#ooc also todd trying so damn hard to get stick and cam to just TALK to each other

i'll try my best. you should get one too while you're at it; i know you like giving gifts, but i think you should get something for yourself sometime.

you're right on that front-- i apologize. i don't want to make compliments to neil just to subtly degrade myself. i know neil would hate that, and it cheapens what i'm saying about him, too. as for the rest of your message, i, i don't really know how to respond? nobody has said those things about me before? thank you, but really, you don't need to say any of that. m-maybe you should try writing some poetry of your own. you certainly have the talent for it, haha. (please don't gasp.)

you know, cameron had a similar reaction. he's really not a big fan of dirt, either. it took some convincing, but now he brings an old blanket to sit on so his clothes stay clean. im sure he wouldn't mind sharing it with you. you should ask him-- carpe diem, after all!

unfortunately, if it's lovesickness you're looking to get away from, im afraid that neil and i's dorm might...not be the best option. not that we wouldn't love to have you there, of course!! you're always welcome; just, uh, remember to knock.

just noticed that stick is the shortest student that mr. keating has lmao
