"....um, Ivory, is he okay?"

Kinsley had heard Ivory burst out laughing in what seemed to be complete silence. Yes, he was slightly concerned. So he put down his book, moved into the hallway and knocked on her door. "Are you alright in there?"

Of course, the group heard the knock.

"IS THAT KINSLEY?!" Vincent shouted. "HI KINSLEY!"

"He can't hear you." She turned to the door. "I'm fine, just watching a man get diabetes."

"Fuck you I love me some honey." Xzavier shoved another fistful of honey into his mouth. "Gah it's so thick. Fuck"

2015-08-31 01:49:57

🌀

"Kinsley? Who's Kinsley? Why is he in your house??"

"Is that supposed to be some kind of porn?" He opened the door and glanced at the screen, prepared to turn and run, but his eyebrows shot up at the sight of the devil with his entire fist somehow shoved into his mouth. "...................well."

2015-08-31 01:55:00

●

"Well considering I don't watch porn, /at all/, no, but I guess someone might be into this."

Xzavier heard the door open, and gave a wave before eating more honey.

"Kinsley is Cale's angel and is staying with Ivory and Lance. Along with Clarenz." Vincent answered for Ivory, since she was occupied.

"Is he just as much of a dick? I hope not, he sounds kind of cute."

He waved back, still confused. "Maybe the type who enjoy circus sideshows. Just how large is his mouth?"

2015-08-31 02:02:14

●

"No idea. Ivorrrryyyyy, make him come join us! TURN YOUR WEBCAM ON SO I CAN SEE HIS FACE!"

"One of us. One of us." Spencer join in.

"Malsphgh!" Xzavier spoke through his honey.

Ivory sighed. "I guess so." She turned to Kinsley once more. "They want you to come sit next to me. Vincent said he'd turn if webcam on if you did."

"FUCK YOU IVORY! ....fine."

2015-08-31 02:06:15

🌀

"Let me learn his weaknesses so I can mentally and physically torture him into submission until he has no choice but to become my slave! I mean, turn on your webcam!"

Kinsley shrugged. "Okay. I'm assuming that's supposed to be motivation." He pulled another chair over and sat down next to her, pulling out his corresponding hearing aid and reaching for one of her earbuds, pausing and raising an eyebrow questioningly. They hadn't said they wanted him to hear them, just sit next to her.

●

She handed him an earbud, then reached over and clicked the button to turn on her webcam. As she did Vincent turned on his as well. "Happy? Spencer, Eilliot, Ren, you too."

"I don't show the face, sorry." Eilliot spoke.

"Don't care. On."

Ivory's webcam finally loaded, and Vincent stared back at Kinsley. " Ivory you didn't tell me he had glasses tooooooo!"

Xzavier cleared hid throat. "I can't feel my taste buds."

Spencer turned on his webcam. "Well you should of thought about that before eating the honey."

"But it's so good!"

2015-08-31 02:24:33

🌀

"Noooooo. Don't wanna."

"If you can't taste anything, that ruins the point of eating the honey to begin with. And now thanks to that, you won't be able to taste it again for the foreseeable future. Glasses are a common feature, especially as they've recently become more of a fashion statement than a necessity, while also being increasingly needed for the younger generation as they spend so much time staring at bright screens and tiny text, like right now. Statistically speaking, it was more likely that I would have glasses than not, meaning she shouldn't have had to tell you."

"Nevermind. Does he have a mute button? The one on my computer isn't working."

2015-08-31 02:30:58

●

The entire chatroom seemed to get quiet. Oh. Well, apart from Ivory, for a while she stared at him, taking in what he had to say.

"You see, the problem with that statement is that even with statistics or not I really shouldn't have to tell him. Why should people make vain assumptions about other people? What difference does it make? We're all the same people living on the same earth and physical features or gender, for that matter, really shouldn't be what you deem 'attractive' or not. I mean, shouldn't you talk to someone because you enjoy talking to them? And not how they look?"

"Oh God. No. Stop. We got her into idealism territory. STOP! SHUT HER UP OR WE'LL BE HERE ALL DAY!" Spencer shouted.

2015-08-31 02:37:19

"When did we start talking about taking someone at face value? But I suppose that would be one upside to video chat like this, where you don't /actually/ have to use video if you don't want to, like Ren's doing. The entire interaction is based around the conversation because you can't see their face."

"I don't want anything to do with this. My name is copyrighted, every time you use it in your conversation you have to pay me a royalty of ten minutes of absolute silence."

2015-08-31 02:41:03

●

"Well that's what I assumed what Vincent was doing. I do prefer video chat over mic any day, however. I think everyone in this room is beautiful in their own special was, even if one of them right now is stuffing their face with honey over the assumption that if two friends are extremely close, then they are dating."

"Wait... you guys aren't? Awe man what the fuck am I going to do with the rest of this?"

"Put it in your hair. Quick distract Ivory" Vincent spoke, well, this was a joke.

But Xzavier took it seriously and did so.

2015-08-31 02:45:33

🌀

"That's an uncomfortable assumption to make, for everyone involved. What if they see each other as siblings, that would -- what is he doing?"

"Go take a shower, guy."

2015-08-31 02:49:37

●

"Hmm? Oh!" She looked to the monitor once more. "Xzavier what the fuck are you doing?"

"Hey it worked!" Xzavier smiled "YEAAAAAAAAAa-now I'm sticky."

2015-08-31 02:50:46

🌀

"Yes you are. If you're trying to eat your honey through osmosis, I can tell you right now that it's not going to work."

2015-08-31 02:51:41

●

Ivory couldn't help but giggle.

"Oh thank God. Xzavier your a life savior" Spencer let out a breath of relief.

2015-08-31 02:52:47

🌀

"You wouldn't have died. If you hated it that much, you could have simply hung up."

"Says you. Ever heard of a heart attack?"

2015-08-31 02:53:49

●

"I did from drug overdose once" Spencer spoke up.

"Oh my god not that story again." Ivory put her hand to her temples

2015-08-31 02:54:44

🌀

"...this isn't obituary storytime, please."

"Death stories? I watched a man being beaten to death once."

"............what?"

2015-08-31 02:56:21

●

"Oh, um. Should probably explain. Apart from Ren, this chat is filled with angels and devils....it's kinda how I got into this whole concept thing. Ren, why did you watch a man be beaten to death?"

"Next you can tell your death story, Ivory." Vincent spoke a grin spreading across his face.

"No."

2015-08-31 02:59:08

🌀

"That does explain a bit."

"Let's just say prison guards tend to look the other way when life sentences get in a jam~"

2015-08-31 05:11:30

●

Another bit of silence from the other males.

"...Wait. What?" Xzavier was the first to finally speak.

"Oh like no one in here has ever been in trouble with the law. What happened?" Ivory asked.

2015-08-31 05:13:03

🌀

For once, they kind of regretted what they'd said. Shit, now they had to elaborate. "Ah...ha...oh, nothing, just a bit of a misunderstanding."

"Generally, misunderstandings that lead to imprisonment are based off of already suspicious behavior, and there must have been enough evidence for you to be found guilty, meaning it probably wasn't 'nothing'. Your statement is contradictory."

"Hey Kinsley?"

"Yes?"

"Shut up," they said in a cheerful tone through gritted teeth. They still hadn't turned on their webcam, which was probably for the better since they were panicking a little.

2015-08-31 05:23:38

●

"If you're in prison, there's no misunderstanding. You fucked up." Vincent seemed to be getting impatient with Ren. Maybe Lance was right.

"Guys if they don't want to talk about it, they don't have to." Ivory stated.

"No,no I think this is something that should be talked about." Eilliot chimed in.

2015-08-31 05:27:43

🌀

No, no, please not this again. They didn't want Ivory to know. She would hate them. And if not her, then Lance, and that would basically be the same thing. And they'd started to like these people. They didn't want them to hate them /too/. They had their hands over their headphones and their shoulders hunched up around them. Please no, it wasn't their fault, it wasn't...... "I didn't, I swear, it was a case of wrong place and wrong time, and no one vouched for me, I didn't....." Ren whimpered.
