literally headed to Tokyo in the am. If my time is a fraction as fun as this I'd be super super happy. Lovely work

Really? I'm still in Tokyo, Will. DM me and I'll meet you irl even though I don't actually exist

polite is cool.

that was fun. such fun!

it reminded me of something on a train once.

Well done on this. impossible not to chuckle and damn he did look cool.

although i think the card with his face on was a wanky touch

Stephen Prime's avatar

Yeah maybe he wasn't as cool as I thought he was

Loved it. Voted.

Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏

It took just as long to to find the business card as it did to write the article.

Great story. Thx

Thank you, good sir. I hope it inspires you to wear sunglasses even when the sun is busy flirting with the moon behind our backs.

I doubted his coolness but that photo is cold af. I like the subtextual emotional arc/ anticlimax here. Meeting him was great, didn’t fix your problems and you’d do it again

Stephen Prime's avatar

yes, thank you for noticing the subtext. there is also quite a strong homoerotic thing going on here which I am only able to talk about now because I am still a little drunk from falling off the wagon last night. don’t worry I’m not oversharing because Stephen Prime is not my real name.

Reminds me of some of the people I’ve met on flights! A natural curiosity about people goes a long way.

Stephen Prime's avatar

Yeah it's a definitely under researched group. Those who wear sunglasses with no clear reason. I'm thinking of trying it myself one day/night

Thanks 🙏🙏. I'm thinking of getting in touch with this guy after all these years. But I'm afraid that he may make me feel utterly insecure
