I didn't see Cally when I fell asleep that night, but that was okay. Now I could see her whenever I wanted. That's the best part. I wasn't alone, though. I saw a splotch of red off on the horizon and waved. It came closer. What the heck? It's Feathers. Why's he red? He's not covered in blood, is he? Nope, just a new jacket. That's just about as foreboding. When he reached me, I frowned. "Dude, where's your sweater? The bird didn't shit on it, did he?" "....no...it was ruined when Ivory stabbed me." Oh. Huh. Well, shit, that sucks. Suddenly he reached forward and grabbed my hand. I cocked an eyebrow. "I think you've been hanging out with her too much." "What? No, I -- NO! I'm going to fix it!" "Hold on, you can do that?" "I'm....not entirely sure, but I'm so sorry for doing this to you, and I want to try anyways. ...how bad is it?" "Eh, it sucks, but I can handle it. A little shaky, sort of stiff." "Oh God...." Shit, he looks like he's gonna cry. What's his problem? "....I'm so sorry.....no you're not, you thought he deserved it, get some self-restraint why don't you?" ....what the hell? "It's fine, man, but why are you talking to yourself? And with insults, at that." "Nothing. Nothing, nothing....let me try." He ran his thumb over my knuckles and fingers, where the worst of it had happened. Woah, his skin's really cold. He's not dead or turned, is he? Maybe Ivory....nah, he's breathing. Didn't do much for my hand, though. When, instead of anything constructive occurring, another thin layer of frost started to form, I jerked it back. "I already explained this to Cally, more ice isn't going to fix the problem. Good try, buddy, but I'll live with it." That might've been the wrong thing to say. He looked so /guilty/, well, I guess fixing stuff was never really his forte. He let go of my hand and his dropped to his sides as his expression went blank. From sad to nothing? That's a first. I blew the frost off and crossed my arms as he asked "Did you know Calypso's out?" I grinned. "'Course, she came to visit me first. Heard how she got out, too, that's just fucking amazing." "...language." "Whatever, so, did you guess the rest of her sentence when it happened?" "I assumed it was 'boyfriend'." "HA! I WAS RIGHT!" I pumped my fist and he sighed. "...just...please, please don't let her come visit me while I'm home alone." "I DUNNO, MAN, SHE /IS/ MY GIRLFRIEND NOW." "......" "HAHA, FINE, I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO. IF YOU'RE THAT FREAKED OUT ABOUT BEING BEAT UP, THOUGH, YOU SHOULD REALLY STAY AWAY FROM SATAN." "/Ivory/." "YEAH, SURE, TELL YOURSELF THAT. IF SKYSCRAPER--" "--Zane--" "--CAN BE THAT HELLA SCARY, YOU CAN BET YOUR BUTTON-UPS SHE'LL BE WORSE." "She's fine. She's not going to hurt me." "I WOULDN'T GET YOUR HOPES UP, KIDDO."

Terezi had only recently heard about the breakup between Anndrea and Seculus. It was a shame, really. They were cute together. Oh well. She can't control their relationship. As for her relationship? Things were going wonderful. Everything was great. Well, except for the new black eye Tassek now had. Fuck Ivory. Fuck Ivory and everything she stood for. How Lance didn't kick her out yet, will always be a mystery to her. Well, maybe he already had. She wasn't around whenever she dropped off a dress. Terezi was currently working on one right now as Anndrea tried to make home made ice cream or something in the kitchen.

Please don't let her be here. Please don't -- ....she's here. Oh...oh well. I had to tell Terezi before she found out in an unpleasant and probably ugly manner. I took a deep breath. I knocked.
2015-10-13 06:06:11 -

Terezi heard a knock. She stood up, and moved to door. Much to her surprise, she found Seculus in front of her. "Oh, hey." She greeted. "Haven't seen you by yourself in a while."
2015-10-13 06:08:48 -
🌀
"...hello. Well, I had no reason to bring Tassek, nor did I really want to...sorry, would you have liked it better if I had?"
2015-10-13 06:13:51 -
●
"Oh. No, it's fine. I just didn't expect it." She moved aside. "Come on in."
2015-10-13 06:17:53 -
🌀
"Thank you." I stepped inside and sat on the couch. "I figured you should know....Calypso got out."
2015-10-13 06:19:39 -
●
"Oh. She did? I hadn't noticed."
Of course, at the mere mention of Calypso's name, Anndrea's head perked up.
2015-10-13 06:20:28 -
🌀
"I don't know if she'll try to do anything, but it would be best if you knew before she did." Please don't come out here. Please don't. What? Are you scared? It's not like she can reject you more.
2015-10-13 06:22:44 -
●
"I do not think she will try anything while I am here." Anndrea spoke up from the kitchen.
2015-10-13 06:23:58 -
🌀
"We'll...um, we'll see. She has Louhkie to help her now, too, so.........."
2015-10-13 06:25:29 -
●
"...Oh she does? I don't think Louhkie-" Terezi was cut off by Anndrea.
"Louhkie is harmless, actually." At least physically.
2015-10-13 06:27:57 -

"..........for the most part. Mostly, he just doesn't care to do anything, but she could motivate him."
2015-10-13 06:30:22 -
●
"You do have a point." Terezi spoke.
"But what would they want to do?" Anndrea asked.
2015-10-13 06:31:44 -
🌀
".........I don't.........know........" I don't want to stay and talk to her. It hurts. It hurts.
2015-10-13 06:32:31 -
●
"I mean...what should we do? They have no reason to harm us." Anndrea moved from the kitchen to the living room.
2015-10-13 06:34:44 -
🌀
Oh God, please, no. I didn't look at her. ".......just.....keep an eye out?"
2015-10-13 06:35:23 -
●
"That seems like a good idea." Terezi spoke, she looked to Anndrea. "Think you'll be okay going to work on your own?"
Anndrea nodded.
2015-10-13 06:36:10 -
🌀
I wrung my hands a little, keeping my blank stare fixed on the carpet. ....I hope she will.
2015-10-13 06:36:52 -
●
"Will /you/ be okay on your own?" Anndrea asked Seculus. "Calypso does not necessarily like you."
2015-10-13 06:40:07 -
🌀
I jolted a little. "Th-that's an understatement. But I'll....I'll be fine." Because she's scared of you. Isn't she, Seculus?
2015-10-13 06:41:30 -
●
"...Okay." Anndrea spoke. Giving up just like that. If he said he would be okay, he would be okay.
2015-10-13 06:44:18 -
🌀
Because I defended myself. She's not used to that. Was that really 'defending yourself'? You nearly killed her several times over. I didn't.... "........" She believed me. I don't know why. I didn't even believe myself. I don't believe you either. ...I know you don't.
2015-10-13 06:49:01 -
●
Anndrea stood there for a moment before Terezi stood up. "I'm going to go back to my sewing I need to get this dress done." She slipped back into her room.
2015-10-13 06:53:37 -
🌀
Wait. Wait, no, Terezi? Come back. I don't want to be......oh. I still didn't look at her.
