[He is sneaking out of the fin dorm! He's trying his best and so did Persephone, but Levity still looks like shit. He's wearing the full-face version of his mask, too, probably because no one wants to see him being melty.]
Hey, Ner'. Sorry, 's hard to type an' I w's still in the main room so I couldn't realley vossmail, Jas'n'd've heard...
Re: post-taxes, late night, after drunk-texting lucifel
But Nero does look sick with worry and vibrating with restless anxiety, being so close to Jason but not able to see him. He's carrying a bag and... a life sized cardboard cut out of himself?]
I-it's okay. I'm just glad I can give you stuff.
Re: post-taxes, late night, after drunk-texting lucifel
[Ohhhhhh no poor Nero!!! Levity would probably tear up if he could because he, too, is a softie dumbass who thinks this is very sweet.]
Ohhh... We wanned to get one ofthese of 'tensity, for after he graduates too... So he's still with us...
[He'll take the bag and, uh, cardboard Nero.]
Wan' me to tell him anythin'? Apart from makin' him call you. Heavens, he's so stupid... He's got you an' he's just, sittin' there drowning himself in booze.
Re: post-taxes, late night, after drunk-texting lucifel
It was Gold's idea, I dunno. Might make him laugh.
I got him more smokes, some snacks... an audiobook player loaded with the complete works of Shakespeare, Austin, Vonnegut and Dumas - he can play that in the background, maybe it'll relax him. There's a hangover cure, if he feels like stopping. (Maybe refrigerate that.) And... whiskey with sleeping potion, if he just needs to. Rest for a bit...
[He sounds sad when he says it, but. Maybe it's for the best.]
Re: post-taxes, late night, after drunk-texting lucifel
[NERO... IS SO FUCKING CUTE... Levity goes to pat him on the shoulder softly.]
'm gonna tell him he's realllllly lucky t' have you. Think the audiobook'll work well... He doesn't relly let people be 'round him when he's depressed, but Shrike said to also. Gettim to have people aroun' when he's sleepening... this might work.
[Thinking through being wasted is hard. He stays silent for a bit, gathering his thoughts.]
Rest migh' be best f'rhim... He said bein' awake like this's worse than sleepin'.
Re: post-taxes, late night, after drunk-texting lucifel
[He smiles too but uh, his mask's in the way, actually.]
'f course. Jasson helped me deal with... things too. He's a good man. I'll text you how it goes, right?
[He disappears back into the dorm, and about ten minutes later a text arrives.]
