“so julian – that’s my ex – kept insisting that he and rafe were just friends, but… you know how that goes. my simsta-following all think he was too old for me, anyway. they’re kind of right.” 

“oh yeah. sometimes they give out ship names and everything. but my fanbase wasn’t actually a huge fan of julian from the start. he was a professor and i was his ta, so we were kind of secret for a bit and…” kit trailed off, shaking his head. “anyway. i had to get out of his place asap after he moved rafe in and i found out they were hooking up behind my back.”

“that sucks,” nate commiserated. 

“yeah. what about you? how was your last break-up?” kit promised himself that he wasn’t fishing for information about “straight” nate’s romantic life. he was just being friendly…

nate shook his head. “no break-ups.”

which totally didn’t make any sense. “…what… like, ever?”
