private } chris

Can we do something? Anything. Just away from everybody else because I am legitimately about to lose my mind.

private } vesper

So do you know how to play cards or does Jimmy just keep you around for eye candy?

[Please let him come to your room and play with Martin and avoid everybody else.]

private } kon

Hey. Um.

. . . Can I have a cat.

spam } bond

[Well, that went incredibly poorly. He's too off to focus well - not even mad, just off - and by the end he's frustrated enough that he wants to call it quits and give Cass the damn knife back. But giving up in front of James is absolutely not an option, so he just grits his teeth and closes it up.]

That was a colossal waste of time. [With the sunniest of smiles, of course.]

spam } prefect

[Cassel knows where to find Prefect. Absolutely. When he's not with Barron, he's in the pub. It's fucked up and pathetic, but that's the name of the game this week, so whatever. He's not quite messed up enough to try to get in without Kon, but he'll absolutely text Prefect from just outside the door. Yes he will.]

come outside. you have a secret admirer.

[This will probably work no matter how drunk he is.]

spam } gym & greenhouse

[Cassel's still taking double shifts at the gym. He's a pretty common fixture at this point, and when he's not furiously cleaning something he's doing light work on the mats, training with Kon or Cass or James.]

[The rest of the time, he's either locked up in his room or tucked away in a quiet corner of the greenhouse. There's still a strange feeling of safety that lingers here, even though he knows that whatever reason Ivy had to protect him when he was small, it doesn't carry over to now. He brings a book and curls up behind a raised flowerbed anyway, taking sanctuary in the quiet when he gets too antsy to stay in his room.]

He's mad at me because he thinks I'm graduating soon.

What a jealous prick. He can't even fucking be happy for you?

I think maybe part of him is, but the rest of him just - feels like I'm leaving him. I told him I wouldn't leave him behind, but I don't.

I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't graduate, maybe he's wrong. I feel so messed up.

What the hell do I do?

You should graduate with me and then come back to warden the fuck out of Zane for being a miserable prick.

That'd probably make it worse. The wardening, I mean. Not the graduating. I'm not really sure I can do anything about that even if I want to. It's like some mystical emotional growth bullshit measured on the astral plane.

Yeah, tell me about it. And my warden's fucking useless, all he wants to do is turn me into a mini him, he thinks that'll get me to graduate. What works for him doesn't fucking work for me, y'know?

Sounds like you know what works for you, though. Even if he's a dumbass.

A huge dumbass.

Seriously, don't let Zane fuck with you. He's being a prick.

Yeah. Yeah, no, you're right. Family fucks me up, is all. You know.

I'm your family. I don't fuck you up.

You're different.

Well, I try harder.

You try, period.

That's what I'm here for.

Yep. Here not to fuck me up and kick me in the ass when I'm being an idiot.

Also provider of car, weed, and eye candy, but I like the part where you're not an asshole best. Or, okay, an acceptable kind of asshole.
