Don't call me 'Brucey'

Who: Porter and Tad
Where: Tad's house
When: Just after school

Thankfully, it wasn't too hard to beg some time outside for Porter. Sure, he'd already spent the day 'sick' at home, but when his mom got in, all it took was a steady smile and a friendly request for some fresh air. She'd assented all too easily, only making him promise to be home for dinner with Carter that night. The chance for fresh air and to make a few housecalls was plenty of incentive for Porter to agree, and once he did it was all blue skies and slushy ground.

Something More

Who: Tad and his Grams
Where: Tad's house
When: Evening

The ride home from Kaysen's house the night before had been silent and once home Tad had gone straight to his room. Since then he hadn't really left besides to go to the bathroom or to grab something to eat out of the kitchen. By the time dinner rolled around, Tad had to go downstairs, especially once he smelled food cooking.

Breaking Curfew

Tad_dodgeball

Who: Kaysen and Tad
Where: Kaysen's house
When: late evening

The sun had been setting when he'd arrived at the library, and now that he was leaving it was even later. Tad didn't have a curfew because he'd never had a reason to have one before, but tonight he'd probably end up being accused of breaking it. Instead of pedaling towards Grams, a late dinner and more classic movies, while they avoided talking about what happened on his trip, Tad steered his bike one handed while eating cracker's from his backpack and headed for Kaysen's house.

Redefining the Student/Teacher Relationship

Who: Tad and Hunt
Where: over the phone / Hunt's House
When: afternoon

Tad had barely registered anything from the whole ordeal once the officials arrived to hustle them out of the asylum. He'd been checked out by doctors and ushered home without another word. Grams had been worried, but she didn't ask him too many questions when he just sat in silence in the car on the way home. They'd asked questions of the officials, but no one had an answer and no one had seemed to care that their teachers and classmate were dead. It was all too fucked up.

ghost photography

eben 6

who: eben and tad
where: looney bin o doom
when: afternoon

Eben was wandering. He had his map with him, though he wasn't really checking it so much as he was letting himself go wherever looked interesting. That sort of mentality had taken him down a wing that had a lot of windows and there were spirits wandering the halls. So he was taking pictures.

He'd taken shots of strangely located dead birds, all in their own window pane next to one another. He'd also found a bird skeleton on the floor, so he'd taken a shot of that as well. Now he'd moved onto more spirit-photography, asking permission to take shots, even if they didn't come out as clearly as he could see them. So far, the ghosts he'd encountered seemed a little confused that he was there, but otherwise alright. They didn't make a bunch of sense in conversation (since he'd tried) but it was still interesting, one way or another. He paused, seeing a non-spirit type figure up the hallway, though the light was too bright to make out who it was. So he just took a photograph anyhow, thinking the fact that there were two spirits between himself and the figure interesting.

How to Throw a Punch

badass 1

Who: Hunt and Tad
Where: The high school parking lot
When: mid-morning

This wasn't like Tad, forgetting books and then sneaking out in the morning to break back into the high school to retrieve his history text that he'd need to work on his project with Dean. But then again, having friends and confessing to a girl how he felt about her wasn't much like him either. He realized with an internal chuckle that it had been a while since he'd acting much like old Tad in a while.

where: graevaraet middle school
when: midday

Kaysen was out. She didn't feel like being home, since things were still massively tense, Isaac was still leaving, and there wasn't a single good place to be in that house. So, she'd taken off. She'd grabbed her board, and was going to do some really stupid skateboarding in the snow. Down steps. And just general mind numbing shit. Whatever, she just wanted things to be over.

Identity Crisis

Tad_dodgeball

Who: Tad
Where: Tad's room
When: After school

To say the very least Tad was frustrated and overwhelmed. It had been four or five really long days with a ton going on and he was starting to feel like he was going through some sort of sensory overload. When he got home from school he immediately dropped his bag, coat and shoes at the door making a beeline for his room where he flopped onto his bed face down, head buried in his pillow.

She hadn't meant to start the fire. She really, really hadn't. It had been an accident. She hadn't meant to char the walls, or warp the doorframe, she hadn't meant to set off the sprinklers in the room. It was under control. It hadn't gone anywhere. But still. She hadn't meant it.

Lauren was having trouble. This was mostly because she was confused. Generally speaking, she didn't have periods of time where she wasn't quite sure what she'd been doing, or where she'd been, but the past night or so, it seemed to be the case. It was almost like she'd taken up sleeping again.

The Art of Being No Help

far head down walking

Who: Tad and Jesse
Where: School hallway
When: Between classes

Tad wasn't sure how exactly to approach someone in the way he was having to approach Jesse, so he'd just opted for loitering in the general area he'd figured out Jesse's locker was in. Thankfully the swelling from his Friday afternoon beating had gone down completely and the remaining bruises were mostly the standard yellow and purpling under his eye and lip. It wasn't the worst he'd looked with bruises, but it probably wasn't his best either. At least he didn't look grotesque enough to scare the guy off right?

He was half pacing along the lockers, avoiding people who came to use their lockers, trying to keep his head down long enough to make it through this conversation before getting crammed into something and trying to keep an eye out for Jesse coming down the hall.

Who: Tad, Kaysen and Porter
Where: Kaysen's house
When: midday

Try as hard as he could Tad could not sit still long enough to do anything all morning. He'd tried at least three different video games, tried getting a jump start on his project with Dean or the other homework that was piling up, tried just dancing around his room to loud music and none of it worked. He was still jittery and completely unfocused. Giving up he grabbed his bike and did his best to brave the weather and less than ideal road conditions to just wander around town.

Getting Started

sh smirk

Who: Tad and Dean
Where: Tad's house
When: afternoon

Tad had spent most of the morning trying to clean up his room while at the same time trying to keep it from looking like an IKEA ad. Kaysen's off-hand comment from the day before had made him anxious about the giant mess he had floating about, but he wasn't sure how impressed Dean would be with a completely spic and span room. Dean was a guy afterall. Plus Tad had a lot of stuff and it didn't all seem to fit in proper places.

Finding a Friend

who: Tad and Kaysen
Where: MSHS / Tad's house
When: after school...

Tad should have gone around the gym, but it was cold and he didn't want to bother. He probably should have remembered that practice of whatever team got out the same time as detention. But after sitting through two hours of detention for something he didn't even know happened, let alone do, his brain was fried and he wasn't thinking clearly.
