they might just be upgrades? could turn the radio into a stereo set you’d find in houses.

That’d be cool! You could get a lotta use outta that. Or, hell, sell it if ya want to

refurbishin’, then sell. the better it looks? the more money you get for it in return.

Makes sense. You done it before or would this be the first?

about, too many times to count on one hand.

Damn, didn’t know you had it in ya

oh please, reselling stuff for cash is the most basic level of hustling.

I know. Just wasn’t sure you could manage a sales pitch (😏)

wow. ( a weak chuff; slow tsk from teeth. ) and how many pitches have you had work out, lil’ curtis?

Haven’t sold anything physical yet, but I bet I could. I landed myself a yard work job for most of the summer and my ongoing library volunteer job

just so i understand- you do yard work, in the summer, while you also have yer’ issues with extreme heat. ( sarcastic nodding. ) yep. and the library one sounds real nice. genuinely.

(scoffs) It’s fine. I stay careful, and it’s only caused one issue. I’ve got it handled. Yeah, I’m hopin’ the volunteer hours’ll look good for colleges and all

you better. it’s gonna be near records this summer. — pretty sure they will. colleges love the wave of well rounded individuals that hit many different skill levels.

( squint. ) sure- and when you’re in a crowd, what’s the first thing you could do to be seen? get up higher. funny lil’ thing; you don’t have to stretch yourself so thin to be picked. it’s more about reaching the sweet spot.

How do ya even know what that “sweet spot” is? It feels like every school I look at’s tryin’ to find people that fit in a certain box, and that just ain’t me

it depends. each place has its’ own version. mine needed more of a pentagon. what does the box look like for the school you wanna go to?

I don’t gotta say “hello” to you. You’re around my house all the damn time. I’m just surprised ya’d bother bein’ on here

how am i possibly around all the time when i have other places t’be during the day? make it make sense kid. n’ i bothered because why not, the family’s here and okay. mostly.

How’m I supposed to know how ya manage it? Sounds like your problem, not mine. Yeah, it’s a good place to be

pfft, you shouldn’t. good job. finally sounds like yer’ using that brain you always claim to have. ( light knock to his head. ) you gon’ tell me any energy updates with ya’? huge life events have been popping up left and right.

Asshole (sticks his tongue out) Yeah, no kiddin’. We’re all kinda adjusting to the twins bein’ born. And I dunno if he told ya, but Johnny got approved for a service dog, so everyone’s been real excited. And real tired

everyone’s excited huh? last time a dog came into the house darrel threw an’ entire fit. and that was towards a different service pup.

(sighs) I know. I’ve gotta talk to him about that. It ain’t right that Dally can’t bring Hazelnut around. It hasn’t been right the whole time, but I’m hopin’ now that Dally’s got her certified and all maybe Darry’ll let up

( brows furrowed in the center of acne ridden forehead. a silent thought forms. ) she’s been certified for months now, but uh. good luck with that whole talk. if he still doesn’t allow her in after that, he’s causing a potential emergency risk for no reason.

Ugh, dammit (frustrated, there he goes forgetting shit again) Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m worried about happenin’. Any chance you’d wanna lend me a hand convincing Darry to let Hazel in our house? (he’s mostly joking, thinking there’s no way Steve would want to deal with all that)

on one hand, it’s not exactly my business. on the other hand, this is a major issue that is harming someone. and hating a dog that hasn’t done much to earn the negativity is pretty weird. so it needs to be solved kinda quick. yeah, i can try to lend one.

(blink blink. huh, alright then!) Thanks, Steve. Yeah, I really don’t get why Darry’s been so uptight about this whole thing. Hazelnut’s seriously the smartest and sweetest dog I’ve ever met, including the one we had as kids. And even if she weren’t, she’s still a service dog

uptight is a bit of an understatement. the short few minutes of passing him by on the road felt uptight. when do you wanna attempt to get this done?

Honestly? No clue. My only plan so far’s been to talk to him as soon as I can, but catchin’ him long enough for a serious talk ain’t easy. You got any ideas?

sunday is usually a free day for him ain’t it? at least for half of it anyway. could try a small something then.

That’s true. That could be a real good idea. I’m hopin’ he’ll listen to you better than he’ll listen to me

that’s a lot of hope to get through a thick ass head, but it’s positive. a self improvement instead of ignoring the issue.

If we can’t hope, what else have we got? (shrugs) Yeah… I haven’t been meaning to ignore what was happenin’, but I should’ve done better sooner. Just hope Darry will feel the same way

maybe prayer. ( second best. the tone reads as ‘ self inflicting ’ guilt. ) you shouldn’t beat yourself down over it. you ain’t expected to solve other people’s problems at the drop of a hat. we’ll keep hope as the backup plan.

… Thanks, man. Worst case scenario, maybe we can talk to Soda about it too? Darry listens to him alright

won’t he be busy? dad duties an’ all. should leave that under the last stitch emergency.

That’s true… We’ll figure it out. What’ve ya been up to besides work and all?

not much. i got a ton of beautiful spare parts from the junkyard since they got stamped as unusable. suspensions, sports car based radios, hubcaps. they just needed someone that knows what they’re doin’.

I don’t gotta say “hello” to you. You’re around my house all the damn time. I’m just surprised ya’d bother bein’ on here
