Amy wandered into the common room pretty early on Thursday, partially to make herself a cup of coffee before work and partially so she wouldn't disturb Raven with the quick phone call she had with Karma ( Read more... )

"I could use fifty bucks," Anders announced from outside the common room door. He'd been idly considering stopping in for breakfast, but with money he could buy many breakfasts. "Why are you trying to get rid of your phone?"

"I'm really tired and I can't stop myself from telling the truth about things, even though I have more than ample reason to lie," Amy blurted out. "See? I'm being weirdly honest right now. And I can't afford to do that with certain people since it would ruin my life and theirs and the fallout would not be good, so here."

She thrust her phone out in his direction. "Can I pay you at the end of the day?"

She was aware that she probably seemed crazy, but it was a small price to pay.

"You probably wouldn't actually ruin your life, but I'll take money if you're giving it up," Anders told her. "I wish I were the type of person to say I didn't need to be paid to do a favor, but the truth is not having money is awful, and you clearly have too much if you're willing to give me $50 instead of just sticking your phone on a high shelf for the day."

He sighed. "-- and apparently I'm saying everything too. Fantastic."

"I really do," Amy admitted. "And it's worth it if it means I won't be tempted to get stuff off my chest. Because telling the truth would make me feel better, but it would ruin a lot else, and if Karma and I are ever going to be together or even stay friends, she cannot find out that I slept with her boyfriend."

That was a lot of italics, Amy. Also, a lot of confessing.

"Wait, why are you being weirdly honest? Is this a schoolwide thing?"

"Glad someone else hates phones just as much as I do," Ronan said having caught that statement and little else. He wandered into the common room, sans Chainsaw, and raised an eyebrow in Amy's direction.

Safe to say he hadn't realized something was amiss as of yet because he didn't tend to lie and he didn't talk to many people either.

"It's more that I hate myself," Amy corrected him. "The phone is just the way I'm embarrassing myself and potentially ruining my life today, because apparently I have completely lost the ability to lie convincingly. Which is kind of an important skill in my life."

She buried her face in her hands. "Why can't I stop talking."

"That was a lot of words," Ronan agreed, keeping his eyebrow raised because okay then. "Anything interesting you're trying to lie about? Just throw your phone away if you're that concerned."

He'd do it for her if she wanted.

"I think I found a buyer, but I definitely made myself seem like a rich bitch in the process," Amy complained. "But it's worth it, since the alternative is telling my friend I got drunk and ruined her relationship when she said she didn't love me." And now she was mortified for being a terrible person on top of her general incompetence today. "Why am I telling people that? I can't fucking believe this."
