*Fionan slips into the room, nervously fiddling with the cuffs of his shirt.. he's dressed more nicely than usual, with a sweater vest that looks like it's possibly been pilfered from Kipley, and an awkwardly tied bowtie (he tried).*

....Holly?

-@fionan-james

{she turns. It appears they’ve tried a new thing lately with their hair, tying it into pigtails that rested on their shoulders. He smiles at Fionán.}

What’s got you all dressed up? {she spares a sympathetic giggle at the mess of the bow tie, deciding to help him with it.}

{small hums of Cascada as Matthew is in the kitchen, fixing themself up a small fruit salad. Holly hadn’t had it in a minute, so she thought it sounded good. He sits at the stool, enjoying beginning to enjoy it as Harlow Jr. sits on the counter, purring at them.}

*kipley and Fin find holly in the nurses office* hey holly!

@fionan-james

… {a sleeping Matty is leaning on the counter of the office, her brown hair covering her face as they snore.}

[wispsofthenevermoreacademy]

Hey, Holly? *Fionán coughs, leaning heavily on the doorframe to keep himself upright. He's still very much trying to pretend he's feeling just fine, and not at all sick.*

.... I can take Cillian back now.

—@fionan-james

..er, I don’t think that’s wise, Fionn.

{they turn, having Cillian faced away from him.}

[wispsofthenevermoreacademy]

Ah... Er... Hello, Holly? *Fionán stands in the doorway, hunched over as if he's in considerable pain as he gives them a sheepish smile*

—@fionan-james

..Fionn, what did you do this time?

{they immediately scramble over}

*Leonard slips into Holly's room, unusually subdued as he walks over to her and knocks his head gently against their shoulder in greeting. He's actually using the cane he gave him, and Chekov tumbles in close at his heels. He silently hands her a note before sitting down on the floor, letting the puppy clamber into his lap*

"I need to talk to you. Please don't let me chicken out."

-@space--the-final-fontier

—EEP!

You can’t just sneak up on someone like that!

… oh?

Alright, I’ll hold you accountable if you hold me accountable in helping you. {she kneels down only a little.} What do you need?

[wispsofthenevermoreacademy]

[Emery stares at a painting on the wall.]

-- @emery-nevermore

…Do you like it? {the wisp seemed to appear out of nowhere.} Me personally, it gives me the creeps. For some reason all these paintings are nostalgic. {a small laugh.}

👶☕✏️ — For Holly :D

👶 Baby picture of them - what’s the most embarrassing thing about it?

Holly had a bad thing sucking habit during her early years, so seeing up to her 6th bday all their photos of her tended to have that.

☕ What’s their comfort drink?

banana and strawberry smoothie for the win! (Any fruit smoothie would suffice tbh)

✏️ What nickname do they secretly love being called?

holly’s an open book, to be honest. Being called Holly or Matty makes her happy and they’ll tell you to your face. Also any nicknames from Fionán……. Maybe…
