yeah obviously but that's not a name name
not unless you're that kid from stranger things

[ wait, what... that's totally how it went in the show too, or at least the one season he watched. haha? funny coincidence? ]
my friends call me el too, but I'm pretty sure you're not also me cause I'm Eliot and not eleven
is that your whole name? just "eleven"?

[ huh. okay. so. she's. got another name too, it shares a last name with that cop in the show... probably still coincidence? maybe he should have watched season 2 at some point? not that netflix was really available in fillory, but.
the lack of more technological understanding is kind of convincing, though. assuming it's not some kind of elaborate prank. but even q doesn't know that eliot's seen stranger things, so this would just be an extra level of weird. ]
because that's the name I picked to use
mine's a reference to a movie [ which is maybe why he asked if "eleven" was one too. ]

my name is not like that
what movie
i like tv
[It's strange to meet another El, even though it's an Eliot, not an Eleven. Even though he thinks her name is not a real name, and that stings. But it's alright.]

[ he pictures a gauge in his head that's slowly tipping more toward "probably really that character" and further away from "elaborate prank". he did meet javert too, after all. and javert turned out to be so very real, and so very different at the same time. it's a bit weird to think about, even knowing that worlds can span in such a way already, but. well, even if the rest of the show didn't really jive with his tastes, he did like eleven. she had guts, and eliot can always appreciate that. ]
it was a movie theater movie, not a tv movie
it's called Mean Girls

oh. that doesn't sound fair. why aren't you allowed?
and I don't. I don't want to give spoilers in case you ever get the chance to watch it, but it's more about how being mean isn't worth it.

you should always make your own rules
no one will understand you better than yourself
and I agree
my best friend is a mouth breather though
not really his fault he's just
really goofy
he drools on the couch whenever he sleeps there and I have to clean it up
but again not his fault

[She starts writing: my dad - and then she frowns, and deletes it. She starts again: hop- and then she frowns harder, and deletes it.
it takes a moment to answer. she had to wait for her vision to stop blurring.]
i understand
my dad drools sometimes
when he sleeps on his chair or the couch
i love him anyway

[ it's strange how she's not actually the first to say that, and even if he does feel there's probably at least some truth to the statement, it feels as real as the smile he wears half the time. if margo were here, she'd probably chastise him for thinking otherwise, burying away whatever good there really is with the usual pomp and circumstance. she isn't though, and eliot feels worse for it, knowing that even though he knows what she would say, the reassurance loses all meaning unless he hears it from her himself.
no, he could never be that, could he? he'd even managed to fuck up the one thing the great cock said he'd been born to do, condemned his friends to the monster's games for nearly a year. that's not wise at all. ]
I don't know that I am.
I've just been through a lot.
thank you though el
you're very sweet

we need to help each other here
nice words help
[And she doesn't ask him what he went through - she knows, better than most, that prying doesn't feel good, that pain sits differently in everyone's ribcage.]

[ it's clear from that alone that she must be young-hearted, at the least if not simply young. if she really is eleven from the show he'd seen, then it tracks, and he can't help but feel protective, at least for her sake. the world isn't always such a caring or forgiving place. that's how he'd learned at all, and it had been the greatest struggle to push through everything the universe had brought against him, in every single world he had faced.
help is always good. kind words too.
if only it had been so simple. ]
we'll need to if we want to survive
you should take care though
not everyone here is who they seem to be
myself included
protect yourself first, won't you?

do you mean bad people

[She's had to deal with both. Her instinct is to be wary - of strangers especially. At the same time, moving past that suspicion has gained her... friends, here. Unexpectedly.
Nothing will ever replace everyone she's lost - or everyone who's lost her, as it were. But there's been comfort in the people she's met.]

Hello Eleven,
Are you quite alright? I am very sorry about the ferry, I assure you that hadn't gone as anticipated and I understand if you are upset, I just need to know if you are hurt.
I am so sorry you won't get to go home just yet.
Yours,
Aziraphale.

Dear Eleven,
It's just a greeting. I can use sincerely if you prefer!
I am happy to hear you are doing alright but please let me know if your ankle gets worse.
We will just have to come up with better plans. Thank you kindly. Please do contact me if you are in need of anything, this place is very strange and it can take time to adjust.
Hope you are well.
Sincerely,
Aziraphale.
