[After fiddling with the gear for a bit and checking the network, it seemed like it's impossible to tell who is who... so now seemed like a prime time to ask without embarrassment. Now to just keep it short in case the text glitches and gibberishes the question...]

someone explain what 'the talk' is

[Someone should answer, people are always answering questions or being nosy.]

[She's jealous.]

thanks for telling me what a crush was back then. he might say i should have figured it out on my own, but we're at a good place sooner than later

[machinamonkey]

I'm glad. you deserve someone sweet! even if Karkat is kinda grumpy

[filtered]

[shadowdive]

he can be sweet.

[filtered]

[machinamonkey]

a sweet grump!

[filtered]

[shadowdive]

when he's grumpy, he's being defensive.

[filtered]

[machinamonkey]

or he's talking to people he doesn't know, because he's really grumpy to a lot of people.

[filtered]

[shadowdive]

no, he's grumpy to his best friend who is here too. they argue, but it's all in fun, like when we pick at each other.

[filtered]

[machinamonkey]

oooh. well, you'd know best!

[filtered]

[shadowdive]

so you spoke with him before?

[filtered]

[machinamonkey]

once or twice! he's my friend's crush-now-boyfriend. I had to check him out!

[filtered]

[shadowdive]

[Kind of chuckling on his end.] thoughts?

[filtered]

[machinamonkey]

grumpy, but he cares

[filtered]

[shadowdive]

cares a lot. he likes watching romantic comedy movies, if that tells you anything.

[filtered]

[machinamonkey]

no idea what those are

the plot of the story is following two people as they try to get into a relationship or marriage, but things try to pull them apart and are funny for the viewers. one was that a girl had amnesia problems and forgot everything that happened after a day, so she relived that one day over and over. the guy dated her a few times but since she would forget, he'd be stuck having to "start over" every time. he showed her how to record her memories on a video tape, so she watches it first thing every morning, and continues her life.
