#the weirdest thing abt getting from boronia station to my hs is that its genuinely like a straight fucking road. you get to scoresby road

OK BEFORE I DESCEND INTO SCROLLING thru my dash, i had a fucking wild dream

so it started with a lot of train shenanigannery. i was on the train with my parents and with a lot of other people, someone who we definitely referred to as some kind of reaper who was actually just a manager in a black hoodie, that sort of thing. the train had an open back with no railing, very spicy. and we’re travel out of the city, so along the belgrave line. and i think we ended up getting off at ‘Bayswater North’, which is Not a station, which was an interesting experience. then i think i ended up getting back on and heading for boronia, because i was ‘going to school’

if you know what boronia station’s platforms look like, imagine the platforms but level with everything else around them, no central building. almost like a tram stop in the middle of a road. and i get out and immediately have No fucking Idea where im going. i briefly bolt off in the wrong direction then slowly come back up the hill to go the right way. and as i do, i bump into a fuck ton of people i know. some are highschool kids, like Adam and Tom and a guy who i Know i know from hs but dont know the name of, and some are primary school kids, like Dylan. he was there for a bit. and even though theyre all wearing the primary school uniform, i join up with them because we have the same common destination and are equally confused.

as we walk down the VERY long route to highschool, i guess we started recording like, a vlog sorta thing? or a podcast, i guess, but with video. like it was basically just a recording of us walking down the road chatting shit which we uploaded to yt. it was a show called, afaik, ‘Jerr and Rhym’, ostensibly named for the two main hosts. Now given the 3 people who stuck around the longest were named like, Adam Tom and Nick or smth, that was weird. But in universe J+R had evidently started before I’d arrived to gatecrash, because they had a cute animated intro made by adam. When i joined, they added a second bit to the intro, apparently made by me, which introduced me as ‘Jacqueline’. i had green hair and honestly looked like susie from deltarune, dunno tf why. and from my intro it seemed to be vaguely pokemon based, the whole show.

what followed was an interminable amount of nonsense. we went off into a significant tangent about superheroes because part way down the FIRST road, i said “We’re going to Sky-” and then stopped to correct myself, and then had to explain why i’d almost called our highschool ‘sky’, causing me to run through the reasons like ‘i meant university? wait that makes no sense’ to landing on ‘I think i meant Sky High, for some reason’. So we ended up devoting like an entire episode of J+R to talking about superheroes and magic powers. The one i suggested for myself was the ability to make replicas that only lasted for a little bit. And I was clearly being EXTREMELY uncreative, because my examples of this power in action involved pretending i had finished an assignment by submitting a replica of an art piece, which then led my imagination to conjure a scenario wherein i’d submitted a replica and it had been stuck to the floor, so in order to replace it with the ACTUAL art, i had to sneak into the gallery, scrap off the blue tape over top, put the art down, and then put new tape on. I got caught part way through and then used my Executive Authority as ‘the bitch having the dream’ to force exit the scenario and go ‘maybe i need to workshop that some more’

even though walking to hs was only meant to take like half an hour to maybe an hour, i think we recorded like 7 episodes, which were either 15 or 30 minutes each. we had a lot of content. and trust me, from boronia station to my hs is like 30 mins tops if youre walking, like a buffoon :P

the dream basically ended on an episode which was actually about pokemon, wherein the kid whose name I don’t know (we’ll call him Kyle) got a pokemon with a huge eye stuck on his head for a second? and by ‘stuck on his head’ i mean his head like, went into the pupil of the eye. was kinda gross now i word it like that. but it was less gross and more like he was the bubble dipper in those lil bottles of bubble mixture. it sorta made him contact high or smth and also kinda fucked up his vision for a bit, so at one point we vacuum sealed a glass box to his head, bc apparently that would help? he broke it, and then we ended up filming a little bit in a bush behind someones house about how his eyes changed, which was basically us shooting bits back in time? so it starts with him post eyes, then a clip of him Mid Eyes, a clip of like, a day before eyes, and then a clip labelled like ‘3 years ago’ where he nursed a glass and said he drank ‘3 shots a day’ before Tom burst out laughing and we ended up just rolling around the floor.

we never did get to school. but it was very fun.

#the weirdest thing abt getting from boronia station to my hs is that its genuinely like a straight fucking road. you get to scoresby road #and just Go South. its really not complicated. but we had to go down this long winding choppy road down this huge hill #and then take a sharp right and we were gonna go along that road for ages before taking another right to get to hs #which sounds more like i would get from boronia station to Scoresby Secondary College instead of my own hs #so if he isn't really either of these things. if he's maybe just a lil more impulsive than average. then he's just a weird demigod #(i mean its hilly but its not like. Belgrave hilly yknow)
