aww, you're so welcome! you've got nothing to worry about; the pacing is great and you're doing a wonderful job! i doubt you could disappoint me if you tried, hon
GHYRSEGBRSHG OSCAR CAN YOU KISS MY ASS.
i love mark's wishy-washy thought process as he's looking for jack. it jumps back and forth between panicked and forced positivity and it's quite amusing to read. but then we enter ol' boy oscar and i wanna punch him dead in his face. BACK ON OFF THERE BUDDY BOY.
jealous!mark ooooooh
"Well, Oscar invited me out to eat with him and his friends," Jack mumbled.
how about no and also you're not going and also you already agreed???? and also wtf jack and also square up oscar and also mark your jealous is showing. this is crazy, man, how dare oscar just pop up and ruin the flow. THEY WERE SO CLOSE. all mark had to do was confess and he was gonna do it soon and then wa-bam, a problem in the face of a handsome lil australian.
JACK SEES THE JEALOUS.
(i lovelove mark playing stardew valley because it gives me super nostalgic flashbacks of playing harvest moon and i'm just really glad you mentioned that video at all. )
they're so in love they're on the same let's-go-out-to-eat wavelength. they're soulmates. ma'salama i am deceased.
jack's coverups are so terrible, oh my god, he literally just shouts out excuses. that's so very real. seems like loud guys tell loud lies.
PANCAKE MAKING AND SLEPY MARK. WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?? BECAUSE YOU HAVE. VERY MUCH SO. the fluffy moments they experience are so so so precious because it's just so cute and a nice release from some of the sadder moments like anxious thoughts or man-stealing australians ().
you're doing such a wonderful job still, and of course i'm really excited to see more, because this is amazing! (and sorry to hear about the severe weather; i hope everything is okay where you are! )
honestly, after the restaurant debacle (inhale my dong enragement oscar), mark had me terrified. i was legit ready to pop into the story and smack him around the head if he drank. he could've ended up killing himself and that would've been 100% not okay by me and my soul. AND BLESS JACK'S ITALIAN SPEAKING POWERS. i hope oscar and his lil crew got tossed out. I can't believe he was truly thirsty enough to come in and ruin the septiplier date, like damn, son, do you not see the magic happening between the two weirdos with the dyed middle of the head? go find another foreign man and be disgusting in that direction, my friend.
but now there are happy times and kisses and there's so much fluff and adorableness i'm so happy for them because dear lord do they deserve it. they've been through quite a bit of shit (sad jack already had my heart in a vice but then you threw in crying mark like nOOope my entire being was crushed). and they're so so so cute together, so loving and sweet and precious and they still have that childish air of best friend to them, as well. mark and jack play so well off of each other that their lighter interactions are just so pleasant to read.
honestly, the way jack feels — every time something good happens, something bad follows it up — is how i'm feeling, because i know that no matter how sugary sweet they are, it ain't always gonna be like that. and now i'm scared for whatever they may have to jump over and struggle through because babies. and y'know, i have the strangest feeling that we haven't seen the last of oscar..........he's like a weed, never truly dead.
BWAHAHHAHAHAA MARK'S RINGTONE THAT IS ABSOLUTE ART
i'm still loving this soooo much; keep up the amazing work, my friend!
