Benny Boot’s comments from the Addermire Institute (Semi-Advanced) group.

That was not what Rene expected, at all.

He thought she just didnt want to be his friend, that he could of least comprehended, but love? That blew him away. Any anger that was there was gone completely and he sat there, speachless, before his hands slowly, extrememly, painfully slowly, signed out words. you...love..me? His heart was beating like a drumer on speed, it felt like it was going to exploded. This girl, Tori, the dryad he has had a crush on since year one, the girl he spent handfuls of nights dreaming of a situation like this, was acruwlly admitting she loved him. It couldnt be true. This was a dream, it had to be. He just watched her, his blue eyes watching her through glasses, almost a sense of relief but defiently joy began to creep along his face but not yet, he was still just, astonished someone, amyine could love him.

"I always am who Im suppose to be, girly, and never am what Im not." Simple statement, simple look on his face. It was plain and, well, simple to Angelo but he knew exactly what she meant and he also knew how right she was. "And you aint so bad of company yourself, Zinovia." He gave a nodd of recognition before removing the rubber bands that held his beard and hair into place leatting the mane free and his beard to lay out, brusbing a fee fingers through it to get it to rest comfortably.

But then why would they be angry at me? Why are you angry at me? Dint say you arent because if you wernt you would have at least responded to me texting you. Rene had crossed his arms after that and stared at her, still upset and hurt but trying to look like he was mad. All tori would have to do is call him on it and that facade would melt away pretty quickly. He was actually happy to see her again, but had to remain looking mad at her, so he furrowed his brow and frowned, taking a seat on the table of who evers office this was. You could of at least told me you needed to be by yourself but instead you blow me off. I felt really bad, I thought I did something to you...

Did I do something? Because.. Rene stopped what he was saying halfway and set his arms doen and nodded, and headed off a little further down the way, hoping she was following. He would make his way to a small room, no more than a desk and a chair, some office proably and opened it, making sure no one was around and stepped inisde. When or if she came in with him, the first thing Rene dis was crush her into a hug, needing that comfort again that he was missing from her. "I..am sorry I made you hide. I am bad person.." Then he woukd let go and slump a little, wanting to sign or speak but not knowing what to say.

I am fine. Just a little tired, didnt sleep last night, but am okay. He hadnt been sleeping very well for awhile, but he was usually good at hiding it. Recently, with whatever this strange falling out was with his friend, he found it harder and harder to keep himself in check. Creations and Stuff is not a class, Tori. Why wont you talk to me? Thank god that the conversation was silent, or peolpe might be watching and circling. Though, Rene was trying his best to stay a little perky, he was just having trouble understanding things that were part of his normal life and having your best friend avoid you completely wasnt normal.

"T.." He made a simple sound and began to walk over to where he had seen her but she duck away and Rene let out an audible sigh before calling out again. "Tori!" He found her and he was frowning, concern all over his face for his friend. Where have you been? I need to talk to you about something. Rene didnt look upset, just worried and maybe a bit more restless than usual. He had in reailty been up all night, wondering what he had done wrong that she didnt want to speak woth him or even see him. His glasses poorly hid some bag, and today he wore a ruffled up sweater amd some cargo shorts, the same sneakers on his feet that he always wore.

Angelo jhst shook his head and tried to come up with a good comeback to that. "A lunatic? Oh I simply love it. Suits me well, dont it maka?" A small laugh bubbled out and he then let out a deeepp sigh, letting his slumo just a tad, a sign of relaxation and comfort. Opinions of the djinn were usually quite positive, so he didnt worry but cared silently if at least was now comfortable around him. Well she had to be, he was swimming with her and she didnt try that song again. That dreadfully wonderful song. "I give up then, you must just like being alone then." He put his hands up in mock surrender. This back and forth with the siren was fun, Angelo thought, maybe I should try it again some time.

Rene was waited for someone. He wouldnt say who but it was Tori. It had been about a week or two since the incident on the rooftops and he was worried and a little upset. She was avoiding him completely. He had texted her once or twice, nothing. When he did see her she somehow found a way to duck away from him but not today. The boy wanted to know why Tori was avoiding him, and dammit, he was going to find out. So there he was, standing outside the door to one of her classes as they began exiting the room. His blue eyes flickered around, trying to find the dryads familar form.

Okay, I will believe you. But if you do wanna talk...well sign, I will be here. With Tori giving him a pinky promise, Rene felt decent dor now and began to climb his way off of the rooftops to the streets below and walked beside his friend and signed, not paying attention at all. My boom was really good, I hope they get a new shipment in soon of books. I think I have read every book in there. The big, broad grin went back to hus normal smile wjen he was around the dryad and continued to wall, still very confused about what just happened up there, and it showed a little in his face as he was wrinkling his nose. A telltale sign that he was trying to think.

Rene was shocked, didnt know what was happening, exceot he had just made his best friend cry. "What..is....." he paused for a moment to get word right as he embraced her on the rooftop, rubbing circles into her back. "..wr-ah-ng?" He looked up at her, axtually being a tad shorter than her and so he held to let her cry it out. The poor boy was just so confused and a little flustered by Tori and when she oulled away, he beamed a large grin at her, trying to let her know it was okay without having to sign but did anyway. okay, Tori, but you need to say what is on mind. Bad to keep it in head, like I do.

But.. Then Rene did something incredibly stupid in his brain, not wanting to ruin what just haooened amd seeing her hands move in just a way that made him feel awful, the boy decieded to speak. It came out bad, deaf toned and maybe even a little slurry. "I..am sorry." He then quickly shut up again and started to stand up, that smile was gone but that was just because he couldnt handle making Tori feel bad, at all. Rene had no idea what he even did but it made her want to leave to a class that wasnt for an hour. So he would at least walk with her and that is exactly what he said. Let me take you there then, I need to drop book of at library then I am going back to room. The smile returned ,though much more faintly and the red disappeared from his face.

Soon Rene finished the book, and closed it gently as to not hurt the old pages and that was when he realized he was on Tori and his head quickly shot up, his cheeks starting to turn red and he quickly signed. I am sorry, I didnt know I was even on you.. He gulped and then began to try and get himself to calm down. He scootched judt a bit away, feeling like they were nearly atop of one another. He would never say his feelings about the dryad, that he had a crush on her since she they had first met, and it only got worse the more they were together. How he loved her smile and the way she was so full of life, nothing compared to himself. He was a quiet book nerd who didnt do much and yet she still hung out with him a lot, it confused him but at the same time, made him feel like a million bucks, knowing someone at least enjoyed his company.

Rene actually loved all of Tori's freckles. It was his favorite part of her surpsingly, though it was for a silly reason to him. He wanted to count them all. But everytime he started in his mind she would say something that would make him look away or she would move and he would lose track. It was a fun little riddle that he would solve one of these days. The sun was slowly making its way towards the early afternoon time and Rene tugged at his shirt a little. It was a little too small for him and he knew it, but he loved the simple blue t-shirt, and its simple picture of a tree on it. He also wore blue jeans and sneakers, just enough to were he was covered but so he was comfortable. As he read in the comfortable silence, eithout realizing it, his head slowly leaned down and settled on Tori's shoulder. He didnt even think of what he was doing, his mind back into the book and oblivious of everything else.

No, well I do, but I am far ahead in class and teachers said I could take day off. Hey, there are perks to being a child prodigy turned genuis teenager. He returned the smirk before letting it fade back into the small smile he had once before and reading his book. His whole body felt really good when it was in the sun. He was almost like a lizard in that sense, he could stretch out and soak it all up. What the boy or anyone knew was he was a lizard of sorts, but that is for later on the line. For now, Rene ejoyed the time he had with Tori. Fair enough, just don't forget to do your homework. He then gave her a small nudge in the rib with his elbow, a teasing gesture and his eyes flickered back up to her face again.

Roman. Book says they were used to talk to gods. It is hard to read, but nice. He knew that most others struggled to understand, so when he did sign, the boy went slow so others could catch on. He patted a spot next to himself and sat the book in his lap so the both of them could look at it. Why are you out here? Dont you have more classes? Rene was curious, the girl hardly seemed to go to class, yet she had good enough grades to stay in the institute. His hazel eyes flickered up to her, that small smile still there.

When the familar grin and mess of her own hair of his friend Tori appeared, Rene shook a little in surprise, not realzing that was who it was. When the shock passed over him and the boy readjudted his glasses, a small smile crept along his face. This girl was the only one to ever make his grin and just her appearance cause it to happen. With a little wave, he began to sign back, setting the book down to do so then picking it up once he finished. A book on magic symbols. Its very good, see? He tilted it so that Tori could look at the oage he was on and watched her. She was very chill but also really excitable. It was so strange and Rene loved it.

Rene had wanted to get away. He had no classes, and the room he slept in was currently preoccupied with his player of a roomate and whatever fling they had. So to the city he went. He was currently on one of the many tile roofs, munching on some lunch he bought ina brown paper sack and reading a book, as Rene usually did. His hair was a little disheveled and he was in his oen little world, studying all the runic symbols, not even noticing another person arrving on the rooftops besides himself and the birds.

Would you? Im working on someth8ng but will respond shortly

Yeah that works.
I dig it, I dig it.
Maybe like the rooftops or something.
Like Rene got away from the institute for awhile to just think and was chilling out and Tori finds him
Baba bing bada boom stuff happens from there.

Sure, id be happy too. Where to and do you got an idea of what to do or just gonna wing it?
