[After Jeffy chases Quinn into the cafeteria]

Could someone do me a favour? I'm in the cafeteria and I [...] need my things from the library. I'd owe you one.

[WARDED TO: TY HAWKESWOOD]

Hey. Do you know what dates we're supposed to be in Mexico for? And are you still alive? As always, I'd be more than happy to avenge you.

[WARDED TO: TY then ~~JESSE~~ then ~~LEO~~ then ~~RAFAEL~~ then finally NATE BIRD; added just before dinner after she TOTALLY DOESN'T freak out in the library]

[...] It's ~~motherfucking~~ Groundhog Day or something. Can I ask for a repeat of my earlier favour? I'm back in the cafeteria. Not a fucking word

	I wonder if there's a book on unexpected chases being a good way to shake up your daily workouts. I should ask Ms. Petrichor if she knows. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, well. I've been trying not to make Ty jealous. And I need to get out of the library anyway. I'm starting to reach that point where studying just becomes counterproductive. Of course, of course. So long as you're staying out of trouble. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You caught me. Years of doting friendship, all so that I can win a game of fake stabby stab without having to try too hard.

Close call? You get your stuff back?

24th to the 26th, at least. But I was thinking I might just go down on Monday. Better than casa de Hawkeswood, you know? Do you want to come with? We can hang out and get drunk on the beach! We can play drunk volleyball!

And I'm still kicking! No need for avenging yet. [...] Unless you want to avenge Essie. (I feel sorta bad about that.)

Yeah. [...] Both times.

Really? YE Because I think I'd be really good at drunk volleyball. Could I meet up with you there, though? ~~I want to see my~~ I've got to make sure the kids haven't burned down the house in my absence so I was hoping to do at least an overnight Chez Stewart Cunninghams. ~~Or do you want to~~ ~~I'm going home and it would be cool if y~~ ~~Would you be interested i~~ ~~I know it sounds kind of boring, but~~

You'd definitely be the Queen of Drunk Volleyball; I can tell! And yeah. Of course. You can come down whenever you want. Just because I don't want to go home doesn't mean you shouldn't, you know? [...] You okay? You're not worried about the wedding or anything, are you? ~~That's a lot of scribb~~

She might think I'm trying to woo her.

Do you want to come with me when I go home? I know it's not Mexico (in fact, it has a reputation as a dirty steeltown even though it has a million waterfalls), and there's no Raf, Leo, or Downing (in fact, we'd be staying with my parents), but I love it and ~~it's import~~ I'd love to show it to you [...] if you want to see it. We wouldn't have to hang out with my parents either, and we could do all of the regular crap people do when they don't go to boarding school like go out for dinner, or start a fight with junkies outside the mall, or see a movie. [...] You can go to Mexico instead, though. I won't be offended or anything.

What do you think?
