It wasn`t everyday he met someone who waved at him, so Kai could not help but smile slightly at the other male. Looking at the chair, Kai wondered for a moment. But he decided he had not real reason to not let the other sit down, so he gestured to the chair as he replied. “Sure – Don*t really mind” Kai shrug. 

“Thanks,” Austin responded as he carefully pulled the chair out and took a seat across from Kai. A couple of books were gently placed on the table, soon joined by his laptop so that he could jot down some notes. Once he was settled, he held a hand out for a friendly shake while the smile on his face warmed into a more cordial one. “And sorry for not introducing myself. I’m Austin Lebeau, it’s nice to meet you.”

“I appreciate your concern and all but— scratch that, you know what, I don’t. I’m not here for this whole routine. I didn’t text you back and now I’m a fake ghosting bitch? You haven’t seen me be a bitch.” Poppy wasn’t here for it, she was too damn tired to play niceties with a self proclaimed ‘nice guy’ who was too butt hurt to take a hint. “And trust me, you don’t wanna. Now get out of my way before I make you.” Poppy wasn’t one often to threaten other people, but she also didn’t take threats to herself lying down. And any man (or person, she supposes, but it’s usually men) who was trying to force her somewhere she didn’t wanna be? Fucking threat. 

Austin quietly approached the two, a glare on his face as he stared down the asshole in front of Poppy. While he had only caught bits and pieces of the conversation, he’d heard enough to be reminded of classic douchebag behavior. This dude was already giving him a headache with his mental gymnastics and Austin was a mere bystander. He crossed his arms over his chest as he arched an eyebrow at the other male, the words ‘Your move’ hung unspoken in the air. He politely cleared his throat then questioned, “Well? You heard her, you know your options.”

theo flinched as his brother put his arm around him. “ totally up for what you just said.” theo replied softly but in pain. he knew he was the older brother that needed to look like he had his shit together but this time he did really need to take care of himself. because his back wasn’t looking so good. “i might have something on my back.” 

an apologetic look swiftly appeared on austin’s face and he could have sworn that he noticed a flinch. “sorry,” he quietly apologized as his arm dropped, not wanting to risk causing any more pain. his eyes briefly widened upon hearing the mention that theo might have an injury on his back. “yeah, let’s get the hell out of here,” he agreed as he carefully moved in the hopes of leading the way out. austin held a hand out to his brother so that they hopefully wouldn’t lose each other in the crowds again.

【O】【P】【E】【N】 —– @lkustart Despite what others might think, Kai was quite a bookworm. His so often chaotic mind got some peace and quiet when he read. Plus, just like his father he knew that knowlage is power. So it was not uncommon to find the young sorcerer in the library. When Malachai noticed someone apptoche he looked up, waiting for them to either speak or leave him be.

“ yeah it always does.” he said trying to calm himself down from what he’s seeing on his brother. “ yeah–” he lied. he could feel his back burning from something he wasn’t sure what it was because he didn’t get the change to check it out. “ feels like we’re back to xavier’s.” theo said angry. 

austin couldn’t help but arch an eyebrow slightly at theo’s response, swiftly replaced by a look of concern. he nodded slightly in agreement when xavier’s was mentioned and remarked with another weak laugh, “you can say that again.” he held his uninjured arm out for a side hug as he questioned, “now, how about heading to the infirmary? just to at least get a quick once over and get on the path to proper healing?”

theo knew that if he sees his little brother harmed, he might lose. he saw many students injured, also him with a burn in his back. all that and if he’ll get angry it’s going to be on himself for not being there for his brother. “austin!” he said as he finally found him. “shit–” he said as one of his hands grabbed his shoulder. theo tried to keep his anger to himself, but he was furious. “ are you in pain?” he asked. “ let’s take you to the nurse–” 

“it looks way worse than it feels,” austin manages a weak laugh as he reassures his brother. “i’ll be alright,” he continues, but nods at the mention of going to the nurse. that feels like the best place to start, a great first step in dealing with the aftermath of whatever the hell just happened. but all of his rapidly multiplying thoughts on the matter can wait until later, once people are hopefully on the mend. he fixes theo with a look full of concern while he gently questions, “how about you? are you alright?”

Closed starter for @pcltergeistx​

“Crowds aren’t really my thing.” He said to Austin as they sat at a table near the back. He wondered why he even came to this in the first place. But he can just hear in his head what his parents would tell him for not even attempting to go in the first place. “Do you think they will let us dip early back to dorm or even notice of we left?”

closed: when the light went back up, theo was in shock he couldn’t handle that bullshit. he walked over everyone, he didn’t care where he was going or if people were calling out his name.  the only thing he wanted to see is his brother. “austin!” he watched so many students sitting on the floor in pain because of injuries. “i swear to god–” he said to himself. he hoped to god that nothing happened to his brother. @pcltergeistx​

austin held his uninjured arm in front of his face in the hopes of giving his eyes time to readjust. the injury on his left arm - courtesy of a sentinel - continued to demand his attention yet theo’s voice made him glance up. “theo?” he answered from where he sat against the wall and let himself return to being visible as he pushed himself up off the floor. austin glanced around as he moved in the direction of his brother’s voice while adrenaline returned to grant him a second wind of energy.

open: theo was already next to the punsch on his second glass with alcohol he brought for himself because he wanted to enjoy himself as much as he could. finishing up his glass and then he refiled his third, looking to the other side another person wanted to take a glass, he nodded and smiled “– you’d like some?” he said holding the service spoon. @lkustart

“yes, please,” austin replied as he picked up a glass. a slight smirk appeared on his face while he quipped, “i’m thirsty after talking to so many people.” austin could absolutely appreciate the hard work that went into making great parties like homecoming happen, but in classic introvert fashion he did have a tendency to either be a wallflower or stick with a select few people throughout. “how about you?” he started as his attention returned to his brother and the punch bowl. “are you having fun?”
