Spoilers

A text thread, more or less verbatim, from the worst twenty minutes of my friendship with Dee.

I want to explain what happened before I get to the messages, because the messages don't look good for me. Dee and I have watched the show together, remotely, since it started. She's in Perth, I'm in Bristol, we press play at the same moment and message through it. Eight-hour time difference, so it's her Sunday morning and my Saturday night, and it's worked for four years. This week she said she'd be late. Something with her sister. "Start without me, I'll catch up, DON'T TELL ME ANYTHING." Reader, I told her something. Me, 21:47: omg Me, 21:47: omg omg Dee, 21:48: DON'T Me, 21:48: I'm not saying anything Dee, 21:48: You said omg three times that's saying something Me, 21:49: I'm just reacting Dee, 21:49: React quieter Me, 21:52: I can't believe they did that to him Dee, 21:52: DID WHAT TO WHO Me, 21:52: nothing Me, 21:52: sorry Me, 21:53: to no one Dee, 21:53: You've narrowed it to a him. There are three hims. You've ruined a third of the show Me, 21:54: There are four hims if you count the dog Dee, 21:54: I'm muting you Dee, 21:54: I'm not muting you but I'm thinking about it Me, 22:01: ok I've stopped. I'm not going to say anything. I'm going to watch the rest in total silence like a monk Dee, 22:02: Thank you Me, 22:14: he had a BROTHER?? Dee, 22:14: I hate you Dee, 22:14: I have never hated anyone the way I hate you right now Dee, 22:15: I have a sister I could hate and I'm choosing you Me, 22:15: I'm so sorry. I'm putting the phone in a drawer Me, 22:15: it's in the drawer Dee, 22:16: You're typing from the drawer Me, 22:16: I'm closing the drawer now That was Saturday. She watched it Sunday. She messaged me at what was 3am my time, which I think was deliberate. Dee, 03:12: The brother thing was good actually Dee, 03:12: Would have been better if I hadn't known Dee, 03:13: But it was good Dee, 03:13: Same time next week. You're not allowed to start first ever again. I'm going to be twenty minutes late on purpose and you're going to sit there in the dark like a dog waiting for its owner Me, 07:40: fair Me, 07:40: also I think the dog knows something Dee, 07:41: DON'T

How hot is it?
