headmt | PC: BEAU + CALEB

No, it's just ... vibes. Also I suppose Dimitri did scruff me like a kitten.

[Don't just give him funny looks Beau. He's just trying to push the door open further and shove past her to come in, patting her on the cheek as he does.]

Look, I won't take up much space. I'll even sleep on the roof.

[splutters slightly, batting at him, but she lets him in.]

Floor. [she corrects.] Or one of the beds we're not using. We've got a whole thing with the one suite going on, it's for rent.

[she's way too curious to not ask:] Vibes?

[He's hovering slightly, and sort of comes over to straighten out his coat, going a little red.]

You've been back two days and you've already started a dorm battle.

Don't make me-- do the vibe thing. I don't want to have to hit you, Beau, you'll hit me back much harder and Rita already punched me in the face.

[Oh, hi. Immediately starting up the poking and fidgeting thing he was doing at the meeting again, curling his claws into the bottom of Caleb's shirt and sticking his tongue out at him.]

Lucretia said it'd been quiet without me around. Figured I'd shake it up a bit.

[god dammit]

If the two of you can't keep your hands off each other I'm going to knock you both out. [she warns, immediately.] I'm not asking for a fuckin' - vibe check, or whatever, I just want to know why Maya texted me yelling about being kicked out of her own room.

[Beau, that might have to happen. He backs off when she calls him out but it's like a second later that he's looking like he's going to try to do some gross shit again.]

I admit I'm curious about that too. It seems pretty fast to be causing roommate problems even for you.

[He puffs his cheeks out like a kid that just got fussed at and holds his hands up in front himself when she warns him.

But yeah like three seconds later his tail is going to wrap around Caleb's ankle don't worry about it.]

Amazing. It's almost as if you're two intelligent people who can't figure out why someone would do something strange without explanation in this place where people are doing something strange without explanation all the time.

[well, that's fine, that's better than blushing and cooing at each other, so whatever. she's only intervening if it looks like they're gonna kiss, just because like - whatever, do what you want but do it when you're not under a curse, thanks]

It's been one day. [she says, rolling her eyes.] At least give it a second.

You can stay here, whatever.

Ah. Extra credit? Surely there was a better way?

[Listen, listen. He's trying to ignore the curse, he really is.]

Couldn't think of a better one at the time.

[Yeah somehow just the blushing and cooing is way worse. It's so gross.]

And don't whatever me. I already asked Iris. Suppose it'll be official next week.

[oh, well. that makes beau less of a grouch, at least. she goes to flop down on a couch.]

Good. [...] I might need help for one of my extra credits actually. Not now, later, but.

A lot of Spring Dorm made sad puppy dog faces at me when I suggested you might, you know. I suggest leaving a letter that says you're coming here undercover to destroy Winter Dorm from the inside.

As long as it's not throwing me face first into a table.

[Oh, he looks briefly like-- A little sad, at that. That Spring would miss him, but he just laughs after a second.]

Who says I'm not actually coming here undercover to destroy Winter Dorm from the inside?

No, I'd use Tsuyukusa for that.

[be nice.]

Anyway. Like you could. Winter is impenetrable.

You say that like I am not also planning to tear Winter down from the inside.

I did watch him put a foot in his mouth repeatedly.

[He is sneaking over ......... to try and lace his fingers through with Caleb's.]

Oh, good, good, we'll co-conspire. War room meetings in the empty suite.

[just wait until she tells you what the tree said to her, molly

anyway she's making SUCH a face.]

Not today you're not.

[What? They're just doing a task? Holding hands? Did you want to hold hands, Beau?]

He also wanted to make you a memorial, so we settled on that flower arrangement that is the hand doing a middle finger. He blew his chances after what he said to Beauregard, but his problem is mainly just that he is stupid.

[Molly will actually hold his hand out to Beau because he remembers the task and should probably do it actually. He looks concerned though--]

What did he say to Beau?

[she looks disgruntled, but she will take his hand. for the task, not because she likes them.]

He found me after your body was announced and told me to stop feeling sorry for myself.

Yeah, he was a dick. Trying to give a pep talk, I think, but it isn't as though she needs one from him.

[Holding her hand too to do the task. His grave might say he died of being bisexual if Astrid and Eodwulf kill him.]

[HELP? YIKES?]

A shitty pep talk, I think. Erm. You didn't punch him for that?

[wow just three people holdin' hands.]

I tried. I was kind of drunk. [sniff.

she doesn't seem to mind the handholding so much at least.]

She did.

[This is kind of a sad subject, though, so just leaning his head against Molly.]

Anyway, if you will be here in winter, you can't embarrass us in front of all of our winter friends.

Good for you.

[He just gently smooches him on the side of the head? Please spray them with a garden hose like cats.]

I think you two embarrass yourselves plenty well enough on your own?
