Mun is eager to bring muse back from hiatus when the Wake reopens on DW

There's no rush, really. It's going to be hectic the next few days. I know you want to play me again, but maybe it's best to wait a day, at least. Why don't you write that college app fic? I bet some of the Terry-muns you've met would like to see it~

I know. But it was fun to watch you blipping off someone else for a change. [Teasing smile]

You are planning on going to college, right?

[punliners]

Oh come on, I'm not that bad -- am I?

[OH NO NOW HE'S WORRIED well not really but he is faking it well.]

I, uh. Huh? Yeah. Yeah, of course. I mean... you know, eventually. Maybe in a couple years or something when everything's... settled down. And I won't have to worry so much about Matt.

[Okay, his grimace - while exaggerated - isn't entirely feigned. God only knows why Dana puts up with him the way she does.]

What do you say about me making it up to you? Got some free time coming up.

[yeah he'll just ask all the criminals nicely to put their superstitious, cowardly plans on hold for just one night. Pretty please. Maybe if he promises to garnish it with a cherry.

And then... ah, well.]

[Half-smile; how many times has she heard that, only for him to cancel at the last minute?]

How about, when you're sure of that free time, give me a call and you can make it up to me then-and-there? And no hard feelings on your end if I'm busy~

I know, and I know how much he means to you, but... does he have a full-time position for you? A real one, and not the part-time-but-always-on-call that you have now? If he's not going to pay you enough to save up for tuition...
