A fourteen-year-old boy with alarming amounts of blood dripping off his upper body and trickling out his mouth comes stumbling through the door.

"Shower," he says.

And then, more urgently, "ShowerLuckily for him, despite his single-minded attention to getting some place where he can have a wash, one of the waitrats notices him and wisely hands ( Read more... )

It isn't actually Christmas back home, but Albus has been in and out of Milliways often enough that it'd be odd not to leave a little something for his friends here.

So.

For: David Posner, Karkat Vantas, Alex Rider, Kate Barlow, the lady Viola, Lily Evans, William Evans, and (because he could never leave him out, considering) Scorpius Malfoy --

Scorpius, in a brief interlude from his summer holiday, drops in for a brief visit and leaves Yuletide gifts for Parker, Lily, Annabeth, Posner, Orpheus, Mia, Cepheus, Draco, Kate, Alex Rider, William Evans, Sameth, and Albus with Bar.

So, rather than lie around and be depressed or whatever, he's found a place outside where someone set up a punching bag ( Read more... )

Albus is not the sort of boy who would draw hearts around people's names.

First of all, things between him and Scorpius are something of a secret to most of the people he knows (Rose, back home, being just about the only exception of this - as there was absolutely no way he could ever keep such a thing a secret from her ( Read more... )

[oom: after Guppy offers Alex a neutral shore.

"ghosts and clouds and nameless things -
squint your eyes and hope real hard,
maybe sprout wings."

Having gotten over his cold from earlier, and through a good chunk of his japanese homework, (He can at least ask for the polite directions to the bathroom without the 'gotta pee' dance being involved) Tyler's up in the rafters with an odd little colorful gun in his hands. Last time he tried it out with Duck it just shot out multicolored bubbles ( Read more... )
