[Therapy. Noah would probably benefit from that, and it wasn't for lack of trying on his parents' part. There were interventions, at least three that he can remember through the half-blocked haze, and none of them ever worked in full. The closest he's ever come to mental health treatment was court-mandated AA in college, but it was about as helpful as a wagging finger from a school principal.]

idk mainly it's just busy

[All go, go, go, and yet never enough to fully occupy his mind. He hasn't felt satisfied in- well, longer than he can remember, for sure.]

i mean don't get me wrong
it fucking rules
but i'm p sure i sleep on more planes than i do beds
like i just did a redeye to miami
and tmrw it's richmond for adele's bday

[You do remember his sister's name, don't you Barry?]

[Whelk does wonder for a moment why pop sensation Adele would be having her birthday in Richmond before he remembers, but yes. Czerny's sister. None of his family was ever terribly fond of Barrington.

[Whelk is pretty sure he sleeps on couches more than beds, but that's not really the same. Especially since he doesn't really sleep much period. He's not quite sure what to say in response to Czerny's grandly busy schedule. There's jealousy, certainly, but what's the use in admitting that? It would be humiliating - aside from that, it's probably obvious anyway.]

The last time I took a plane anywhere it was to Chicago for continued education credits.

Total bullshit, but Aglionby paid for it.

[God, he sounds so lame. Why is he still bothering to respond at all? Anything to keep "Czerny" popping up on his notifications, if he were to be honest with himself - he won't be, of course.]

How long will you be in Richmond?

[He could, Whelk thinks with a tightness in his chest, make a stop by Henrietta, if he were so inclined.

[Beyond wishful thinking. Why would he? Not to see Whelk, certainly.]

oh man hahaha
why would anyone want to CONTINUE education

[You're a manufacturing engineer, Noah. Not the super-cool party kid you put on every morning.]

just a night
then i might hit up home
why, you wanna haaaang?

[So casual. So chill.

So completely high, sorry.]

[Things that were not expected: that.

[He stops himself from typing “really?”, but like...really?]

Sure.

[Is this really happening? Why does he feel so weirdly desperate all of a sudden—- Oh, hell. He has been. Now it’s just mixed with some light ~~gay~~ panic.

[It’s cool, Barry. You’ve done this before. It’s just Czerny. You two used to hang out all the time. Just do what you did when you were seventeen.]

I have acid.
