[rippled]

[ hands you tuesday pc like asked for

but hewwo. ]

How did your reunions go?

[midway]

[ Yay. ]

They were good, for the most part. What about you?

[rippled]

It was almost like I never left.

[ they stare at him. ]

Nothing too surprising?

[midway]

No? Should there have been?

[rippled]

I don't know...

[ they're just nosy after watching when everyone got off the train. ]

Is your room the same? No one has moved in?

[midway]

[ ??? ]

No? Did that happen to you?

[rippled]

Marcoh had, but he apparently moved his stuff out after the events of the weekend.

[ tries not to think of what may have happened in that room while they were gone ]

[midway]

... But you're not rooming with Marcoh, are you?

[rippled]

No... he had moved into my room after I was killed...

[ uruha and marcoh are gay.... ]

Which I suppose is fair, as I was not using it.

[midway]

[ . . . ]

Is this a roundabout way of asking to stay in my room?

[rippled]

No! [ huffs! ] I would simply move in.

[ they would not ask for permission. ]

I just needed to complain.

[midway]

Your roommate replaced you with his boyfriend, huh? That is pretty annoying.

We singles will have to stick together.

[rippled]

[ thank you for validating them being annoying. ]

Yes, yes. It is the only way we will get through this.

[ ... ]

So you are really still not seeing anyone... interesting...

[midway]

If there's something you want to say, just say it.

[ also this icon is so cute ]

[rippled]

I was just watching the reactions of when we got off the train...

[midway]

I'm not dating Anders.

[rippled]

[ mumbled, ]

I am allowed to be curious! All I had to hear about were people talking about romance over on the other side.

[midway]

I think it's fair to be curious...

But I don't think there are any more pairs that we don't know about.

[rippled]

That is likely true...

[ hmm. they clear their throat. ]

Khalid, tell me something about yourself. I will do an exchange.

[midway]

Alright.

[ Thinks... ]

My mother once tied me to a horse and set it off to punish me for misbehaving.

[rippled]

[ they wrinkle their nose. ]

Why in the world would she choose to do that...?

[midway]

My parents pretty firmly believed that whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.

[rippled]

Ah...

[ that explains that. they want to ask how old he was, but that probably doesn't matter in the grand scheme of it all.

but hmm, they did offer an exchange, so– ]

I was banished from my homeland by my father.

[midway]

[ He blinks, and then frowns. ]

Why?

[rippled]

... I was ordered to punish my brother, and I killed him. So I was banished.

[ there's a pause. ]

I was told the actual reason is more likely that my father was scared of me. I'm very strong, you know. It was better to keep me at a distance.
