[like you. i meant like you.

He smiles at Matt though, and like the brat he is he raises his own hand to rub Matt's hair back.]

But you can't go replacing me with other hero hostages either.

[pheromonecoffee]

[Wow ken wow only matt gets big bro gestures like that.]

It was temporary. You were hurt.

[orangehoodie]

But you can't replace me anymore because I won't get hurt.

[pheromonecoffee]

I promise. You can't be my nemesis because I promised Sasha and she will probably break up with me... but no other hostages.

[orangehoodie]

[He blinks]

Congratulations.

[On the girl, if she's going to break up with you that means you got together right.]

[pheromonecoffee]

[He looks a little embarrassed.]

I. uh. visited her first.

It was easier.

[orangehoodie]

I'm glad you're talking to her again.

[pheromonecoffee]

I'm glad I'm talking to you again.

[orangehoodie]

You don't have any other options. It was either you talk to me now, or I bothered you until you eventually talked to me again.

[pheromonecoffee]

Where did you get that stubbornness from, anyway?

[orangehoodie]

I was born with it.

[pheromonecoffee]

Get that way about your grades.

[orangehoodie]

I-I got into honors classes for next year! I'm doing fine, my grades are fine!

[pheromonecoffee]

Honors classes, huh? [Matt smiles widely.] Congrats.

[orangehoodie]

Y-yeah. [Oh he's smiling. Ken turns a little red and nods.] I had to test into them because my GPA during middle school was pretty low. My homeroom teacher told me not to slack off in high school.

[pheromonecoffee]

I'm going to watch your grades. I want people coming after you with full scholarships in senior year.

[orangehoodie]

I'm going to try. I mean-- My dad says not to worry about tuition when choosing school, but I know the custody agreements with his other kids is that he has to help pay for them, too. So I've gotta. [He shrugs.] Besides, I finally got my grades up. I'm gonna keep them up.

[pheromonecoffee]

And if you need any help, you know right where I am.

[orangehoodie]

I do. I'm counting on you to look over my finals essays.

[pheromonecoffee]

I'll make sure they get As.

[orangehoodie]

[He's smiling a tiny smile.]

The only thing I won't do is make a speech at graduation. I don't want that spotlight.

[pheromonecoffee]

No one's going to make you do something like that. You'll do just fine. [Matt likes his tiny smiles.]

[orangehoodie]

... Thanks.

[And he steps in for another quick hug.]

Thanks for coming over, too.

[pheromonecoffee]

Thanks for not being mad. [He will give Ken the hug he desires.]

[orangehoodie]

I'm a patient person. You'd have to try harder to make me angry.
