Love it well I’ll leave you alone now night

(Drink waterrrrr Bri)

Somehow, Kiara speaking fluent French has been the most surprising thing from these asks so far. Why do you know French?

"Hehe, Mom and I both do, it's a way to talk without Papi noticing; he always has his translator off. It's like a little secret language!"

"It's not like I want to hide things from him, but some things are better left between me and Mom."

NOOOOOOOOOO

DREI AND KOBIIIII NOOOOO

DEVASTATED IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT FOR HOW I FEEL

Tama, what do you think of Drei and Kobi?

She tilts her head for a moment before she shakes it.

"...ₙₑᵥₑᵣ ₘₑₜ... ₜₒₗ𝒹 ₜₕₑᵧ 𝓌ₑᵣₑ ₙᵢ𝒸ₑ 𝓌ₕₑₙ ₐₗᵢᵥₑ."

Uh where can I join? :3

Would it concern you that I am part of a group named the Uzi cult?

First the Cyn cult. Now this?

yis

“Mom finds it annoying but I find it hilarious.”

Oh she was just being a gentleman :D

Oh yeah, has Bishop seen the rings?

"Rings?"

He gets a curious look on his face and goes searching for his sister, finding the door to her room slightly cracked. There are two voices on the other side in hushed tones.

"You think you'll regret it?"

"Of course not. We both agreed on it right?"

Oh! Miss Roth must be staying over again... but what are they talking about?

"Just wanna make sure you're okay doing this, it's not fun otherwise."

Wat?

The sides of his head burn, s-should he be listening to this?

He knocks on the door briskly before walking in. He stumbles on... a scene.

Tera is slipping a ring on Kiara's finger, it's gems now modified to be partially teal and partially purple. They both immediately jolt, staring up at Bishop as his eyes wander to the matching ring around Tera's neck.

His eyes hollow.

"N-no. B, this- I can explain..." Tera moves a bit towards him, nerves displayed clearly on her visor.

He's screaming down the stairs a moment later. "TERA AND KIARA ARE ENGAGED! SHE JUST PROPOSED!"

"SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU GOD DAMN DRAMA QUEEN!" Tera roars after him- trying to catch him to literally shove a sock in his mouth.

Do you want more examples cause I will

hi ma'am Tera!

You said your favorite color is lavender and your "friend" (romantic partner) likes teal :D

So I got yall these! Tippy toes

*hands 2 small rings, one was a lavender purple gem with a silver base. While the other one was teal with a gold base. They both had the same swirly look in the actual ring part.*

I really hope you like it!!! I specifically picked them for yall! Giggle

Also fun fact snails have teeth >:3

-silly anon

Her eyelights go hollow instantly, fingers fumbling the rings. She looks back into the room, Kiara is asleep on the bed, Mars Bar curled up in her arms like a big living teddy bear.

"I-I What?"

"I can't give her t-this! This looks like an engagement ring!" She's blushing, and also panicking, tail now thrashing behind her.

"Oh God...I love them she'd really like this... but she's totally gonna know somethings up if I give it to her..."

"T-thank you..."

I-I know the answer… *Nervous smile.*

I'm curious to know, how is Bishop dealing with the sudden potential mate problem?

He paces in his room after school, pulling at his own hair. Muttering to himself.

"Why now? Nothing happened, Nothing Changed. Why now?"

He pauses for a moment, before proceeding to pace. "Why him? What about us is compatible? We don't even talk that much. Why HIM?"

And this is how Koba came to be.

Watch out for Kiara Tera good luck.

Terapede. How are you doing?

She's just finished shoving herself back into her normal body, she's laying on the bed with her arms behind her head and a giant shit eating grin, the first two buttons of her flannel are open.

"Hehehe~"

NOOOOOOO I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS BRI PLS NO

Give me a Reason: Chapter 17 - "Thad"

Computer Literacy was blessedly easy at least, she thought as she stumbled into the classroom, taking a steadying breath.

Her eyes almost automatically glanced up at N, who had nearly always given her a wave when he saw her enter, though today it looked like he was completely absorbed in conversation with someone else, a boy in a red backwards hat, brown peeking out from underneath it. Who was leaning on the back of her usual seat with his arms crossed.

She warily approached, was she going to have to find somewhere else to sit? There were a couple of others still free but, her and N were partners, how would they still work together?

She ignored the second train of thought, the one that was making her heart ache slightly at the prospect of having to go elsewhere, bring replaced by a more interesting friend so easily.

But, she didn't even have time to question it before N noticed her, and he gave her a radiant smile. “Hey Uzi! Sorry Thad, that's her seat your leaning on.”

The boy looked back at her, his eyes a dull green, like grass that had been shocked with weedkiller. A sports jacket clung to his shoulders, ‘Copper Football Team’ emblazoned on the front in yellow letters.

“Oh Hey, I'm Thad, sorry for taking your seat.” He moved off the back of her chair, dunking his hands in his pockets as he smiled, it was friendly, not as bright as N's but still warm and inviting.

“It's… fine.” She said awkwardly, in no real mood to socialize with the pain in her side.

“N said you two went ghost hunting last weekend. It's Gnarly, you two are braver then I am. I still get scared by the raccoon that lives under my house.”

Uzi blinked, taking a moment to register that she was being talked to, and a second more for her to realize it wasn't negative.

“Oh uh- Yeah, we did.” Uzi replied after a moment of struggling to bend down to put her backpack under the table, she didn't catch the way N looked at her worried lying when she flinched. “I wouldn't call N brave though, he got scared of an itty bitty spider, hehehe.”

“Hey!” N protested, pouting but not in a way that suggested he was actually upset.

“Aw she exposed you dude!” Thad laughed, but his attention was quickly back on her. “You're Uzi right? N mentioned your name, it's super badass. I wish I shared my name with a gun.”

Uzi felt herself blush, still not used to being complimented. And she couldn't really find the words to say to it either.

“I don't think Thad's a bad name.” N came to her rescue, thankfully. And Thad looked at him deadpan.

“When you find any character named “Thaddeus McFlynn” who isn't just in the background, or doesn't die a horrible death. Let me know.”

Uzi winced, man had a name like an old british man. She didn't envy him. N just shrugged.

“Anyway, I gotta get back to class, coach will chew my ass if I'm gone too long, I just came here to pick up his prints.” He picked up a stack of what looked like sign up papers, and turned back at N.

“Hey, I'm serious about signing up for one of our teams, you'd be great!” Thad gave him a finger gun and Uzi a small salute before he left the classroom, Uzi watching as he left.

N didn't really reply to that, just looked a little sad before shaking his head and returning all his attention to Uzi.

“Sorry about that. He was talking about me joining the basketball team since I'm so tall, then we somehow got onto what we did over the weekend and… yeah.” He rambled, but Uzi just nodded softly, it wasn't like she was expecting to remain N's only freind or anything, not with his personality. It's what she expected… honestly.

“It's fine.” How much had she said that today? It felt like a lot, her side throbbed uncomfortably as she tried to adjust.

“Hey uh. I know you told me to stop asking. And I promise I totally am, but… are you okay, you've looked uncomfortable all day.” He spoke up again after a second, and Uzi felt every single muscle in her body tense up, she was fine. She'd been through worse, way worse.

She turned to glare at him, words of vitriol bubbling up in her throat, but she only halfway opened her mouth before his soft, warm expression made them die into nothing, a gentle smile worn on his face and genuine concern behind those caramel eyes.

She sighed.

“I'm fine, really, just… had a run in with someone. I've been through worse.”

“Oh… well um…” N really didn't know how to help, that answer was… vague at best. But he didn't want to scare her off from opening up more by pushing her. “Do you wanna talk about it?”

She looked at him for a beat, taking in his nervous smile.

“No.” She replied simply, and the window he'd had was abruptly shut in his face. His smile fell a little.

“You can keep distracting me though. That's helping.” She added after a minute, and his head snapped back up, she was avoiding his eyes, but he caught a small smile gracing her face.

And with another brilliant smile, thats what he did, dragging her into a conversation about dogs that she did her best to listen intently to, the pain being slightly buried under the weight of his voice.

When it was finally time to go home, Uzi was bracing herself on one of the brick pillars in front of the building, knowing all she needed was to walk home and she could treat herself with some sweet, sweet painkillers. It was just… actually getting there that was going to be the difficult part.

It wasn't that far away, but with how difficult walking had become, she knew it was going to be complete and total agnoy. Stalling, she was stalling.

What were the chances of her dad actually being home for once to drive her back? Probably slim to none, but… she could check.

She pulled out her phone, Khan being the first name in her contacts, the second, and last, being N.

Uzi: Hey Dad, just wondering if u could pick me up from school today.

She stared at the messaging app for almost a full minute with no response before she grumbled, leaning against the brick and closing her eyes for a moment.

When she did eventually bring her head back up, she realized that she'd been standing against the pillar for way too long, the second wave of busses already on their way out, meaning she'd been there for at least ten minutes.

Maybe she was in more pain than she thought…

“Uzi?” A voice caught her attention, and she spun around to be face to face with N's stupidly tall figure, Thad was right… he would be good for basketball.

She was starting to feel warm, and slightly nauseous, neither were any good signs, bit both she ignored.

“O-oh hey N.” Shit, her voice was a little shaky now too, she placed a palm onto the brick behind her, feeling a bit like she might pass out. Crap, that probably meant Lizzy pinched something in her somewhere, that was great.

“I thought you would've left already. Don't you walk home?” One of his brows were raised, he looked behind her, Tessa had pulled in and was waiting for him.

“Just… enjoying the day…?”

“Why did that sound like a question?” He asked, clearly not believing her in the slightest. Uzi blinked, trying to stifle the painful tremble in her voice.

“It didn't.” She tried, trying to begin to walk away, only to stumble and nearly trip over nothing.

Fuck

“Woah hey! Uzi!” His hands were on her now, she didn't want them to be, she didn't want to be seen as weak, but her stupid body had at this point completely betrayed her, she felt the bile begin to burn it's way into her throat.

Oh shit not he-

She scrambled over to the nearest bush, throwing his hands off her and completely emptied her bruised stomach, holding onto one of those weird round concrete nubs for support.

When she finished, she shakily stood up, wiping her mouth, a small amount of blood coming off onto the back of her hand.

Still… she did feel marginally better.

N was behind her, looking between Tessa's car and her franticly, a hand gently resting on her back. She tried to catch her breath.

She heard a car door slam and rushing footsteps coming her direction before light invaded her vision

I'm about to pass out…

She thought before she felt herself begin to slowly fall backwards, before all her senses went to static…
