1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:13,760 Hey. You know you were wanted, right? I know what your brain says. I know it's telling 2 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:26,720 you that they're lying. I know. Just listen to me for a second. Yeah? I know it's really 3 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:38,320 fucking hard. But please, just try to ignore those thoughts for just a few minutes. You 4 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:51,680 are amazing. Hands down. You're something fantastic that's come into my life. You're 5 00:00:51,680 --> 00:01:02,640 funny. You're intelligent. You're great at sending cursed memes. You're a good friend. 6 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:08,240 And just in case your brain is telling you that I'm lying right now, I can tell you I'm 7 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:16,360 not. You already know I have a really bad sleep schedule. So those nights where you 8 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:24,720 start spamming me and I respond, those are absolutely fine. I enjoy those late night 9 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:32,160 rambles. They're kind of calming to me. Plus, you know I wouldn't let you, I would let 10 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:40,200 you know if I wasn't enjoying a conversation we're having. Believe me, we're never having 11 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:49,280 the ravioli conversation again. And if we do, I'm throwing a toaster at your head. 12 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:56,200 I don't keep you around because I'm bored or because I have nothing better to do. I 13 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:02,280 spend time with you because I enjoy spending time with you. You're a delight to hang out 14 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:12,440 with online or offline. Your taste in music is impeccable. You find the best random interesting 15 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:20,120 facts about various things and I love it when you info dump on me. It shows what you're 16 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:30,120 interested in. Whether they're the French Revolution fennec foxes or how you think we 17 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:38,000 should bring the trebuchet back. Yes, I still remember that conversation. We absolutely 18 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:44,480 should not. They're not cost effective and difficult to maneuver. I will not be taking 19 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:53,760 any criticism. Anyways, I digress. You've been there for a lot of my shit and I mean 20 00:02:53,760 --> 00:03:01,880 a lot. You were there when I lost my mom. You were there when I found out I got cheated 21 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:10,480 on for the first time. You were there when I was terrified to move out at a young age. 22 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:16,720 And don't think I've not noticed that you've been an anchor for other people too. You've 23 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:26,360 been so strong for everyone else. Have you let anyone else be an anchor for you? Take 24 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:37,080 a moment, please. Breathe. I've seen you. I know how hard you've been working. You're 25 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:46,040 doing good things. No matter what speed it's going at. Everyone goes through their own 26 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:54,840 shit during life and I know that you're absolutely strong enough to endure it. And hey, if there's 27 00:03:54,840 --> 00:04:01,000 some stress falling through the cracks, I'm here to listen. If it means sealing those 28 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:09,320 cracks for a short time. I know it's not the easiest thing to open up. So I'm not asking 29 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:19,400 you to divulge your life story to me. Just please remember you're not alone. You are 30 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:31,040 not a burden. You are loved and appreciated. Even if your brain thinks otherwise, sometimes 31 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:38,720 I care about you so much. You might not like it, but you showed me the slightest bit of 32 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:45,200 human kindness and it went all downhill for you there. You're stuck with me. I'm your 33 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:52,760 problem now. In all seriousness though, I don't know everything you're going through 34 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:59,200 and I likely never will. But what I can do is be in your corner. If you want to vent, 35 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:04,840 I'll be there. If you want to sit in silence together, I'll be there. If you just want 36 00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:12,800 to cry, I'll be there with the worst possible movie and snacks. Yes, the kind you like. 37 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:19,280 I have no idea how you can stand it. But if it's what my protagonist wants, it's what 38 00:05:19,280 --> 00:05:29,040 they get. Oh, and if you ever need reassurance that you're not a bother, feel free to ask 39 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:38,880 away. I will never hesitate to remind you how much I want you around. Now, get your 40 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:59,280 ass over here. It is time for some cuddles.
