Patrick: Never?

Imogen: Okay, I have, but never on purpose, on my own, for stimulation. A friend showed me in high school. And there was this college party my freshman year. A bonding experience for all the girls on my floor watching some over-the-top, high-production value stuff.

Patrick: Did you like it?

Imogen: No. It was fake. And weird. Aggressive. Do you watch a lot?

Patrick: When I was younger.

I didn't always see through the bullshit. That's another thing I lost, another thing I'm glad I lost, but it's strange. I barely recognize the guy I used to be.

Patrick: Not much, anymore. I got tired of how fake it felt.

Imogen: Aren't there amateur videos?

Patrick: A lot of those are fake too.

Imogen: Manufactured authenticity?

Patrick: Exactly.

Imogen: Is there anything real?

It's a good question.

Patrick: If you look hard enough. Do you want me to find something for you?

Imogen: You'll suffer through a bunch of porn for me?

Patrick: That's how much I like you.

Imogen: What a sweet fuck buddy.

Patrick: I'm generous that way.

She sends an eggplant emoji.

Then a water drop emoji.

She's funny. She really is.

Imogen: I prefer to use my imagination.

Patrick: Oh?

Imogen: Or a book. I don't sit there, reading with one hand, but I find inspiration and then…

Patrick: Go on.

Imogen: I touch myself.

Patrick: When was the last time?

Imogen: Last night.

Patrick: What did you think about?

Imogen: I replayed our tryst in the bar.
