Last night mid way through the party, Willie and Marcus had snuck off together which was strange, because they acted like enemies.
You passed him in the hallway, he looked stressed and still had the uncleaned cuts from him and Chico's fight on his face.
You all went to class, you were pretty zoned out for the most of it, thinking about your family again, and how you were gonna make it your life's mission to kill the men that did it the exact way you killed those perverts at the shelter.
When class ended, you met with Marcus in the hall, he looked distressed and was constantly spaced out as you walked.
"you okay?" you ask.
"uh yeah, just need weed."
you go out to the outdoor area and find billy and Petra arguing over something or another.
"what you smoking?" Marcus asks Petra.
she held up her cigarette and Marcus nodded his head, realising it wasn't anything stronger.
you sat down and billy put his arm around you in a friendly way, then just grinned.
"we all like a wee nip of pollen," Lex says doing up his belt after peeing into a small can, "but first thing in the morning? trés gauche."
"Marcus just likes drugs, Lex. There's nothing wrong with that!" Billy leans to the side, with his arm still over your shoulder.

POISON LAB
Mr Denke was talking about some sort of poison, founded and tested by the government.
"ICI expected VX pesticide would increase agricultural capacity. instead, they discovered one of the deadliest poisons on the planet. Guess what the government did with this miracle innovation."
"gee Mr denke, they didn't use it on people did they?" billy gasps sarcastically.
"boy howdy, did they," the professor nodded, "but what's really exciting is what they have planned. Uncle Sam is stockpiling this stuff, so are the soviets...why."
"because the soviets are desperate to please and prove better," you mock with a Russian accent.
a random kid near behind you, started spinning his pen and looked toward your row of people, then comes out with some joke about Marcus wanting to kill Ronald Raegan.
"Si no cierras la boca, chico blanco, literalmente te abriré la laringe con mis propias manos!"
he looks at you confused and sort of scared, then closes his mouth, aware that whatever you'd said was most definitely a threat.
