Sunday (12th April 2015)
(9:06 a.m.)
hi
(9:14 a.m.)
And two days later, Oliver whatshislastname finally descended from his expedition to Pluto, finally making good on his promise of 'later' to Felicity *beep*
(9:15 a.m.)
alright you don't have to guilt trip me
(9:17 a.m.)
I'm not guilt tripping
I'm just practicing being a storyteller
(9:19 a.m.)
On my planet, 'later' doesn't mean two days
(9:21 a.m.)
i'm sorry, ok?
and you don't have to call me by whatshislastname
(9:21 a.m.)
No, I do not want to know your last name
(9:22 a.m.)
why not
(9:25 a.m.)
There's a reason I haven't traced your number yet
(9:25 a.m.)
you can, you know
(9:25 a.m.)
I know I can
See, the thing about hacking is that you don't need people's permission
That's what's so wonderful about it
(9:26 a.m.)
i feel like i should screenshot this and send it to cops
(9:26 a.m.)
Do you really think someone with my skills can so easily arrested by the popo?
(9:26 a.m.)
the what?
(9:26 a.m.)
Nevermind
(9:26 a.m.)
so the reason is…?
(9:28 a.m.)
Yeah I'm not telling you
(9:31 a.m.)
oh come on!
(9:31 a.m.)
Are you going to tell me about what happened on Friday?
(9:36 a.m.)
That's what I thought
By the way, you are exceptionally early today
I feel like I should congratulate you or something
(9:37 a.m.)
yeah i didn't really sleep
felicity, wanna play a game?
(9:38 a.m.)
The last time someone said that to me I had to sit with a cushion for a week
(9:38 a.m.)
the fuck?
(9:38 a.m.)
Nevermind, it's a long story
What game are we playing?
And why didn't you sleep?
(9:39 a.m.)
one at a time, felicity
i didn't sleep cuz tommy kept me up
(9:40 a.m.)
we're playing the surprise-each-other-in-whatever-way-we-can-each-week game
(9:40 a.m.)
Tell me you guys are not cheating behind his girlfriend's back
No judgment, really, but don't ever cheat
(9:41 a.m.)
That's a game with a long ass name
(9:41 a.m.)
what?
no!
i am 100% straight
(9:42 a.m.)
he got his ass drunk and decided i was the perfect target to rant to about his love for his girlfriend
are you in?
(9:50 a.m.)
Good to know
Not that I care
Cuz I have a boyfriend
(9:51 a.m.)
Sounds intriguing
Rules?
(9:52 a.m.)
oh don't worry all women are relieved when they hear that i'm straight
all ^straight women
(9:53 a.m.)
nothing that intentionally reveals our identity to one another
yeah that's what basically all i can think about
(9:55 a.m.)
You are awfully confident in yourself
Wait, were you flirting?
(9:56 a.m.)
Okay, so what do you mean by 'in-whatever-way-we-can'?
(10:03 a.m.)
if you think that's flirting then you haven't seen actual flirting yet
i meant whatever way we can
something about ourselves, something we want each other to do et cetera et cetera
whatever way we can
(10:04 a.m.)
as long as it's reasonable
(10:13 a.m.)
What if we don't find it reasonable?
(10:15 a.m.)
we can say that it's unreasonable to us and refuse to do it
it's that easy
(10:16 a.m.)
Club owners really do have a way with games, don't they?
(10:19 a.m.)
it's just me
(10:20 a.m.)
My friend just asked me why I rolled my eyes so hard that he could see the whites of them for like five seconds
(10:22 a.m.)
are you in or what?
(10:25 a.m.)
What's the prize?
(10:28 a.m.)
if there is an end to this journey that i have started with a wrong message
we get to know who we are
(10:32 a.m.)
I hope there's no end though
(10:35 a.m.)
I'm in
Tuesday (14th April 2015)
(09:35 a.m.)
Starling City, right?
(11:24 a.m.)
good morning
how are you?
i'm fine, thank you
(11:35 a.m.)
On my planet, we greet each other good mornings between 6am and 11am.
Answer my question
(11:35 a.m.)
we're on the same planet stop pretending to be alien
yes, starling city
but you already knew anyway
(11:36 a.m.)
cuz you have a peculiar hobby
(11:41 a.m.)
Don't ruin my fantasies my ambition is to one day acquire my own Tardis.
Perfect.
(11:43 a.m.)
what's a tardis?
what's this about?
(11:43 a.m.)
Oh, the number of times I want to block you for being so uncultured.
(11:43 a.m.)
well excuse me for actually having a life
(11:44 a.m.)
How dare you
(11:45 a.m.)
Whatever you have planned tonight, cancel it.
(11:50 a.m.)
felicity, what's this about?
(11:50 a.m.)
I booked you a dinner for two at Camaje tonight at 7pm.
(11:50 a.m.)
dinner for how many?
(11:51 a.m.)
You need to get a grip on your math
2, Oliver, 2
(11:52 a.m.)
who am i going to bring?
and why?
(11:56 a.m.)
I take games very seriously.
I'm just giving it a head start.
I don't know, bring Tommy or whoever
Just be there.
(12:03 p.m.)
oh the game
okay well, consider me surprised.
(12:04 p.m.)
i'm not bringing my friend to a dinner for two, felicity
and how do you even know camaje?
(12:04 p.m.)
I haven't won yet until tonight
Cuz I've been to Camaje stop asking so many questions and just promise me you'll be there
(12:06 p.m.)
but who am i going to bring
(12:06 p.m.)
That is honestly none of my concern
Now, shoo, I'm in the middle of a very interesting class
(6:49 p.m.)
Are you there?
(6:51 p.m.)
i'm on my way
(6:51 p.m.)
Don't you dare be late.
Took me a lot of ass kissing to get that booking.
Well, not a lot of ass kissing but a lot of…
You know, you don't have to know
(6:52 p.m.)
JUST DON'T BE LATE OLIVER
by the way who are you bringing?
(6:55 p.m.)
stop texting me my friend won't stop teasing me
an old friend
(6:56 p.m.)
If I find out you're late…
(7:13 p.m.)
i'm here
(7:14 p.m.)
Oh my god you're late
Wednesday (15th April 2015)
(2:14 p.m.)
okay how did you make it happen
(2:39 p.m.)
Good afternoon, Oliver
How's your day?
My day's been going fine.
Thank you for asking.
(2:41 p.m.)
it just started
how?
(2:41 p.m.)
You've got to be kidding.
(2:43 p.m.)
i'm not a morning person, okay?
i'm working on it
how?
(2:43 p.m.)
What time do you normally sleep, honestly?
(3:12 p.m.)
i can't sleep
i haven't been able to sleep in five years
i don't know how to just put my head down on the pillow, close my eyes, and just sleep
that's kind of why i decided maybe a nightclub isn't such a bad idea
(3:13 p.m.)
i mean, what better profession for a guy who can't sleep than to run a nightclub?
but then when i sleep, i get dreams
not nightmares, but dreams
well, sometimes nightmares
and then i wake up
and i don't feel like waking up
(3:14 p.m.)
so i go back to sleep
and i wake up
and it goes in repeat
until the time comes when i know that i cannot waste my day away by sleeping any longer
then i wake up
(3:19 p.m.)
i don't know why i told you all that
i don't tell anyone about it
not even tommy knows
(3:25 p.m.)
Don't worry, Oliver. Your secret's safe with me.
(3:27 p.m.)
oh hi, i thought i scared you away
(3:27 p.m.)
You gotta do more than that to get rid of me
(3:29 p.m.)
you haven't answered my question
(3:29 p.m.)
What question?
(3:29 p.m.)
how'd you make it happen
(3:29 p.m.)
Make what happen?
(3:30 p.m.)
last night at camaje
(3:31 p.m.)
Did you like it?
(3:31 p.m.)
felicity, it was amazing
but my friend told me that it's really hard to get a booking there
and you don't come from starling
(3:32 p.m.)
or at least i don't think you do
how'd you make it happen?
(3:32 p.m.)
Who cares?
(3:33 p.m.)
What's most important is that you enjoyed it :)
(3:33 p.m.)
oh come on
(3:34 p.m.)
I have a very influential boyfriend, that's all.
(3:34 p.m.)
what does your boyfriend have to do with anything?
(3:35 p.m.)
He lives in Starling.
(3:36 p.m.)
do i know him?
(3:40 p.m.)
Nice try, Oliver.
(3:41 p.m.)
you are no fun
(3:42 p.m.)
I am no fun?
Excuse you, you don't even know Doctor Who
And you don't understand gaming terms
(3:43 p.m.)
If anyone's no fun, it's you
Besides, a girl could work with a few mysteries
(3:45 p.m.)
where do you study?
(3:45 p.m.)
I won't tell you which institute I study in cuz my name is far too rare
But I will tell you where
I'm currently staying in Massachusetts
(3:47 p.m.)
do you come from massachusetts?
(3:50 p.m.)
Oh I wish
No
I'm from Nevada
(3:51 p.m.)
like las vegas?
(4:00 p.m.)
Exactly Las Vegas
(4:01 p.m.)
Not that hard to guess, is it?
(4:11 p.m.)
quite the contrary
i never would've guessed
(11:23 p.m.)
Hey, Oliver
(11:25 p.m.)
yes, felicity
(11:31 p.m.)
I've just decided that it will be my new mission to help you sleep like a normal person and want to wake up without going back to sleep again
(11:32 p.m.)
pretty sure you need to be here for that
here in as in here in starling city
(11:36 p.m.)
Oh I'm a creative girl
I'll come up with something
(11:36 p.m.)
you never seem to be able to not come up with something
(11:38 p.m.)
It's a talent
My mission commences tomorrow
(11:42 p.m.)
i look forward to it
(11:43 p.m.)
:)
(11:50 p.m.)
felicity?
(11:50 p.m.)
Yes?
(11:50 p.m.)
i don't want to get rid of you
whoop! whoop!
