[ Chloe Price - Before the Storm. ]
sure thing. thanks, bird dude.

( he seems nice. neat. )
Oh, sorry. I’ll be right back for the Tylenol. Let me know if you need anything else?
i'm chloe.

and don't "m'lady" me, dude. that's weird. who even actually says that?

[ she looks so confused right now. ]
January 28, 2026 at 3:45 PM
dude, 20? you're hella old.

[ she quietly laughs. her first hella without Rachel. wow.

she listens carefully to Max's wacky explanation. except it isn't all too wacky to her. ]

you know, i had a purple talking dinosaur tell me i was in the future? i bet that out-insanes what you said, huh?

...
— tell you something, and it's gonna sound insane, but you're gonna have to just trust me, okay? i think.. some time travel bullshit happened. total max to the future.
January 28, 2026 at 12:35 PM
[ she wipes her tears on her arm, sniffling. ]

i had.. so much i wanted to say in case i ever saw you again. a lot of angry shit.

but now.. i can't even find the words.

except..

[ she lets out a choked chuckle. whatever that could sound like. ]

you look old, Max. the hell did Seattle do to you?
— to do is scoop her into a hug and never let go, time fuckery aside. ]

i don't know how or why we're here like this, but.. i'm glad we are. it's so good to see you. and... i'm sorry i wasn't there.
January 28, 2026 at 12:11 PM
oh come on, trust you?! how am i supposed to..?!

[ her brain catches up with the conversation. ]

waitwait. did you just.. say wowser?

. . .

[ and then she breaks. tears begin to form in her eyes. she was gonna try to play it tough, but she couldn't. not now. ]

that is such a Max thing to say.
— i cant believe youre really here. you're so..

[ small. she can see traces of the chloe she'd left behind all those years ago.. yet she can also see the chloe she knows now, just beginning to peek through the surface, a weird in-between state shes not sure what to think of. fuck, her head hurts. ]
January 28, 2026 at 11:05 AM
( she's real. that's max. but she can't be.. )

you're.. back here.. no..

[ she's blinking rapidly. like it'll help her wake up. which she won't. ]

if you're really Max.. say something only Max would say.

( i'll wake up any second now. dad'll scare me or some shit. i'll wake up back alone. )
— seen her so panicked.. )

chloe, it's— it's me! really me. no bullshit, no dream.

💭 ( ..though i still feel like i'm gonna wake up at any second. )
January 28, 2026 at 9:52 AM
[ she takes her own step back once the hand is out. confusion, anger, and maybe a bit of fear are all simultaneously present on her face. her breath is shaky. eyes going from the hand to her ex-best friend's face. ]

you're not.. you're not real..
chloe, you're—..

💭 ( did.. did i fuck with time again? this is chloe, but.. not *my* chloe. she's smaller.. younger. angrier. )

is that really you..?

[ a tentative step forward is taken, hand frozen in the air like she's stuck between reaching out for her or.. rewinding. ]
January 28, 2026 at 6:15 AM
. . . . . ?

max..?

what the.. fuck?
January 28, 2026 at 1:54 AM
thought i saw max earlier.. just a dream, i guess.
January 27, 2026 at 1:44 PM
[ she's out, smoking a cigarette. ]
January 27, 2026 at 10:54 AM
i'm chloe.

and don't "m'lady" me, dude. that's weird. who even actually says that?

[ she looks so confused right now. ]
Okay! Name is berdly, what is yours m’lady!

(Dude.)
i..

...

y'know what. that would be great. thanks.
January 27, 2026 at 10:48 AM
yeah, i have that.. for now.

me and rachel plan to ditch this place. head down to LA.

we're just waiting for the right time. after that, it'll be all good. won't ever look back.
. . . might be right in that regard. that's gotta sting, man.

guess I can't complain too much about my life here. got friends which, yeah, it's nice.

. . . they at least got nice families. [ shrug. ] and you got a designated hangout place.
you'd probably hate it there, heh.

only good things are the junkyard and that old mill that Firewalk sometimes does shows at. but that got singed by the forest fire too.

i used to like it. but then my dad died and my ex-best friend left. ever since then, it's like everything's gone downhill.
January 26, 2026 at 1:52 PM
i..

...

y'know what. that would be great. thanks.
Oh? Another human, neat. Well i can go and get you a Tylenol if you like.
huh..?

i'm probably good. i think i just slept wrong-..

[ she turns to look at who she's talking to. ]

. . .

. . .

..bird. huh.

damn . . . that sucks. heh, if it were up to me, I'd give ya a trade of a life.
that sounds nice. sounds a lot better than my shithole of a town.

we have a forest.. kinda.

there was a forest fire. so its all sort of.. burnt up.

we have a nice beach, though.

one of the better places ive ever lived in. sometimes you can wander out in the forest for hours . . . and still find yourself back home.

Oh? Hello madam, do you need me to get you something for your head?
January 25, 2026 at 10:38 AM
. . . . rachel?
January 25, 2026 at 7:29 AM
January 25, 2026 at 6:50 AM
whatever, i'll just watch some shit.
January 25, 2026 at 5:37 AM
fuck. my head hurts.
January 25, 2026 at 5:31 AM
[ she's walking around now, in the dead of night. ]
January 24, 2026 at 12:34 PM
. . .

(yeah. thought so. adios, beach.)
January 24, 2026 at 12:20 PM
( . . i just wish rachel were here.

. . . hell. even max. )
January 24, 2026 at 8:00 AM
[ off she drives. to places unknown. ]
January 24, 2026 at 6:21 AM
maybe i just need to drive for a bit. clear my head.
January 24, 2026 at 6:12 AM
. . . is that . .?

no, it can't be.
