You've reached Ms. Lalonde. Unfortunately, I'm in no position to take your call right now. Please, do leave me a message and I shall get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for your time.
[ Because while she's texted several people and still is, they aren't Roxanne, who she'd honestly like nothing better than to track down at the moment and just... sit down and talk to. About anything, really, except what's really bothering her. Maybe with a tub of ice cream. Ice cream sounds really good right about now. Of all the times for things to start catching up to her... yeah, she'll be taking a long swig from the bottle she's been nursing, then -- ]
[Mom is actually amused. First Bro dunk texts her, then she drunk texts other people, and now it's come full circle to Val drunk texting people. It's short-lived amusement, at least.]
Yes, I'm still up. Hard to believe, perhaps, but it is what it is. What's up, Val?
[ She's torn. If there's anyone Valeria would really like to talk to about what's bugging her, it's Mom. She would get it. At least, Valeria thinks she would get it. It's just... that one unknown, her memory of the kids teasing Bro about Roxanne that really keeps her from saying anything. Heck, she isn't even supposed to be thinking about those things. That was the point in drinking, to numb certain feelings, drown out certain thoughts, acquire a pleasant buzz, and ride it out until she fell asleep, but it's not exactly working how she planned. If anything, she's started feeling more lonely than she already did. Thus, the texts and well... maybe it wouldn't hurt to say something. As long as she doesn't delve too deep, it should be fine, right? Its not like she's the only one who's going to be suffering a Strider deficiency. ]
Bros leaving tomorrow. [ The dick. And she is handling it like the most mature adult to ever handle anything. By pouting. ]
[Mom can't help tilting her head a little at that. Of course she'll miss the man, since she considers him a very close friend of hers.]
Leaving? I wouldn't worry about it. I think he does that sometimes. He will be back, though. Granted, it won't stop us from missing him during his absence. DId he mention where he was going?
