples minds would u do it?

cool i might bring u some
not now
maybe now?
no not now in the morning

[allyourfeels]

u can drop in now, help me go over house listings

and my mind-reader friend has no choice. like i have no choice with the empathy thing, it just happens and we gotta learn to handle it

[extent]

im very good at real estate thats a good point
huh
maybe i will come now

no but like if u could choose. would u read someone's mind?

[allyourfeels]

i like to think i wouldn't without permission but idk

would u?

[extent]

no i have enough going on in my own head i think i'd like go insane if i could hear other peoples thoughts too

sometimes when im feeling extra moody i think like 'telepaths fuck off!!' very loudly just in case anyone's being too fucking nosy is that weird

[allyourfeels]

i used to think rly hard at this one kid in class i thought could read my mind so i think thats normal

[extent]

could they read ur mind?

[allyourfeels]

i never confirmed it but i don't think so. they'd have known i was the same and told me about it, i think.

[extent]

what if they had a secret identity superhero thing going on i hear thats all the rage

i still dont rly get it but like whatever costumed fighting works out for plenty of people ig

[allyourfeels]

my sister's got super-strength and if she decided to go full superhero we'd all lose our shits. like, it's not like we could STOP her

[extent]

legit? how super strong?

man my sisters are all just boring ass witches that's cool :(

[allyourfeels]

can pick up a car strong???

magic's cool tho, more stuff to do

[extent]

thats so cool i wish i could pick up a car

i mean i could probably figure out how to magic one up pff the ground but its not the same u know
i want like a cool
nonmagical talent

[allyourfeels]

isn't that like a musician saying "i wanna non-musical talent"?

[extent]

musicians wanting non musician talents is valid too caleb dont kinshame

[allyourfeels]

i'm not! i'm just saying, magic is a valid talent and u should be proud to have it

and if u want an extra talent just pick a hobby u enjoy and do it more

[extent]

:( my hobby was drugs but i cant do that any more can i

[allyourfeels]

nick nick pls it's way too late and/or early to get into why self-destructive habits dont count as hobbies

get into art. u like growing things why dont u try flower arrangements? u could put magic in them, spell them so they live longer or make people feel good or stuff

[extent]

technically they live as long as i do bc i was too lazy to figure out how to make them self-sustaining + like replicate photothingaling

michael is sort of teaching me to play guitar a little

[allyourfeels]

wait wait wait if ur plants are linked 2 u those it mean hurting them hurts u? pls say no
