Yikes.

[She purses her lips together, raising a hand to twist the bloodpop around in her mouth thoughtfully.]

Glad I quit while I was ahead. Though...I don't think he'll come looking for me anytime soon. Not unless he can walk with his baby makers damaged three times.

[marshall_lee]

Yeeeeah.
[He takes off the fedora and runs a hand through his already messy hair before replacing it on his head and laughs at the baby maker comment.]

That's awesome you did that. Sounds like he deserved it that's for sure. And besides, even if he was looking for you he couldn't get into Hogwarts.
Oh yeah, that reminds me..do you have a safe place to stay during holidays and stuff?

[nomorals]

Well, I'm staying between Wendy and the guys in the band for a while. Maxim offered to let me live with him and his family in Mechanicsburg, but I'm not sure if that's still up. [She gives a small sigh.] I'm not even thinking about going home.

[marshall_lee]

Well, I have a small place in The Fens. It's actually a basement level place underneath my familys crypt. I know, it's cliche as hell but it works out really well. I'm not there a lot since I like to travel around and play music but...you're welcome to stay there anytime. I could have a key made for you.
[At the mention of not going home his face falls a little and he sighs.]
...I never went home afterwards. I felt really bad just up and vanishing and putting my Mom through that but..I didn't want her to see me like this.

[Marceline bites her bottom lip before drawing her legs up, tucking them under herself so her heels are rested against the banister, crossing her arms over her knees.]

Thanks. Dad probably wouldn't care, and my mum's been dead since I was a kid, so there's no one to really worry back home. Dad hasn't even tried to contact me all summer, so it's none of his business if I never go back.

[marshall_lee]

[He hesitates a minute before moving around the banister and sitting beside her. Sure, they just met but she definitely needed someone to lean on. Figuritvely and literally.]

Ahh, so you haven't told him yet huh? That's always one of the harder parts.
If you need back up I'll help explain stuff to people if you want.

[nomorals]

[And they say puberty is the hardest stage of a teenager's life. They've obviously never met a newborn vampire.]

It's not that I don't want to tell him. [She lets out a small huff that blows some hair from her eyes.] I'm still annoyed about something he did when I was younger. We're not exactly on good speaking terms.

[marshall_lee]

[Twice the turmoil and three times the suck.]

Ahhh I gotcha. [He's not going to pry. Merlin knows she has enough things going on right now.]

Well, I'm sure you'll tell him when you're ready.

[nomorals]

[She shrugs before giving him a small smile.]

Anyway, I don't want to bore you with my daddy issues. How'd you like the gig the other Friday?

[marshall_lee]

I'm not bored. If you gotta vent, go for it. But hey, I thought the gig was awesome! You guys are really good..I think you have a unique sound.
