Who do you think Martinez was going to make captain after you guys graduated?

[ not a lot of strong contenders. omg what if he picked rachel goldman? ]

[diarists]

-- probably Rachel Goldman, god. Or Allie? Making up for Tai and everything.

[temujackie]

Everyone would freak if he made a sophomore captain. [ UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ] It definitely would have been Rachel. [ GROSS!!!!!!!!!! ]

[diarists]

He'd probably say something about shaking it up, keeping people on their toes. [strange, talking about coach martinez like he wasn't bones in the ground. he and rachel goldman had been the lucky ones, in retrospect.]

What's your damage about Rachel?

[temujackie]

It's not damage. She just pissed me off.

[diarists]

How? What'd she do? [give her the details Please she loves mess.]

[temujackie]

[ wow shauna if you love mess so much go look in a mirror!! ]

This is stupid, but every time I liked something she would fucking steal it and act like it was her thing instead. Like ooh I like hats and Oasis now. After she moved up to varsity she started wearing her hair in those little side buns but I did it first, she stole that from me and then I couldn't do it anymore without looking like I was copying her!

[ she's gonna try to reign it in before she crashes out even worse ]

I mean, god, I guess she didn't deserve to get impaled or whatever, but she kind of sucked.

[diarists]

Okay, damn. [a thoughtful pause.]

You know, nobody would've cared if you also liked Oasis. I mean, I would, but only cause they suck. And you're the only person I know who likes hats.

[another pause.] But I get it. Feeling like someone else's the better version.

[temujackie]

[ what... is this

are they talking about feelings? the fuck ]

Yeah, I... I guess I knew nobody would care, but it seemed like it mattered. At the time.

[ pausing here herself, because it feels like she is holding an active bomb and if she breathes on it weird it'll explode ]

I always thought you were. The better version, I mean.

[diarists]

[okay sometimes you play a stupid little house game and you talk about stuff whateverrrrr.]

Sure it did. It was high school. Everything matters when you're in high school.

[a pause, one that could be dangerous or thoughtful. finally:] Always? Or just when I started beating people up?

[temujackie]

Always. Even back in school.

[diarists]

Why didn't you ever say anything?

[like it would've helped. like she would've listened.]

[temujackie]

Shauna... come on, you know I couldn't.

[ or she could have, but it would have been a massive personal risk. ]

We weren't even friends. What if you were creeped out? You could have told Jackie. You could have told everybody.

[ sure, nobody cared after the crash because two girls hooking up was nothing compared to starvation, and in saltburn it doesn't matter either, but back home she was always worried about someone finding out. it would have capital r Ruined her life. ]
