Edward: Jonathan, you’ve been down here in the basement for three days now and I’m concerned. Maybe you should come up stairs and take ca-

Jonathan: *pushes Edward out the door and then locks it behind him*

Jonathan: Can you handle disposing bugs, spiders, or other creatures you may find in your house?

Edward: ... C’mon

Jonathan: Yeah, that's a no.

Edward: UGH!! THIS IS SO BAD. I am literally failing at the process of becoming an adult.

Jonathan: Which we all know is referred to as...

Edward: Adultery!

Edward: Something is wrong.

Jonathan: Okay? Are you gonna tell me what is wrong?

Edward: ...something.

Edward: I’m cute, right?? Like, the cutest...

Jonathan, being completely out of it and exhausted because he wouldn’t say it otherwise: Yes, you’re cute Edward

Edward:

Edward: :0

Edward: *screaming* he cALLED ME CUTE HE CALLED ME CUTE HE CALLED ME CUTE

Jonathan: *sigh* quit yelling

Edward: /YOU CALLED ME CUTE/

Jonathan: I will rectract that statement if you don’t be quiet.

Edward: I'm not straight but I do what I gotta do. So what? You got a crew? I got a crew too. I'm not straight but I do what I gotta do.~

Jonathan: ... Edward, it’s “I’m not street but I do what I gotta do.”

Edward: NO IT’S NOT

Jonathan: Yes, yes it is.

Edward: How the hell do you even know the lyrics well enough to the song to be able to tell me that the lyrics I’m singing are wrong? They’re not, by the way. it’s “I’m not straight”

Jonathan: You blast that god awful song enough times that I know the lyrics. Plus there’s google. It’s street.

Edward: Even if you were right, which you’re not, why would they write street instead of straight. It makes zero sense.

Jonathan: I can only tell you what they lyrics actually are, not why they make sense.

Edward: But you’re wrong on what they are.

Jonathan: It’s street.

Edward: Straight.

Jonathan: Street.

Edward: STRAIGHT.

Jonathan: Street.

Edward: I’M NOT STREET I’M STRAIGHT.

Jonathan: ...

Edward: ...

Edward: Wait... I’m not straight, I’m gay.

Jonathan: *sarcastic* Incredible. Ten out of Ten.
