So then what are everyones plans for the summer? I know that personally i will be taking at least a few weeks off from everything if at all possible after those bloody owls.
Naturally ill start up the summer curriculum homework afterward but golly do i need a break.
Maybe ill go camping. That sounds like a splendid idea. Would anyone like to join me?

--ah, mister Rogers, I think this textbook is yours.

[[ooc; Jake is packing his things in his trunk to leave. Anybody that wants to bother him in his room is also welcome, though the not-network part of this post is directed at Steve.]]

[Steve looks over at Jake and the textbook for a second before walking over]

Sure is, thanks. [takes it back with a smile] You do know you can call me Steve right?

[shitknickers]

Ah, right, yes, I'm sure you've told me that before. We just don't see each other often so I like to be respectable.

[He hands off the textbook.] Looking forward to summer vacation then, chap?

[starspangledavenger]

You get to see me drool on my pillow often enough, I think it's fine to be on a first name basis. [chuckles]

Somewhat, probably be working for most of it. Mostly just glad O.W.L.s are over. How 'bout yourself?

[shitknickers]

Fair enough.

Golly, am I ever. I feel like I only passed by the skin of my teeth.

[Steve's familiar lays her huge fluffy cat girth all over his clothes he's got packed, so he goes over to move her before the contamination spreads]

Yeah, I know the feeling, though I'm sure we both did better than it feels like.

I swear I tagged this yesterday.

[Another thing they can bond over-- enormous cat familiars. Neytiri, for what it's worth, is perched primly at the foot of Jake's bed, watching down her nose with her head tilted as the boys pack up.]

I certainly hope so. As long as I passed I'll be happy, but I'd love to have actually made decent marks.

It's all good!

[Liberty Bell merps and kneads the air as Steve moves her, just glad to get some attention]

Yeah, I need great marks on some of them to keep on the track I want, but I have a good feeling about most of them. So, here's hoping. [gives him a grin before setting the textbook down with his others to be organized]

[shitknickers]

[Liberty Bell. Steve please. Jake probably just calls her Bell.]

[He laughs lightly.] I'm most worried about Ancient Runes. I got a good amount of last minute help from some friends and Professor Cross, but bluhhh. I've never been any good at them.

[starspangledavenger]

[Shhh he named her when he was six. Yes, probably, even Steve mostly just calls her Bell too]

Oh, Ancient Ruins, urgh, I did my best but I'm sure I didn't do that great on them either. Drawing a ruin, no problem, anything else and I'm lost.

[shitknickers]

[Steve pls.]

You and me both, chap. I've never fancied myself the multilingual type.

[starspangledavenger]

[shhh]

I'm interested in other languages, but there's something that's not sinking in about Ancient Ruins. Not sure what.

[shitknickers]

A trait we share. [A small grin.] Have any plans for the summer, then?

[starspangledavenger]

I think Tony is doing a movie marathon at some point? Thor wants me to come visit him during the summer. Otherwise, helping my godmother out, tend some gardens and take care of the Kneazels. How about yourself?

[shitknickers]

This Tony of yours has good taste. I'll likely be spirited away to the Strider residence at some juncture, and I do figure that I ought to do something nice for my lady given this is our first summer together. I haven't thought much of the details out, though I'd rather fancy a camping trip. Naturally, you're invited.
