First beat

[toocoolforthis]

Well, I can't say I've ever been this late to school before.
Unfortunately, I can't claim to be awesome enough to have played hooky for half a year.
Maybe next year.
In the meantime, I'm back.
I'm sure you're all either completely ecstatic or completely disgusted, so please, contain your looks of horror and/or joy.
A simple "Sup, Dirk" will suffice.

[Jake stop showing off before he gets an anime nosebleed.]

What's there to tell? I was studying. It just wasn't here.

[Swoon.]

Oh come off it. Surely something interesting happened? [He drops his arms from their stance and pointedly swings one around Dirk's shoulders.]

[The charm of Jake English is too strong for him to escape that arm. It is simply a law of the universe.]

If something interesting had happened I'm sure Bro would have made me come back to the castle sooner.

Well good lord then why did you stay away so long? That's complete horseshit. [He squeezes Dirk's shoulders a bit.] But no matter! That only means that we'll have to make up for lost time.

Because I wanted to see this thing through to the end, why the hell else would I? I don't give up once I've started.

[shitknickers]

You never have. [A sideways grin.]
