so... he won't.)
LOL = laugh out loud sup = what's up? ig = i guess
That's my bad, man. I wish people's usernames had what year they're from in them. That'd make everything so much easier to figure out, am I right?
Yeah, it totally would. It'd just be a solid reference for people to refer to when they're chatting with you, but we just met and it's not like I know what's best for you.
I wasn't laughing aloud, though, no. I was laughing inwardly, but if you type it it kinda sets a mood for the text. Things like that can change the whole tone of your message.
That makes sense, since words can be interpreted differently in these little letters. Claiming to be laughing out loudly when you're not even laughing is just misleading though.
[ So he doesn't get it, still.
But he does remember why the name 'Jonas' is kind of familiar now. ] Hold on, I've heard your name before. Are you Jonas from that land of 'Oregon'?
It's not misleading, it's a joke. So if you're too serious about it, ofc it's gonna get misconstrued. Just loosen up a bit about texting and you'll get accustomed to all of the lingo in no time flat.
Promise.
(stares at this next part, though, squinting his skepticism.)
How do you know about Oregon, anyway? Like that's definitely me, yeah, so you're talking to the right guy, but we've never met. I don't think. So someone's been gossiping about me.
[ He doesn't actually know the meaning to his name. ]
Of course he did. He'll take any opportunity to give me shit about something. [ Though Jean sounds annoyed, that's actually how they bond with each other, so he doesn't actually mind it. ] I'm glad you were able to have that loud laugh.
[ Sarcasm dripping through the text. ]
Does 'Eren' mean anything in ... English? [ He wants to return the favour. ]
Thanks, I take any and all opportunity to laugh at the suffering of others. That's totally my whole deal.
(ah, a fellow sarcasm enthusiast. it's a talent they should be proud of and one jonas holds very dear to his heart. being mildly pettyβbut not overlyβis an art form.)
I'm not sure about Eren, but "Erin" is a girl's name where I come from. Not that that's bad, or anything. It's just the only thing I can think of.
[ He could stop talking here, but he's bored and Jonas looks like he knows a lot about the future being a guy from 2016 (apparently). It's time to utilize this potentially valuable resource aka ask him stupid questions. this is #oldpeoplefacebook ]
Can you at least tell me how to remove a photograph from inside this watch?
No, the transmitting radio waves interact with the thick magic in the air and it intercepts the digitalized data, deleting it before it gets to me. I can try to explain it in simpler terms, but it's really hard to wrap your head around.
But don't blame me, blame the Coven for making such crappy technology.
Here, I'll send you a pic I don't want anymore. Hold on a sec.
No, I didn't. This is a really stupid way to design things.
[ Why would you do this Jonas ... That explanation has him feeling really out of his depth, and he wouldn't put it outside the realm of possibility given the way things worked in Aefenglom. Jean's close to completely ignorant about magic and technology, and with his awareness of that he's also more willing to believe other people's explanations. It's unfortunate, but he ends up believing Jonas.
So Jonas will receive this attachment of Jean staring at the mirror with no shirt on, fingers rubbing the beard on his chin as he appraises himself. His built is quite tall with well-defined muscle. Of course the first thing that a guy does after learning how to take a photograph is see how his own body looks in pictures. This is Important.

Would it be easier if I had the year on there? [ please don't make him change his username to kirstein_850. not that he knows how.
but okay. okay. he is learning some new things today. ]
Were you really laughing loudly just now? I can't see what could be so funny.

[ Or he can just blame it on the medium, that's fine. ]
I know who you are because you told Eren my name means pants, and he thought it'd be a good idea to wake me up at three in the morning to let me know.
[ So thank you for that, Jonas. ]
no subject
I'm sorry he woke you up, because that was also a joke and apparently he liked it a lot. Jean just looks like the word "jeans" in English hahahahhaha
(is he being a dick? maybe. does he notice? nein.)
Jean probably actually means "God's great, we all love that guy" but idk.
