[All he hears is 'problems'. The hair on the back of the boy's neck bristles.] What's going on? [Oboro's voice is completely serious.

He'll skip his community service if he needs to.]

[shesgotguts]

[yike. she made a mistake. and what a dumb reason to get him all worked up over!]

Oboro, it's fine. It's silly, okay? Calm down. It's just about a boy. [don't do anything rash, okay?]

[crowkid]

[Calm down? He's calm.

Or, at least, he's taking care to sound calm, even as his heartbeat throbs in his neck.] A boy.

What did the boy do?

[shesgotguts]

[dread starts to pool in her stomach, and she tries to laugh, but she's worried he's gonna say something mean when she tells him about The Dumb Thing.]

He didn't do anything yet! He-- [she takes a deep breath, and drags her hand down her face. not like he can see, but that sigh should give it away.] Okay, I. I like this boy, and I invited him over to talk to him, but I'm really nervous that he's going to reject me, and I called you because I wanted to talk to someone. He hasn't done anything. I'm just nervous about what he will do.

[crowkid]

[Yet.

Oboro focuses on that word, his fingers balling into fists. Just in case.] He won't hurt you. I won't let him.

Should I come home? [He can be there for support - and to toss the guy out if he's not properly enamored with Milly.]

[shesgotguts]

Oboro, it's okay. I. I don't know what he'll do, but its fine! [fake it 'till you make it!]

I want you home, but he's coming over! And if you're there, I'm just going to ignore him the whole time! We'll see each other later, right?

[crowkid]

[I don't know what he'll do is not confidence inspiring.

It's not fine!

But he's got work to do, and she doesn't want him to interrupt, so he'll just be sure not to take on any EXTRA tasks for the day.] I'll be home tonight to see you.

Call me if you need anything, and I'll come right away.
