[TEXT] Sounds like a plan :) [TEXT] And no, not yet.. I’ll text her in a bit.

[TEXT] oh one more thing... [TEXT] what do you call a deer with no eyes? [TEXT] no idea. [TEXT] xD

[TEXT] thanks for hanging out with me the other day. Sorry if I bogged you down at all.. [TEXT] But I really appreciated getting out of my room, so thank you!

[TEXT] hey no worries! i really enjoyed it.[TEXT] next time you need to get out, we could try a walk through the forest.[TEXT] have you talked to daisy yet?

Just getting it out helps, i think… But I do need to tell her… I.. They’re.. I have an image, of sorts, that I portray to them.. Let’s just say it would be out of character for, uh, “me” to refuse going to a gathering.

I don’t think I can bring anyone. I’m sure they’re trying to get me talking to some rich senator’s son anyways. Would be weird if I showed with a date. And no, not mafia. Just bigoted American senators. I’m sure someone could pull a comparison out of that though.

You really wanna please them, huh? But what about what you want? Is that even something to consider?

Alright, we’ll do another drink. Then maybe we can head back to Braxton and you can find Daisy and talk to her? I'm not sure my jokes will help much.

It’s true! I swear. And of course that’s a good thing. People need people like you. Makes life more fun. Fair enough. I don’t think I quite have that particular problem, but I get what you mean. But I’m glad being out makes you feel good. And, uhh…

I.. No, not really… I mean, yes, sort of, and I probably should, but I just.. It’s complicated. I haven’t even told Daisy yet… I- *sighs* Sorry.. Um.. Okay… Basically, my parents called, they want me to come home next weekend for a “do” that they’ve set up with some other prominent people. Really, uhhh… “important” people, or so they say, and I just.. I can’t fucking stand them. Every ounce of my being doesn’t want to go home, but I know I’m going to go anyway, cause I don’t want to disappoint them, and.. ugh.. *slumps* Sorry, I shouldn’t ramble. I don’t want to burden you with my problems. Honestly, they’re not even that bad. I’m just fed up.

#replies #billie #don't worry about rambling #i'm a great listener #do you need another coffee?

Oh... If Daisy doesn’t know... She’s probably better at this sort of stuff.

I don’t know your parents and I get the whole not wanting to disappoint them thing. But are you sure you have to go back? Maybe you could make up some reason for why you can’t go? Or, are you allowed to take someone with you? Have like backup in a difficult situation. Like Daisy. She’s so sweet, no one could be terrible around her. Also, it really sounds like it’s gonna be some sort of mafia boss meeting... But that’s just my imagination... Right?

Thanks, sunshine. And oh sure, I got this, don’t you worry.

Ohhh my god, you- You’re such a dork. In the best way possible though! You’re an extremely likeable dork that makes people feel better by saying bad jokes. Which is adorable, by the way. And very much so appreciated. Thanks for the suggestion of coffee, also. I really needed to get out of that room.

Oh yeah, an adorable dork.

That’s a good thing, right? I’m glad they make you feel better. I could keep going if you’d like. How does a train eat? It goes chew, chew. The suggestion was partly for me too. It’s good to get away from that place. Pretend I’m normal for a little while. So, you wanna talk about why you were drinking alone? Or maybe math?

Aw, thanks. Umm.. You know, I think I’ll just have a large dark roast, if that’s alright? I can grab a table.

Woman after my own heart. Here’s your large dark roast. Smells potent, by the way. You sure it’s safe to drink?

Ok... So... Why do fish always sing off key? ‘Cause you can’t tuna fish.

Alright, sorry I’m late..

I am. It’s coffee time. Leggo.

(After much walking, they arrive at the Grind.)

Ok, whatdya want to drink? My shout. I’ll even allow one of those drinks with the ridiculously long names.

#billie-wash #starter #let's go get some coffee!

Ok, I’m here. No need to panic.

You ready to go?

[TEXT] I.. um.. I dunno. I don’t wanna burden you with ramblings or whatever. [TEXT] Getting out would probably be a good idea though.. Sure, let’s get coffee. I need the energy anyhow. Thanks :)

[TEXT] i don’t mind but if you don’t wanna talk, that’s ok too. [TEXT] alright. let’s meet in the lounge in ten minutes?

#texts #billie

[TEXT] No, no, it’s okay, I’m fine.. really. [TEXT] I just… I was just having a moment. [TEXT] I’m.. yeah, i’m good. Thanks though. <3

#texts #billie #ooc: sure thing. i imagine it probably would've anyway

[TEXT] do you wanna talk about anything? [TEXT] we could go get a coffee downtown. [TEXT] get out of braxton for a few hours maybe?

[TEXT] Oh, no it’s okay! I’m just in my dorm. I’m safe. [TEXT] Don’t, like.. freak out, or anything [TEXT] I’m fine.

#texts #billie #ooc: sure if you don't mind my late reply!

[TEXT] are you sure? [TEXT] i can still come if you wanna talk to someone. [TEXT] like you did for me.

[TEXT] I… I am drinking alone.. Yeeaaaah.. Um.. Sorry…

#texts #billie #ooc: that's ok #ooc: i'm about to start watching a movie actually

[TEXT] where are you? [TEXT] are you ok? [TEXT] i’m gonna look for you.

Probably. That, and ye’re way better at explainin’ the concepts and what I do wrong than my professor. And I’m not scared te ask ye questions. That helps, also!

Though, that’d be such a waste of this lovely evenin’ — eem, mornin’ now, I guess. I doubt ye want te spend yer mornin’ lecturin’ me on math. Plus, we’re supposed te be gettin’ ye te sleep! Gosh, I’m not doin’ so well at this at all … Are ye feelin’ tired?

#replies #daisy #there might be someone on my mind #most of the time #i'll remember the coffee thing #ooc: in other news i've gotta head off for the night due to work (it's gonna be a late night)#ooc: maybe we can do something with them tomorrow?

Whenever you need help with math, let me know. I’m happy to answer any questions.

Yeah... I guess it is the morning now. Have you slept at all? If you want my help, I don’t mind talking math. There are worse things. I’m pretty sure I’m not gonna be sleeping anytime soon. Actually, I think I might go do some yoga in the gardens. The fresh air will probably do me good.

You wanna come?

Don’t worry, yer secret’s safe with me. So long as ye do yer biology homework and make sure ye’re takin’ care of yerself! I actually think it’s kind of cool that ye’ve read it, to be honest.

And are ye kiddin’? I love yer accent!

It’s so soothin’! Not te mention, it makes ye sound very sophisticated. Very Mr. Darcy-esque — only ye’re a thousand times nicer. And smarter. Bet he didn’t know math half as well as ye do.
