if that's a polite way of calling arcadia bay a shit pit, you are correct. you def got off lucky not talking to anyone from that place but me or max so far.

i'm ngl, that sounds a lot like blackwell academy. i got in on a scholarship, but it was a place where all the Important Rich Assholes sent their kids, and while maybe it wouldn't have caused like an international meltdown, there would definitely be an inner circle uproar among CEOs and the West Coast Hot Shots if kids and most people only hung out with whoever could give them the highest status pushes among the elite bitches they had friended on social media. victoria was major into that stuff. rachel was too, really. her dad was the district attorney and she knew how to play the politics game better than almost anyone i know.

i hate fake people, so i just gave them the middle finger, but it didn't exactly do great favors for me or my family's reputation because of it. but uh
rachel was the only person i ever really dated because of it
everyone else didn't want to associate with me because of what it could do to their popularity. i had a boyfriend for a little bit, but he was
well, eliot's a long story
i don't really know what i'm doing when it comes to all this shit either

[ ... These are the people she died to save. ]

come over whenever and we'll make your finger tips the hottest shit in town

Considering my only experience with Earth towns is Deerington, I will say with confidence that Arcadia Bay is in better standing.

[ Low bar, but still. ]

I want to say that it wasn't like that, but...I realize that I'm biased. I like to look back on Altea in only a positive light, but that's rarely the case.

[ She idolizes so much of her home world, she doesn't want to besmirch the memory. But putting it above everything else isn't any better. ]

Even so, I couldn't imagine you being someone who would put up with any of that. Of course if you want to share any long stories, I am happy to listen.

Whenever? Are you free now?

i know it's gonna sound fucked, but i actually like deerington more than arcadia bay myself.

ig that's fair. i bet it's different attending a school like that when you've got money/standing vs when you don't. at least, it sure looked like it was from my side.

i used to be hella different. not just in a "before my dad died, i was a way happier person" kinda way, but like even after that. i put up with a lot of shit from people that i wouldn't put up with now.

yeah, totally. did you wanna come here or should i go to you?

You had mentioned that you weren't fond of your hometown, but even after everything that's transpired here?

[ She is a little surprised by that. But she realizes not everyone has a birthplace that they are proud of, let alone fond of. ]

I would imagine so. To be honest, I was more pleased that I wasn't shown preference despite how easy that could have been.

Well, I am quite fond of the person you are now, even though I'm aware that there are things you wish were different and awnt to improve on. I hope that you know I am here for you throughout that process, in whatever capacity you may need me.

I would like to go to you. I'm rather fond of my ride.

[ She knows to call her James Bond car a "ride". She's so hip and with it! ]

yeah. even after. it's the people that make a town. even the evil ones. even if i wasn't dead back home, i think i'd rather stay here and suffer whatever deerington throws at us if it meant being with you and the others, than ever go back to a place where everyone just thought i was worthless.

thanks, allura. it's mutual.

lmao i can appreciate that, it IS pretty sweet. i'll make sure the door's unlocked for you.

You are anything but worthless, Chloe. I can understand that sentiment, at least. For as horrible as things can be here, I feel very fortunate that I was able to meet you and others too.

Wonderful! Then I will see you shortly. Would you like me to pick up anything on the way?
