After Sollux graduated from high school, it was off to college. Instead of paying largely for dorms, he and Mituna decided to move into a nice apartment bike distance away from campus. The first year went along smoothly, they had only quarreled a few times all ending in soft touches smooth kisses. By winter, Mituna had managed to get his license (It took so long because driving tests made him nervous.) and happily drove Sollux place to place, as long as he got a kiss before Sollux jumped out of the car. Simon would call every weekend to make sure things were doing fine and invite them over for dinner despite the five hour trip. It was new years eve, when Sollux gave up his most intimate love to Mituna.

But these days, Sollux has become more of a lover to his computer than he has Mituna. It's fair to say that Sollux hates Latula Pyrope. She makes him absolutely livid. Sollux's freshman year of college was perfectly fine. He dare say even the best year of his life, but the summer was when everything tilted. An accident. It was no ones fault really, but Sollux enjoys adding on to his hate for Latula, and blames her. They were out skateboarding, and Mituna had abandoned his helmet. He jumped up to grind, and slipped. Falling backwards flipping off the pole, the back of his head colliding hard with the rough cement. 

The Doctors say it could be worse, but Sollux disagrees. Mituna didn't recondnize him at first, clinging to Simon's arm in the hospital. after being re-introduced he hugged Sollux with an unfamiliar goofy smile. Despite the fact he knew the charming smile that took Sollux out to dinners in suits would no longer return, he thought it was rather cute. He clung to him. Mituna's lisp became just a bit more prominent, and it took him longer to process what was going on. His words came out a garbled mess most of the time if he didn't stop and try to pronounce clearly. It took a lot of effort though, so he let everyone just try and figure out what he was trying to say.

Other than that Mituna could think perfectly fine. He was a normal person just like everyone else, even if he was a bit more childish than before. Sometimes his impulses would just take control of him and he would do things he never meant to do. It took a while, but Sollux and Mituna both got used to the fact he needed help doing a lot of things. What Sollux would never get used to, was the fact Mituna didn't remember they were in love. Often claiming, "Ith weirrd! why would I date my brofer?"

Thats when Latula moved in, claiming her prize. She often waved Mituna around like a trophy in front of Sollux. Constantly kissing him, telling him how much she loved him, and giving Sollux little glances from the side, often batting her eyelashes. It was the night before his sophmore year of college started, that Sollux heard the breathy sighs of Mituna, and the loud pornagraphic moans of Latula rubbing it in his face from the next room, did Sollux truly want to fall apart. It just wasn't fair.
