They wrote to Landon again.
Ash: z is taking me to the mosh!!!!
Landon/Lena: OMG! So excited for you!
Ash: do you think he’s going to hate it? what if it’s too weird for him?
Landon/Lena: I think he’s going to love it because you love it.
Landon/Lena: Did you know that when Z was in college, he spent a couple years going to different religious services every weekend?
Ash: no… why are you telling me this?
Landon/Lena: That’s how daddy explained Zhong’s interest in kink to me. He’s like a sociologist.
Landon/Lena: He thinks that all human behavior is bizarre, but that kink isn’t any weirder than anything else.
Landon/Lena: At least that’s what Daddy says.
Ash: omg. that’s exactly it.
Landon/Lena: Z’s already texting daddy for advice.
Landon/Lena: And he’s flipping out because you didn’t tell him yes yet.
Ash: so i should tell him yes?
Landon sent back an eye-roll emoji.
Landon/Lena: Obviously. You’re going to get more treats than any other pup.
Ash: i know!
Ash: ok, gonna tell him now.
When they switched back to Zhong’s message thread, he’d replied again.
Zhong: Only if you want to, of course.
Zhong: I probably won’t know what I’m doing.
Zhong: We could just hang out if you’d rather.
Was he having second thoughts?
Ash: sorry, talking to landon
Ash: i’d like that
Ash: a lot
Ash: it’s ok if you don’t want to, though
Ash: you have to get a background check and pay to join escape.
Ash: i could get you a guest pass though.
Ash: they still need your info. probably not worth it.
