“Well, if that’s literally done then a mass murder will definitely happen,” she shivered. The thought of it made her stop eating. “Is, uh, is calling that person The Creeper fine? It just felt like he’s everywhere and ready to put a target above my head or something like that if he hears me say those two words. Is it even a he?”

“Don’t jinx it. We haven’t had one yet, just a mass abduction and two deaths.” Luckily, she was getting out of Plath before any kind of mass murder could happen, or at least so he was hoping. “That’s what he’s called. It’s what everyone calls him. If he targeted you for that, we’d all be dead. Given the fact that he once gave someone a gift of a bunch of used condoms, odds are in the favor of being a guy.”

“Okay, no questions, but do you know how to get rid of… bruises from your neck? My dad’s visiting soon and I don’t want him to ask about them.”

“Depends. How willing are you to wear make up? That’s the easiest solution.”

“Sounds good, but I could get kicked out for… showing myself to students. You know, staff policy”.

“That’s why you don’t tell anyone, obviously. Besides, I graduated. I’m not technically a student anymore.”

“I’m definitely excited to see them. Can you like… continue being a cheerleader or are sports still prohibited to you? I missed you in the training”, she commented with a little pout. “Also… I heard you’re graduating. That means you’re leaving?”

“I’m not supposed to be that active, but they’re not going to stop me. I’ve been doing some training on my own, trying to get back to where I was before it all happened.” Not that she was sure she’d ever get back there, but she was stubborn. “I...am, actually. I was accepted to Harvard Law, so I’ll be going there in the fall. I’m not sure what I’m doing for summer yet, but I might stay for the trip.”

“Oh, y-you want t-to be?  I m-mean, y-you could…” Her eyes quickly darted from Clarisa’s legs to her face. “I-it’s fine with m-me whichever you p-prefer. As long as… y-you’re comfortable.”

“I don’t care either way. I’m just messing with you,” Clary said with a laugh, clearly teasing the other girl. “I’m asking you. You’re the artist, right? What do you want?”

“I would, if this school’s not doing a SHIT job at creating a stimulating learning environment,” he reasoned, hands splayed matter-of-factly.  The more he got IRKED, the faster his legs bounced under the table, which was probably better than him causing any commotion in the classroom. “Am I… the only one feeling that??  It’s just so hard to sit still in here, God.”

“No, you’re definitely the ONLY one that thinks this is a shit school,” Clary drawled sarcastically, resisting the urge to roll her eyes. “As someone who literally lost her leg from a combination of a car accident caused by a staff member on meds and being ABDUCTED by a fucking psychopath, I definitely think this school is a GREAT learning environment.”

     “ since you’ve taken a LIKING to replacing parts of yourself, ” she motions to the other’s leg, a sweet smile on her lips. stop, mai. stop it. stop it. “ maybe you should REPLACE your attention span TOO!! i heard goldfish have longer one’s than yours. ”

a low blow, but clary wasn’t about to let it bother her NEARLY as much as the girl wanted it to. “since you’re such an OBLIVIOUS twat that you don’t get the fact that insulting people in a school full of KILLERS is a bad idea, why don’t you take a nice walk in the woods and get back to be when the creeper GUTS you??”

“Yeah… I guess I just find it interesting because… Well… Uh, it’s cool how science and technology helps people and… stuff.“ He trailed off, not knowing where to take his train of thought. “Can you get, uh… cute ones?”

“Really? I mean, yeah, it’s cool, but you are like, passionately awkward about it. Google prosthetic legs if you’re so into them,” she said with a small shrug. “Duh. They have ones with patterns and lights and crystals and the like.”

“That statement doesn’t even surprise me anymore, actually. At this rate I won’t even be surprised if not only a few but more than half of the people here are guilty of murder.” Esther’s actually still a bit shocked, she lied to the other to seem fine. “Includes me? Not to be scary or what but if you-know-who knows my existence he’s probably already hunting me…”

“That’s what you get when you shove the worst of the worst into a place and lock the doors.” She was guilty, one of the worst, but she wasn’t as horrific as she’d been when she arrived. “You-Know-Who? This isn’t fucking Harry Potter. The Creeper is a freak, but he goes after people that stand out. Either people everyone likes that make good victims or people who are dangerous to him.”

Her eyes lifted back to the girl. “Can’t that be said of basically anyone in this school? Nobody is here for a good reason, I’m sure. I think I’ll risk it.” Her lips twitched into a faint smile. “Anyway, I’m Henry.”

“Every school has a hierarchy within itself. We might be freaks compared to everyone else, but there are bitches and freaks in here that are bitchier and freakier than everyone else,” Clary said with a shrug. “Clarisa, but call me Clary.”

      “ maybe YOU should work on keeping your nose out of other people’s fucking business — but we BOTH know that’s not going to happen. ”

“maybe if i wasn’t surrounded by people with the IQ of a stuffed iguana, i wouldn’t have such fascinatingly STUPID things to stick my nose in.”

“Well…I don’t do the work, you guys do,” He mused, “I do a lot of your heavy lifting stuff, which I’m happy with. I just don’t need to be super coordinated to pick a girl up, yaknow? Speaking of– have you talked to coach about what’s happening with the squad over summer? Are you guys staying?”

“You still have to keep from dropping us, so I’m pretty sure that counts as some coordination, even if you can’t do a backflip. You’re very good at being the bottom of the pyramid,” she said with a small smile before sighing. “Oh, hun, I’m graduating. I won’t be here either way. I might stay for a few weeks since I heard they might be planning a trip of some kind, but I’m gonna be headed home and then off to Harvard.”

“Please stop talking about me like I’m not here,” he GLARED, pen hovering over the answer sheet.  He wrote down ‘false’ as instructed, letting out an EXASPERATED breath and shaking his head—FINALLY.  If only she hadn’t started with that uncalled for lecture, they could’ve finished sooner.

“If you didn’t act like you weren’t here, I wouldn’t,” Clary huffed, rolling her eyes as she watched him mark the answer down. It wasn’t that she LIKED figuring out all the answers, but it was apparently quicker than trying to get him to figure it out on his own. “Don’t you have any DESIRE to learn??”

“W-wow, you w-would, really??  Y-you could wear s-some of your best clothes, I g-guess, if-if you want t-to.  I mean, y-you’re never not well-dressed s-so, that’s n-not really a problem, but, um—S-sorry.”

“You don’t want me naked? I’m so offended. Kidding. Skirt or pants? Let me phrase that differently. Do you want to see the leg or not?”

@clarisaacosta:

They hadn’t seen each other in a while. Frankly, he missed her a little. He wanted to let her know that he appreciated her before she graduated. Having her sent to his office maybe was a bad choice, but he did it anyway. With a little bag wrapped up on his desk he waited for her. Once she showed up he smiled and stood up. “Clary… take a seat.”

With all the chaos of getting her new leg as well as trying to get her grades and her college applications in before graduation, Clary hadn’t had much time for socializing. It was a shame, really, when it was going to be the last time she’d see a lot of her dearest friends; including a dear friend who apparently needed her sent to his office to see her. “If I’m in trouble, I’m kicking your ass. I have a new leg. I can do that now,” she teased, moving to sit down.
