TIM
i know its late but is that offer to talk still on the table?

PETER
No

PETER
Jk! You're like my favorite person on the internet and I'm avoiding going to sleep

PETER
What's up?

TIM
my parents died earlier this week

PETER
Oh my god I'm so sorry

TIM
i don't even know why im dropping this on you like this we aren't even really friends we just play games together

PETER
Just because we don't know each other in real life doesn't mean we aren't friends

PETER
And I don't want to make this about me but my parents both died out of nowhere when I was little so I know what it's like

TIM
look at us, a couple of fucking orphans

PETER
You have a place to stay right? I'm not really sure where you even live but my room has bunkbeds if you ever need somewhere to crash

TIM
no it's okay my godfather has custody of me

TIM
and i live in new jersey

PETER
Ayyyyy I'm in New York!

PETER
I didn't think anyone in the party except me and Ned even lived in America

TIM
wait who in the party isn't from the us? besides adnan he talks about london all the time

PETER
Cole lives in South Africa and Emil is in Brasil

PETER
Stef tried to convince me you guys were in Canada lol

TIM
do you actually talk outside of the chat?

PETER
I like to get to know people ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

PETER
And it's easier over the internet

TIM
i guess

TIM
do you still think about your parents

PETER
I was only four when they died so I can't really remember them as much as I would like but yeah. All the time really.

TIM
what was it like

TIM
when it happened i mean

PETER
They dropped me off at my aunt and uncles house while they flew to a conference in Switzerland and I just never saw them again. I can remember my uncle getting that call though

PETER
We were in the living room watching Ice Age because I loved that movie and the phone rang so he paused it and went to pick it up and I'm not completely sure what they said to him but he just when completely white. And he was a tan guy so it scared me a little but I just wanted to watch the movie because I was a little kid and he wouldn't put it back on so I started to cry and then he just hugged me and started crying and this is so stupid but I still didn't get why he was upset you know? I just remember thinking that we'd both stop being sad if he just put the movie back on but he wouldn't and I just couldn't get why

TIM
and you've lived with them ever since?

PETER
Yeah, they didn't have kids or anything so I'm like their quasi child

PETER
What's your godfather like?

TIM
it's hard to explain

TIM
he has an older son who doesn't live at home anymore and another one who actually passed away early this year so im the only kid at home but it's a big house and he's always away so it's so empty but even when he's around it's like living with a ghost

TIM
don't get me wrong he's a really really good guy but idk he's distant and we have basically nothing in common

PETER
His son died this year? He's probably feeling really apprehensive because on one hand he doesn't want you to feel like your a replacement for his son but he doesn't want to feel like he's replacing his son and I'm sure he's not too keen on getting attached to another kid again

PETER
I think he'll warm up to you, and you to him

TIM
i just feel like he's hiding something

TIM
but you're probably right. and it's late you should go to bed

PETER
You too! Goodnight Tim

TIM
night peter
