For those of you who might give a fuck, Jake English is gone from the bubble again.
The kid's going to earn himself a title of flighty broad, at this rate.
Maybe the third time's the charm, if our "great and powerful God" deigns to deliver him a third time.
I rather suspect that it's too busy quoting Dirty Harry at us and our delightful circumstance.

Dude, way to pick a completely impossible color of text for me to read. I had to go create a new app for my SFC that would actually let me read it.

Jake left? I just met the dude last week and now he's gone? Major bummer 'cause he seemed cool.

[shippingmath]

If it's that much of a pain, you could have asked me to lay off.
I'm not a troll, I'm not attached to the color or style in which I type, because I am not a human who is ridiculous enough to have a quirk.

He has a tendency to fuck off to the island for adventure and shit, so not being able to find him isn't always a prerequisite for his leaving Vatheon. But it's the case in this instance.
He's a cool dude, all right.
Don't know if he mentioned it to you, we've been bros for years.

[fundemetal]

Sorry, I didn't mean for that to come off mean sounding or anything. It's fine. But thanks for dropping it anyway.

That sucks. Maybe he'll come back soon.

Yeah, he mentioned it. He also told me you were from Houston, TX. If we weren't from alternate versions of Earth from each other, I could say we have the same hometown. Guess I could say that now anyway.

[spacecase]

SIIIIIIIGH....
i suppose sympathies are in order but
dammit i am more annoyed than anything :\
what is it with my family members and constantly leaving!

yes he cannot control it
nobody can control what happens
i do not know why i feel annoyed when i know that much

[shippingmath]

Who the hell knows.
Statistically, however, I suspect it's because you and your friends have been in Vatheon for longer than people from my universe has.
More time means more opportunities to get disappearances.
Though between Jane and Jake, it's starting to look like Ro-Lal and I have been having an incredibly long streak of luck, to stay here as long as we have.

[spacecase]

i am very glad that you and roxy are still here
call it silly, but having other humans from our world around is comforting
though i do have john and dave back now, i dont know how long they will actually stay :x
this place wreaks havoc on your optimism!

[GUESS WHO CAN'T READ]

Your words look like an orange ice cream bar!

[video]

[shippingmath]

[What is reading comprehension, apparently. But since he actually wants her to pay attention to the content, rather than the color, he'll respond with video.]

Good work, full marks. You got out of this exactly what I wanted you to.

[video]

[fourleafed]

[TRIUMPHANT]

I got full marks!

[And then a moment later, the excitement wears off and is replaced by slight confusion.]

What's a mark?

[thekidsare0kay]

2hit, y0u guy2 have all the bad luck.

[shippingmath]

Perhaps not all of it.
But it seems that we're inadvertently possessed of a rather large percentage of it.
In summation. FML.

[replicatedcourage]

you sound really mad

[This is his worried face. Only you can't see it over text. But he's making one.]

[text]

[shippingmath]

Nah, dude, not mad.
Irritated, maybe. Or disappointed.
I could go on listing different word choices all day.

[Text]

[stridercentric]

[Well. ...Well.]

so. how many tables are being flipped into orbit right now?

[Text]

[shippingmath]

None of the tables.
None of them, because any tables that may or may not be flipped will certainly not be flipped with enough power to reach the edges of the atmosphere.
That would be a useless waste of energy on a reaction to a fact of daily life here.

[pranksterheir]

that sucks.

[He's not sure what else to say, bummed about it.]

[shippingmath]

Such is goddamn life.
You get much chance to talk with him, Egbert?

[text]

[runawayrival]

I'm really sorry your friend is gone.

I hope you at least got to spend some time with him and make some nice memories.

[text]

[shippingmath]

He hasn't disappeared and reappeared enough times to make me say it's better for him to not show up at all, so I suppose that counts for something.

[That doesn't really answer anything, but the truth is kind of complicated there.]

[ex_knowledge575]

Oh. Pretty delightful huh. Sorry about that. I assume you were close?

[ This is Annabeth's first experience with someone leaving the bubble. She hopes Dirk doesn't mind talking about it. ]

[shippingmath]

[Because he doesn't know that the dyslexia is something for all demigods, Dirk doesn't switch out of orange text for the moment. It's probably a good thing that Annabeth's gotten that app from Leo.]

Got it in one.
We were friends for years back in our world. And attempting to continue that here, until this lovely event occurred.

[Private]

[cawcawmthrfckrs]

and i still didnt get to punch him in the face
the opportunity has been utterly wasted and im sure that someone somewhere is cursing my name for that
still
i wont say sorry cause that just sounds so damn hollow even to my ears
not to mention that it wont bring your best bro back
so
i guess
ill just say im here for you

[Private]

[shippingmath]

Ain't the first time it's happened, and ain't the worst circumstances, either.
My fragile maiden's heart has been broken before, it can withstand this cruel blow from fate.
As opposed to a fun blow from fate, if such a thing even exists.
Point is, I'll be fine.

That said, if you're not there for movies tomorrow, we will have problems.

Or Missing Marauder, if we're going into this shit for alliteration.
He disappeared before, and didn't remember shit when he got back.
Having someone you know disappear is probably this place's fucking morbid way of making you a part of the old guard.
Lost someone? Now you're a real Vatheon Foreigner.
