[My bigger boys:] Whatever it is you did, I can't thank you enough. I was so scared for Cassie, but he called me this morning and he sounded as happy and energetic as he usually does. Whatever it is the two of you did was amazing. Thanks so much.

[My younger boys:] Just remember that you're not allowed to go anywhere without Cass or Soren there with you. I know you're very mature for your ages, but you're still very young. Enjoy your time with the big guys. I hope you keep calling and checking up.

[Ms. Offdensen & Sadako:] My elder sons have alerted me to a very concerning fact. It seems as if young Tej is doing some incredibly nasty, unhealthy things. According to the younger children, he's been capturing, torturing and killing neighborhood pets since his move to Tokyo. I don't know if this is a cry for help or something even worse, but please, see to it that he gets help as soon as possible. I don't have to tell you how important it is that you don't tell him who told us. Sor and Cassie are terrified of Tej and what might do. They're currently hiding because they don't want him to get mad at them. Please, don't overlook this.

Of course, as soon as one drama ends, another starts.

	That's ... we'll take care of it. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm sure you understand that I'm worried for all the boys, not just mine. Tej is just as much a part of this family as Cassie, Sor and Henry are. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not sure what happened either. But I'm just glad they're okay. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah, I hope so too. They shouldn't have to be so scared. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	He is still upset about the sudden departure of his sister. I will speak with him. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hopefully you do more than that. This is something that takes a LOT more than a little lecture. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

My son needs an outlet for his sorrow and his needs, no more, no less. I am not being "spooky", merely stating facts. I know you are defending your children, but I request that you keep them and the Skwigelf boy away from Tej until I can help him.

It is an addiction, no different from alcoholism, something that fulfills a desire for something else. I must find what that something else is.

Yeah, you were being spooky, Sadako. It's saying things like that? That gets you on the "don't know if want" list of normal people. I'm not going to lecture you on social graces right now, there's more important things at hand.

Sor and Cassie are staying with the big boys until they know that they won't be killed or maimed by your son. I asked them, and they say that the elder Teja never had this kind of severity to his actions, that he's always had a moral compass. I hope that helps you in your finding something for young Tej.

Maybe it's also something to do with the fact that Teja never had Toki around, but Toki's alive in this world and Tej still doesn't have him. It's something to look into.

Tej is more prone to forming fast, fierce attachments to people. His bond with Esther being broken adversely affected him. It is because his father is around but has nothing to do with him, and because his best friend has a soul mate. Tej feels alone and slighted.

I don't mean to sound spooky, Teague. Maybe I simply am spooky, but I do care about my son. My family was what stopped me from killing, or I never would have ceased. I didn't want to until I had them. He needs something to love. I'm going to see if I can try for him.

	I'm glad she's back, then. Sadako, you can be yourself without resorting to semi-threatening, sinister remarks. I care very much for your well-being, as well as Tej's. If you need anything other than the other boys to stay out of his hair for a while, just give me a call. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Teague wheniamqueen 2010-04-01 06:17 am UTC (link)
	I simply said that I know how to deal with the sort of problems he's having! I'm sorry if it came out spooky. I promise, when I threaten, I'm very overt about it. (And that wasn't a threat, just a fact! ♥) He needs to know he's loved as much as any of the other boys, that he's not a freak. I'll see what Ryuzaki and I can do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sadako poetbrennan 2010-04-01 06:22 am UTC (link)
	I hope you and Ryuzaki figure out something. We all love him very much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Teague wheniamqueen 2010-04-01 06:24 am UTC (link)
	Myself as well. I would die and stay dead if he wanted me to. I do, however, hope one day I learn to speak without scaring you! (Reply to this) (Parent)
