my god you're such a dork.
sometimes it really boggles me that people think you are legitimately cool.
anyway, yeah here i am. we were up at the pool.
dj keeps making attempts to go overboard so we have to distract him with the pool every once in a while.
and stella wanted to go in tonight so we stuck her in a little innertube and let her float around it was so damn cute.


[Rose took pictures, don't be surprised if John ends up sending you some. You need a precious baby Gothita in an innertube in your life, Dave. Also this is preparation for when John actually has human babies. Because if you don't think you're going to get spammed with pictures, you have another thing coming my friend.]

but okay to address basically everything you decided to bomb me with:

so am i an oreo now? is that what i am supposed to take away from this? do you miss my creamy filling, dave?
jesus, though this is a three week long trip. i honestly would have been hurt if you didn't text me at least once. :(

is jake awkward around you or just dirk and jane?
or like...awkward in general?
you gotta be more specific, man.

don't worry, i won't tell rose.
but i'm sure jane will warm back up to you soon. event though, yes, everyone in your family is nuts.
but she's good friends with dirk, right?
so i think she just needs a little time to get used to everything again.

i'm glad you're not awkward around jade anymore.
though i think bolting her down might be crossing a bit of a line.
we'll have to find some other method of keeping her here.
i did really miss her though, but at the same time i was stuck with her for three years.
so i think in this case you might have missed her slightly more than me if we're taking residual memory stuff into account here.
i've got three years worth of zany ship adventure memories with her that you don't have and will never know about. :P

and ok look i wasn't sure if i could tell you! it was super secretive, i didn't even tell rose at first!
but i have now, yeah. we talked about it the other night and i told tenten so i think that's going to be A Thing.
but i promise next time i join a super secret society of crime fighters, i will only do it if you are RIGHT THERE NEXT TO ME AT THE TIME OF ADMISSION.
happy now?

i'm all for group activities next time we get together but i have no fucking clue how to skateboard.
that's all i have to say there.

not really, no.
i never really felt like i was in charge of the group when we all traveled together.
so i didn't really feel like a cat herder.

violet sucks balls how long have i been telling you that it's basically cursed?
it's not actually a city.
it's a void of suffering masquerading as a city.
i have said this for years but, just like betty crocker being evil, nobody wanted to believe me.
but now you believe me.
lesson learned: when john says something innocuous is evil, he is definitely 100% correct.

uhh...i don't think i can help you with the rap off thing.
like i would just say for for it man he's your teen brother-dad and you've been sharing a room for how many months now?
i would think that would be weirder than asking for a rap off.
but what do i know about rap ninja etiquette. i know only the prankster's gambit.
and in that case, i feel no apprehension at all.
i'm just just trying to think of a really good one to use on her.
biding my time before i strike.

please don't put jade on a leash.
i get exactly what you're saying but i think a leash might be crossing a line.
maybe we should invest in a jade whistle.
emits frequencies only jade harley can hear.
or get her a shirt.
"if found, please return to dave strider."
then you can get a matching one: "i am dave strider."

and okay there i think that about covers everything.
