alycia: i can't even give you shit for consistency because i'm not the most consistent myself, but you are right we are still going at it so i think that stands for something. i guess our friendship has stood the test of time and timezones. proud of us. alycia: you should add it to your list of places to visit. it's such a lovely place with the most gorgeous architecture. you know i always laugh at the fact that american's have to travel so far to go anywhere outside of the US. i guess when i traveled from the homeland it never seems that far, but the europeans definitely have travel supremacy. alycia: i was a very active child. i wanted to be the star of the show in any form that i could. alycia: if you ever want to sit out a session i'd be happy to teach her a thing or two. i haven't laced up a pair of skates in a while, but i'm sure i could still hold my own.

abel: Fair enough, lmao. I'm not the most consistent — I'll give you that. But hey, it's been pretty much two years and we're still at it, so I'd say not too bad? abel: Nice. I haven’t been to Prague, but it looks amazing. I’ll always be jealous of europeans for being able to travel so easily and over such short distances. Like… changing countries in under three hours of driving? The european dream. abel: Shit, really? I didn’t know that. You’re such a surprise egg — love that. abel: But yeah, we’ll see. Ice rinks are so fucking cold bro

little black dress. 🖤

maybe i made you find out through a random headline because you refer to it as the 'new kong movie'. put some respect on godzilla's name and include my favorite radioactive lizard too. if you want my full, honest opinion i'm still in a state of shock about it. i went toe to toe with some pretty big names for this role, and the fact that they chose me is wild. i can't spill the details just yet on what side of the team i'll be on, but i promise as soon as i can you will be the first to know. no more crappy headline news for you, it will come straight from the source.

hold up… lycia. you didn’t think to tell me you’re in the new kong movie? i have to find out through some random headline while scrolling? really? that’s how we’re doing things now? i thought we were tighter than that. i would’ve at least expected a dramatic text like, “guess who’s starring alongside a giant ape?” or something. c’mon, spill—how’d that even happen? and more importantly, are you running from the monster or fighting it? @alyvas

alycia: i feel like anyone who would give you shit given how busy you are isn't much of a friend. we are all adults which means we should be able to handle adult schedules. once you reach a certain age you can't expect your friends to drop their entire lives just to hang out. we all have responsibilities, and you have one of the biggest ones of all now. so yeah...thanks for coming to my ted talk: adulting edition. alycia: i love that. i think travel is definitely the best form of schooling. if i have kids one day i would love to home school them and just fly them around the world. teach them multiple languages, let them taste authentic food from around the world. it would be such a dream to give my children that life. shut up! i'm gonna need you to stop all of this australia slander before i express ship a huntsman to your door. 🤣 or a kangaroo telegram. alycia: listen buddy....i tried the whole epcot thing and halfway through i was so drunk i had no idea what century i was in. i can't act a fool at a kids park. alycia: i would have never guessed you were quiet and shy. nothing about you oozes that anymore, but i can see how that would bring us both to where we wanted to be. do you think your daughter is more like you, or is she more out going? alycia: auntie alycia is definitely ready for babysitting duties. just say the word and i am there. i'll have her saying 'oh naur' in no time. 🤣

abel: See? Probably why it works out. You're not giving me shit, and I ain't gonna give you shit either—just a fun friendship with bonus points, just how I like it. abel: I should. Gonna try to add a pit stop or two during my european leg of the tour. I want Aya to travel, best schooling she can attend in my opinion, so I’m gonna make sure to space out the concerts more. LMAO australia might be even worse tho… six hours of flying and I'm still in the damn country?? while in europe you would've flown three of em already abel: but let's be honest, nothing beat epcot for fast travel. have you ever tried?? abel: Now I can see that. I was the damn opposite—shy, introverted, making quiet plans for myself… and look where that got me. two opposite ways still lead us to the same path of greatness abel: Sure, you know I’d never say no to free babysitting LMAO plus that’d be a nice chance for you to finally meet her.

debnamcarey: the worst thing that could ever happen in television history. 😭 @.icygurlsaweetie

icygurlsaweetie: girl.....what happened? 👀 @DebnamCarey

i know— it should be a sin for me to be this supportive. stop, you are being so fucking cute i can't stand it. i already loved dina from the video game, but when they cast you i knew that love was going to triple. anything you touch turns to pure gold, and i'm so lucky to be able to witness first hand all the greatness you bring to this industry. i love you, you are so sweet. please! i am waiting for the day we get to work together. they are still casting for godzilla vs. kong, so have your people toss your name into the pool.

first of all—excuse ME—how dare you be this sweet and supportive? i’m blushing so hard right now i might actually have to hide under a pillow. one episode and i’ve already got you in a chokehold? i’ve peaked. my work here is done. but seriously, thank you. coming from you, this means everything. you’re such a powerhouse, and getting love from someone i admire this much is surreal. now the real question is: when are we finally going to be in something together? i’m ready whenever you are.

alycia: i have had so many people tell me that we could play sisters in a project, and i'm starting to think we should give the people what they want. we should get them on board with a 'it's what's inside part: II ' and have you play nikki's sister. i think it has potential to be the greatest sequel of all time. @jojokings

alycia: i'm actually on my way to prague to spend some time with a friend. guess you gotta base the taste of those cookies from pure memory alone. alycia: i couldn't imagine. all the props to you being able to handle a toddler with your schedule. i would be dead to the world.

abel: Nice, glad to hear. When are you making your way to me then? I’m definitely looking forward to eating those cookies. abel: I never recovered — in fact, I’m still stuck in Sydney time. It’s been fun being a night owl… especially with a toddler who wakes up at dawn, y'know. right when I feel like crashing.
