"Uhm... Techno?"
"Yeah?" Techno replied, tearing his eyes away from the screen.
"Do you mind... guarding the door while i shower? Like i did for Toby. It's not that i don't trust you i just-"
"Sure." Techno agreed, getting up from his seat.
-
"Tech i said get ready for bed." Phil said, walking up the stairs.
"I'm guarding the door. Will asked me to."
"Oh. Ok..." Phil trailed off, walking to his room.
-
The door opened and Techno smiled up at Will.
"You ok?"
"Mhm. Thanks."
"No problem man. Anytime ok?"

The process of enrolling and introducing Will and Toby to school was starting and it was... interesting.
They would either have to be several years behind or do extra lessons and have extra homework to make up for almost 5 years of missed schooling.
They were also starting part way through a term.
"We're gonna go visit the school you guys are gonna go to today." Phil said to Will stabbing his pancakes with his fork.
"There won't be anyone there but us and the teachers we're gonna meet."
"Dad can i hangout with Freddie today?" Tommy asked.
"Don't you wanna show Toby around your school?" Phil asked.
"We're going like 2 more times after this, cant i show him then? Freddie got a new game."
"Do you not wanna go with Toby?" Kristin asked.
"Can i just not go this one time? I'll go every other time."
"Fine but you better keep that promise." Phil said.
<————>
"Right, we're here. I'll be with you the whole time, dont worry. Techno will help you too." Phil said, parking.
They got into the school and the headteacher met them.
"Hello Sym- sorry- Orion."
"Hello Miss." Techno smiled.
"And you must be Will." She said.
Will stepped back slightly.
"Yes." Phil awnsered for them. "Well shall you guys go meet some teachers and i'll talk to Phil." The teacher smiled.
Techno lead Will to a classroom. "I know what order we're going in and who we're meeting."
"Did she- Did she use my name?" Will asked.
"Mhm. Dad signed you up as Will."
Will smiled and Techno lead him to a door.
"This is Mr Fitz. Hes one of my favourite teachers." Techno explained before knocking and opening the door.
"Ahh hello Orion." A man smiled.
"Hi. My brother have come to visit to look around."
"I heard. Come on in." The man smiled again.
Will smiled.
Brother.
