Babe, it’s a good documentary. I’m liking it too.
Oh yeah they found other stuff, just disregard all my previous thoughts…
😅🤣 That’s the fun of it. Ur just imagining some possibilities…
I think, if I had grown up in different circumstances… I probably would’ve picked archaeology to study at uni…
Noooooo… r u serious?!
Yes!
I can’t imagine… I mean. Then what? We would’ve been at Unimelb, ur older brother introduce u to me, and be like “This is my little brother he’s gonna study archeology” — ?!?!?!
Yeah? Why not? Would u have even broken up with me?!
Hmmmm…
Archaeology is very Frodo, it’s not Fernando at all…
It is. It’s the authentic me. I’m NOT Fernando.
Lol… u would’ve just been in the library all the time reading all these ancient texts…
Yes, I think I would’ve really liked it…
But ur so talented at dancing and singing…!
What if I did cinema studies and archaeology as a double degree?
I don’t know. It’s too late to ask these questions now though?! U still wouldn’t have utilised ur talent of singing and dancing though?
It’s not a talent. It’s just years and years of training. If I had grown up in completely different circumstances, I wouldn’t even be good at singing or dancing. I’d just be a normal guy with parents who encouraged me to go to uni and I’d pick archaeology and maybe cinema studies…
Why wouldn’t u have anything to do with music? That still doesn’t make sense to me.
No!!! In this reality music doesn’t have anything to do with me! Other than choosing soundtracks to movies…
But music is our love language. How would I recognise ur my Soul Mate without music? 🥺
Oh… so u think we wouldn’t have gotten together if I wasn’t musical?
Hmmmm… I don’t know…
I would still be familiar with music. I’d probably quote a lot of movies and send u playlists inspired by movie soundtracks…
Okay so ur relationship with music would be in relation to movies…
I just wouldn’t be the way that I am now. I think I would’ve been interested to study archaeology. Be a documentary film maker.
Ohhhh… I see…
Would u have broken up with me?
Umm… do u want me to say probably not?
I want u to say ur Truth.
I don’t know my Truth?! That’s not our reality?
Think about it… if I was an archaeology and cinema studies first year student when older brother introduced me…
Oh… kay… yeah… I wouldn’t have broken up with you…
You wouldn’t?
Hmmm… I probably would’ve felt like… ur gonna be a documentary film maker that’s really cool. Yeah. We would’ve stayed together…
OMG…
Lol… but this is also in the context that u weren’t Trainwreck… u were content… within urself… u didn’t have other issues. U were happy? U were happy studying archaeology and film making?
Yes. I would’ve aspired to be the James Cameron of archaeology film making…
I think ur only saying that now…
No. I’m being serious. If I had grown up in totally different circumstances that that study path was my reality…
Okay… fine… if we’re completely ignoring PARENTS and their INFLUENCE on us. Sure. We wouldn’t have broken up. I probably would’ve made more effort to stay in Melbourne. We could’ve gotten an apartment together. We would be in a very different life… maybe even have little ones running around by our late-20s?
Hmmmm…
And in my imagination of this reality u still would be WALKING RED CARPETS tho probably the more independent film festivals and stuff like that. We would be an artsy film making family…
U would still be a writer. U could walk with me on those red carpets nobody would bat an eyelid. Just an independent film maker and his wife. U could’ve worked with me on some projects. Write some of those scripts.
Okay but eventually I would still be interested in technology and maybe something to do with metaverse and games writing…
That’s cool. That’s still you.
But I wasn’t as mature… we still would’ve fought a lot because I would still say stupid things. And probably u as well!
Yeah but that kind of fighting is not a reason to break up.
Okay it’s not…
My career scared u. This one. My actual career. All the fans… the fandom. Their eyes on Fernando, it scared you…
The thought of it was very overwhelming… U didn’t actually become Fernando yet…
If I was aspiring to be a low key award winning documentary film maker u’d be perfectly comfortable with that reality…
Well… yeah…….
But I still love u NOW.
I’m coming to accept our reality NOW.
This reality.
Mmmm…. I’m gonna think about this for a while…
