[ of course, as it turns out, the one thing that she's forgotten to mention to lyssa was the fact that she didn't really have a convenient method of transportation. all she'd asked for the location & time, thinking that would have been enough. of course it hadn't been.

... oh well.

hooking her small messenger bag-slash-purse on her shoulder, she bids her dad goodbye after reassuring him that she'll be back by ten (yes, yes, don't worry, just the mall--). & promptly feels glad that she left two hours before the time she's supposed to meet lyssa 'cause she just missed the bus & the next one won't be arriving for another half-hour. she settles down, pews & waits. long story short (after she subtracts the bus ride & all the weird things her hair is doing in the humidity), she manages to get to the mall in once piece: none of her organs are missing, her dress isn't ripped up, & no one had shoved her head down a toilet. day's pretty good so far (where's wood to knock on when she needed some?). 'cept the fact that she's probably a few minutes late, but--

... oh well.

she'll apologize to lyssa as soon as she can find him. ]

[ while his routine is the usual: washes his hands (they're usually really gross after spending hours drawing, after all), preens his hair a bit, says goodbye to his dad, kisses his mom on the cheek, then hops into his car and zoom off. so unlike his friend, he's there super early... if only for the fact that he had planned to bring along his sketchbook with him and people watch while waiting for amanda to show up, of course.

so this is why he's still looking quite comfortable on a bench outside of the mall's entrance on hour two of his alone time, humming to himself as he continues to do quick scribbles of people('s clothes) going to and from the mall. only stops once he sees a familiar poof of hair, smiling widely before raising a hand up to wave at her. ]


Amanda! Over here!

[ after cuddling catberta for ten minutes straight and gathering some of the things he needed, he's back in his car again, taking his time in driving to his next destination. the only time he really stops is to text his dad to tell him that he'll be out of the mansion for most of the night, saying he'll call him (and mom) when he's heading home.

he parks in the same spot as usual, a few blocks down from the apartment complex he's headed towards. but this time he's juggling not only his sketchbook (and the plastic bag with the items he'd picked up earlier when out with amanda) but also what seems to be two garment bags and his messenger bag slung over a shoulder, hoisting it all up to begin an awkward walk-waddle to the entrance.

it takes him a little longer than he had initially hoped, but he's still a minute early regardless, even if he's glancing at his already full arms with a frown on his face. after half that minute goes by he just shrugs and uses his foot to gently knock at the door three times. ]

sometime later in the evening...

[ is currently resting on his stomach under the sheets of the bed, chin cradled into the palm of one of his hands. he doesn't even bother getting dressed or move from his spot, comfortable in the little warm crease he pretty much nested into the moment he got the chance to. continues to flip through one of nick's older sketchbooks in silence, one he's seen several times before over the span of time he's spent with the older man. it doesn't deter him from concentrating on the sketches, however, taking his time in mulling over something while in deep thought... then eventually taps the current page he's on. nods to himself. ]

Okay, I've made my decision. This is still the best design you've made. I vote on you touching it up and pitching the idea to a company overseas.

[ the little interruption that disturbed his play time with nick earlier on wasn't a big deal to him, already setting aside plans to visit the older man the day after tomorrow. so he was cheerful regardless of the situation as he drove home, deciding that it's best to go get cleaned up before doing some more work on his final project.

after scrubbing and soaking he's standing in front of the mirror to inspect the damage done, deciding it's best to just cover it up with make-up. (summer was a pain in these cases, as he couldn't just throw on something to hide the bruises. it was much easier than being questioned or stared at, plus he didn't think it was very classy to go around looking like that.) so he spends a good thirty minutes using what he has on hand to mask the purple and blue on his neck, nodding in satisfaction once his skin looks good as new.

and then? well, instead of doing work he flops on his bed to visit catberta, telling her about his fun with amanda and the nice conversations he had with nick. he's in the middle of giving her treats when his phone vibrates, blinking over at it before pulling himself away from his lady. (no keep feeding me-!! her face said, her nubby paws flailing lazily.) beams down at the message, quickly texting back that he'd love to go get some ice cream with her. rolls off his bed afterward to grab his bag, only turning back to catberta once she meows and demands that he gives her the treats (they were too far away on the bed, dang it).

so he does just that and then gives her a kiss on her fuzzy fat head, saying he'll be back later that night. as usual he's in his car and out in the street in less than a minute, pushing the speed limit enough to arrive at amanda's house in less than ten minutes. trots into the apartment complex and goes up the elevator, arriving at her door to knock once, twice, then three times before stepping back to wait for her to answer. ]
