[1/2] I mean, you're working in the service industry (?) so payment's fair...
[2/2] Just making sure, man. I've never had a friend who does this for money and I certainly don't get texts from people about failed sex, much less in detail. It's fine, just...surprising
[1/2] I guess that's one way of looking at it, too... (My mom used to give me shit for under-charging too.) I don't feel ripped off though. I always set my own price, and I only change it when I want to. I don't usually have girls trying to trick me.
[2/2] Haha, really? It was kinda common where I'm from, I guess? But I also lived with people on the bottom of the social barrel. I don't think bad about myself 'cause of this job, but I also know that there's not a lot of rich hookers, guy OR gal. Anyway, uh, I can stop if it's too weird. To me it's just a fact of making money, and it comes with some seriously hilarious and-or touching stories. I like sharing with you, I guess.
do you hear that? it's the sound of morgan's mind shattering into a million pieces
[1/2] (Your...mom...what??) NO MAN I'M SORRY I'M STILL STUCK ON YOUR MOM HERE
[2/2] Hah, I mean...I guess that depends on your clientele...
But no it's fine, perhaps it's good that I know what's going on. It's not like you have...your mother, or ANYONE else that you're close to. I mean, I know what it's like to not have someone to share life's daily oddities with.
'excuse me police, this woman is dead already but you need to arrest her right now immediately'
[1/2] Oh wow that must've sounded awful. I think I threw up in my mouth. No, I mean I started doing this side business all on my own, but word gets around fast, especially when you're using tents on the property at first. Someone told my mom and she gave me a long lecture about it, but she said it was okay if I kept doing it, so long as I wasn't stupid about anything.
You know, she actually went to a local brothel and asked what they charged, and how they kept their girls safe when they took clients to their homes? She had me calling someone at home to check in after each session on a pay phone before I was even allowed to head back, there always had to be at least one person who knew where I was going and what time... She was smart, probably kept me from getting killed by a jealous husband or boyfriend. I wouldn't have thought of half the shit she did.
[2/2] Yeah, that's why I wanted to share. I like talking with you. Feel free to tell me weird shit going on with you, I'll forgive you if your life is more boring than mine.

'my life's not that exciting' says the guy who can see ghosts and exorcises demons.....
[1/2] Okay, thank fucking gods, cuz I was about to be really confused, since you talk so well about your mother. But...seriously, she sounds even more like a saint than you've depicted of her before. I don't know any moms who would be that okay with their kid doing that, and getting involved to keep her son safe. I'm pretty damn impressed.
[2/2] Yeah, well, can't say my sex life is very colorful at all... But I mean I'd tell you if a chupacabra showed up in the apartment building. For your safety, primarily. I don't think I have many exciting stories to tell, honestly...
stop humblebragging about your ghostbustin' life, morgan
[1/3] Oh my god. Oh my GOD. No, my mom would never hurt me like that. Holy shit.
[2/3] Using a separate text to wipe it clean from all that... Yeah, my mom was an amazing woman. We're an open-minded bunch compared to most, you gotta be when you're just a group of everyone else's societal cast-offs, but she was something else.
[3/3] Well I don't need to hear about your sex life specifically, I'm not a pervert, Morgan. (Do you HAVE sex? I thought you said you only have sex when you're dating? Did you get a girl?) You're almost nothing EXCEPT exciting stories. You're a medium who talks to ghosts, knows when people are going to die, and gets flashes of the future. I'm pretty sure that's what most people call exciting. That's prime time TV stuff.
[1/2] I think I kinda get that. Not to your extent, but.
[2/2] (Uh, not currently, no. About the last part.) Well now YOU'RE making it sound exciting. Huh, I guess it just doesn't seem that special when you've been doing it for over ten years... That and there's been a lull in the whole exorcism thing lately. Which is good, honestly. I never look forward to those.

YEAH YOU KNOW WHAT MORGAN CASUALLY DISCUSSES WITH HIS MOM? WITCHCRAFT
[2/2] Just making sure, man. I've never had a friend who does this for money and I certainly don't get texts from people about failed sex, much less in detail. It's fine, just...surprising
