Re: Sphinx Basement: Thierry and Paxton
Paxton nodded, giving Thierry an askance look. He wondered who someone who looked - and, quite honestly, talked - like white trash could be so kind or wise. Paxton thought that Thierry was one of the few students who would never get wrapped up in drama. "Fine. I'll see how it plays out. Won't go around doing anything stupid."
He'd only gone and done James, who really was a lot of things but stupid? No.
Was this real? No. Probably not. Was this real enough for now? Yes.
He nudged Thierry. "Such a good listener, Thierry," Paxton said. "So, you sure you ain't - haven't got someone in particular?"
