[Awwwwwwww, honey,] he says sympathetically.

[temporal_affairs]

[But in fact I do not get nightmares, so whatcha up to now?]

[manofmyword]

[Chainsaw's trying to cut me in half,] he says cheerfully. [He's not getting anywhere. You should see the look on his face, it's hilarious.]

[temporal_affairs]

[I'll use my imagination. Did you explain to him what's going on?]

[manofmyword]

[Kinda sorta.]

[temporal_affairs]

[Did you just tell him you were alive and hard to kill, babe?]

[manofmyword]

[Pretty much.]

[temporal_affairs]

Timer sighs through the brainphone.

[manofmyword]

[Whaaaaaaaaat?]

[temporal_affairs]

[You are very much yourself and you're exasperating and I love you.]

[manofmyword]

[Love you too, sweetie pie.]

[temporal_affairs]

[You be as careful as it is in you to be.]

[manofmyword]

[Deal,] he says affectionately. And then giggles, abruptly, like someone just started tickling him.

[temporal_affairs]

[Lemme guess, you've been introduced to new friends, possibly serrated?]

[manofmyword]

[Got it in one!] he whoops.

[temporal_affairs]

[It is really stunning how well I remember you.]

[manofmyword]

[I'm stunningly memorable.]

[temporal_affairs]

[It's true!]

[manofmyword]

[Mmmm. I love you,] he sighs. [Aww, I'm gettin' all cuddly again.]

[temporal_affairs]

[I'll keep an eye on my timer and I can be at my place waiting for you when Chainsaw's done with you.]

[manofmyword]

[Good plan.]

[temporal_affairs]

[I have those sometimes.]

[manofmyword]

[You do. And I love you for it,] he says happily.

[temporal_affairs]

[What don't you love me for?] Timer asks rhetorically. [Is there any such thing?]

[manofmyword]

He thinks about it.

He concludes: [Nah, not really.]
