She follows his gaze out the window, catches sight of the Kaiba Corb building in the distance, and quickly looks back at her drink. "Sounds like the kind of opportunity you can only dream of. What's holding you back?"

Joey watches her gaze drift, has a guess where it landed before coming back here.

He shrugs, as if he couldn’t list every single thing in minute detail. “My home’s here. My family’s here. How am I s’posed to just ditch all of that?”

☆°What a strange tradition. 

Then again, who was Tilly to judge on strange things? She watched in wonder as students gathered around a huge bin of sandwiches that Tome had brought out  for them. Apparently there was some sort of magical ‘egg-wich’ they were all seeking. One after another, each student tried and each student failed. 

Her big brighter figure, Kyle, watched from a relatively far distance as he stocked up other things in the room. As the two made eye-contact, he began to sign to her; the two having a silent conversation from across the room. 

‘Tilly, why don’t you give it a try?’

‘But they all seem to really want it. If I win, I’ll feel bad.’

‘They can always try again tomorrow. It’s not like you don’t deserve to play too.’

After a moment of hesitation, the girl shrugged and gave a grin. Sure, why not? What was the worst thing that could happen? She’d get a ‘yucky’ sandwich, apparently. Most of the other students didn’t seem very satisfied with their winnings. Others seemed content enough. As Tilly stepped up to the bin, she could recognize a few other faces around her. Sure she didn’t know them by name, but she’d seen the Slifer red next to her around the dorm room on and off over the last week. 

Carefully, she pushed her hand down into the sandwiches, feeling around and poking at the fillings through the wrappers. Did that count as cheating? Considering how long all of the others were taking, probably not. Either way, she felt around until finally she came across a sandwich with something nice and squishy, yet somehow still firm in the middle. That felt an awful lot like eggy-texture. 

She looked down at the sandwich in her hands, then back up at Kyle again. Should she open it here or--Oh, why not? With as much excitement as a kid opening presents on Christmas, she ripped the packaging open to reveal: The oh so magical Egg-wich!

“I did it!” She chimed out in excitement, running in place for a moment. 

Though her glance soon fell upon the brunet boy beside her, curious about what sandwich he had in his hands.

“What’d you get?” She asked curiously. “If you want, we can go halfsies.”

He was in red, so that meant they could be friends, right? Most of the yellows and blues seemed to avoid her at every turn simply because of her blazer color. Not that that stopped Tilly from continuing to try, of course.°☆

(not baby au for a change) Annie swirls the stick in her coffee, lazily disrupting the little cream picture. "So are you gonna take the job?" The bags under her eyes are smaller than they have been in a while.

“I mean. I’d be a dumbass to reject them out of hand. This isn’t just coaching, it’s management. They want me so bad it makes them look stupid. They’re offering a sign-on bonus, relocation, the works.”

Joey ruffles his hair at the back of his neck, watching people stroll past the cafe window.

"La Llorona was a peasant woman who fell in love with a nobleman and had three kids with him. He refused to marry her because the kids were born out of wedlock, so her solution was to, uh, drown the kids. When he refused to marry her again, she drowned herself. She was cursed to wander rivers and canals in search of her kids and if kids hear her yelling 'Ayy mis hijos', they better run the other way, or she might mistake them for her kids and take them away."

Joey’s grin strains and he turns pale, staring out at the sea again. “Wow! That’s! Exactly as dark and horrifying as I thought it was gonna be! I’ll never swim in a canal again!”

¡¿Qué has hecho con mis hijos?!

“ — Is this Annie?! Annie, if that’s you then I’m gonna...!”

[luckyredeyes]

Ayy mis hijos.... Mis hijos ....

Joey scrambles backward on the common room sofa. “DON’T YOU PUT THAT EVIL ON ME!”

“I’ll make this really easy! If you don’t do sOMETHING about the ghost problem at the Red dorms I’m giving up my associate professorship!

“ -- Stop that laughing, Kaiba, I’m serious! UGH!”

Joey slams the phone down. OKAY, guess it’s all up to him.

"Confia en mi hijo~"

Joey grabs and catapults every pillow on the sofa at her. “I! KNEW IT! I! FREAKIN’! KNEW IT!”
