Poodle-I mean er Ian was sprawled across the grass by the lake, his guitar held across him as he just kind of fiddled with it. He had nothing in mind to really do, it was warm and the sun was out and he was just enjoying the spring-beginning of summer thing that was going on there.
Chizz was hungry and kind of wanted cheese. It was vaguely unsettling because he'd ended up stuck as a mouse for most the night and morning, so he wanted cheese and fruit. He kept flicking his hair out of his face and twitching his nose without even realizing it as he headed to the cafeteria, hands shoved deep in the pockets of his hoodie.
Jade was staring up at Shannon with something close to fear in his eyes, not that he'd ever admit it. But Shannon was a bit daunting at the best of times and old and Jade had been taught to fear old vampires so it kind of sucked. He shifted on the balls of his feet, shifting a little in front of Davey despite the fact he knew rationally Shannon was a teacher and Davey couldn't actually be harmed. Still, the Letos were creepy for all Jade insisted they weren't.
Shannon was just kind of watched Davey and Jade, arms crossed in front of his chest, foot tapping while he waited for the opportune moment to say something.

Shane was actually kind of dreading the start of summer. It meant school would be out soon enough, and after the summer he'd be in his last year of high school and that was just kind of terrifying actually. And he was kind of losing his mind about finals and about the classes he was going to take the next year. And by losing his mind, he totally meant he was mostly just ignoring it all and smoking out with Jon Walker, when Jon Walker was not busy with his very new son Jude.
Smith, who wasn't thinking, totally jumped on Chizz's back from behind and whooping. "MICHAEL!" Because he hadn't seen him all night, alright, and he was sure that Chizz had actually spent the night as a mouse again because he hadn't, but he wasn't going to say thing about it. He was just glad to see him and was showing his appreciation. He had his arms curled around Chizz' shoulders, legs around his waist, all pressed along his back.
Davey would be way way more amused by how freaked out Jade was if Jade wasn't actually so genuinely freaked out. To the point that he was shielding? Shielding Davey. He shook his head and huffed a sigh, nudging Jade to his side and tucking his arm around Jade's waist as he looked up at Shannon defiantly. The Leto's did not scare him. What were they going to do? Kill him? Kay. He was already dead, so really. Go for it. "...So is there a reason you asked us to come see you, Professor?" He asked finally, pushing his hair out of his face. It really was getting long.

Ian was a baaaaby and of course not at all worried about school, because he was Ian and he didn't really worry except in a vague sort of way where he wrinkled his forehead and demanded pot. He wasn't all that pleased with the fact that Shane only had a year left at school though, because that kind of sucked to Ian. It wasn't like he wouldn't see him at every holiday and family event or anything, but it was still pretty shitty to Ian. He'd been playing with teeny tiny Jude though, playing him Bob Marley and insisting that he would teach him all of it.
Chizz let out a squeak so manly it wasn't manly at all and transformed on accident. He hit the ground, still squeaking but this time as a mouse and doing his best to convey his 'you can't do THAT because I'll be a freak and turn into a mouse!' to Smith. Sadly, he didn't think it was going to work so well.
Jade wasn't really scared, he'd deny ever being scared. He was cautious for his health, that was it. He nodded his head when Davey spoke, leaning into him a little cause hey, touching was nice.
Shannon let his hands drop to his sides and nodded, actually looking slightly abashed for a split second before he looked normal. "School ends pretty soon right?" that was rhetorical, he didn't expect them to answer it. "I figured you should know, you're not actually stuck like that Mr… Marchand." He said, paused then shook his mumbled "I can see why you prefer Havok."
4:28 PMknownasria
Shane was absolutely freaking the fuck out. He really was. He was spending most of his time stoned, or playing with the baby, or studying for his finals, and he was just. Losing it. He came outside for a cigarette, shaking his hair out of his face. He hadn't flat ironed it today, and so it was a curly fucking mess. He spotted Ian and smiled to himself as he came down to him, lighting a cigarette as he walked.
Smith's reflexes kicked in before he dropped to the ground and he hit in a crouch, looking down at tiny little mouse!Chizz. "Aw... Michael, fuck. I'm sorry. I forgot. I wasn't thinking about it." He said softly and scooped the teensy little mouse up into his hands. "Come on, change back... It's okay, I'll keep you safe. I promise." Because he totally would, he adored Chizz and would always protect him. He wasn't sure if Chizz actually got that or not though, but he knew he would.
"...Lets not make fun of my choice in last names, alright?" Davey asked in a somewhat haughty tone, because really? Shannon dropped that bomb then made fun of his name? He was smiling a little bit because he kind of liked the idea of you know, not being fucking stuck as a phantom. "How aren't I stuck? How do we fix it?" He asked and watched Shannon curiously. "And why didn't you tell us sooner?"
4:34 PMElizabeth A Talbot
Ian got this kind of ridiculous grin on his face at the sight of Shane because he hadn't seen him enough lately. He waved a hand kind of lazily and set his guitar aside so that he could pretty much attach himself to Shane and nuzzle into his hair. "Nice hair." He commented, teasing.
Chizz squeaked and looked at Smith with big mouse eyes when he said he would keep him safe, letting that click through his brain before he changed back, becoming Human!Chizz again. He scrubbed over his hair with his hand then wiggled his fingers. "Digits, ace." He said with a grin. He didn't quite get it, but he was kind of dumb.
Jade was being kind of quiet, his lips twitched into a little disbelieving smile over the news. He was also tempted to punch Shannon for not telling them sooner, but teeny-tiny disbelieving smiling was winning.
Shannon shrugged, replying in a slightly haughty tone of his own. "I won't make fun when there's nothing to make fun of." He shrugged, rubbing over the stubble on his chin. "Well, first I didn't say anything because I wasn't sure if you're idiot boyfriend had actually left you stuck for good." He had this sort of look on his face like he really thought Jade was retarded for leaving Davey a phantom but then it cleared and his lips twitched into a little smirk. "Then, I figured I'd let you two stew until I felt like saying something." He said with a shrug. What he wasn't mentioning was Jared bitching. He never mentioned Jared bitching except to Jared.
4:59 PMknownasria
Shane laughed lowly and curled his arms around Ian, dragging him in close, almost into his lap. He smiled at the nuzzling and was just kind of instantly relaxed, now that he was in Ian's presence. "Yeah, yeah. Says the one who looks like a poodle regularly." Shane had tried to talk Ian into letting him flat iron Ian's hair, just to see how long it would be once it was straightened out. Because it was pretty long curly, so he figured it'd be down Ian's back ironed. Then again, he loved Ian's curls. He turned his head and kissed at Ian's jaw once lightly.
Smith smiled a little bit and stepped back as Chizz shifted back to human. He kind of kept his hands curled around his waist though and watched him carefully. "You know I wouldn't hurt you, right?" He asked, chewing lightly at the inside of his lip. He was always cutting them up from worrying them, but he couldn't really help it. It was a nervous habit. He smoothed his hand up over Chizz's side as he watched him, waiting for his response.
Davey smiled at that because yeah, he kind of liked Shannon. Seriously. Even though he was kind of a bastard. "So you let us sit and wait and freak about me being a phantom because you wanted to what, punish us? Make us see the error of our ways? ...I haven't been able to go outside in the daylight for 8 months." Davey said softly, lips turned down in a frown. He crossed his arms around himself and stood with a hip jutted and eyes narrowed fiercely. "It wasn't your right to keep it from us, if you know how to help. You should have helped. We knew the mistake we made, we understand we fucked up. It's not fair you kept it from us."
5:07 PMElizabeth A Talbot
Ian moved the little bit of distance left into Shane's lap, arms curling around Shane's neck. "Fuck you, it's a trademark." He insisted, grinning a little and letting his head rest against Shane's shoulder. He'd probably let it be straightened like once, just to see how long it was.
Chizz nodded, leaning against Smith a little when he didn't let go. Smith was comfortable and Chizz liked him, so he didn't see why not. "I know." He said, bringing one shoulder up a little bit in a sort of shrug as he spoke next "It's just kind of instinct."
Shannon shrugged, not particularly phased. Or at least, he didn't look phased. He flapped a hand a bit, sparing a thought to wonder when the hell he'd picked up that habit over the years. "Yes, yes, I'm a shitty person who doesn't help people when I should. This has been established a few times in my existence. Do you want to know how to fix it or not?" He asked, eyebrows raising.
Jade tugged Davey a bit closer to himself, frowning now and muttering about shitty vampires. But he kind of nodded, looking at Davey to answer because this was Davey's thing to Jade, as much as Jade had done what led to it Davey was the one stuck as the phantom right then.
5:30 PMknownasria
Shane laughed and slipped his hand up into the back of Ian's hair, just kind of petting through it. He was grinning a little bit as he nodded. "Your mop is totally a trademark, yeah. I'd know you a mile away, so long as you never cut your hair. Then again, I probably still would anyway." He admitted and shrugged his shoulders.
"Well. I mean, I'd make sure you won't get hurt either. You shouldn't be so afraid." Smith stated and moved so his arms were curled around Chizz's waist with a little grin. Chizz wasn't shoving him off and that was pretty good signs, he thought. Or at least, he hoped. He stepped in closer and hooked his chin over Chizz's shoulder.
Davey raised an eyebrow at the little flailing hand gesture because it was possibly the most emotion he'd ever seen Shannon display. He rolled his eyes next and shook his head. "I didn't say you were a shitty person. You're obviously not, or you wouldn't help us at all. Of course I want to know." Davey said because really? No. He wanted to stay half dead for the rest of eternity. He curled himself against Jade's side more tightly and watched Shannon.
5:36 PMElizabeth A Talbot
Ian leaned into the petting happily, making a little breeze blow and ruffle Shane's hair to show he approved. "I'm incomparable or whatever. You'll always recognize me." He said with a little nod, tugging on a piece of Shane's hair lightly.
Chizz shook his head a little bit, chewing on his lips for a moment before he spoke. "M not afraid. Not really. I just get startled and I change before I realize it." He explained, shrugging. It was hard to figure out completely, he didn't understand why he was always randomly changing into a mouse, but he figured it had something to do with moods or something like that.
Shannon shrugged, not really acknowledging the first part but letting his lips twitch into a small smirk when Davey said he wanted to know. "Vampire blood. Old vampire blood. Mr. Puget wasn't old enough to turn anyone, let alone someone with supernatural blood that could fight it in some way, so it didn't take completely, leading to your phantom state. So, you need some vampire blood. Preferably over a few hundred years old." He explained.
Jade kind of blinked, but curled his arms tighter around Davey when he curled into himself more. "..That's all?" He asked, head tilting, because vampire blood seriously didn't seem like much.
5:49 PMknownasria
Shane smiled at the little breeze and dipped his head to press his lips to Ian's lightly, for the first time in a good while. He nodded softly "I most certainly always will. Not that I ever actually plan on letting you go long enough to have to just randomly pick you out from somewhere. You're kinda stuck with me, kid." He said, lips twitched into this tiny grin.
"At least you make a cute little mouse." Smith said brightly and nodded his head, hand still skimming over Chizz's side while he stood with him. Smith was touchy feely, okay? Or at least, he was with Chizz. He liked Chizz, damnit. And he didn't actually know how to say it, so he hadn't yet and kept trying to get him to understand with the way he was grabby and clingy.
"...So yours. Or your brothers." Davey said, voice monotone, face blank as he stared at Shannon. The fact that this was all due to Jade just having been too fucking young was kind of funny if he actually thought about it, but he really wasn't focussing on that right now. He was more focused on the fact that Jared or Shannon could fix it. "...And then I'll be a vampire, instead of a phantom fey. Will I still be fey?" He asked, curiously.
5:59 PMElizabeth A Talbot
Ian smiled broadly at that, pressing his lips to Shane's easily and pressing close. "That's cool. You're pretty stuck too." He said, kissing at Shane's grin again because he was pretty happy with it.
Chizz kind of blushed at that, shrugging and pressing the side of his face against Smith's shoulder. "William screeched the first time I changed in front of him." He pointed out finally. "Something about creepy rodents." He said with a little nod. Gabe had offered to feed him to Sassy and see if he was immortal and Chizz had decided that avoiding Gabe as a mouse was smart.
Shannon nodded, glad that Davey didn't have to ask who would work. "That's right. Jared's technically the older vampire, but I'm older altogether." He said with a shrug. Then he nodded again. "And then you'll be a vampire. Vampire fey. Pretty sure the fey sticks, biological make up and all that." He said.
Jade had the disbelieving smile thing going on again. The teeny one like he kind of couldn't believe it would work, but was willing to. He was kind of holding onto Davey deathly tight as well. He was also kind of relieved that he hadn't actually done anything wrong, it'd just been a technicality that had made Davey a phantom. He was so going to rub that in Smith's face after.
6:19 PMknownasria
"Glad we're stuck together." Shane said honestly and kissed at Ian's bottom lip lightly. He liked the whole kissing thing, honestly. Kissing was pretty awesome, especially when it was with Ian. When he could bury his hands into Ian's curls and hold him as close as he possibly could.
Smith slipped a hand up to play with a strand of Chizz's hair, keeping his other arm around Chizz's waist. "William's a bitch, and he doesn't appreciate you like I do. He's too busy worshipping at the altar of the Cobra." He said with a laugh because William was totally taken with Gabe, okay, he could make jokes. And seriously, when he'd heard Gabe joking once about it he'd punched him in the face and told him that if anything happened to Chizz he was going to kill the stupid fucking snake. So he'd better watch it. Smith was a little um. Protective. Yeah that's the word.
Davey was a smart kid, alright? He could totally catch on. He nodded his head slightly and watched Shannon with his head tilted. "Is you telling us you volunteering to fix it though, is the thing? Or do I have to go and find your brother and beg him to do it?" He really wasn't so keen on the thought of having to ask Jared to do it, not because he disliked Jared, but because if Shannon was here telling them about it, then he should just do it for them shouldn't he? He looked up at Jade and smiled at the little smile on his face, mumbling softly. "Babe, you're kind of crushing my spleen." He said and wiggled in Jade's arms because yeah, actually not being crushed to deader death would be good.
6:24 PMElizabeth A Talbot
"Hey, if I'm gonna be stuck with someone I'd rather it be you." Ian said with an earnest look and then leaned in to kiss Shane again. He liked kissing Shane more than anyone else, really, because Shane put his hands in the right place and Ian could cling and well, he was Shane.
Chizz laughed at that, nodding his head. "He's mean for a mate." He said with a shake of his head. "But he's alrigh I guess." he said, grinning a bit because William was awesome. Chizz had been new that year too, since his family had just moved to the States and wanted Chizz at a school there, so he'd been kind of lost a lot. He'd had to hug Smith when smith had threatened Gabe on behalf of him, it'd been a nice moment.
Shannon shrugged his shoulders slightly. "I don't think Jared would require begging as much as he'd like to see it. But no, this is me offering." He said. He kind of liked helping sometimes, as much as he enjoyed watching the chaos sometimes. He liked the kids at the school at least, some of them were alright.
Jade nodded, making a little 'oh' noise and loosening his grip on Davey while flashing a small smile at Shannon when he agreed. "Sorry Davey." He mumbled about the crushing.
6:41 PMknownasria
Shane just grinned and nudged his nose to Ian's gently. He slid a hand down from Ian's hair to rest at the small of Ian's back as he kissed him, pressing his palm flat there. He hummed for a moment before he caught his teeth lightly at Ian's bottom lip, just a playful little nip.
"Horribly mean, honestly." Smith said with a little grin and a nod. "But he can be perfectly sweet when he's not being a total dick, so I guess he's good enough." He was mostly kidding around, because he honestly did like William. Gabe, no so much, because Gabe was kind of a fucking creep and had kind of stared at him in utter shock when he'd threatened Sassy's life then told Smith in all seriousness that he was a 'cad'. Smith had seriously just stared at him blankly and shook his head before walking away because what? A cad?
Davey smiled easily at Jade and leaned in, kissing lightly and easily at his jaw very quickly. "It's okay." He looked back to Shannon and smirked, lips just twitched up into it without really thinking about it. He was tempted to ask if Jared ever made Shannon beg, but he really didn't actually want to piss Shannon off. "So when do you want to fix this?" He asked softly, eyes wide and actually looking kind of afraid for a moment. He'd almost died once. It really hadn't been a fun thing.
6:47 PMElizabeth A Talbot
Ian pressed back into the touch a little bit, letting out a small noise at the biting. He flicked his tongue against Shane's lip, tugging slightly at his hair and letting his hands move down to smooth over his shoulders.
Chizz nodded his head up and down. "The meanest of the mean hoons." He said. He leaned against Smith a bit more, bumping his nose to Smith's shoulder. "You're pretty alright though." He said with a little smile. He'd laughed when Gabe said 'cad', because he laughed at that word, he couldn't help it and called Gabe some interesting words Gabe hadn't understood.
Jade nodded a little when Davey said it was okay then kissed back, pressing his lips to Davey's lightly. He, unlike Davey wasn't so good and blurted out the thought of "So, does Jared make you beg?" without thinking about it much because he was curious.
Shannon looked blankly at them, rolled his eyes and gave a short nod. "Occasionally." He was making an amused face inside though. "Soon, preferably. You've only got a couple weeks left of the semester before summer and doing it before then would be preferable, I'm sure." He said, pressing his fingers together. It was preferable to him as well, because he liked actually leaving the school sometimes to do adult vampire things.
7:12 PMknownasria
Shane was parting his lips when Ian's tongue was flicking at them because he was kind of easy for Ian, if he were entirely honest. Like really easy, actually, and he was pulling Ian as close as he could manage and kind of laying back in the grass because he enjoyed having Ian over hin,
"Hoon?" Smith asked curiously because anytime Chizz said something decidedly not American Smith was right there to be like ...the fuck does that mean, yo? He smiled at the nudging to his shoulder and turned his head to brush his lips over Chizz's temple lightly, then down his cheek to his jaw. "Pretty alright is good enough for me. So long as I'm accepted I'm doing fantastic." He said brightly and grinned up at Chizz because Chizz was just the slightest bit taller than him. He'd punched Gabe pretty hard for calling him a cad, later on in the day, and then had felt bad when Gabe had gone all big eyes and all 'I DON"T EVEN KNOW WHAT CAD MEANS I'M SORRY.' To be honest, Smith and Gabe got on pretty well, if a little violently.
Davey stared at Jade because dude. Jade had totally said it and he looked slowly to Shannon like o.O and then blushed because well. That was dirty. That was several different kinds of dirty and he was pretty sure they were the only students who now knew fer sure that Jared and Shannon were closer than um... Regular brothers were. Whatever. Davey wasn't even actually disturbed by it, just by the fact that Shannon had actually answered. He nodded his head with a little grin. "Whenever you'd like."
