Ask or Dare A Lot of People

"too broken"-

-back with Matom-

Mabel: *flinched a bit* Tom?.. *eyes get a bit glossy* *has a bit of an innocent look*

Tom: *sees Mabel's face* *gasps* *shakes his head* I-I gotta go-

Mabel: Tom, did I say something wrong?-

Tom: *tries to run off*

Mabel: *grabs Tom's wrist* Tom!.. what happened?-

Tom: look, I'm too broken to be loved, OkAy?! *cries a bit* *makeup runs a little* *doesn't look back* *hard swallows* Mabel... just let me go-

Mabel: no! Because I've seen some good in you. You got curious enough to ask why I'm trying so hard. That means you're getting interested. You're playful, a flirt and overall just a pretty chill guy-

Tom: no, I'm not...

Mabel: from what I've seen you are-

Tom: *makes his eyes go red* all I do is make people broken. *looks at Mabel over his shoulder*

Mabel: *only blinks*

Tom: *takes wrist from Mabel's hold* just ask Louisa or April... or even Donnie. They all have shit to complain about me to you. I'm just terrible and can't fix who I've become

Mabel: *sympathetically* Tom-

Tom: goodbye, Mabel *flies off using his fire*

Mabel: *looks at Tom fly off* *frowns*

-back at the lair-

Me: *trying to stay awake* *waiting for if Casey needs help walking* *yawns* *gets comfy* *tries to stay awake so I don't grab the blanket*

Casey: *slowly walking* *feeling exhausted* *softly groans*

Me: *fell asleep*

Raph: *walking towards the kitchen* *noticed Casey's slow pace* need help to the couch or somethin?

Casey: no, I got it...

Raph: *walks past Casey* *stopped near the end of the hallway* hey, Case..?

Casey: *looks up at Raph* yeah?

Raph: I've been wonderin... when we had to deal with "Mad Weeza".. was she really yelling at you? *looks at Casey over his shoulder* I wouldn't be mad.

Casey: *looks down sadly* yeah... I was basically trying to force myself onto Hazel thinking that if she was into me once that if I worked my charm - she'd realize she still liked me–

Raph: *sighs softly* okay, thanks for telling me... *keeps walking for the kitchen* *sees Louisa on the couch* *furrows eye-ridges* *picks Louisa up* *jumps up to the wooden thing* *sees a bed made* *sets Louisa down* *jumps down*

Casey: *yawns* *collapsed on the couch* *grabbed blanket* *conked out*

Raph: *heard both teens groaning* *smirks* *walks towards the dojo*

Garnet: *peeks her head around the corner* *holds out fist*

Raph & Garnet: *fistbump* *go their separate ways*

-the next day-

Steven: *heard from the guest room* WHAT?!

Dipper & Peedee: *loudly girly screams*

Me: *sits up scared* *thought I was on the couch* *goes to stand up on the floor* *falls* *yelps* *falls towards the couch*

Casey: *still asleep* *grunted*
