I have a cell phone. [His dad's a Muggle, Tony. He takes the card, frowning faintly, looks at it, then hands it back a little uncomfortably. It's not as though gamzee's poor - his dad makes decent money - but that kind of ostentatious wealth is pretty weird to him.] Tony, I can't be all taking that ... anyway, it don't matter, we're at school, now.

[arrogantalloy]

[Tony doesn't even acknowledge the fact the Gamzee is offering him the card back and keeps looking at him.]

Sure you can. They're under contract with the company, so really if no one uses them we're losing money on the deal.

And yeah, we're back at school now. But we wont be at Christmas, or you know next summer.

[Tony rubs the back of his neck, looking down at his shoes for a split second.]

This isn't a charity thing. This is a helping a guy out thing.

[mo_cara]

[The younger boy chews on his bottom lip for a few moments, then tucks the card into his pocket. He's probably not going to use it, but if it makes Tony feel better to give it to him, well, who's he to disallow that?] Okay. Uh. Thanks.

[arrogantalloy]

[Sighs slightly.]

No need to make this awkward, fun park. This is just a thing between friends.

[mo_cara]

Sure, motherfucker. [Gamzee smiles then, a little more confidently at least.] You ever be getting yourself that broom?

[arrogantalloy]

Uh. No.

[Tony gives his nose a thoughtful scratch.]

I ended up sorta ordering parts and making it myself. Well technically it's classified as modifying, I want to get around school rules.

[mo_cara]

Damn, like a motherfuckin' broom mechanic! Is it pretty sweet?

[arrogantalloy]

Well, I'd say it is. You're just going to have to come to a Ravenclaw match to see how it really runs.

[He gives him a wide and self satisfied grin.]

[mo_cara]

I go to all the match sticks! [agreeably] I ain't always keeping best track of the scores, though. I'll come be seeing, though!

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah, I only pay attention to the scores when the game has finished to be honest. But it'll be fun looking for your almost gormless expression in the the crowd.

[He pats his arm, amicably.]
