"So then i said that i'd become prom queen, right. And guess what she said back?!". Thera huffed as she, her brother, Emily and Zane all walked through the last few halls before their destination. Thad, Thera and Emily going to Yeva's lonely home as that was where their stuff was while the fourth drone tagged along purely because he had nothing better to do.
"That its impossible?". Zane shot back with a smirk from the other side of Emily, his girlfriend for once exercising her implied higher social status due to heritage and ending up in the most converted spot within a walking group of teenagers. The middle. Thad trailing behind and minding his own business while the other three talked, or more exactly Thera talked and the other three listened.
"That she's going to win?". Thad guessed, knowing how his ex acted when any sort of important event was to happen.
"Tha, yeah that. Lizzy said that she'd win by a landslide.". Thera answered the pair, rounding a corner and sighting the door they were looking for. A small rubber arch doormat placed outside, its black surface blending easily with the monotonous metal flooring of the colony hallways but also standing out due to its lack of sheen. It had only been put out last week apparently, Yeva for once doing something that showed her as alive to the population here.
"Predictable, sh, she always acts like.. like that.". Emily chimed with a slight stutter, stowing her lack of energy to show later and expecting an energy crash before 8PM.
The group stepping up to it and being surprised when the door opened automatically for them.
"Uhm... ok.". Thera inspected the door from inside as the rest of them entered the house to see Yeva out cold on the couch and understanding why she had left the door open for them.
"That explains it...". Thera said, Thad looking plainly at her before they all dispersed to do after school activities. The Vitrum siblings heading for their mattresses while the other two moved over to the dining table and talked between themselves, Zane making sure to close and lock the door behind him.
Within the next minutes the house became lively but just as quiet as it always was, all seven drones within it keeping to themselves or quiet as to not disturb the lasting sleep of Yeva. Her body getting the rest it needed despite not being plugged in to recharge, Thera believing it to be a simple matter of Yeva falling asleep to fast to get to plug herself in. The extension lead still on the floor and resting just as untouched as the purple haired mother was, Thad managing to half copy them as he laid flat on his bed and kicked off his shoes. Thinking to himself.
Doll wasn't here, or really. He hadn't checked if she was here because he was to busy thinking. What if she wasn't here and he just tried to raid Doll's room without any sort of consent, his father's and his own morals colliding hard with that idea so he discarded it for the time being. Asking Yeva was something he could do later when she woke up, for now he just tried to quiet his thoughts on his rather dangerous classmate. Thad mentally noting that it seemed the most fearful for any reason out of his school cohort were all girls, Uzi taking the cake with Doll and Lizzy following up due to having connections. Doll obviously for taking out a murder drone and then helping kill something that looked way worse while and he could easily remember why Uzi was dangerous. Meanwhile Lizzy had most of the school around her finger and this allowed her to do some rather crazy things, Thad stoped himself as he thought over that. She could probably successfully pressure the WDF into reversing Doll's banishment if she tried, certainly that was better then anything Emily could do.
Thad's mind then wondering over to if it was worth him asking Lizzy to do that. Doll was a, friend. Or so he liked to believe, he wasn't quite sure. Then, in comparison of course he had no problem with N. N seemed like quite the upstanding guy compared to his comrades who were exactly who had managed to land themselves in at least one restless sleep fear based nightmare. That dead and undead one along with miss pigtails. Those two, in all their ground hosted skin and bladed contaminant glutton farce glory had been the ones who just wouldn't cease their hunting of him. Every shadow hiding an angel of fury, the thought of cutting regaled his mind with visions of sheathed claws, gods above was he really this paranoid?
