__________________

Calum giggles mostly to himself, his index finger wrapped up in the fist of his nephew laying on his lap. Well, he’s not technically his nephew by blood but the bond is still all the same. Calum never misses an opportunity to show off his picture to anyone that will give him the change too. Jae looks so much like Cace it’s insane but he gets it now, all the comments he and his sister used to get, and even now. Calum met Cace only two years ago while at a Christmas party thrown by someone that he can’t remember. They found each other by fate, as Cace liked to say.

Calum had been nursing his one drink for only half an hour before flipping the switch, rather than sulking, he was going to enjoy himself. Nothing too far, or too crazy but Calum knew he was definitely going to need a ride back home and he was going to enjoy the night. And it was in that, going back for another drink that Calum tripped. Nearly face planted with someone caught him with a laugh. “Let me guess, you’re not normally this much of a klutz.”

He laughed in return, still holding onto the girls forearms. “Give or take.” His balance returned soon, but his hold never fell away. He wasn’t sure if he had seen her around before, outside of the party. She looked so familiar. But in the drunken cloud taken over his brain he couldn’t answer his own curiosities.

“Cace,” she states.

“Calum.”

“And you might want a water at least one before going for whatever else tickles your fancy on this spread.” She guided him towards the drinks and snacks and quickly tossed him a bottle of water. “Drink up, buttercup.”

“Thanks,” Calum said, watching her turn to head back to the depths of the dance floor. “Hey, Cace,” he called out. When she turned, eyebrow raised and head cocked to the side, Calum had a shot prepared, raising up into the air. “Oh, don’t make a man drink alone.”

Cace walked back over with a grin on her face. “You know it’s bad luck to cheers with water right?”

Calum’s sly grin never wavered and he pulls up a second shot prepared. “Just give me two minutes to finish this water and no bad luck for us.”

And that brought them to grabbing lunch on Cace’s breaks--while she’s no singer, she does know her way around a contract--hanging in studios, the two of them taking day trips to get away from the noise of the city. Calum would ask for advice and Cace, being a year and a half older, happily gives it. But for all the advice she can give, Cace’s track record in the dating department wouldn’t ever show for it.

Jae kicks a little but a grin lights up his face. Calum laughs, stroking a finger along his cheek. “Hey, hey, what’s got you all giggly?” Calum’s voice is soft. The couch dips just a little next to him and Calum looks over to Cace.

Her smile is soft but still clearly holds the exhaustion that she hasn’t been able to shake yet. “How long have I been out?”

Calum keeps a hand on Jae’s tummy before sliding back into the cushions. “Not long enough. You’re off Mum duty. Remember. Uncle Cal and Nephew Jae taking the world by storm--no mum’s allowed.”

Cace scoffs, pushing up to to glance at the clock on the wall. “By the looks of it, it’s been an hour and a half and you haven’t left my house.”

Giving Jae’s tummy a rub, Calum tries to hide his smile. “Little booger here preoccupied me.”

“Oh just admit it, he’s too stinking cute.” Cace stares down at her son, watches the way he giggles and coos at the tickle of Calum’s fingers. “Like really stinkin’ cute,” she states in a whisper. For the moment she tried not to think too much about how she could kill the son of a bitch that got her pregnant only to bolt--though Cace wasn’t sure she’d call it bolting. He had a line of women and as Cace steadily refused to give up her baby, he went onto the next.

“I know that murdery look in your eyes. You’re exhausted. That guy’s a dick. But you have a happy and extremely healthy baby boy. Take the day, Cace. You deserve it.”

Cace sits up, folding her feet under her. “I love my son. I just wish he wouldn’t have any pain.”

“Jae’s got Uncle Cal, and Uncle Ashton, and Uncle Michael, and Uncle Luke. We’re all he’s going to need--you’ll be there for his first crush and we’ll beat up bullies.”

Cace laughs, hand rubbing gently over Jae’s head as Calum rests Jaue against his chest. “I’ll be there to beat up bullies too.”

“I did say we,” Calum grins, the twinkling lights of her decor. Her living room’s already been decorated. He helped last weekend with that and even helped her put a tree. “You know what you need?”

“You already told me it was sleep.”

“In addition to sleep,” Calum starts. The tree’s beautiful. Cace always makes sure of that for Christmas. “You need Christmas photos in cheesy matching outfits with your baby boy and we’ll send them out to your family and make really bad Christmas ornaments and we’ll stamp Jae’s little hand on one and you’re going to enjoy this holiday season with your son and your best friend.”

“Do you remember the Christmas party we met at?”

Calum nods. “Of course I do. And this year will be the absolute opposite of that, but it’ll be good for you, Cace.”

There’s a moment silence. Cace studying the feature of Calum’s face and Calum studying the features of her. She notices the worry on his face, the way it pulls down his lips and makes his eyes dimmer. He notices the bags, but a certain bright spot in her eyes. “Alright, you’ve convinced me. Homemade Christmas ornaments and cheesy photos. I’ll go get dressed.”

“No, no, you stay home. Rest up. I’ll go out and get what we need. Jae can tag along. He gets a vote in the really cringe onesie I buy him.”

“Cal, c’mon. Jae gets fussy sometimes and in a mood. I don’t want you have to tackle that all on your own.”

“Cace, let me do that. For you. Just one day. I know Jae, when he gets fussy I check diaper first, try the bottle second, and if that doesn’t work. you taught me the swaddle. We’ll take five and I’ll make him a cozy bean wrapped in his mum’s smelling blanket,” Calum punctuates the part by tugging on the blanket Cace snuggled up with in her sleep, which admittedly she might be just a tad too big for, “and he’ll be fine. We’ll be fine.”

Pushing to her knees, Cace holds Calum’s cheek in one hand. Calum didn’t have to step in. Surely, there were better things to do than go with Cace to appointments and stay home on nights when she knew the guys were out. And he helped put together the nursery. He got the guys to help him too, but Calum would be on the receiving end of 7 am phone calls to fold baby clothes and lift packages into her house when she got too big to bend over or lift anything.

“You’re more than a girl could ever ask for, you know?”

“Good thing you didn’t ask for me.”

Cace rolls her eyes. “Yeah, no, I called it fate. But still, I appreciate you. For everything. It means a lot.”

Calum kisses her cheek. “You’re welcome. Now, text me what size you wear and then go back to sleep. Shower first. I can smell you.”

A chuckle escapes Cace’s throat. “That’s-that’s not me, Cal.”

“Oh, Jae, buddy.”

With Jae in a fresh diaper and the diaper backpack Cace keeps packed at all times on his shoulders, Calum straps Jae into the carseat he bought for his own car. Cace told him to just use the one she had, but Calum wanted one in his car, just in case he needed it for emergencies, for Uncle and Nephew days. His phone shakes in his pocket as he connects the last buckle into the middle. “All good? Snug in there?”

Jae’s on the verge of sleep, and Calum knows the ride will lull him right into the deep sleep. Calum responds to his own question. “Yeah, Uncle Cal, I’m snug as hell. Drunk of some milk. But, oh, boy, was it good.”

I wear a XL. Still have baby weight. Who knows if I’ll loose it all.

A sigh escapes his lips. Cace hasn’t let the baby weight fixation go. She lost some of it, but the last little bit was still holding strong. You know XL just means extra love, right?

What happened to the e then?

Xtra Love. It’s cool guy spelling. You look great. You had a baby. Give yourself some kindness.

Cool guy spelling for Cool guy Cal.

Yeah, something like that. It doesn’t shock Calum that she doesn’t respond to the other parts of his text.

Calum makes his first venture to the craft store. It’s the furtherest stop on the agenda today, so he heads there first. Jae sleeps the majority of that stop, even with all Calum’s wondering up and down aisle he doesn’t seem bothered. Calum gathers some popsicle sticks, glue, felt, glitter, various body safe paints, string, ribbon, and everything else he can think of. He knows it’s going to be a mess, but what’s Christmas without a little bit of a glitter bomb.

Jae sings, or as close to singing, from the backseat as the radio plays. At a red light, Calum glances back. “Huh, that was a nice nap you got in. Let’s hope your mum got the same.”

Calum knows by the parking lot this store is going to be a bit crowded and noisy. But it’s the first one he could think off that would family matching onesies. Calum figures instead of the stroller he’ll strap Jae to his chest. Hopefully that will keep him calmer seeing as the little guy’s still not totally a fan of a lot of noise. He does alright by prolonged exposure makes him just a tiny bit fussy.

It’s a good sign when Jae looks around, eyes bright. “Oh yeah, lots of new sights around here,” Calum states softly. The store is not as bad as he originally thought. There’s still a lot of people out and about but somehow they don’t seem to be all swarming the shopping floor. He can only imagine what the checkout line looks like, but that’s more of a worry for later--if he even finds the matching onesies.

The speakers overhead pump Christmas music through the store. Thought Calum wouldn’t call himself big on Christmas, he finds humming along, fingers brushing along the various fabrics as he weaves through the aisles and racks. Calum gets sidetrack on his way to the Christmas displays spying an intriguing button up--it’s black with a dotted pattern. Up close he can see there’s little snowflakes instead of actual circles.

He shouldn’t get it, but he finds his size and figures he’ll hold onto it and debate whether or not he’s going to give into the impulse buy. Returning back to his assigned course, Calum debates if he’s going to go for the reindeer onesies or if he’s going to go for the ones decorated in various trees. “Your mum’s going to kill me if I show up with reindeer onesies, but you’d be cute. Maybe death ain’t so bad.”

It takes a few minutes to consider all the options though, checking out what’s available in all the sizes they’d need. Calum catches the tiny whine Jae starts up with and soothing bounces him. “Okay, bud, I got it. I’ll be quick.”

Calum hopes death comes swift as grabs the reindeer onesies. Calum rushes over to the baby section. He knows without a doubt there are Christmas onesies hanging out. And sure enough, with only a two minutes search, Calum is able to grab Jae a matching outfit too and turns for the registers. On his trek, Calum does put back the button up--he doesn’t need it at the time being.

The line is long. Jae’s settled for the time being, but Calum knows it might not take much to set him off. The cashier’s seem to be working fast so Calum risks it. He steps into line with a deep exhale. The first couple of minutes is goes by without a problem. And he manages to inch up just a little. However, by the time they get halfway through the life, Jae’s earlier whines start back up.

Softy, Calum shushes him, running his free hand up and down Jae’s back. “It’s okay.” If this doesn’t work, Calum will just abandon the line and hope once Jae’s settle he can find the outfits again.

For a minute Jae seems to be settling and the line shuffles up again. However, they seemingly get stuck under/near a speaker hidden in a ceiling tile because the beef between Heat Miser and Snow Miser gets louder and that in turns sets off Jae. A cry spills from his throat. Not ideal, but Calum looks to see how many people are behind him--there’s only a few in front. But the sound of Jae’s cries tells Calum not to push it.

“I gotcha, I gotcha,” Calum whispers to Jae, turning and shimmying past the people in line. He mutters a few apologies and though, he would normally find the rack to place the clothes back on, Calum doesn’t want to take too long in case this is a diaper change cry.

“I know loud noises aren’t a favorite of yours, buddy. We’ll get somewhere quieter, promise.”

Free from the line, Calum shuffles to the bathroom. “Alright, let’s see what’s causing these tears.” It’s partially a diaper change. Though in a clean diaper, Jae doesn’t settle completely. “Hungry?”

It doesn’t hold interest. Calum tries a few other things before just resigning to the fact that it might’ve been sensory overload on Jae’s part. Calum drags Jae’s blanket over his shoulder and nestles him into it. Holding him close to his chest, Calum slips the backpack back onto his shoulder. “Okay, we can go chill out in the car. Try another store--hopefully less crowded.”

The cries haven’t completely stopped but they have faded. Calum doesn’t even glance over to where he stuck the onesies. They’re not important right now, an always be attained at some other point. Right on the mat that leads out of the store, Calum catches some voice shouting, “Sir!”

He doesn’t stop, assuming it’s someone trying to reach someone else. however, another, “Sir!” fills the air and Calum slows, turning his head. He doesn’t spot anyone at first, well not anyone that he recognizes are seems to be trying to get his attention but on a second pass over the faces, an older woman at the register holds up a bag.

“Me?” Calum questions, readjusting Jae quickly and tucking him more into his chest and neck.

The woman waves him over, before quickly turning back to the cashier. Calum steps a step forward, still unsure of what’s happening. He doesn’t know her. He thinks she might’ve been in the line either in front or behind him, but he doesn’t really know at all.

“Is-is everything okay?” Calum tries to see what’s in the bag and then mentally runs through his mind of what he could’ve dropped in line. All the bags from the craft store are in the truck. His phone and wallet are in his pockets, along with his keys.

“I should be asking the little one that,” she grins. Calum studies her face. He’d figure forties at the latest, two younger kids at her side. He wishes he did know her, then this would make this last strange. “Double check that these are all that you needed. Two adult onesies and then one for the baby, right?”

Calum’s heart nearly drops to his ass. “Wh-What?”

“Check that it’s all right,” she returns holding out one bag. The two kids hold bags of their own. “I don’t know if you were getting anything else, all I saw you put back were the onesies.”

“I-I can’t.” Jae wriggles in his arms and Calum sighs for a moment before bouncing him gently. “You really didn’t have to.”

“Well, now, I don’t have to do anything, you’re right. But I wanted too. I’ve been down this road. And the fact that you put your son above all, besides, it’s Christmas.”

Calum doesn’t even think to correct her thoughts on Jae instead he peeks inside the bag to see three outfits and a receipt. “Ma’am, really, I-I don’t know what to say. Thank you. I-I can pay you back.” Calum fumbles for a second to reach his wallet but she stills him with pat on his arm and a smile.

“No need sweetheart. Take care of that handsome one and enjoy your holidays.” With that, she takes a hand of each of the kids with her and then continues on past.

Calum watches her, unsure if it’s real or not. Unsure if he’s really living this. Someone, possibly a manager, comes down to the register he’s standing in front of. “Everything okay, sir?”

“I-yeah. Maybe a Christmas miracle?” he exhales facing them.

It’s another woman with a smile. “She’s a regular here. Does stuff like this all the time.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. The second you got out of line, she was on it trying to get the stuff you put down.” Lined on the front of the registers are a line of gift cards. No good deed should go without something good in return.

He grabs one quickly. “Can I put 50 on this?”

“Oh, yeah, sure.” The question clearly comes as a surprise. Calum knows by now in all his shock he’s not likely to find the woman in the parking lot. As the machine asks him to remove his card, Calum instructors them to use it for the next person in line.

“You sure?”

He nods. “Yes, I’m very sure. Thank you, for taking me.” He grabs the bag and hurries back through the door.

“You really bought reindeer onesies?” Cace sighs, peering into the bag.

Jae sits in a rocker nearby. The moment Calum got him into the car his nerves completely settled and he went back his is normal bubbly self. Calum gulps down a third of the glass of water. “I didn’t buy it. But yes, reindeers.”

“What do you mean you didn’t buy them?”

“The line was long and I got stuck under the speaker in the store. Jae had been getting a tiny fussy beforehand but the music was the tipping point. So I stepped out of line. Just as I got Jae mostly settled, I figured I’d take him out to the car let him completely reset basically before trying again to snag the clothes. A woman in line saw me leave with him and she paid for it. One of the managers or something said she does stuff like that all the time.”

“She what?”

“Yeah, she paid for it while I in the bathroom. I guess the line was moving faster than I thought but I didn’t want to just ignore Jae, so I just made the call to leave line.”

“A Christmas miracle,” Cace returns.

“Something like that. Did you rest well?”

“I didn’t wake up until you called and said you were on your way. So yes, much needed.” Leaning into the kitchen table, Cace uses her foot to add extra bounce for Jae. “I noticed there’s a second adult onesies in there.”

“Sue me. I wanted in on cheesy photos too.”

“Good thing phone cameras come with timers,” she grins. “Sticking around for arts and crafts too? I gotta feed Jae in another half an hour. Or am I still in Mum jail?”

“I’ll stick around. But you’re still in Mum jail, so that means I make Jae’s ornament--you sip on the non-alcoholic bubbly and gingerbread cookies you bought.”

“I do vote pictures first. Because there’s bound to be a mess.”

“Nah, it’ll be fine.” It can be that much of a mess, especially if Calum doesn’t bother with glitter.

“You say that now,” she laughs. “But if you think there won’t be a mess, be my guest. I’m going to sip on non-alcoholic bubbly, eat gingerbread cookies, and enjoy this show.”

Cace pops open the white grape sparkling juice and a fancy wine glass. Her second trip into the kitchen is for the tin of cookies--actually full of cookies--and settles at the kitchen table. She sits opposite of Calum’s ornament crafting setup. And it takes him until Cace has to feed and rather than fussing about with moving to another room, she drapes the privacy blanket over. The amusement is settled in deep on her face as she watches Calum try to sketch out his design.

“I will say, I’m glad you’re a musician,” she teases.

“Ya know what, not everyone can have a Dad who’s like a world renowned artist.”

“Tattoo artist, and trust me the drawing gene skipped me.”

Calum scoffs. “Then you’re talking a lot shit for a non-drawing-gene. But that does explain who you got into legal things.”

Her laughter is sharp. “Something like that. Though I think it might be more about me liking raining on some parades. Besides, who else can you call that will scare your team at just a name-drop?”

Calum points the pen cap in her direction with a nod. “I never suspected that you’d shake grown men to their core. But just the casual mention of you and you’d think they’d seen ghosts.”

Cace winks, readjusting the burping blanket. “I have that effect sometimes.”

“Can I burp him?”

“You’ve stolen my son!”

“Oh c’mon, I’m his Godfather.”

“You now Godfather Cal has a certain ring to it.” Cace turns down her mouth into a frown, dropping the octave in her voice, as she hoists Jae onto . “You come into my house on the day of my daughter’s wedding.”

Calum giggles at her impression but doesn’t push on the burping request. “I still prefer Uncle Cal. Easier to say.”

It’s as Calum can only watch the paint splatter onto the page does he immediately regret not taking Cace’s advice and taking photos first. Jae continues to hammer into the paint and thankfully, Cace doesn’t lose her head about messes. But Calum can only imagine what the green paint is going to look like against her yellow walls.

“Jae, c’mon, work with me,” Calum sighs, lifting his tiny hand and then presses onto the felt. “Your Mum’s going to murder the both of us. But very slowly.”

Cace gasps from the end of the table. “I can hear you you know! I wouldn’t kill either one of you. Just tell you I told you so, repeatedly. Until you’d wish I have of killed you.”

“Just be glad I decided against opening the glitter.”

“Why would you buy glitter, Calum?”

“I don’t know. I was in a craft store. I blacked out and when I came to, there was glitter in my basket.”Jae watches the exchange and slams a hand with paint onto the table. Calum’s sigh is audible and she watches him deflate in the chair. “It’ll come out I promise.”

“Or it doesn’t and I can forever mark that as the spot that Uncle Cal and Jae DIY’ed Christmas ornaments and when I’m old and nothing but skin and bones, I’ll pass the table onto him for his kids to make arts and crafts on and it becomes a legacy.”

Calum feels the wet hand on his chest through his t-shirt and cringes. Cace continues on. “Or what doesn’t come out is that stain on your shirt and you forever think twice about not listening to me. The pictures will be a story to remember. When my dad ask me why does Jae have a green nose and I tell him before pictures were taken he and Calum made ornaments and I advised ornaments second but Calum wanted to do that first and I scrubbed my son down as best as I could, but you know how green paint is.”

“You are not helping,” Calum whispers.

“Oh, no, I’m not. But you’re right. I needed Mum jail.” Her raised eyebrow and pointed sip from her glass tells Calum he’s going to be the one cleaning up and only him.

He doesn’t want her to be right. But even after ornaments are left to dry and he scrubs down Jae there is still a bit of residue, a hint of what color once took up residency on his skin that don’t completely fade reminds Calum to maybe listen to Cace since she’s the one dealing with a baby day in and day out. Though Calum would’ve liked to think he was a pretty good second. He’s there for a lot but there might be some things he hadn’t had to think through just yet on the whole baby front.

His t-shirt is ruined and the battle of baby vomit vs t-shirts should’ve warned Calum to not wear anything he holds too precious. But clothes are just clothes in the grand scheme of things. “You’re lucky you’re cute, Jae.”

Calum gets him into the onesie and settles him into the rocking seat to see what he can do about the wall. The table made it with very minimal damage and Calum’s sure with another passover the little that does remain will come out. Cace kneels on the floor, a bucket beside her and the sounds of scrub hits his hears. “Hey, Mum jail, remember,” Calum returns.

“Oh, I couldn’t let you suffer for that long without helping. I’ll probably have to repaint in some points, or I wait until he gets way older and just let whatever mess he creates exist and possibly turn it into some masterpiece.”

“You said the art gene skipped you.”

She laughs. “I did say possibly. As in an option.”

“I can help you repaint next week.”

“Wanna borrow one of my--what did you call it, an ultimate robe?”

“What are you on about?”

“Undershirt. I call them a white beater. You’ve got tons of them. You called it the ultimate robe in an interview once.”

“You said you didn’t watch those.”

“I don't normally. I saw a clip.”

“And you remembered from how long ago?”

Cace shrugs, dipping her rag into the water at her side. “Who knows at this point? You’re lucky I still remember my own name.”

The thing Calum’s learned about Cace is that’s it’s true. She can hardly ever remember things about herself, but she’s always got it together for those around her. And that’s why he pushed for her to take today--because she needed the time for herself. And even if it’s hard because of a baby he still wants to be the one there for her. He would always have her back. He’d buy cheesy matching onesies and hold bells behind the camera to get Jae to look up and he’d fake pose decorating an already decorated Christmas tree and he’d hoist Jae into his arms and tickle the little boy’s side and he’d take the most unflattering pictures of Cace only to make it up with the most flattering ones right after if it meant that at the end of it all, she knew he had her back.

Cace reclines into Calum’s side, Jae seated in her lap. The phone’s still counting down but she’s not worried about that. She looks up, watching Calum watching her. “I’m not the camera,” he teases.

“Nah, but you’re a close second.”

Calum kisses the top of her head, mostly aware of the shutter of the camera. “I’ll take that. Though I should be number one. Now actually face the camera once I set this up again.”

“No promises,” Cace laughs. Though she does look at the camera the second time. She can faintly see the slightly out of focus string lights on the trees. And inside the square it’s bound to be picturesque. There’s no walls with green paint or t-shirts ruined, or still open can of cookies that she absolutely thought she had covered and put back up. And maybe it’s okay if perfection only exist inside that square. And maybe it’s okay if her house is a mess and she’s a mess, and Calum’s a mess because at least she had the few people that cared around still.

********

Joy hadn’t anticipated seeing Calum’s handwriting on a letter just yet. His card usually came with him in person. But she doesn’t let the curiosity simmer too long and flips over the white envelope to pop the golden sticker holding it close. A beautiful white, gold and green card greets her, with Merry Christmas on it.

When she open the card, a couple photos slip down and she can see the black ink with Calum’s telling handwriting. She spies Cace and Jae standing in front of a tree, a decorating dangling in her hand. The second photo is Cace, Calum and Jae seated on the floor, smiling with the twinkling lights fading in the background. There’s a third of Calum and Jae too. All three of them matching with reminders antlers poking out from the hood of their pj’s.

The typography of the inside of the card is the same as the outside, Season Greetings. But just above it is a note, from Cace, Jae, and Calum. And then just below the standard greeting of the card is more from Calum.

Hi Mum,

I know this card normally comes with me attached but I didn’t want to forget to send these pictures.

I made Cace take a day and partially it was successful. Another part was disastrous. Disaster struck with paint and ornaments but I know you said you wanted more pictures of Jae too. These felt appropriate. He’s getting bigger, like everytime I blink he’s in a new size. I don’t know how Cace does it. How she just watches him everyday and doesn’t worry that time is moving too fast. Maybe she does worry and does her best just to focus on the day at hand. I don’t know how you did it with Mali and me. I’m sure it was the same thing--everyday just us shooting up with almost no end in sight. You’ll be happy to know Cace and Jae are doing well too. She started work again and takes him most days. Some days she drops him off at a daycare. He seems to handle it well for now. Soon, she says she’ll be dropping him off more than half the week at the daycare. So we’ll know for sure how Jae feels about that when that happens.

Send me some Oz summer. I wasn’t sure I was ready to jump into onesies just yet and even after this pictures, I still don’t think I am. Love you and miss you.

Calum.

[01:13] (no name) Lek turned halfway at the sound of her tone, holding onto his shoulder strap while watching her get upset. A soft frown overcoming him at what she said. The slight brusk in his voice was still there just from being so used to speaking like that but he tried to be... comforting? It was obvious the boy wasn't use to do something like that, "Yea... well... ya ain't botherin' me... so quit worrin'." If she started to head to the dorms he rubbed at his head nervously while contemplating something before grunting. Running over and next to her, "Ya'know Cace gamme da crown, right?" [01:15] Lumiere smiles a bit, knowing she wasn't being an annoying fuck though that quickly changes at the mention of the crown. "You should give that back to Teshak. That's what you were going to do, right?" She folds her arms over her chest, obviously pissed. "I took it from Cace earlier because It hought it'd upset you to have it., since you told me to go take care of him earlier and stuff..." [01:23] (no name) Lek frowned a little at her disgussing it, going quiet for awhile as she spoke and seemed pissed. Scrunching up his mouth a little as she mentioned Lek being upset, "It ain't upset me! Not like I care fo' him o' nothang!" Shuffling for the phone in his pocket as an excuse to avoid eye contact as he murmured, "Yea...I was gunna give it back." He cleared his throat and looked down the hallway, "But I can't jus.. do dat. I mean- Cace- wants it in da lost and found." Lek pulled his backpack to the side and shuffled out the crown with Teshak's blood still on it and frowned all the more, "I wanted ta ask dat lil' kid where he bought it so I could by a copy of it or somethang. I mean.." He rotated the crown to look at it and show her, "If he wears a hat dis dumb it's gotta be important to him or somethang ya'know?" His brows lifted up a little before looking down at the item again. [01:23] Moon (rafiel.sporaciao): discussing* [01:25] Lumiere lightens up a bit, cocking her head to the side. "Seems like you care to me. Maybe not about him but, you're generally nice I guess?" Laughing, she covers her mouth and clears her throat after. "We should go give it to him. Cace can kiss my ass. I don't care if I need to be like my sister or whatever the hell he wants to tell me, I'm not listening to him." Ooooh, what a badass. She's so gonna get her ass kicked by Cace one day. :| "I say give it back." [01:29] Callista Macbain was hearing some murmuring when she was across the lobby, and she walked over to what seemed like a small gathering of people and stopped when she was within earshot to hear what was being said. Fixing her glasses a little, she saw Lumi in the crowd, and she would smile to her if the smaller girl's eyes would ever glance towards her direction. [01:30] Lumiere looks over her shoulder after hearing the footsteps headed her direction, "Oh!" Waving quickly to Callista, she smiles at her and returns her attention to Lek; still set on convincing him to return the crown. [01:33] (no name) Lek just glared at her when she called him generally nice and caring >: with a slight suck of his teeth, "Maaaan I ain't no wuss..." At least he lightened up on her laughing even if he thought it was because the girl was joking about it. Quirking a brow about her spoken words of Cace and self consciously checked around like he expected the chairman to just stand behind them all >:| "I know I know.. I'mma give it back aight? I was jus.... gunna clean da blood off. End den put blood on tha fake one or somethang... I dunno if that'd trick Cace. But... " He looked at her a little more concerned, "Ya should watch yo mouth 'round him. He dun play around. Even if he knows yur sis." He looked ready to add something before noticing Lumiere's attention going towards someone else. When she looked back at him he would only stare with a, "Ya'know her?" Stupid question... Lek's having a blonde moment. He's on alotta meds... don't blame him ! ;_; [01:37] Callista Macbain thought maybe her eyes were playing tricks on her at first, but then realized there was only Lumi and another boy with her... shadows like to play tricks with her. Callista waved back when Lumi did, and she took a couple steps towards them, "Hello, Lumi. Is everything okay?" She asked in a pleasant and sincere tone, her sharp green eyes looking between her and Lek expectantly. [01:38] Lumiere knows he's on meds. She gave him some. 8D)) Lum smiles at him at the mention of returning the crown, it's the right thing. Yep. "I don't think Cace gives a rat's ass. The damage has been done. Cace just can't see Teshak with it, is all." Chuckling at his question of Callista, she nods. "Yeah I do. She's a friend." Her attention turns to Callista and she nods yet again, "Yeah, everything is fine. Lek and I are..." looking to him, she seems a bit confused and continues in a questioning tone, "Hanging out?" Who knows anymore. She's pretty sure they were headed to the infirmary... Bam. Back to Lek, "You should probably wait till Teshak's awake though, so you can let him know." [01:44] (no name) Lek frowned, "Yea... dat's the problem.. Teshil.. Teshak? He fuckin' hates me so... I wouldn't be surprised if he tried ta get payback by struttin' wit it on...." The DC member adjusted that darn lower brim piercing again, looking between the two as the other female moved closer and spoke. He just nodded towards her like some thug would do with a brusk, "Sup." Quirking a brow down towards Lumi, "Uhhh...wha-....I dunno..." He wasn't sure if her asking about hanging out was a trick question or something D:! Whenever she added the last part he rubbed at his brow a little, "Well... yea I was thinkin' dat... don't think he'll wanna see me..I am.. kinda da one that.." He looked off towards the other female like the boy was hoping for her to interupt him as his mouth scrunched a little. He might have beat up Teshak but the guy regreted it. [01:47] Lumiere shrugs, "I can take it for you if you really think he'd react that way." Looking over her shoulder again, she shouts to Callista, "Hey. I'm gonna show this guy to the infirmary. I'll talk to you later or something." Looking back at Lek, she grabs his wrist and starts to drag him towards the infirmary. Crown or not, he needs to quit standing so much. No good for his injuries. Yep.. ((Sorry to ditch you Keaton ;_;)) [01:48] Lumiere pauses next to Callista and smiles to her again, "Hey. Gimmie your number." [01:49] Callista Macbain blinks at Lumi for a moment, "Number? OH, yes! Of course!" She gestured her finger as she said each number, "555-1337." [01:50] Lumiere repeats the number quietly to herself and continues to drag Lek away, "I'll text you later!"

[01:54] (no name) Lek frowned and stretched out his arm a little, "Sure... not like someone wantin' me dead is new really.." Hearing the shout he cringed and looked down at her with flattened brows, "What? Thought ya said bout waitin' for dat kid to wake?!" Feeling his wrist grab he super frowned and stumbled a little being pulled, "Hey wait what?!" He would obviously have risen his rasp voice enough for Callista to hear him, "I ain't goin' back ta dat! It's fuckin' boring ass shit in dere! I'm good, chill CHILL!" Being stopped he went silent and looked at the number exchange rather stupified. Checking over Calli he smirked a little flirtatious with a, "How you doin'?" Suddenly being pulled again would shout the same, "Yo WAIT!" Turning halfway to see Calli, "Can I Have yo numbah too?!" while being dragged XD Flirting at its finest. [01:56] Callista Macbain just kinda looked on with a o_o; face... finding the scene a little too silly to catch the flirtations... not to mention flirts kinda fly over her head anyway. And she just waved at them silently while they went to the infirm. [01:57] Lumiere: "It's not like I'm leaving you there by yourself, dumbass," she mutters under her breath and his Callista-flirting. As he asks her for her number, she slides her hand downwards; grabbing his and tugs harder than before. "You really think to flirt with girls you don't know?" Don't get pissed at him, stupid girl. D:< Not like you have a good reason. [02:02] (no name) Lek would have poutted a little at the wave and added with a mutter, "Dude! Ya ruinin' mah flow.." Yea.. blame her for your fail flirting Lek. Frowning a little as he stumbled forward enough to catch up, "Ow ow what?! I can sleep in mah room man..." Eyes widening a little from the tug, "What?! What's wrong wit dat?! IS it against the law to flirt?!" Suddenly he would start to limp alot with painful grunts like she hurt him really badly. [02:04] Lumiere pulls him for quite the distance, not realizing that he's in pain before it clicks. "Oh god," instantly letting go, she turns to him and blushes hard. What a stupid girl! :O "I'm sorr--" Groaning as she remembers that he said not to apologize so much, she squeaks the rest of it out quietly and looks away, covering her face with her scarf like usual. [02:05] Lumiere: "Do you /want/ her number? I can just give it to you," she adds, taking out her phone and putting the contact in for herself. D: [02:09] (no name) Lek continued to make the pained sounds and grunt until she stopped and seeing her turned around he smirked. It only grew more into a stupid smile as she said oh god and upon her sorry and squeak he would start laughing, "Nahahhahahahaha, -" The smile stayed on mischeviously as he added, "I was jus fuckin' wit you." Seeing the will for Calli's number he quirked a brow and shook his head a little uncomfortable with it, "Nah man I ain't gunna call no chick who didn't gimme dere numbah. Dat's stalker shit." He would laugh again though and add with a tease, "I got ya SO good. Ya gotta chill." His body would have tilted a little to the side like he expected her to bap him on the arm or something from the scare he gave. [02:10] Moon (rafiel.sporaciao): aw thanks XD he was actually suppose to be an NPC but it bothers me to make a character that does things with reason so I developed his background more flesh out like 2 days into rp'ing him and started to enjoy him XD [02:10] Moon (rafiel.sporaciao): does things without reason*

[02:11] Lumiere pouts and puts her phone away, "Fine." She turns away from him, heading towards the infirmary, not dragging him along this time. "Come on, then." She sounds kinda pissed but, it doesn't really feel like she is. Oh stupid, stupid girl. [02:14] (no name) Lek slouched a little as he followed her in a lighter tone, "Oh comon man really?!" Sucking his teeth a little. If it was someone like Nike and Torri he would he said fuck it and walked off rudely but considering all she's done so far he seemed to actually have some worry in her getting upset. Frowning a little as he walked beside her, "Seriously dude...? It was a joke! Comon!" [02:16] Lumiere turns around and pouts at him, "You're so meaaaaaan." Her cheeks are a little bit red, though it seems she can't help but blush today. Wtf. Getting all up in his face, she looks up at him and sticks her tongue out at him after she calls him a jerk in a playful tone. "It's a joke! Comeon!" Mocking him, ho-ho. WHATNAO. [02:22] (no name) Lek stopped and frowned at the pout, alot of his negative reactions seemed to lead to frowns. Quirked a lip up with a confused and offended, "Whaaaaa-?!" at being mean. He glared at her a little with his mouth scrunched, seeming to get a little angry because.. he had a slight anger problem D: but he did enjoy jokes :> and seeing Lumi stick her tongue out he would lighten up from the angered look that was started to form. Hearing the mock he would drop his jaw a little with a smirk from being beaten at his own game. Nodding softly at it with more of a smirk and looking over her head like he just couldn't believe it with a soft, "Aight aight.. ya got me." [02:25] Lumiere stares him dead on, a smirk on her face. "You gonna go in the infirmary like I'm telling you to? Or will you resist?" This followed by a chuckle. She stands there, still up in his face and doesn't move. "Huh? Huh?" :o [02:31] (no name) Lek smiled again with a cock of his head and nodding, "Yea yea, I ain't sleepin' in dere though.." Seeing her laugh his facial expression became softer again. He would lean in a little before realizing how close he was to her face and freeze up a little. His eyes relaxing as he looked in hers and went quiet, shifting between her lips and her eyes before playing with a piercing in his own mouth. He seemed to hesitate before finally backing up with a light blush and moving towards the door a little quiet, "Alright.." [02:33] Moon (rafiel.sporaciao): Tiki would sleep on his back and his heal tilted backwards where his white chin showed and slept like that. Like a dog XD [02:33] Lumiere looks at him blankly, not expecting him to give up so easily. "O-okay.. But, you're spending the night," she says, pushing him into the infirmary. [02:36] (no name) Lek turned halfway at her with a pout while still blushing, "Whaaaa-?!" before he was pushed into the infirmary and just stumbled about inside. Clenching his teeth in pain from it but held in a grunt so she wouldn't go apologizing like crazy again. His eyes diverted to Teshak's window to see the demi-human asleep and eased up a little to know he at least wouldn't be glared at all night DX Turning around to Lumiere and walking backwards as he motioned to the whole scenery, "Mmmmmm boring green blob paint. fuuuuun."

[02:38] Lumiere continues to walk forward, forcing him into the room behind him. "Yeeeep, better get used to it, cause even if I have to force you to, you're staying here." Yet again she sounds firm and if he didn't know so by now, she'd stick by it. "Or are you gonna try and leave?" [02:42] (no name) Lek went all D: as she continued to walk forward and tried to walk backwards faster to prevent her from catching up, "Nnnnnaaaaaaahwaaa-?!" Turning around quickly as he brought his shoulders inwards a little, "I'm goin' I'm going damn... crazy chick." He went into the other room after moving the curtain out of the way. Hearing about being forced to stay he frowned again at her, "Well.. bettah hook some damn DSL in here o' somethang... WiFi or some shit.." It was half joking and half true :> He yawned a little but turned to hide it as best he could from her and put a fist over his mouth before adding, "If I leave ya wouldn't know ahnyways." [02:45] Lumiere raises an eyebrow, smirking. "I will if I stay here, too." Her hands find her hips as she looks sooo smug, "I should probably stick around in case Teshak wakes up and something goes wrong." Nodding, she looks at him with that smiiiirk. So cocky all of a sudden. Dang. "Your ass needs to rest and this is the best place for it, right now." Yep. [02:52] (no name) Lek just gave a tired look at her =.= at hearing he wouldn't be able to leave before a smirk came at another tease, "Ohhh really?! Ya wanna stay herr wit mee huh?!" He made a flirty click of his teeth twice and smiled. Just because she had a boyfriend didn't mean he couldn't at least mess with her :> taking a deep breath the boy went to sit down and take off his backpack. Plopping it on the ground with an exhaused grunt with relief from the T-Board's weight lifted off. He dropped backwards in his sit to rest his sore back across the width of the bed while his legs were still off and over the edge. Looking up at the ceiling as he just sigh with a mutter of, "Goodpaingoodpain." that did sound painful in his voice. Yawning again as he shuffled for the mp3 and called out towards her, "So.. Miss Health Poelice, where ya gunna sleep?" [02:57] Lumiere follows him behind the curtain, sitting down on the edge of the bed. Her cocky behaviour doesn't waver as she looks over her shoulder to him, "I'll figure something out, it's not really your concern. You're the one who needs to chill." [02:57] Lumiere sticks her tongue out at him again afterwards. [03:02] (no name) Lek looked over to her with his arms spread out, lifting the left one up to push her a little. His foot kicking the backpack on the floor as it swung about bored. The boy's pierced brow quirked up with a soft, "Pffft!" sound at her attitude, "Don't tell mi ta chill miss thang." Peeking down at the mp3 his thumb rolled across the circle to scroll through the playlist as his voice lowered in a joke, "Well ya COULD get dat friend o' yurs ovah. Sleepen partay Ohhhhhhhh?!" He scooted a little towards the window as if she was going to do some wrestling move backwards onto him. [03:04] Lumiere turns around and sighs. She goes to take off her backpack and would have probably thrown it at him, but he doesn't need to be hit with the heavy book inside. "Callista wouldn't, even if I wanted to do something like that. Don't get your hopes up," she snickers, dropping the bag to the floor with a heavy thud. "You're lucky I don't try to beat you." Mumble mumble. :< [03:11] (no name) Lek shifted himself in a rotation to finally lay properly on the bed while canting his head to look past his feet towards her without having to put too much strain on his collar bone. Whenever she turned around he would just have that stupid smile on his face again, "Hey man, a guy can dream." His voice lingering and soft in a joke again. Only to let another 'Pffft' out upon being beat up, "See. So uptight." He moved a hand up to itch at his brow, knowing completely the hypocrisy in that statement with his anger especially towards non DC members. Digging his heel down to scoot lower and kick lightly at her butt, "Relax will ya?" [03:15] Lumiere squeaks out loud as he lightly kicks her. Instantly she turns around, her face red as she glares at him. "I'm.. I'm not uptight." Looking the other direction, she folds her arms over her chest and pouts. Uptight. Buh. She should leave. "And don't tell me to relax," she pauses, "if you're gonna be a tease." > .> [03:18] (no name) Lek winced as she spun around to face him and just gave this stupified look again as he stared blankly before blinking at her glare. Shifting painfully to sit upright with a small groan and grunt before listening to her. Giving a light smug look towards her more in a 'oh comon' fashion than rude before it vanished at being called a tease. Furrowing his brows a little as he scratched his nose, "What...?" [03:21] Lumiere: "Nothing. You're lucky you're injured," she mutters quietly as she faces foward, twiddling her thumbs in her lap: her nervous habit. She may have been acting confident today but, in reality, she doesnt do well with boys alone in situations like this. Oh boy if Usagi knew, she'd never hear the end of it. Then again, Usagi has no place to talk. She nods to herself, probably looking silly. [03:26] (no name) Lek frowned, scooting up even more as he sighed. He was about to say something but closed his mouth while watching her move about and... nod to herself. He looked around to try and see if there was a phone in her ear or anything before statting rather confused, "Uhhhh... you a-ight?" Shuffling in his pocket to take out his phone and look down at something before statted, being reminded after seeing names in his contacts. "Oh. Uhhh what was ya name again....dont think ya told me so... yea..." [03:28] Lumiere feels completely stupid, realizing that she'd never introduced herself and had been acting like this. "Oh, shit... Sorry. Uhm. I'm Lumiere. I've heard Cace say your name so..." Back to twiddilng her thumbs again. Stupid, stupid girl. :3 [03:30] (no name) Lek arched up his brow at it, "Uh Lu- wha- Lumuar?" When mentioning Cace he would just shrug with a light, "So...?" Not exactly understanding why she felt so sorry. Hyne knows he wouldn't feel sorry for something like that, or at least let it be shown :C [03:32] Lumiere: "Just call me Lum or Lumi or something." She pulls her legs up to her chest again like earlier, though she seemed less... Peppy? "So...? You don't need to introduce yourself to me. I know your name." [03:38] (no name) Lek frowned a little, "Well how ya say yur real name err.. full name. It's all ... fanceh and shit." He smiled a little and noting a song on the mp3 would play it with the volume barely audible for him so he could still continue a conversation. Although with knowing the song by heart he still bobbed to the beat while looked back to see her legs pulled up. Looking down and scratching at the side of his nose a little from the mention of his name, "Uh yea... everyone's cahls me dat... uhhh ya look hella uncomftabal like dat." He started to painfully shift again towards the edge of the bed like the boy was planning on standing. [03:40] Lumiere lays her head on her knees, facing away from him. "I'm not really that uncomfortable." She'd gotten quiet all of a sudden, wtf? D: Though, hearing him rustle, she starts to get up herself. Reaching out to him, putting her hand on his shoulder, she presses downward gently to gesture for him to stay put. [03:46] (no name) Lek plopped down from any progress and looked up at her with a frown, "Da hell... ya like a mom o' somethang?" He would start to motion and try to get up again with a painful grunt at the meds were probably wearing off by now, "Sit down on da bed or somethang... just lookin' at ya makes me uncomftabal." He sighed a little, even in offering her his bed he had to do it in a slightly rude fashion to try and hide being nice. :>

[03:47] Lumiere looks at him like, The Hell? "No? But you shouldn't be getting up so much, I'm fine, or I wouldn't sit here," she says, flailing an arm at him. "By the way, how are you feeling? Should I go get more of the medication or...?" Tilting her head to the side, she looks at him dead on yet again~ :o [03:53] (no name) Lek finally took off his hat and toss it to the ground like the infirmary was a bedroom. His hair cocklicked and tangled in hat hair before plopping his right hand on top and trying to comb it down as best he could, "Well I'm fine, it's not like I'm bleedin' ta death o' nothin'." Seeing the flailing arm he couldn't help but smile and let out a huff of breath in a soft laugh at it. "I guess.. startin' ta get worse again so drugs sound good to me." Flicking his tongue in his mouth to play with his piercings it would make the slightest clanking noise as it hit his teeth while not thinking much of it. Her dead on look just accompanied by his blank one. [03:56] Lumiere nodding, she hops up and makes her way towards the shelf, twiddling her thumbs the entire time. She could probably run off if he ever fell asleep, baw. [03:59] (no name) Lek waited until she left before lifting himself up in a soft groan to look over. Not being able to see her he would just move out of the bed and limp in a stumble towards the wall. Putting his back to it before sliding down with a painful grunt. [04:02] Lumiere fiddles around with the bottles on the shelf, trying to find the same ones from earlier. Seeing the bottle, she takes a few and heads back towards Lek after putting the bottle back in it's rightful place. "Here," quietly said, still. She leans over, hanging her arm over him as if she were going to drop them. "And, I told you not to get up. Are you dumb?" Even if she'd questioned his intelligence, she doesn't say it as if to be mean. [04:06] (no name) Lek scooted his back more comfortably to the wall as she started to come in and fiddled about with his phone to play it off. JUST ACT NATURAL. Looking over and stretching an open palm facing up for the pills, "Got wadder?" Hearing her again he just motioned towards the bed with a slightly annoyed look at being called dumb, "Well looks like ya gotta sit on da bed now. Dis comfy ahnyways so.... it ain't no thang." [04:07] Lumiere sighs as she takes off her glasses to rub the bridge of her nose. "Sit on the bed, or else?" She says it half assedly before turning around again, "I'll go get you something to take that with but, I won't let you have it if you're still on the floor when I come back." Mumble mumble. :< [04:09] Lumiere messing around with the shelves again, she takes a small cup and takes it to the sink. She looks over to her right to see if Lek's still sitting in the floor. >> [04:11] Lumiere checks her phone for a sec, turning red and quickly typing a reply. She shoves it back in her pocket in a flustered rush. "Buh." [ [04:13] (no name) Lek quirked the pierced brow at her while speaking a little more brusk, "What?" He just took a deep breath with a frown before easing up as she offered to get water. Shuffling on the ground as he started to take off his jacket. Why's he taking all his stuff off! D: Well it was night :> Grumbling and mumbling something in return in frustration as grunts were heard upon standing. Limping lightly towards the bed before sitting down on it and waiting for her. Hearing something he tried to peek over with a confused, "Wha-yasaysomethang?" [04:14] Lumiere: "N-no. Ugh..." Her head hits the wall lightly. Since she's leaning over it anyway, she gets Lek a bit of water and stands there with her head against the wall for a bit. Apparently Callista thought Lek was her boyfriend. That's... Laughable. [04:19] (no name) Lek quirked another brow and tried to lean over and peek, "Uhhhh don't kill yurself fo' damn waddah..." Especially after hearing the thud... what the hell was she doing over there anyways? Taking the water he looked at he just all the more confused and popped the pilled in his mouth. Tilting his back a little to gulp down the cup of water before looking at her again, "Ya nevah answered mah question ya'know. Bout how ta say yur full name." [04:21] Lumiere apparently already gave him the water so, she'd sit down next to him so he wouldn't say anything about it. "Loo-mi-air?" She shrugs. [04:25] (no name) Lek moved over to give her space so the girl wasn't so uptight about sitting down. Looking over to her a little confused, "Loo- mi- yeaaaaaaaaaar.. loo-mi-air?" He smirked a little after hearing himself, "See, told ya. Fancy ass name. It's.. pretty." [04:27] Lumiere scoots back towards him, to try and press his buttons. Totally under the assumption that he moved away for lulz. However, upon hearing that compliment, she blushes yet again. Easy blusher. :c "Th-thanks. It's a dead language." She shrugs again. [04:35] (no name) Lek looked over with a little smirk as she moved closer and only growing into a smile as she blushed, "Ye-" He turned a little and put a fist to his mouth to yawn. Looking back over and blinking more with a slight heavy feeling in his eyes, "Well..." When she wasn't looking he totally checked her out for a moment, "Ya go out wit dat ratboi right?" [04:37] Lumiere: "Hnn? Yeah. He got expelled though, we haven't been talking as much," she sighs. They're a really awkward couple, plus with all the recent events, they've been seeing each other less. "I dunno," she sighs again. "It's weird. It sorta feels like we're not dating at all and have slight cuddles fests on occasion." The phrase "cuddle fest" making her giggle a bit due to how stupid it must sound. "Why?" Turning to look at him, she props an arm up and rests her head in her palm. [04:44] (no name) Lek looked down and played with the loose threads on his bottom of his baggy shorts, "Uh yea..." He remembered how he reacted to her then, sounding a little down at the thought of the kid getting expelled and Lumi besides the headmaster that had threatened lives. Looking back over as she continued speaking, left leg near his chest while resting against it and the injured one hanging over. Hearing about not dating his eyebrow quirked and he seemed a little.. happier? D: Hearing the cuddle fests though and seeing her giggle he frowned. Getting the wrong assumption as he spoke, "Cuddles fests.. is that.. a new codeword now?" He gave her that goofy smirk of a slight tease all 'what have YOU been doing' look. [04:45] (no name) Lek never answered her question of Why :> [04:46] Lumiere blushes hardcore, waving her hands in front of her face, "N-no! It's nothing like that! We've only ever kissed twice and..." she looks down at her feet with an annoyed expression. "He's the only person I've ever kissed, and it's only been twice." [04:46] Lumiere didn't realize. :D [04:51] (no name) Lek laughed a little with a mischeivious smirk at her hands waving about, "AIght, gon't get yer-" hearing the rest it was a good thing he didn't finish that phrase. Looking a little in disbelief at her, "Really? So dat's yur first boifrend? ....twice... dat's it..?" His head lifted up a little in a tease, "Dat's why yur so uptight!" Lek let a soft, "Pffhfhfhf." Out before asking, "Why old are ya ahnyways?" [04:53] Lumiere rubs the back of her neck, still looking annoyed. "I'm seventeen and sorry that I don't have a bunch of experience under my belt with guys." She asks again, "Why? Huh? How about you? Got a girlfriend? How old are you? What do /you/ do with other people?" She leans towards him, getting in his face yet againnnnnn. "Why you so nosy?" = u= [05:00] (no name) Lek smiled at her getting her panties in a bunch again :> Which he wanted to say so badly if it wasn't for her already flipping about over something like a kiss. Hearing her chains of questions he would leaned away a little and laugh, "Chill chill.." Suddenly blushing a little at what he does with other people. Since as a teenage boy he would sort of think of naughtier things at least in a second or two D:! "Uhh wha-wait what?!" Leaning back even more as she leaned forward and frowning, "Me nosy? Ya da one wit all that questions! I don't gotta girlfriend, uhhh seventeen... and... what's dat sposa mean? What I do? If ya WANNA get into detail..." That probably sounded so wrong, and he knew it. The kid just smirked a little again and expected the girl to freak out some more. [05:02] Lumiere continues to intrude in his personal space by leaning forward still. "Well you're bombarding me with questions, why can't I bombard you with questions?" Her face is red for the millionth time, though she stopped trying to hide it a while ago. However, she does look particularly pissed. Or something. Who knows. "So? Huh? Why you gotta know so much about me if you're gonna get all blah on me." [05:08] (no name) Lek cocked his head a little in a 'holy fuck' manner Dx at her telling him off, "A-ight a-ight... calm yurself geerl." Seeing hear lean forward even more the boy's blush didn't seem to fade one bit. Frowning at her second line of questions, "What...? I ain't gotta know bout you! Was jus askin', chill out. Blah on you? PFffffffft what's dat even mean?! And why ya getting so close ?! HMMM?!" He stopped leaning away so they would be even closer and would bump into her with a higher pitch joking voice, "Jus gotta get cloooooooooosah?!" [05:08] Luctor just enters like a pimp. [05:10] Lumiere stops being stupid as soon as Lek stops moving away. "... You're really odd." Finally realizing what an idiot she is, she snaps back into place, pulling her legs up to her chest and glaring at him. "It doesn't matter." [05:15] (no name) Lek gave her a dumbstruck look of 'yea right' on being called odd, "Pssh okay, me? If yur face gets ahny redder ya gunna be like one of dem Bombs in da fire cave." Seeing her pout he frowned again, leaning into his own knee a little with a slight doze before pulling himself back up. [05:17] Luctor was just here to get some slreeping pills, he finally returned to being an field SeeD after months of staying in Garden, teaching kids.This time he wasnt faking being an sleepwalker last time so he could grope girls :c XD He was strasightforward this time.Taking his pills, he'd hear voiices in the nest room, and decided to check on Lek.And when he did..He stayed silenta nd wide eyed."Oh.Sorry.Carry on what'cha doing." He'd turn to leave. [05:19] (no name) Lek frowned softly, "Aye wha?! Nah I'm good. I ain't tired.. So ya only kissed him twice? Soooooooo yur pretty much as nub as dey get huh?" the slightest of a smirk as he joked about it. Wincing as he heard somebody and looked over towards Luctor with a slight blush coming back, "What's dat sposa mean?!"

[05:21] Lumiere shoots him yet another glare, "W-what? Am I supposed to throw myself at every available guy?" Turning away from him, she pouts . Her actions seem to repeat themselves a lot, huh... She paid no notice to Luctor and after looking back at Lek, wondered why in the world he'd blush at random. Dirty thoughts probably, the perv. D: [05:28] Luctor shrugs, with a misgiving smirk, a face shown when trolling someone."Oh, I thought I interrupted your fun.With an now obvious irish accent, he'd turn to talk towards Lumiere."Pardon me ingulgence..but a bonny lassy such as ye, wou'd be wasting herself'ith a smug lik'im. " He'd spit his tongue out to Lek."Healing already or not?" [05:30] Lumiere turns, confused with Lutor's accent. "P-pardon..?" o_o [05:32] (no name) Lek would have, before noticing Luctor, added to Lumiere only a smile and shake of his head, "Nah.. but... ya still nub.." When Luctor spoke though Lek seemed to change back into the smug look and brusk tone, "Wha-" Looking between him and Lumi before glaring at the instructor, "Yo watch yo mouf!" His anger was already seeming to come out rather quickly despite how much it didn't even show when Lumiere got poutty or cocky. Shifting in his seat a little with a dirty look like he was ready to stand and ignoring the healing question, "Dont call me smug man, want mah help and gunna start shit den ya not gettin' ahny!" [05:33] Maybel starts rooting around in the first aid box (where ever that is I assume here) cause she just got back from UFO hunting in the grasslands but fell out of a tree and now her leg is bleeding :c it's 5am so nurses are probably sleeping or something. She's making a lot of noise :> [05:45] Luctor would now give Lek an challenging cocky grin."Wonan go at'it, punk?! " " Luctor is just a troll, he wouldnt hurt an wounded person But the loud noises drew his attention and went to check out.Seeing maybel bleeding, he'd frown and nod to her."Let me help." He'd bash around for a bandage and disinfectant.He'd return with both and kneel before her with a smile."Stay still,it may sting abit." So he sprayed the wound and then wrapped the bandage around it :O [05:50] (no name) Lek stood up quickly only to stumble forward and grab the wall. Looking down at his right thigh like he was going to stab it for being injured >:C A small groan of pain as he turned to see Luctor leave and rose his voice, "Have fun wit dat solja bitch cause I ain't gunna help ya if ya wanna keep startin' shit!" Grunting angerly, not knowing where he went or why really :> and looking over at Teshak just to make sure he didn't wake the kid up. his voice remained brusk as he limped back to the bed to plop on it. Speaking too low for Luctor or Maybel to hear, "A disgrace o' a teacha, dat's what. He fuckin' rides his T-Board in da Garden. Should be fired." [05:54] Lumiere leans over and pokes Lek's side, "You should chill out, even if..." 'Cause god knows getting worked up, standing on a bad leg and not staying in bed with injuries is a bad thing. Mhm. Standing, she simply goes to the corner and sits on the stool there, watching Lek. "You didn't hurt yourself did you?" [05:59] (no name) Lek winced at her poke and pushed her away with a mutter, "Awha-yahey.." Still brusk but not nearly as he just was. Frowning he would just move to lay down as she moved towards the stool. Laying on his back and staring up at the ceiling he would take out the mp3 and turn it on. Leaving the volume low to hear her besides it only being in one ear to begin with, "Nnno." spoken a little blunt. He didn't nearly have that soft and playful mood to him like before. [06:01] Lumiere sighs as she swings her legs, not really sure what to say. "You sure you don't wanna sleep?" Though, she proabably coudn't sleep if he stopped talking to her, so she'd go roam the library and read a book. Something like that. She wasn't really going to stay here but, she was sure as hell going to make sure he stayed here. :| [06:02] (no name) "No propblem.Did it hurt much?" Luctor said with another smile. He was wondering why such a cute little girl was out that late in the night, on top, bleeding.He didn't know much about Maybel, he only first met her at the docks,and gave her food, after learning she was the long missing abducted child by those Galbadians.Plus, she didn't look older than 14,15 maximum to him D: " Well, what were you doing up this late?It's past the curfew." He'd alos troll at them couple inside..cause he can.."AS A MATTER OF FACT..I DONT NEED SOMEONE TO HELP THAT CANT EVEN CONSFICATE ONE THING>Nyahahaa!" Anyway, he'd giggle abit and turn to Maybel awaiting for a answer [06:03] Lumiere continues to be confused by Luctor; thus she ignores him. [06:10] (no name) Lek seemed more awake anyways with his blood at least slightly boiling, "Nah. I ain't tired." Hearing Luctor raise his voice he would slide the mp3 bar quickly to blast the music and drown out most of what Luctor said before a low and brusk that only Lumiere could probably hear with how grumbled it was in his throat, "Probley lost dat sword ahnyway cause ya cant keep it down perv.." He at least didn't shout and rage back like usual since Lumiere and Teshak were there. [06:12] Moon (rafiel.sporaciao): fuckin' perv* D: [06:14] Lumiere frowns, "Aye, chill..." Lek's not very fun when he's pissed. He needs to stop that. He needs to stop that right now. D:< Starting up her usual habit of twiddling her thumbs, she begins to look around the room, feeling terribly awkward. [06:22] (no name) Lek looked over to her with a glare before it eased up with a deep breath. A small frustrated grunt on the exhale before he murmured a softer, "I'm fine." With some more time and calming himself the boy would yawn and look over at her. Lowering the volume a little he lazily kicked off his chucks by pushing at the back and sliding them over the edge of the bed. Peeking over at her again with a more relaxed look, "Ya really jus gunna sit dere da whole time?" [06:24] Lumiere: "Hnn? Well, yeah. I told you I would. What do you expect me to do?" She shrugs, continuing to twiddle her thumbs. Still feeling rather awkward, she didn't really look at him as she spoke but instead was staring at the ceiling. Like that's gonna help. "I dunno, if you wanna leave the infirmary again, that's fine I guess. Just can't go anywhere terribly far." [06:27] Luctor looked back into the room, or atleast in that generic area and sighed."Well, then I'm expecting 140 gil for that painkiller." :c Ussually he wouldn't ask, but Lek's an ass xD.Then he smiled at Maybel."Well..you don't have to say.." He'd kinda lean in and whisper to her, so only her could hear."..cause there is a DC there.If he asks, I'll cover for you." It is strange that a SeeD is going against the Headmaster, and ontop, an Ex-Instructor.But He sucks ass :c [06:30] (no name) Lek started to get tired again as he calmed down and yawn even again with a few blinks. Smirking a little at her question, "Well... ta not sit in da... nevermind.." Seeing her twiddle the thumbs about he felt a little bothered. He started to get the idea that e probably made things awkward. "Well... uhhh..." The boy went quiet for awhile and frowned, grumling a little as he forced the word out that he rarely used, "Sss....sorry." frowning instantly after using it and shrugged, "Well with yur uptight nub kissing bomb face two steps out da infirm is too far fir you." He wouldn't have heard Luctor's remark because he had did have louder music at the time :C [06:33] Lumiere laughs, covering her face with her scarf again at his apology. It sounded funny and she wasn't sure why he'd apologized. "You tell me not to apologize so much and then you turn around and apologize for no reaso--" Nub kissing bomb face... What. "Aye. It's not my fault that I'm 'nub' at it, whatever that means..." Just like earlier, she tugs her scarf over her face because she can feel herself blushing agaaaaain. Holy shit, Lumi. Suddenly she cares again, too. "Should I make fun of you, too? Huh?" > 3> [06:41] (no name) Lek frowned as she laughed and just ended up blushing a little, "Wh-what's so funneh!?" hearing her explaination he poutted even more and plopped onto his back again, "I had a reason, I got mad. So... yea..." Smirking a little towards her in a more teasing voice, "Yea it is, bet he'd kiss ya if ya weren't so uptight!" He was starting to get use to seeing her pull up the scarf and even in this short time with Lumi doing the action over what seemed like a dozen times it was getting expected of her. Frowning again at making fun of him, "Hey. I don't apologize often." He looked at his mp3 and poutted with a grumble, "So just... enjoy it while it lasts..." [06:43] Moon (rafiel.sporaciao): dont apologize much* [06:44] Lumiere: "Eh!?" she squeaks loudly. Practically ripping her hands away from the scarf, she points at him. Totally flustered. "I-I'm not uptight! And.. And, ugh! It's not my fault." Her excitement quickly turns into a quiet mumble. "He's just not really the kissing type, I think." 'Cause Marcus is really awkward and stuff. D: [06:46] Luctor frowns since Lek didn't answer and now Maybel was looking for food in her bag."...I think you should eat in your dorm.Its kinda late too.School will open in 3 hours afterall." [06:48] (no name) Lek grinned a little, "Not uptight... says da one flailin' all ova da room about a kiss." Hearing about it being because Marcus wasn't the kissing type he looked over a little confused, "What...? So what is he, a priest o' somethang?" [06:50] Lumiere ponders it for a moment, the action being obvious from her facial expressions while doing so. "Uhmmm... Well, he's not really a relationship person in general, now that I think about it. He's very.. stoic?" She shrugs, propping her arm up on her leg again as she leans forward to rest her head in her hand. "We just don't kiss much," she pauses, looking at Lek for a few moments. "Does being uptight make me unkissable or something?" [07:01] (no name) Lek rolled his shoulder a little with another soft yawn and still seeming dumbstruck, "Stoic?" He flipped out his phone and totally googled that word, "Uhhh endures pain widout showin feelins'? What's dat gotta do widda relations..oh wait.." He seemed to have found the rest of the definition or read the rest of the same one, "Uhhh so he's a robot?" Lek arched a brow and looked more towards her and when she mentioned not kissing much he let out a quick, "Psssh. He's dumb. I mean... He must be gay or somethang ta not wanna kiss ya.." Putting the phone back in his pocket he would start to remove the piercings in case he did pass out, "What?" Lek looked over at her question and stared blankly, looking at her with softer eyes before looking to the ceiling again. Undoing the piercings on the brim of his nose, "I don't mean it like dat.. if ahnythang it jus means ya need ta be kissed mo' or ya'know... get laid.. but you don't seem like dat kinda chick.." He smirked a little and awaited some kind of flailing [07:01] (no name) about from her before adding, "Guys usually like innocent geerls so... it jus makes ya mo' cute."

[07:06] Lumiere sits quietly, listening to what Lek has to say. When she asks if he's a robot, she sorta bursts out laughing. "I've totally called him that before~!" Glad to know that someone agrees, even if Marcus just turned into an awkward boyfriend robot... thing. Though, once he starts mentioning how he's dumb and all that rot, she looks the other way. You could probably guess why. Mhm. "I'm not cute," she mumbles, flailing her arm half-assedly in his direction. [07:06] Lumiere adds, "And if you're tired, sleep dammit." [07:14] (no name) Lek removed the three and would try to roll on his side aaand that wasn't happening. Besides it already being a pain when twirking the neck it caused the most problem in using shoulder muscles which when he tried to use to get the piercings on the bedpost he would just grunt and groan in pain. Almost rolling off the bed just to succeed with a quite and huffed, "Ah shit.." Before grunting back on his back and just staring at the ceiling. Thinking he might not want to do that for every set of piercings. Moving to his eyebrows to take those out and laughing a little, "Yea.. I think I heard him talk befo' too if I'm thinkin' of the right guy..wait yea the redhead ratboi right? He.. talks... like that sam program on my computer I swear." Taking the eyebrow piercing out fully he moved to his ears. He had alot of piercings! hearing not cute the boy looked over and just glared at her, "Really? Ya still gunan say dat?" Groaning he looked ready to facepalm, "What's up wit women and not takin' a compliment when dey [07:15] (no name) get one? Ya'know... if alotta guys call ya hot.. den ya probley hot. Or else dey wouldn't say that, would they?" Upon her add he would simply put a blunt but playful, "Nope." To the comment. [07:21] Lumiere pouts as she stands, then leaning over him. "You want help with that? You're makin' a lot of noise. Can't be good." Though, without waiting for him to consent, she starts gently removing piercings. "And yes, the rat boy. He's not particularly fond of you, but you knew that." Then again, it's not like Marcus knows when it's apropriate to open his mouth. Aghhh that guy. "He means well though, usually." Holding open her hand, she motions for him to give her the rest of the piercings he'd taken out so she could put them aside. "Yes, I will say that." <Ya'know... if a lotta guys call ya hot. Den ya probley hot. Or else dey wouldn't say that, would they?> "Well it's not like I get that a lo--" Cue blushing, again. D: [07:34] (no name) Lek plopped a hand over his face, "Ahwhat?!" Now he was the one hiding behind something as she started to remove piercings. Blushing a little embarassed as the boy tensed up, "Uh..... N-no whayadoin'?! Ijusthadtroubelgettingemonthathingahhhhhwaitstop!" He would try to manuever away, feeling really strange and shy to have her touching at his face DX He would put two hands over his face and try to cover ears and mouth where there were the only piercings left which made his hand position look like he was reenacting some squid trying to eat his face. Muffling through his hands at her, "Jus... put them.... on tha... bedpost..." Taking a deep breath and easing up a little he just frowned, "I know, nothin' new fo' me. He dunno when ta shut it though..." Yea that was pretty much all their arguments anyways, "He's like a walkin' spellchecka and tries ta act like he's smarter den everyone else..." Looking over with a pout at the open hand before plopping literally around 12 or so piercings from just his ears and [07:34] (no name) and mouth into her hand and some even being connect by three rings which made it more of 3 piercings than one anyways. Peeking up at her with a blank look, "Really? Den they jus scurred da tell ya up front. Cause well... yur hot. So stop thinkin' ya ain't." [07:37] Lumiere continues to blush as she walks to the other side of the bed to place them where he'd said to. Who was she to get flustered by some flirt's comments. She shakes her head, placing them on the bedpost. "Hnnng.." [07:41] (no name) Lek watched her and added a rather quick, "Thanks." that could barely be heard before looking to his mp3. His face probably looked a whole lot different without piercings filling it up, "Somethang wrong?" [07:43] Lumiere: "Hn? Nothing. Why?" Back to twiddling her thumbs. Yep. "I need to get a grip," she says quickly under her breath, hoping he wouldn't pick up on it. "Tired, maybe?"

[07:47] (no name) Lek shrugged, "Ya kinda go 'hnnn' or somethang before goin' quiet so... was jus askin'.." Yea he would notice something small like that D: "What dat like.. yur thinkin' noise? Nahaha." Smiling a little now before hearing.... whatever it was. "What?" He leaned forward like she was going to repeat it for him, "Ya meet a ... rip... or..." If she didn't answer he wouldn't push it after noticing her quick response of something else that probably meant the mumbling wasn't something she wanted heard. Which he knew quite a bit about as a mumbler himself, "Uhhh I guess. I'll jus shutup and sleep if yur dat tired." [07:51] Lumiere repeats herself quietly, "I need to get a grip, I said." Yeahhh, she's not looking at him after she says that. Not sure if she should leave, she looks about nervously, feeling sillier than eariler. Yay, awkward Lumi.

[07:53] Lumiere: "And I'm not that tired. So you don't have to shut up if you don't want to?" Facepalming, she sits down on the floor against the wall, looking up at him.

[07:59] (no name) Lek stops for a moment and watches her, blinking a few times before a smile overcame him. "Damn..." Shaking his head a little about who know D8 When she got all quiet and nervous he was too sure how to react himself in calming her down. "Get a grip frrrooom... T-Boardin'?" He wanted to say something that made her think he was 100% dumbfounded at the sentence although that was the best lie he could come up with at the time. He was usually a good liar, frowning a little and wondering what the hell was his problem. As she talked about not shutting up the boy watched her facepalm. Groaning a little frustrated he would roll painfully near the edge so he could see her better, "Aight well.. ya shuld no I ain't gunna shutup so if ya ain't tired... heh...I feel mad dumb layin' on da bed like some damsel and ya on da floor..." [08:03] Lumiere gives him a look as if he's stupid, "T-Boarding...?" Though, she appreciates his attempt of acting stupid and laughs a little bit. That laugh kinda dies when he starts rolling over to face her, "Oi. Don't move so much--" Haha. Damsel. He speaks really funny, but it's cool. "Sounds fine but, don't. You're injured, I'm not. Only makes sense." All the while, she continues to watch him. What a creeper. ;-; [08:03] Lumiere: "Don't feel dumb, I mean." [08:11] (no name) Lek rubbed at his hair a little and tried to play it off and have the act of stupidity make some sense, "Uhhnnheh yea... ya'know... ya gotta grip the edge of da board... ta do tricks.. and shit..." He gave a weak smile which he wasn't one to ever fake a smile so it just looked completely failed. Although her laugh eased him up again. He still rolled anyways :> and stayed there despite her complaining about it, "Yea? Welllllllll thaaaaaaaaaaat's yuuuuuuuuuuur opinion." Yea he used that phrase in a lot of arguements but the tone and stretch of the words sounded more joking. "Ya coulda jus gotta... i'dunno... not like I'm restin' much.. da- er.. well.. Ermmmmmmm nevermind.." About 3 sentences went through his had and he just REJECTED them all to keep her from thumb twiddling again D: or maybe to keep him from doing that too :C [08:15] Lumiere smiles at him, laughing again as he fails to think of something to say. "Thanks. Sorry, I'm being really weird, and I need to take your advice and relax," she sighs. 'Cause flirty DC boy who's flirtier with her than her own boyfriend is so tempting.

[08:22] (no name) Lek frowned a little at the thanks since the tough ext.....nah it's a chick it's okay :> He lightened up again and quirked a brow at her apologizing again, "Well why ya wierd.. I mean... somein' up?" He looked looked down at the light starting to shine on the floor and peeked to the ceiling, "Uhhhh what time isit?"

[08:23] Lumiere takes her scarf and throws it in his face, "I don't wanna say-- Ah..." she pulls her phone out of her pocket and flips it open to check, "About 8:30AM. Holy shit." [08:30] (no name) Lek closed his eyes and just lie there like a sitting duck as the scarf plopped on his face and laughing a little he could smell her which made.. his cheeks flush the slightest before taking the scarf from his face. After asking her about the time her would have remembered he had a phone too and reached for it with a, "Wait no nevermind I got da...." although as she pulled her phone out faster he put his back all :| "Nevermind.." looking over see to hear the time and letting out a softer tone, "Nahaha, damn woman. Talk 'bout me gettin' sleep and den keepin' me up all night!" to add to the tease he would grunt a little pain while holding onto the scarf and moving it to the opposite side, "Well.. dis is mine now. Ya break it, ya buy it!" [08:34] Lumiere frowns, blushing a bit, "Sorry. I honestly did mean to get you to sleep." As he claims her scarf, she stares at him blankly. "You like girly scarves?" [08:37] (no name) Lek shrugged, "I don't care, it was fun so... don't matter if I slept o' not.." When hearing about him liking girly scarves he tried to explain himself, "nah nahnah I mean ya tried ta wack DA FACE-" even if his back was turned he would motion to his whole head, "So ya gotta pa-" He just... gave up.. because the more he explained the more idiotic it sounded and would roll over withh :| expression before he tossed it back at her, "There. You win." [08:40] Lumiere smirks, tossing it back in his face a second time, "Noooo. I broke it, apparently." His antics were pretty cute, agh. At least she was kinda coming to her senses? Though she really should stop. "Changed your mind or something?" [08:44] (no name) Lek pouted a little, "Nah ya didn't break mah face, DIS-" He motioned to by spinning a finger around the whole head while facing her this time before opening his palm and without touching his face made a carwashing motion, -" IS UNSTOPPABLE!" He made that stupid smile again before speaking, "Change mah mind fir what?" [08:46] Lumiere giggles, "Okay, okay." Raising her arms in surrender, she sticks her tongue out at him, "Keeping that girly scarf.? Iunno. I have others." Though she isn't really sure why he'd wanna keep it. Unless he likes polkadots? [08:50] (no name) Lek flattened his brows with a soft smile from her tongue sticking out, "Huh?" He looked at it and back to her blankly before tossing it towards Lumi, "Why would I keep it? Was jus playin'... Unless ya gotta nice dress ta match it fo' mi?" He quickly shook his hands in the air, "Aaaand now now that was a joke! Don't .... er... yea don't ... say .. wow.. that sounded mad gay.." He just.. facepalmed and tried to make sure Teshak wasn't awake to spread a rumor like that. [08:55] Lumiere wraps the scarf back around her neck as she laughs, "You're funny. And I'm sorry that I'm asking again but, you sure you don't feel like sleeping?" She felt like she should ask, considering what time it is. [08:57] (no name) Lek wasn't sure what was up with him, he's a goof but even moreso now it seemed. It was like watching what he said to prevent from embarassing her just lead to embarassing himself. Giving a quirked smile at being called funny since it just seemed like he was making a fool of himself, "Nnnnnnnthanks.." Rubbing at his eyebrow a little since it felt odd having piercings out sometimes D: He peeked to the light and back to her, "Nah man, I went through like... a tired mode and now dat it passed I'm not even sleepeh no mo'" [08:59] Lumiere scoots closer to his bedside, leaning against it. "You sure? 'Cause I'll sit here and talk to you for days if you let me." [09:02] (no name) Lek watched her scoot closer and laughed a little, "Nahahaha.. yea I'm shur, trust me ba- " He played off a word he was about to say and played with the hole in his lip before continuing, "If I really am tired I'd pass out while yo' talkin' so eitha way da talkin' not gunna botha me.. unless yur gunna yell at me da whole time or somethang. But I doubt it." [09:06] Lumiere looks up at him, grinning widely. "Cause I yell at you all the time." If she really wanted to, she could apologize for their past encounters but. Meh. He'd probably tell her otherwise or somethin'. That and, she didn't feel like she needed to for the first couple times she'd bitched at him. 8D Haha. "Thanks though, talking to you has made me feel better. Yesterday wasn't terribly bad but, I wasn't in a great mood." She adds, with a nervous chuckle, "I know better than to bitch at Cace." [09:13] (no name) Lek grinned a little himself, "Well.." Rubbing at his hair a little while looking around the room, "Yur not dat bad... I mean.. well.. I can tell ya I got alotta geerls here who...derr good at yellin'... trust me.." He frowned a little and rubbed at the brown and yellow bruise healing on his face. Blinking a little confused at the thanks, "What.... I.. did..? Uhhhhh... okay..." He couldn't really remember the last time someone said he actually made them feel better. "What happened yestahday?" Whenever Cace was mentioned he would look off a little before back to her, "Uhhh it was cool. I mean. You sayin' shit ta him.." His voice was quieter, he didn't want to really admit that he probably can't do that. [09:17] Lumiere pokes Lek's nose, giving him an odd look. "Uhm. If you wanna hear about it, I can tell you I guess." It was a particularly serious talk that she'd had with Usagi and well, eh. She felt kinda dumb by the end of it and it ruined her mood for the day, basically. "Eh, but.. Cace is my sister's friend. There's a reason, ya know? He's also my superior in the DC. I need to respect him, even if he pisses me off." [09:21] (no name) Lek went crosseyed when following the finger and starting to move back before it was too late, "Nawha?" rubbing at his nose a little with a frown as he listen. "Uhhh sure I guess.." He wasn't sure how to answer something like that since most female friends he had were... bitches to say the least. Shrugging lightly about Cace, "Yea but... it still took balls.. or .. ovaries.. ovary balls." He paused for a moment before realizing what he said and laughing about it. [09:23] Lumiere laughs with him, finding him to be weirdly charming with his Stupid-Lek-Speak. Mhm. That's what it is. "Wellllll... So, it's like this," she starts. "I'm from Dollet, like I said. 'Rents have a shop and we're pretty comfy. Big family, really close. Never had any issues till I decided I wanted to go train in a Garden, right?" She waits for his reaction before continuing. :o [09:26] (no name) Lek still smiled the slightest even of a centimeter as she started to tell the story, his eyes fixated on her while she spoke. Blinking a few times with a light nod to each key point although Lek being almighty curious he treated it like some story telling show with a questioning, "What kinda shop?" [09:30] Lumiere starts to continue but pauses, smiling a bit. "Does that matter? It's a general shop. Cace used to sell his dad's pelts to us. S'how he knows my sister." Leaning forward a bit more, she reaches up to his face and pinches his cheeks, "But the point is, I was on hella good terms with my family before I decided I wanted to come here.' She rolls her eyes as she lets go. "They want me to stay home and stuff like that. Take care of shop, go get married to a nice boy and let men handle the fighting. They're so old fashioned. It's like they're relics." <Insert Lumi bitching about shit here>

[10:32] (no name) Lek smirked a little, "Nah it's cool.." watching her burry in the blankets or whatnot he would just look at her with a 'wtf are you doing' look. The description of offing herself made him rather puzzled, "Uhhhh..." Hearing it continue he would frown a little, "Selfish..? What's offing mean?" The boy rubbed at his hair a little embarassed from the question but knowing himself he would think of the complete opposite of what it actually meant. [10:33] Lumiere: "I felt like killing myself? How do you not know what offing yourself means? Buh." She kinda just stays still, hiding her face from him. :T
