Welcome to your life - Pt 2:

Acting On Your Best Behaviour Ch 3:

Summary:

They'd seen it in their fellow orphans often enough to recognise the pattern and were now forced to admit, despite their hopes to the contrary, that Isidora had likely suffered similar side effects.

No… they'd always known she had. The Keeper had just wanted the power that Ranrok had, enough to convince themselves that they would be able to handle it better than that naive woman.

With the start of the Keeper’s sixth-year in Hogwarts, comes a whole slew of headache-inducing challenges from the most unexpected of places. Between insignificant pests throwing wrenches into their plans and tedious teenage drama, that the Keeper is entirely unprepared for, they wonder if they'll make it to their NEWTs without losing their sanity.

Or worse, Ominis or Sebastian.

Warnings: Sebastian x MC x Ominis! Drug Addiction! Spoilers! Slow-burn corruption! Dark content! Fucked up 1800s orphanages! MC has no love for Anne or Solomon! Dubious happy ending (it's happy for MC, Seb and Ominis at least).

You can also read on AO3! (chapter specific warnings below)

Notes:

Warnings: Cuddles! And that 'drug addiction' AO3 tag is on this second installment's tag list for a reason, so trigger warnings for that sort of thing!

Also, big announcement! I will be taking a three week break from posting, because my wonderful partner who is both my muse and my beta, is going on an overseas University grad trip holiday! So, I'm taking a holiday too!

Or well, more like I'm going to take the time to work on my DnD campaign and stock piling chapters for this fic too, this chapter literally just finished editing today, and I like having a few chapters of buffer before my uploads.

So, this'll be good for me, hope ya'll understand and don't worry, in the words of everyone's favorite T-800, I'll be back!

As Sunday drew closer, the Keeper found themselves experiencing a strange sense of anticipation, not unlike the feeling they'd get when approaching a pensive after completing one of the Elder Keepers' Trials.

The feeling only grew as the day finally arrived. Even Sebastian seemed excited as the three of them flooed to Feldcroft, shadowed by their stalkers as always. The Keeper found it beyond frustrating that the floo system required that its users loudly and clearly proclaim their destination for all to hear, but regardless.

As they made their way to the house, the Keeper felt their anticipation peak. Making it difficult to contain their eagerness as they pushed open the door, their eyes immediately drawn to the brick they'd hidden the last jar behind.

"Looks like the idiots got waylaid by the Ndiaye twins." The Keeper barely heard Sebastian as they strode quickly over to the wall, waving their wand to accio the brick out of the way.

"At least we'll have some proper privacy now." Ominis' voice was tinged with relief.

The Keeper sighed as they took the jar into their hands. It was so tempting to just partake of its contents immediately, but they were here to rest, a boost right now wouldn't make sense. Surely, they would be better served saving it for later, but somehow, having it in their hands made that hard to remember, as they stared at the energy swirling invitingly in its containment.

Suddenly, a pair of arms draped over their shoulders and the Keeper jolted in surprise. How had they not noticed Sebastian's approach-

"What have you got ther- oh, you still had a jar left?" Sebastian's voice was merely curious, but the Keeper felt strangely defensive at his words.

"Well, two is one and one is none. I always plan for contingencies." The Keeper tried to pass it off casually with a dismissive wave as they shoved the jar into their pouch.

"...did you suggest coming here just to retrieve that?" Ominis asked hesitantly, his suspicion barely concealed.

The Keeper had to force themselves not to tense, since Sebastian would most certainly feel it. "Of course not, it just happened to be a secondary goal I took into consideration."

Ominis didn't look all that convinced but mercifully dropped the topic, sitting on the bed and holding a hand out. "Alright… then come, I can hear your feet dragging. You must be exhausted."

Sebastian nodded in agreement, removing himself from their back and guiding the Keeper towards the bed with a hand on their waist. With a fond sigh, the Keeper allowed themselves to be led, taking Ominis' hand, and letting him pull them down to the bed with him.

Ominis smiled as he sat against the headboard, guiding the Keeper to rest their head on his lap, stroking his long fingers through their hair. Forcing themselves to not think about the jar, the Keeper took a deep breath, focusing instead on the soothing sensation and allowing their mind to drift as Sebastian also climbed onto the bed.

"Finally." Sebastian sighed contentedly, as he wiggled under their arm, snuggling up against the Keeper's side and resting his head on their shoulder.

It was surprising how much he'd missed cuddling with his partners over a single month. Not that he was a particularly cuddly guy, he just, well, it was nice. It was… comforting to be able to hold his loved ones close, to have Ominis and the Keeper safely in his arms, knowing that they weren't going anywhere.

Over the holiday, Sebastian had gotten used to having the ability to freely soothe the anxiety, that would randomly attack him during the day, by pulling one of them close. While the three of them had still gotten to spend time together during meals and classes, it wasn’t enough, and the stalking had proven to be incredibly intrusive. None of them could feel comfortable, knowing that they were being watched.

Which deity had they pissed off to the point that the Keeper was sharing all their classes with either Macnair or Selwyn? Fine, the chances were already high, purely because the Keeper was taking so many NEWTs in the first place, but he still didn't like it anyway.

It felt too much like how Anne had been shadowed by their uncle all over again. Unable to have a peaceful moment just being with the Keeper and Ominis, without the stress of knowing someone was just waiting for one of them to fuck up and give the bullies leverage against the three.

It helped that he could still spend some time alone with Ominis, but he missed the long hours he'd spent running through the forest, along the coast and over the mountains with the Keeper.

Last year had been full of stress, pain, and fear, but fighting alongside the Keeper, doing everything they could to reach their goals, had kept him going. Looking back, he almost missed it, for the freedom they'd had.

Sebastian admittedly hadn't expected the Keeper to be quite as affected as they seemed, drifting from class to class and errand to meal, in a distant daze, looking exhausted. He'd also noticed that the Keeper had suddenly developed an entire range of tics, from bouncing their knee, to digging at the skin around their nails.

In all the time he'd known the Keeper, they had rarely shown anything less than confidence, only dropping their stoic facade when in battle. So, it was disturbing seeing them so unsettled, and Sebastian had never been at such a loss for what to do. At least with Anne, there was a clear objective, a problem that needed solving. Here, he couldn’t even tell what precisely was distressing the Keeper.

He could tell that this was wearing on Ominis too. Ominis had always been sensitive to the feelings of people around him and, as an overthinker, he was never very good at dealing with prolonged stress.

Sebastian hated not being able to alleviate any of the stress his partners were under. He couldn’t even help the Keeper with the bullies since he and Ominis were already targets as well.

At this point, the Keeper was spending more of their weekends with Poppy and Natsai than with Ominis and himself. It burned, knowing that he couldn’t help more than two girls who didn't even know what was going on.

Speaking of Poppy, now that he was paying more attention, he'd quickly noticed what Ominis had been speaking about. She was just a little too… eager around their Keeper. She hadn't done anything 'bad' but there was definitely something irritating about the way she kept trying to catch the Keeper's attention.

Worse still, was that the Keeper never really rejected her advances. They'd deflected her invitations occasionally, but the Keeper never firmly put her in her place, and now that they were accepting her invitations more often than not, Poppy had been getting bolder.

She'd even interrupted a conversation between the Keeper and himself on Tuesday! The nerve, strolling up to them to invite the Keeper to a butterbeer at the Three Broomsticks on Saturday. It stung when the Keeper seemed unbothered by the intrusion and even proceeded to accept her invitation, right in front of him.

Sebastian understood that the Keeper had an easier time keeping the bullies busy with company, and that accepting Poppy's invite had given him a chance to oversee the construction of the secondary gate yesterday.

Didn't mean he liked the fact that the Keeper had basically rewarded Poppy for being rude towards him.

"Can't sleep?" Ominis' voice interrupted Sebastian's thoughts, he wondered for a moment if Ominis was speaking to him, but it wasn't likely since he wasn't the one here to sleep.

"You could tell?" The Keeper sighed, their voice rumbling into Sebastian's ear, pressed against their chest.

"You have a few tells when you sleep." Sebastian could hear the smile in Ominis' tone.

"Do I? Like what?" The Keeper asked curiously as Sebastian opened his eyes to peer at his partners lazily.

Ominis chuckled, flashing a mischievous grin. "If I told you, I would no longer be able to tell when you're actually sleeping."

The Keeper snorted in amusement, running the fingers of their left hand through Sebastian's hair. "Fair."

Sebastian opened his mouth, words on his tongue when he was interrupted again, this time, by muffled voices from outside the house.

"...came here just to… haven't visited us since… and now… all day… here watching… instead!?" An indignant feminine voice reverberated through the window.

"...not that babe… mudblood… dangerous… protecting…" That sounded like Macnair.

"...attacked us… stay away… for…" That was a bit harder to make out but the cajoling voice was most likely Selwyn.

"...can't believe this!" Another feminine voice shouted.

"Wait babe!" Selwyn called out, and the sounds of footsteps faded into the distance.

Sebastian rolled his eyes at the bits of conversation he'd made out. "Sounds like those idiots are getting scolded for neglecting their girlfriends while stalking us."

"Good, serves them right." Ominis muttered irritably.

Sebastian grinned. "Wonder if we should have given the twins the porn mags I found in their trunks. That would have been fun to watch."

"Ugh, no thanks, I wouldn't even want to touch them." Ominis wrinkled his nose in disgust.

"You guys found porn?" The Keeper asked in a bemused tone.

"For once, I was glad to be blind." Ominis sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger.

"It was pretty bad." Sebastian chuckled. "The women in them were all ridiculously disproportionate, there was one with breasts larger than the stew bowl at dinn-"

"Merlin Sebastian! Finishing that description will surely make my ears bleed.” Ominis exclaimed, pressing his hands over his ears protectively. “I'm already blind, I don't want to go deaf too!"

The Keeper burst into laughter. "And there goes your mental image of bowls."

Ominis groaned as he lowered his hands. "Honestly, I can't say if my mental image of anything is accurate after growing up with this one."

"I am absolutely offended, I should like to think that my analogies are perfectly accurate." Sebastian protested, sitting up and crossing his arms indignantly.

"It's called tact, Sebastian. Not everything should be perfectly accurate." Ominis rolled his eyes.

"Aha! So, you do admit that my descriptions are accurate!" Sebastian beamed triumphantly.

The Keeper grinned fondly, propping themselves up on an elbow and reaching up to pat Sebastian on the head. "Yes love, they're perfectly accurate."

"...somehow when you say it like that, it no longer feels like a good thing." Sebastian replied in a flat monotone, the petulant air around him tickling one of the Keeper’s favourite rare chuckles from Ominis.

The Keeper had first heard Ominis laugh that way while searching for the Scriptorium entrance and it still bothered them how much they'd liked the sound. Even more upsetting was the fact that they hadn’t found a way to consistently coax that sound from him.

"Are you sure you don't want to try to sleep more?" Ominis' concerned voice interrupted their wandering thoughts as he brushed a hand over the Keeper’s cheek, feeling the heavy bags under their eyes.

The Keeper smiled ruefully, that was a tone they liked much less. Yet another odd occurrence was how much it bothered them, hearing Ominis worried. They'd never been all that concerned with other people's feelings, as long as it didn't come back to bite them in the ass, but these two boys somehow kept managing to garner strange reactions from them.

Sadly, the Keeper couldn't do anything about it this time, they'd tried their best and really couldn't sleep. Perhaps if they'd managed to fool Ominis, they'd have continued lying down, but that certainly hadn't panned out.

"It's alright, it's enough for me to spend a few hours relaxing with the two of you." The Keeper sighed, pressing a kiss against Ominis' palm.

Ominis shivered slightly at the softness against his sensitive hands but relented with a sigh. "I suppose that will have to do."

The Keeper smiled, pleased to have successfully consoled him. They'd had some concern that Ominis would regret calling them out on their attempt to feign sleep.

"It's almost one, maybe we should have something to eat." Sebastian suggested helpfully.

The Keeper hummed agreeably. "Not a bad idea, and since our stalkers seem occupied out of earshot, perhaps it's also a good time for me to get a proper report from Tynx…"

"Whatever happened to relaxing?" Ominis sighed as he shook his head.

"There are still many hours in the day, surely we can spare a moment." The Keeper waved a hand dismissively as they properly sat upright on the edge of the bed. "Tynx, Tibsy."

Ominis sighed again as the elves appeared with a pop.

Tibsy took one look at the Keeper and immediately her eyes widened with concern. "Is Master ill?"

The Keeper shook their head, ignoring the vindicated glance Ominis levelled at them. "I'm alright Tibsy, just tired. Please prepare a hearty lunch for us."

"Yes Master!" Tibsy squeaked eagerly and began shuffling towards the kitchen area, disappearing behind the dividing curtain.

The Keeper turned to Tynx, who was also regarding them with a concerned and searching gaze. "And Tynx, I would like a full report."

The elf hesitated for a moment but nodded professionally. "Yes, Master. We've been making good progress with the castle grounds. The outer wall foundations have been laid and we are beginning to work on the walls themselves. We have currently finished the first and second gate segments and are slowly constructing the rest from that point outwards."

"How soon do you think the walls will be completed?" The Keeper asked thoughtfully.

"At our current pace, I'd say the construction of the outer walls will likely take another two or three months depending on weather conditions." Tynx replied with a firm nod.

"Hm, very well, continue." The Keeper frowned, they had hoped that development of the castle would go faster during the school year but with only one of them being available to aid the elves in the construction every weekend, they supposed it was to be expected that progress would be slower than they’d originally predicted.

"We've also finished flattening the castle grounds, laying the castle foundations and are currently excavating underneath the area intended for the castle itself when the weather is not ideal for outer wall development." Tynx paused, before asking cautiously. "Are you sure you do not want us to begin developing the castle's upper floors, Master?"

"I am certain. We can construct the castle later, I want the two of you to remain focused on the task at hand." The Keeper nodded, pleased that Tynx was becoming more comfortable with questioning them.

If the Keeper had wanted a mindless slave, they wouldn't have chosen an elf that couldn't be broken. Their experience had taught them that no man was an island, every visionary needed loyal followers who genuinely wanted to see that future realised for themselves. The type of supporters who would take initiative and help to carry the burdens of day-to-day reality.

"Yes, Master." Tynx bowed his head deferentially. "The three underground floors should take another two to three months to construct."

"We can probably help with Dìon during the two-week Christmas and Easter holidays, I doubt those idiots will sacrifice their holidays to bother us." Sebastian added. "That should help speed things up."

"Hopefully, we'll see when the time comes." The Keeper gave him a conservative nod, before returning their attention to the elf. "How are you and Tibsy’s living conditions? Do the two of you still have sufficient funds for your daily expenses?"

Tynx nodded gratefully. "Yes, we appreciate Master's generosity, we actually saved a little extra this month, so Master needn't give us as much next month."

The Keeper hummed in approval, their calculations for the elves' expenditures had been fairly tight, so any savings must have been well earned. While the Keeper's funds were depleting steadily, they didn't believe in leaving hard work unrewarded, no one was selfless enough to work hard for nothing and that was the easiest way to allow resentment to fester.

They would simply have to run more errands to rebuild their finances during the year. Fortunately, the stalking hadn't impeded that aspect of their Hogwarts life too much. The Keeper was fast gaining a reputation for being an expensive but reliable freelancer with a wide variety of services, and that made getting requests easier.

Although there were certain types of errands that they weren’t currently taking, since they wouldn't want their stalkers to see them fulfil requests of a darker nature, such as breaking and entering, most of the requests around school weren't too terribly affected. Still, their current rate wasn't very sustainable. Yet another problem that they would need to think of a solution for.

The Keeper shook their head, waving a hand dismissively. "Keep it, any money the two of you save is yours to spend as you wish."

Tynx's surprised expression lasted barely longer than a second, shifting quickly to respect. The Keeper was pleased. Good, he was starting to internalise the idea that his owner was generous and 'good'. That concept would reinforce itself the more the Keeper maintained that image, until the day came, that they no longer needed to.

"Thank you, Master, we will not waste your generosity." Tynx bowed his head.

Nodding in acknowledgement, the Keeper made a sweeping gesture. "Anything further to report?"

"That is all." The elf shook his head, pausing a moment before continuing. "I believe Tibsy should be done cooking, perhaps Master should try to sleep after eating?"

Tynx gave a wry smile. "I had never thought wizarding school so taxing, I'm almost relieved to have been born a house elf."

The Keeper blinked at him as they processed the unexpected statement. At the same time, Sebastian snorted in amusement while Ominis burst into laughter.

"Only if you tackle life the way they do." Ominis replied after a moment, shaking with restrained chuckles.

The Keeper shook their head as Tibsy poked her head through the curtain curiously. At least the laugh it'd gotten out of Ominis was worth being the butt of the joke.

The Keeper sighed as they locked themselves in the toilet stall, withdrawing the jar of pain magic and gazing at it eagerly.

Finally.

Not that the Keeper hadn’t enjoyed their time relaxing with their partners, but it had been nigh unbearable to have it in their pouch the whole day. Now, they could finally answer its call.

The seconds spent unscrewing the cap were both agonising and comforting. The motion of sliding their wand into the jar, smooth and swift.

Drawing out a small portion of the energy by their wand, barely a fraction of its contents, the delicious bubble of red and black oozing together tantalisingly.

In a split second it was over. The Keeper revelled in the ecstasy that tingled down their throat, but it wasn't enough. Their thirst still wasn't sated.

Surely, a little more wouldn't hurt…

Helpless to resist, the Keeper drew out another small bulb and consumed it.

More.

It still wasn't enough. Just a little more…

Notes:

Keeper gonna learn real fast why we don't give in to the urge to eat another chocolate chip cookie at a buffet. Also, I feel like Sebastian and Ominis are rather opposite in an interesting way.

When it comes to social interaction, Ominis is observant and sharp, he notices behavioral tells quickly and understands them even faster.

However, despite knowing what he wants, his fear of being hurt makes him indecisive and costs him the willpower necessary to put his foot down in confrontation without becoming emotional, which makes what he's trying to communicate come out poorly. It also fucks him over for any 'go hard or go home' situations.

Sebastian on the other hand, is not very intuitive when it comes to understanding other people and even himself, he picks up on social cues slowly or misses them entirely unless it's been pointed out to him. He's socially awkward but good with words thanks to being a nerd who likes reading complicated books that are way over his head.

I would know, I'm a socially awkward nerd with an A1 in English and can debate just fine, but can't take social stress despite sounding confident whenever I open my mouth. I don't understand why some people characterize him like a popular flirty chad, the man's first "Can I help you?" to us screamed "Fuck off, I'm reading." so hard that I actually felt bad for disturbing him.

However, despite all this, Sebastian doesn't hesitate to put 100% into every social interaction, albeit clumsily, this makes his anger hotter but also makes his kindness sweeter and, unfortunately, makes him more easily hurt by others... and by himself when he fucks up. Still, he is honest with both himself and others, which actually makes him easier to teach, with his 100% effort in everything and some guidance, he could become someone amazing.

Because of all this, I feel like they are both likely to be loners, Ominis would have interactions with people but very surface level interactions because he fears getting invested while Sebastian simply finds interaction tiring and thus avoids it. Throw in Ominis' family's bad rep and I imagine both would be crowd haters because of the undue stress it causes them.

This is the reasoning behind why I have all three of them unable to relax while being stalked by malicious people, which is causing stress that is amplifying all their worst traits.

You know, besides the fact that being stalked by malicious people would be stressful anyway so I didn't really need to write all that but people said they like my notes so I'm putting in less effort to stop my ramblings, if you're not interested, just skip these, it's fine, it's not super important to the story xD

how you're gonna stay awake and peep Santa with those gifts] Janis: [just looking at Jimmy like you ain't gonna get no sleep lol] Jimmy: [mouthing at her to kill you away from the lip reading expert's gaze cos you can't do a dramatic death scene rn the kids are chatting a mile a minute] Janis: [pew pew at his head, also mcvickers gonna be fuming lad] Jimmy: [at least you can leave without having to see them cos that staircase] Janis: [chase you away lmao] Jimmy: [hold in the wee that you clearly will need, your house isn't far] Janis: [run boy run, but we'll throw it back to the end of your partying now] Jimmy: [we should start it as a 🚬 break because that's always good for feels and closeness when it's cold and you're half naked even if we're drunk enough not to feel it] Janis: [just drunkenly telling him about crayon colours we looked up lol] Jimmy: [guessing the colours based on their weird names unless it's obvs and then we're just pisstaking] Janis: [there's some wild ones hun, we're probably making up loads too] Jimmy: [likewise but writing them on her so she has to try and work it out when we could just say it] Janis: [we know where this is devolving and fast, wherever you are not being suitable so you're like hmpf] Jimmy: [on some random person's garden furniture that they should've brought in for the winter but have not] Janis: [you're both gonna start shivering before long so walk in the direction of the houses tah] Jimmy: [handholding and doing the little swinging thing because you've been spending all this time with the bubs] Janis: [loling at him] Jimmy: [playfully nudge her like excuse you but don't push her over because of that drunk and slippy combo please] Janis: ['you're such a nerd, you know'] Jimmy: ['Piss off' but the tone is less fuck off and more yeah I know but so are you] Janis: ['fine' and goes to walk off but likewise is joking so doesn't really] Jimmy: [nevertheless pulling her back and close into you as if she's really going because don't] Janis: ['you want me to stay?' even though you know 'cos how close you are rn] Jimmy: ['don't you want to?' even though she clearly do] Janis: [thinking he's making a point about asking stupid questions like 😏 fine] Jimmy: [just softly touching that 😏 face looking at her like no tell me you want to because we're drunk enough to have been genuinely asking and wanting an answer] Janis: ['I just want you to tell me' shrugs 'no confusion'] Jimmy: ['I just want you' because true] Janis: ['go on then' like it's a challenge but you say it so soft so like it's not] Jimmy: [the most intense kiss ever not even because it's a challenge but because the emotions are just that high okay] Janis: [no time to even talk just taking him by the hand back to yours aka mcvickers not all that way lol] Jimmy: [for a million reasons I hope whatever house you were at isn't far from there but the main one being all the kissing pauses there will be along the way regardless because that's the mood we're in] Janis: [we ain't even gon make it home energy] Jimmy: [100% support that always] Janis: [but you do, and frankly, I don't condone ladder climbing in this state so like be quiet and go in the real way] Jimmy: [that'll be a #mood in itself so] Janis: [getting him out of that santa outfit folornly like you are devvo lol] Jimmy: [gal if you're doing a pouty lip in any way you know what's gonna happen] Janis: [but of course 'why don't you care what people think?' once you can get words out again] Jimmy: ['I care what you think' because we're drunk so we can answer a question and answer it honestly] Janis: ['really?' and a confusion face] Jimmy: [😍 af about her cute expression so we lowkey forget about the question] Janis: [nudge] Jimmy: [a look like ?] Janis: ['why do you care?'] Jimmy: ['about you?' when you were only talking about what she thinks but we're drunk and we've gone deeper with it] Janis: [nods like sure, as you brought it up] Jimmy: ['it's less shit being here 'cause of you, if nowt else you should have the same back off me'] Janis: [when you can't help smile at that 'I don't want you to leave Dublin'] Jimmy: ['I'll stay' like it's that simple remotely but it is when you're drunk af] Janis: ['but you hate it here' and a look like same, obvs] Jimmy: ['I hate it everywhere' because again true] Janis: ['me too' not even trying to be banty like literally yeah same] Jimmy: [a little snugg because we don't want the bae to be sad] Janis: [snugging and sighing 'this is so weird'] Jimmy: [an even bigger sigh because it is and you don't want it to be and just saying sorry in the quietest softest voice like did you even actually say that or no] Janis: [at least it's that quiet 'cos you're meant to be that you would hear and you're shaking your head like no no 'not now, specifically or...it's not your fault, you know' 'cos you mean this whole situation for you 'cos you've never and you're like how did this happen so fast and when did we get here] Jimmy: [a shrug because he thinks everything is his fault always thanks Ian so it's like I don't know/believe that actually but we also don't think the bae is full of shit like we think a lot of people are so it's a confusing and conflicting tangle of thoughts up in here as well cos likewise has also never felt like this or expected any of this when he suggested it lol] Janis: ['I mean it' and properly looking at him but not really driving the point home harder than that right now/yet 'it's okay though, isn't it?'] Jimmy: [a nod that encompasses all the things 'are you?' cos if she's okay that's all that matters bye] Janis: ['is it a dealbreaker?' trying to make light of the fact it's like not really no] Jimmy: ['only if you're breaking our deal' like it's not okay if you don't wanna do this anymore even though it's a headfuck because ILY and I will die] Janis: ['I don't want to'] Jimmy: ['what do you want?' as if we don't know sir] Janis: [poke him in the chest] Jimmy: [just resting his hand over hers like okay I accept that and will turn it into a soft gesture] Janis: [when that lowkey says so much about the dynamic and we can't handle it 'let's just-' and kissing him] Jimmy: [kissing will always be easier so I'll allow it kids] Janis: [do that and more 'til you pass out probably 'cos honestly] Jimmy: [gonna let you say her name during at least once if you want boy because we're both not remembering this and we know it'll hit different sober anyway] Janis: [andioop soz you're trashed huns] Jimmy: [but not because it gives us freedom to do things y'all ain't ready for yet] Jimmy: [but soz that Libi will be waking you up early af]
