Confusion makes the most sense. We're obviously confused because he's acting so different. If he ruins his reputation and doesn't remember why after it wears off, that'd be even worse.
Yea! [ they're getting this figured out! Cashmere feels pretty good about that. ] That makes sense. Everyone gets confused and frustrated, and Confusion benefits from it.
Stopping Confusion won't be possible. But can we stop Connor from doing more damage to himself?
Yeah. At this point, I'm considering taking away his phone. Though he already kind of hates me for the way I acted when he tried to get me to sleep with him...
[ Which is a great deal different from simply hitting on Matt but, y'know. ]
Think you could work anything out? I don't want to have to actually pick a fight with him if I can help it.
I can try to take away his phone. Or pick a fight. Taking his phone will probably start a fight. [ what's the worst he could do? kill her? ha ha. ] He'll get over it.
[ you can't drop hints like that and not give deets, Matt. ] How did you react?
Not... well. [ Admittedly. He feels kind of bad about it? He pauses, trying to get his words together. ] I just. I'm not -- I'm not great at the whole relationship thing. And Connor deserves someone who can give him that.
[ "It's not you, it's me," in other words. ]
I could try and take his phone when he's sleeping, but I think either way he's going to end up picking a fight with either of us.
I can see how that would be hard to hear. I didn't know you were into [ men ] him at all. Not that you did something wrong. Sleeping with friends is complicated.
[ it's fine. it's fine it's fine it's fine. ]
I'll ask him to hang out, make up some story about needing to borrow his phone and then run off with it. He can't out run me. If we can get the battery or something , I can take part of the phone and give the other half to you. Then he'd have to go through both of us

That sounds like a good plan. I know he might be angry now, but when this wears off, he'll appreciate it.
[ He sighs. ]
Wish there was more we could do.
