: something good

[theo lovett]

t h e o . I'd be there in a heartbeat, if it weren't for my stupid job and my stupid twin.

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y You can bring your stupid twin! The hot tub would be good for his pain.

[theo lovett]

t h e o . You try convincing him!

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y I don't know him. Is it a twin thing? Is that why you can't leave him?

[theo lovett]

t h e o . Sorta. Lots of things, he's my bestie, I try and help him mitigate the pain, I keep an eye on him. I'm a pain in his ass but we're really all each other has so he's stuck with me.

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y You're a really good brother, I hope you know that. I'll have you guys over at the end of this.

[theo lovett]

t h e o . I'm a very standard brother! Are you close to any of yours?

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y We are at war whenever we're with each other. Everyone is trying to get on dad's good side, but everyone is also like.. fuck dad. I swear he's going to get assassinated by Robbie.

[theo lovett]

t h e o . Sounds dysfunctional.

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y Yeah, still missed it at Christmas though. What about your parents? Do you like talking about them?

[theo lovett]

t h e o . You didn't go home? Where even is home for you? I'm pretty desensitized to it. I just feel bad because all my memories of them are perfect, and it feels dishonest, but I guess my brain doesn't want me to remember anything but their greatest hits.

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y LA. But my dad thinks he's a cowboy and we have a ranch in Montana where we usually spend Christmas at. I didn't go. Flying seems irresponsible. That's okay to think of them that way. You can't fix the bad.

[theo lovett]

t h e o . That sounds ideal. Even flying private? I'm the same, wish I could have gone home but it's too far. What about your parents?

[dolly weathers]

d o l l y It's just selfish when people are dying. Alaska looks really pretty, I bet you miss it so much. My dad's baby is his business, but we all spend a great deal of time together. It's good for press. My mum lives in England. I haven't seen her for a few years, we chat on holidays.

[theo lovett]

t h e o . This is probably a hella weird question, but are they warm? Like, do you think of them when you're looking for comfort?
