PERSUASION ISNT TRICKERY ITS JUST ME BEING SUAVE

i can think of more productive exercises with "powerful mental connections" and "coordination" that you could've gone with ;-)

["suave"]

[Is a good thing Ray decided to text Venkman instead of doing a video chat because his face is now beet red.]

OH MY GOD VENKMAN I WASN'T ABOUT TO SUGGEST THAT TO EGON!!

[At least not at first and definitely not without Egon's expressed consent.

But he is never telling Venkman that he would have resorted to that if it came down to it.]

;-)

wait then again you WERE both in each others bodies

ok nevermind that might be a little too weird

and suggesting that to egon might literally have killed him on the spot

Exactly!

I don't think we could have taken our clothes off before either of us decided to give up on the idea.

Not that I have bad self esteem but it would practically be like having sex with your clone.

i feel like this is weirder than sex with your clone

if youre down to fuck your clone then your clone feels the same way. sure itd be weird to fuck your own self but at least youre you and you know the other party is into it

we're talking about you in egons body fucking egon in your body. first of all theres the whole "youre not even in your own body" aspect second of all its egon

But what if my clone is evil, Pete?

What if he seems like he's down for it at first but then he stabs me the moment my back's turned???

[He may or may not be joking.]

But ugh you're right. It would feel like the Worst variation of an out of body experience. Dancing was at least fun with how awkward it was.

maybe that just means youre into knifeplay and you didnt know it

or hate sex

[Ray may have been joking but Venkman is taking the question at face value.]

Pete I don't think knifeplay means that you're into literal backstabbing.

At least I'm pretty sure it's not??

i dunno man some people get hardcore with their kinks

you havent truly given up on seeing the best in people until you find out one of your frat brothers choked himself til he passed out for the third time in a month and you have to step over him to get to your bed

THE THIRD TIME?!

Peter everything I hear about your fraternity makes me feel glad I decided not to join one.

the third time. that i know of.

trust me its for the best that you didnt. it was fun sometimes but i really only stuck with it for the ample opportunities to "prove" i was a totally straight and normal jock type

I can't believe you'd rather be seen as someone who associates with people who choke themselves than someone who's not straight

[He's joking he Gets You.]

its a sacrifice one must make to avoid future paparazzi issues in life

which turned out to actually be something i had to worry about so hey! sometimes suffering with people into auto-erotic asphyxiation is the right decision

even if it really, really doesn't feel like it at the time

And on the bright side at least you spent the rest of undergrad and grad school with me and Egon!!

And last time I checked, neither of us are into auto-erotic asphyxiation :-)

thank god for that

hey you never know with egon

who knows what freaky shit he hides beneath that blank mask

[it is a crying shame that neither of them know about mood slime yet]

In that case, maybe I should have suggested sex.

[Ray please stop.]

yea who knows. maybe he WOULD have been into having sex with you in his body.

... or me in your body?? no ok that might be too much

or not. i'll be honest after all these years i still dont know for sure where his limits are i just go along with whatever hes up for

... plus this is another dimension's egon

maybe hes kinkier

[This conversation was about dancing at first]

That's always possible.

I wonder if there's a way to find that out without making things really awkward?

oh dont worry i'll be there in a couple weeks

i can figure it out ;-)

[Venkman has never before been stopped by awkwardness and he sure as fuck won't be stopped now.]

Why am I suddenly terrified?

:-/ hey come on i know what im doing

[That is a lie.]

... in all seriousness though i cant wait to see you two again. not just in like a sexual way but

man

do you know how long it's BEEN since ive been away from both of you for longer than like, a week? even if egon was at like a conference or something you'd still be with me, or if you were both in the hospital after an experiment blew up in your faces i'd still get to visit you both every day... and with winston gone, too-

sure, i got to see you both with the bodyswap thing, but that's not the same

[Congratulations, Ray received Venkman's Genuine, Non-Deflected Emotions as he finally puts into words just how goddamn lonely he's been this whole time.]

[And all he had to do was talk about Egon's kinks...]

Yeah, it has been too long.

This might sound weird, but I started missing you so much that when I woke up in your body last Monday, I ended up spending most of the time just hugging myself, or yourself, because I missed you so badly.

I love this dimension a lot but it's really hard not to feel lonely sometimes, even with Egon.

[...]

And I'm sorry. Both for not joining you on that cruise and spending so long in Violet City.

aw

you're adorable, Ray

its not weird its cute. i spent more time than I'd like to admit just kind of looking at you in the mirror

yea. i love this version of Egon- it's Egon after all, even if he's not our world's Egon- but I feel kind of... guilty? for it sometimes. i dunno.

and thats not your fault. i know i teased you both about that before but you had no idea i was here when you started going down the route and vice versa. I'm just glad you both had each other.

and don't worry about that either. what matters is that i'll be seeing you both again soon, right?

You think I'm adorable?

[They've been together for years.]

No I get that. I'm sure our Egon understands; I bet you if anything he feels guilty himself for dating two alternate versions of his partners than one.

Maybe I should take up smoking to make him feel more at home?

[Ok that's actually a joke.]

And we should hopefully be in Goldenrod this time next week! Now that we're back in our own bodies, we plan on heading out tomorrow!

We have to prep first, however. Thank goodness we found out about self heating coffee and hot chocolate! It's going to make this week long hike a lot nicer.

ray stantz you're the most adorable man ive ever known and you know it

yeah i. guess

[Theres a pause as Venkman debates whether or not he actually wants to go into this. In the end, he decides, fuck it, he probably should. Ray will understand, right? And so, Ray gets to hear about just a small portion of what Venkman's been worried about these past few weeks:]

i dunno. that bit about what his version of peter venkman was like is still eating at me.

like, hell, the way he described him made it sound like he was that movie version of me?
and its bad enough that some people really think im like that back home because of that movie, but that this egon might actually have known a version of myself that acts like that?

i guess im worried about whether or not i could ever turn into that kind of person. and whether or not this egon thinks im that kind of person already? ... or that i already am like that and just dont realize it.

i know i should probably talk to him about this but. i dunno. egons bad enough with emotional junk like this.

[i will only write sadstuck for ghostbusters if it means it can involve something stupid like venkmans undying fury towards bill murray. thank u]

anyway. please for the love of god dress warm and stay safe out there when youre on the road again. dont die.
