Mun, I hope you have confidence in what you are doing. I cannot afford to have this fall like sand between both our fingers.

It is true, however. I do care for her. With every fiber. The more that happens within the campus walls gives me more purpose to remain. I am sure Mother would find it humorous I have tried to find my own comforts for once. She lectured me on that matter. You know of that.

As much as I feel I must return to the Homestead, much now I fear plagues the city. I cannot leave it in that state. If that mad doctor or...that creature dared stir more trouble that threatens the townsfolk, I must be there to stop it.

I know that is true as well.

What happens next is for you to decide, I suppose.

[HELLO SON.]

What happens next is that you and I need to have a talk.

[HE...LLO FATHER.]

...

[Okay fine he'll humor you. Still awkward as hell.]

What is it?

[It better not be something that would piss me off-...It will won't it. Probably.]

Keeping yourself occupied in that war-torn excuse for a school with that tyrant running around? Or have you returned to cleaning classrooms like a maid.

[ hi. i'm sure you totally miss this. ]

[mohawk_tomahawk]

[He totally missed this. Totally. He dignified this retort with a small glare.]

It is what is expected of me, on both counts.

[superior_archer]

[ It's all part of his charm, really. ]

Good. I would hate for you to be bored in my absence.
