This story is based off of actual conversations my friends and I have in our group chat.
It all started with a simple crush. Maybe this all would have been avoided if said crush wasn't sitting at the same table as me and all the friends I wanted to...
Cholesterol: What was your favorite show as a kid?
Light of my Life: idk if I had a favorite one, but I distinctly remember watching a show called Wishbone
Cholesterol: What was it about???
Light of my Life: idk I think there was a time-traveling dog? I think its name was Spot?

Cholesterol: The dog's name was Wishbone, you idiot
Light of my Life: That makes more sense lol
Light of my Life: And I think I thought that there was time-travel because some of the books he would daydream about would take place in the past
Cholesterol: Sounds like a very interesting show
Light of my Life: Yeah lol one of the episodes was about the Civil War I think
Cholesterol: Who do you think would win the Texas Civil War?
Light of my Life: ...Is it North Texas vs South Texas or East Texas vs West Texas?
Cholesterol: It depends on why we're fighting in the first place
Light of my Life: Well, if we did East vs West we could make the divide at the panhandle
Cholesterol: Wouldn't the East be overpowered though? They'd have like all of the major cities
Light of my Life: Yeah, they'd have the metroplex, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, Gavelston
Cholesterol: And they'd probably have Lousiana as an ally, and that would mean that they would have access to New Orleans, which is a major port city
Light of my Life: Or, I don't know, they could use any Texas city that borders the Gulf of Mexico
Cholesterol: Where's the fun in that?
Light of my Life: And you called me dumb
Cholesterol: I feel like it would make more sense to have it be North vs South
Light of my Life: And, if we did that, they could be fighting about the South wanting to be part of Mexico again and the North wanting to stay with the US!
Cholesterol: Brilliant!
Cholesterol: Would we get the metroplex though? We can't win without it
Light of my Life: Idk I don't think we will

Cholesterol: I feel like Dallas is a lot farther north than either of us thought lol
Light of my Life: So we would get the metroplex
Light of my Life: But the South would get almost all of the major cities
Cholesterol: But we would have the support of the US
Cholesterol: Besides, the North won the Civil War
Light of my Life: So this is going to be a Civil War reenactment lol
Light of my Life: You should lead the North and I can lead the South and we'll see who wins!
Cholesterol: If this is like the US Civil War, then who's going to be your Stonewall Jackson?
Light of my Life: Greta Thunberg
Cholesterol: ...
Cholesterol: I thought you were going to say Sharalyn or someone we actually know
Light of my Life: Excuse you, Greta Thunberg is an icon
Cholesterol: I'm not saying she isn't! I just didn't think she would be your choice!
Light of my Life: She was the first person I thought of lol
Light of my Life: Oh my God
Light of my Life: Stonewall Greta
Cholesterol: That is the most perfect thing I have ever heard
Cholesterol: sToNeWaLl GrEtA
Light of my Life: It's iconic.
Cholesterol: I can't stop laughing lmao
Light of my Life: Why is this so funny lol
Cholesterol: Maybe because it's 4:30 in the morning lol
