WHO: Varian and YOU!
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: 22nd June
WHAT: Varian got an emoji curse from his bestie. Fuck that guy.
WARNINGS: A lot of emojis.

🥺Guys, something weird 🤔 is happening to me! 🩺

[There's a short pause. People who know Varian even briefly would know he does not text with emojis. He is a small victorian child and even if he's lived in these modern times for over two years now, his distance of emojis remains pretty clear.

😲 NO!!!!!! It's happening here too??🤬😵 .

😤 Whenever I speak, these stupid emojis 😠 keep floating around my head in the LEAST sensical way possible!🤯 I HATE these things!😡🔪😒

😔 I'm guessing this is Kaisou 🌃 nonsense again- if anyone has dealt with this before and knows hot to fix it 🪛 , I'd REALLY appreciate it.

Otherwise I'm just gonna stop communicating at all until it's stopped 😑 😕 🤐

[HEH]

Hey, you finally learned emojis! ヽ(o＾▽＾o)ノ

It's a little excessive, but I think it's a good look!

[droptheious]

[Rleuctantly, Varian switches it to video. He looks so annoyed. ]

Hey, Eve [a little 👋 floats above his head, he points at it, expression flat ] like that, it's really embarrassing. [A ☹️ 😩 float over his head in quick succession. ]

[droptheious]

😠 It's not FUNNY, Jun- it doesn't count as "learning" 🎓 them if I don't actively TRY to learn them 🤦‍♂️

😒I don't want this- I HATE this 😡 it's only a "good look" for people who can't use WORDS, and I CAN 😩

[whiteshroud]

I don't know, I'd say it's pretty funny.

Just think of it as adding another layer to your communication! Maybe you'll grow to like them.

[droptheious]

💀 💀 💀 No.

😣 I. 😤 Won't. 😤

This isn't communicating 📢 it's just 🛸 nonsense pictures! 🫤

[playtag]

[Oh, they're switching to video. Let her do the same.]

[Eve looks modestly transfixed by the floating icons around Varian's head.]

Whoa... [Fascinating.] Do only the Libra users see them?

[droptheious]

[ The little emojis flash up again as Varian blinks: ]

[🤨 ] Oh... actually... I don't know [ 🤔 ] but I am SOOOO not going outside to find out [ 😕 ].

[playtag]

Why not?

[ornamentals]

well, that won't do.
people would miss you if you actually became a hermit.

[droptheious]

[ 😑 ]

BECAUSE it's embarrassing!! [ 😒 ]

[droptheious]

Would they though? 😒 It's gotta be better than people looking at this nonsense all the time. 😤

[ornamentals]

Well.

I would.

[playtag]

[?]

Is it?

What if no one else can see them? Would it still be embarrassing?

[droptheious]

😧 Oh. Well... thanks for that, Buddy, that's actually kinda sweet. 🥺 I'd miss you, too ( ´･･)ﾉ(._.`)

...Oh no the stupid ones Jun does have started.

[droptheious]

[😕 ]

Eve, we live in a city, there's always someone to see it.

[🤔 ] Unless maybe there's a way to block them? What if I put a paper bag on my head?

[playtag]

Then people will stare at the paper bag.

[How would that be less embarrassing?]

[Hmm...]

I guess you could try blocking with an umbrella? It wouldn't look too out of place outdoors.

[droptheious]

[ 😫 ]

Oh nooo, you're right, they would.

[ ⊙.☉ ] You know... that might be worth a shot?

[playtag]

[They would. They both know this to be true.]

[She gives a thumbs up. Not the emoji version, since she cannot do that in video.]

Let me know how it goes if you try.
