Message Request

From: Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

hello rose laundry. I hear you are single now

 

Is that autocorrect or are you negging me? 

 

I do not know negging

ah I see

autocorrect

sorry rose landry 

I will never spell your name wrong again

anyway you are single, yes? 

 

Ilya Rozanov shooting his shot with me is crazy

 

why crazy

we have a lot in common

such as: very good looking

 

Seriously? 

I know about you and Shane



heart attack symptoms

Ilya has deleted a message

 

What? 

 

nothing 

someone stole my phone

what are you talking about

 

Oh, you think I don't know ball???

I didn't just start following hockey when I dated Shane

I've been a hockey fan all my life

I know who you are

You're Shane's biggest rival

You're trying to mess with him by hooking up with his ex

 

I am very competitive is true

any record hollander sets I can break

most orgasms in hour

most hours of lovemaking in night

 

Gross. No.

Besides, every man says shit like that

No reason to believe you can back it up

 

oh you need reference? 

hold please



Message Request

From: Svetlana Vetrova (sveta_weather)

 

Ilya Rozanov is excellent fuck

Top 5 of my life

 

Oh my God

Is this your sock puppet account? 

Did you make a new account to tell me you're good at sex

That's insane 

You're an insane person

 

What?

I am not puppet

Is not new account, scroll through my profile

 

…Okay

This does look like a real account

Aw, that picture of you and Rozanov is cute! You look so young! 

 

We are friends since childhood

I am also from Russia

 

When did you date? 

 

Oh wow

Rose Landry is very funny

I never hear people mention this, only your good clothes and pretty hair

 

And that I'm good at acting? 

 

And very nice body 

 

And that I'm good at acting???

 

But secretly you are great comedian

Ilya and me date

Never

He is much too emotional for me

 

Ilya Rozanov???

The hockey player 

Is too emotional

 

Yes



Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

Okay, well 

Your weird Russian friend messaged me

So thank you for that

 

did she tell you I am amazing lover 

 

Ew, I hate that word

But yes

She said you're in her top 5

 

what

is lie

svetlana is fucking liar

I am top 1

no one else can compare

 

Take it up with her, buddy 

I'm still not sleeping with you

I'm not on the rebound

 

ok 

 

Nice talking to you

 

what

we are done talking?

 

Well, I'm not letting you hit, so

 

ah

I see

rose landry does not talk to men unless she wants sex with them

rose landry sees men as only sex objects

 

Okay, that's not even close to what I said

 

of course I would enjoy sex with movie star rose landry

you would also enjoy

guarantee

but you assume this is only reason I message you

no

is hurtful

I just think, this woman has breakup

she needs friend to talk to

 

Talk shit about Shane, you mean

 

if this is what helps with your heartbreak 

 

I'm not heartbroken

 

ah so you break up with him

I have wondered

what did perfect shane hollander do to get dumped? 

was there someone else? 

 

NO

I did not dump him

It was completely mutual

 

only two people say breakup is mutual

person who was dumped and is humiliated

or person who dumped and feels guilty 

you are being nice about him so I think you feel guilty

 

Nope

 

you have broken shane hollander’s heart?

does he beg you to take him back?

 

Actual lol

Definitely not

And I'm not giving you dirt on Shane

It was mutual 

We care about each other a lot

But just as friends

 

just as friends means you will never speak to each other again I think

 

Maybe when YOU say it to a woman

I'm texting with Shane rn as a matter of fact



Emotional Support Ex

 

Hey boo

 

Hi! How's the press tour?

It's good to hear from you 

 

Did you see that we're publicly broken up? 

TMZ official

 

I did

Sorry

Are people bugging you about it? 

 

Mostly no

But guess who slid into my DMs

 

I'm not good at guessing 

 

Ilya Rozanov 

?!?!?!

 

What

What did he say

 

That he's a better lay than you

Which, to be fair…

 

Jesus Rose

 

I'm joking babe 

But like

I would love to have sex with a straight man someday

I bet it's amazing

 

No 

Not him

Not Rozanov

Please

 

Obviously I would never

He's your sworn enemy

I believe that falls under “bros before hoes”



Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

what are you saying to hollander

what does he say

 

I promised him I'm not going to hook up with you

Bros before hoes

 

shane hollander is not my bro

 

No WE'RE bros

Shane and me

You're the ho

 

wow

wow



Sveta Vetrova (sveta_weather)

 

What do you mean?

About Rozanov being too emotional

 

For me

He is the right amount emotional for someone

I love Ilya

But as friend

If you are interested you should go for it

He is secretly wonderful man

 

Secretly lol

High praise

I respect your wingman game

But no

 

Oh right

You just broke up with Shane Hollander

You are in grief period? 

Like widow

 

Mourning period? No lol

Shane and I are happier as friends

Like you and Rozanov, I guess

Maybe I should take a break from dating

I don't know

I always end up being drawn to guys who aren't right for me

I need to figure out what the hell I'm doing

So this doesn't happen again

 

Maybe so

 

I shouldn't be telling you this

For all I know you'll call TMZ 

 

Excuse you

I would never 

You know video of Ilya drunk and crying listening to Etta James? 

 

No! 

What???

 

No you don't

Because I respect fucking privacy

 

OMG

Show meeeeeee

 

Never



Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

what kind of man do you want then

if not me

and not shane hollander 

 

What???  

Why

 

want to help

find you new man

 

That is very unnecessary

 

why? you like hockey players

I know a few

 

I'm definitely done with hockey players

But thanks anyway

 

not all of us are boring like hollander

or maybe that is what you like? 

boring men with large muscles

was the sex also boring?

 

Maybe Svetlana can introduce me

 

to who

 

Someone in her top four



Emotional Support Ex

 

Ok but actually 

Do you know any single straight guys? 

I gave you Miles’s number, so

I think you owe me

Even though you never texted him

 

I know, I'm sorry

I might

Eventually

I have to figure some stuff out first

Plus, Miles would probably rather date someone who's not closeted

And constantly on the road 

 

If you're in the closet and on the road, does that mean you're in the suitcase?

 

Ha ha

 

I keep telling you

When you type it out like that it sounds sarcastic

 

That time I wanted it to sound sarcastic



Svetlana Vetrova (sveta_weather)

 

Ilya is mad at me

Something about my top four?

And blocking his cock?

 

Lol

I told him I would ask you for an introduction 

 

So no break from dating?

 

To one of the four guys

Who are better in bed than him

 

Rose Landry, comedian

There are no such guys

Ilya is best man I have ever fucked

 

Why did you say top five, then? 

 

Top five all time

Not top five men

 

Oh

So the other four are

 

…Did you fall asleep? 

Yes

Other four are women

Still want their numbers? 

 

No, sorry, I got distracted

No thank you

Sadly, I am heterosexual

 

My condolences

 

Lol

Is it really that much better?

 

Mm sometimes

I have had bad sex with women too 

But sometimes… yes

What is best sex you ever had? 

Was Shane Hollander good?

 

Leaving me on read counts as answer



Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

you are back in la?

shooting in montreal over?

 

Sorry, I’m not looking for a new stalker

Tbh I have more than I need already

 

is this joke?

do you have real stalkers

I have game in la next week

was going to say we go clubbing

but I can kill stalkers first

should not take long

 

What???

No

 

my father was police

brother too

I know about how murderers get caught

can avoid making these mistakes

 

For legal reasons please say psych

 

what

I put that in google translate

still makes no sense

 

Rozanov

I know you’re joking

but you can’t say you’re going to commit a crime in instagram DMs

 

ah

of course I am joking

my good friend rose landry understands me so well

 

Lucky for you

Anyway I haven’t had a scary stalker for a while

Just the usual weirdos

Who obsess over my every move

And take my picture through the window at the dentist

Extremely annoying but not dangerous

 

that sounds horrible

I am sorry

 

It’s all part of the job



Emotional Support Ex

 

Would you hate me

If I said

I think

Ilya Rozanov

 

What

Oh my God

Please don’t

 

Might secretly be

… nice???

 

Fuck off

Why would you say that

 

Like, he might actually be a decent guy

I made some comment about my stalkers

And he immediately offered to kill them

For legal reasons, he was joking

 

Joking about murder makes him nice?

Wait, why are you joking with Ilya to begin with

Shane deleted a message

Wait, why are you joking with Rozanov to begin with



Work Wife

 

ummm omg?

ROSE?

 

Miles?

 

Rosabella Christinabeth Landry

 

That’s so far from being my real name

 

those pics

of you and Ilya Rozanov?

first of all BITCH

you went clubbing without me?

 

I thought you were shooting out of town!

 

I am out of town but it’s called MANNERS

second of all

ANOTHER hockey player?

are you collecting them like fucking pokemon?

 

Lol absolutely not

I am not hooking up with Rozanov

Shane hates him and I promised

But I do think we’re like

Weirdly friends now???

He wanted to wingman me lol

 

yeah I bet a lot of guys gave you their number

standing next to a dude who looks like THAT

and could also kill them with his bare thighs

 

I believe the saying is “with his bare hands”

 

God forbid a woman (me) have hobbies



Emotional Support Ex

 

I saw the pictures

 

I told you babe

 

I know what you told me

I still hate them

I think he did it on purpose

Because he knew I would hate them

 

I am holding your hand so gently when I say this

Shane

I think it’s possible

That Ilya Rozanov is less obsessed with your rivalry than you are

I think he might, on occasion, do things

Without thinking about how they will look to you

 

Yeah. You’re right

Fuck, I’m an idiot

 

Shane???



Svetlana Vetrova (sveta_weather)

 

You look stunning

 

What?

 

In the pictures with Ilya

That sheer white dress

Most girls would wear white bra under

Blue was bold choice

So pretty with your hair

 

Thank you!

That’s so sweet

 

Ilya says he is on mission to find you new man

Did it work?

 

Lol

Not really

 

I am sure many men wanted to take you home

Or to bathroom with large stall

Whatever

 

Lolololol

I don’t know

No one caught my eye, I guess

 

What about Ilya?

You look hot dancing together

I know he acts like fuckboy 

But he has very loving heart

He could be good boyfriend for the right person

You could be good for him

 

No

I see what you mean, he's a sweet guy 

It was fun to hang out with him

Surprisingly fun

But there's no chemistry there

I've done “good guy with no chemistry” before

Like, way too much actually

 

Why? 

 

What? 

 

Why do you do this?

You are Rose fucking Landry

Beautiful, talented, rich, sexy

Surely you have choice of any man you want

You do not need to settle

 

Damn

I don't know

Lol

Maybe I've never been sure what I want

 

You deserve amazing chemistry 

Amazing sex

 

Can I ask you a question that's none of my business? 

 

Of course

But Ilya will be happy to measure if you ask 

 

What???

NO

Absolutely not

 

Then what is question? 

 

What makes Ilya better at sex than other guys? 

And, I guess, why are girls better?

Basically like… what makes sex good? 

Rose deleted a message 

 

You must appreciate how trustworthy I am

Because now I know for sure that Shane Hollander is terrible fuck 

And I will never tell Ilya 

Even though this would bring him so much joy

 

God, please don't. Shane would never forgive me

And I don't think he's bad 

It's just

Like I said, we had no chemistry

I kept trying to make it work 

But I don't think I even know what it feels like when it's good

Rose deleted a message

Rose deleted a message

Sorry, this is stupid

 

Not stupid 

Men are stupid 

I am sorry that Shane Hollander did not treat you like you deserve 

 

How should he have treated me? 

 

Here is what I think

Most men do not like to fuck

They want to fuck

They beg to fuck 

But as soon as you are fucking, they want it to be over

Men do not like to fuck, they like to come

 

Damn

I think you're right

 

As soon as they come, no more fucking 

Ilya loves to fuck

He would rather fuck and not come than come and not fuck

Different from most men

 

What about women?

 

Not every woman loves to fuck

 

You do, though

 

Yes

And I love women who love to fuck

I love when we can just have fun

Try things

Take our time

Like driving a Ferrari 

 

What???

 

Most men fuck like they are driving a Ferrari to the grocery store

Like errand to check off 

Instead of enjoying being in the car

Feeling how it handles 

How fast it can go

The sounds of the engine

 

I don't think I've ever done that

It sounds wonderful, though

With a guy, I mean

 

Of course



Emotional Support Ex

 

Hey, so

Weird question

How did you know you were gay?

 

You told me

Remember?

Do you have amnesia?

What year is it? 

 

Really???

I'm asking a serious question

You choose this moment to develop a sense of humor???

 

How serious?

 

I DON'T KNOW

Please just answer the question

 

I did!

It was when you broke up with me

I mean, obviously I knew I wasn't straight

On some level

But I didn't really admit it until then

 

Ok but

You had sex with men

How did you know you wanted to have sex with men?

 

Well

I met this man

And I wanted to have sex with him 

 

Shaaaaaane

 

I don't know! 

It just hit me

Honestly, I might not have even known then

But he knew

He saw it

Enough to make a move at least

And I knew enough to say yes

 

That's actually cute

 

Not really

It was stupid 

Not being gay, but being with him

 

Ohhh wait

This is the guy you broke up with? 

Right before we dated? 

He was your gay awakening? 

 

Yeah

 

So it was recently?

 

No

Well, the breakup was recent

Not breakup 

Because we never actually dated

But we stopped seeing each other recently

 

But how long did you not-date???

 

I don't know

Like

Six years

 

OMG

Shane

That's a long time, babe

 

I know

 

That's why you haven't texted Miles

 

Maybe

Yeah

I guess so

 

You're not over your six-year gay awakening situationship

 

Fuck off

How about we don't call it that

Wait

I have a better idea

Tell me why you're asking about gay awakenings

 

Gotta go

My mom is calling

 

How can an actress be a terrible liar?



Svetlana Vetrova (sveta_weather) 

 

Does Rozanov know? 

 

That he is good in bed? 

Tragically yes

Is reason he is so annoying

Not only reason, you understand

 

Lol

I mean about you

 

He also knows I am good in bed

 

Svetlana!

You are doing this on purpose! 

Does he know you like girls???

Is he cool with it

 

You can call me Sveta if you want

Yes, Ilya knows

Sometimes we pick up girls together

Sometimes we pick up girls “together” and then he remembers important plans elsewhere 

He is very considerate

 

I guess I shouldn't be surprised anymore, huh

Is that like… ethical though? 

 

We are not doing bait and switch

Just, sometimes it is safer for Ilya Rozanov to leave with two women

Than for two women to leave together

 

Oh

That makes sense

You mean in Russia? 

 

Sometimes in Russia, sometimes here

I am not famous but my father is, a little

Some people might care if I was seen with a woman

 

Wait

Vetrova

Your dad

Sveta! Is your dad Sergei Vetrov???



Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

Hey

Do you still want to wingman me?

 

yes!

we must find you amazing man

who is not shane hollander 

 

Someday I'm going to arrange for you two to hang out

When it's not hockey related

And you're actually going to love each other

I swear

 

do not forget to breathe

 

What? 

 

english idiom

like, this will never happen

so do not forget to breathe while you wait

 

Ohhh

It's “don't hold your breath”

 

ok

 

Anyway

I am maybe possibly into a friend of yours? 

And wondering if you can like… help

 

of course!

which friend? on bears?

not marleau I hope

his stamina is not good 

 

How on earth would you possibly know that???

 

we won cup in 2014, remember?

then partied three days straight

 

And on which of those days did you have unsatisfactory sex with Cliff Marleau???

 

he fucking wishes 

we had threesome

kind of

more like he started something he could not finish

so I finished for him

twice

 

Wow

And you chose to burden me with this knowledge

 

yes

my good friend rose landry

what is mine is yours 

 

You know what's funny

Sveta thinks you're ready to put aside your whorish ways

For the love of a good woman

 

sveta?

sveta says this?

sveta can be very perceptive

this is among many things we have in common

you have been talking to sveta a lot, yes?

 

Never mind

 

so about me being wingman

 

I SAID GOOD DAY

 

no you didn't?



Work Wife

 

I miss youuuu

I literally HATE this director

 

Ughhj

So sorry babe

 

the worst part is being on location with all these straight men

I cannot get laid

I cannot go dancing

I can't even be a bitch because THEY DON'T NOTICE

 

I am always here for your bitchery!

 

please tell me about whatever hockey player you are currently straddling

I need a distraction or I will perish

 

Lol

So actually

About that

 

I'M SEATED

 

Have you ever thought that maybe

I hang out with so many gay men

Because they like… remind me of something?

About myself? That I wasn't ready to look at before? 

 

oh damn

oh shit

this is THAT conversation huh

the egg finally cracked?

 

The what???

 

bb

if you are a man

I will love you and support you and spit in the drinks of anyone who stands in your way

and you will be the HOTTEST fucking twink

 

Wait

No

 

but I will not date you

because I have seen you shoot barf out of your nose after too many tequila shots

 

Hey remember when I said I would kill you if you ever mentioned that?

Also

No!!!

I am not trans 

I am not a gay man

I am still a girl

And I maybe want to have sex with a girl

 

ohhh

my bad

totally called that wrong

thought I clocked you but I was reading the clock upside down 

 

How long have you been waiting for me to come out as a dude???

 

it's funny cause MLM upside down is WLW

I'm bad at math

what year did we meet?



Emotional Support Ex

 

Miles is bored and miserable

Absolutely no pressure

But if you wanted to text him, now would be a great time

 

I'm really sorry

I don't think I'm going to text him

You didn't tell him I would, did you? 

 

No!!!

Babe

I would never ever out you

 

I know

Thank you

I would never out you either, by the way

 

I don't know what you're talking about

 

Of course not

Anyway

I might be talking to that guy again? 

 

Your six-year gay awakening situationship???

What's his name? 

 

I am not telling you

Even if you keep typing all that out every time I mention him

 

Don't tempt me, I'll fucking do it

He better be nice to you this time

 

He is

He always has been, I think

So much nicer than anyone else sees

 

Oh you're WHIPPED

 

Fuck off, I'm not

He usually just uses his hand

 

 Fucking??? Excuse me???



Svetlana Vetrova (sveta_weather) 

 

I think you missed your shot

 

What? 

I did? 

What shot?

 

With Ilya 

 

Oh

Lol

I did not have or want a shot with him

But thanks for the heads up I guess

Wait, why? 

 

He has this on and off thing

Several years now

They were off for many months, I thought maybe over for real this time

But now he is back making heart eyes at his phone

Lying in my face about it like I cannot see him

They are back on

 

Ooh, tell me more! 

Who is this girl? 

 

I do not know 

He will not tell me any details

This is how I know it is a special relationship 

He wants to keep his love for himself

 

That's so sweet

Ilya Rozanov is actually so baby

 

I showed him that message and his face turned very red

 

TAKE A PICTURE



Ilya Rozanov (rozanov81)

 

hey 

leave me out of your flirting 

you can make sveta laugh without making me the butt

 

The butt?

Oh, the butt of the joke

You kinda have to say the whole phrase or it doesn't make sense

 

ok

 

She says you have a girlfriend!!!

 

she is fucking liar

I have told you this

 

Tell me about her! 

 

no

leave me alone

send sveta titty pic so she leaves me alone too 

 

What???

No

Do you think she would like that? 

 

oh my god you are both so boring

please fuck

I will buy you plane ticket to Boston

 

I can afford a plane ticket! 

 

ok

so

 

Look 

Ilya

Do not be a dick about this

Can you please promise???

 

I am in good mood so

maybe

 

I've never had sex with a woman

And Svetlana is experienced

I think she flirts with me, but

I'm so scared I'm going to embarrass myself

 

why does this sound so familiar 

just tell her

you think you will turn her off? 

beautiful woman saying I want you so bad, please teach me exactly how to fuck you?

you think sveta will not like this? 

please

stop worrying 

you like each other

you do not have to impress her

 

Wow

That's actually super helpful

Thank you

 

you ask for my advice then get surprised when it is good? 

 

What if I told Shane what a sweetheart you really are 

 

he would not believe you

no one will ever believe you



Svetlana Vetrova (sveta_weather)

 

[Image attached] 

Do you like this shirt? 

 

What shirt?

There is no shirt in this picture

Only cleavage

I like the cleavage though

 

Lol

Scroll down! 

There's a shirt below the cleavage

 

Mm

Barely

More like a ribbon, I think

 

You don't like it?

You said I looked pretty in blue

 

You do

So pretty

You picked out this pretty ribbon for me? 

Tied around your lovely body like present wrapping? 

 

Maybe

 

I want to untie it

 

You do? 

 

Would you let me? 

 

Yes

Of course

Sveta

I'd let you do a lot of things

 

Pretty Rose 

Tell me all of them

Please

 

Lol

I don't know where to start

You know I've never done this before, right? 

With a woman

 

I know

It's okay

It's good

We are not driving to the grocery store, remember 

You do not need to know directions

 

Okay

I remember

Ilya says I should come to Boston

 

You should

Bring that shirt

Bring maybe extra shirts

This one looks like it will tear very easily

 

Sveta!!!

I will

 

 Send me more pictures

 

Are you still with Ilya? 

 

He is completely distracted

Looking at his phone with tongue hanging out

He will not notice

 

Okay

[Image attached]

Rose

Please get here fast



Emotional Support Ex 

 

Did you go clubbing with Rozanov again? 

 

Yes!!!

With him and Svetlana 

Mostly Svetlana 

Ilya was at the table staring at his phone all night

Fur secret reasons

I'm not allowed to tell

 

Are you still drunk?

 

Maybe a little! 

Wait

How do you know? 

Who got pictures? 

 

You texted me a selfie at 2am

I just woke up and saw it

Have you slept at all? 

 

Mmmmmaaaaayyyybbee

Hey Steve

You're my best friend probably

 

Steve?

 

Oh no!!! 

Autocorrect

SHANE HOLLANDER YOU AT MY BEST FRIENDS

DO NOT BE MAY AT ME

 

Why would I be mad at you? 

 

I had sex with someone who had sex with Ilya Rozanov 

Do you still love me? 

 

Someone else? 

 

With Sveta

She's so pretty and funny and sweet

And she's a Ferrari

And I'm a Ferrari 

And we did NOT go to the grocery store

Wait

Someone else??? 

What does that mean 

Someone else of what???

 

Incoming phone call: Emotional Support Ex

Call ended (53:50)

 

I love you

Even though you stole like ALL of my gay awakening thunder

 

I love you too

You're my favorite gay ex-girlfriend

Tell Sveta I can't wait to meet her
