Cheers.

I know you two have capital-I Issues with Manuel, and that's fine. I can understand that. I don't like him very much myself, most of the time.

But if you could possibly find it in your hearts to avoid him, instead of driving him further and further down into the self-destructive and near-suicidal state he's digging himself into, I would very much appreciate it. You keep telling him to stay away from you - how about returning the favour before he starves himself to death? I don't fancy spending another night helping Marie clean up his room and wash his own vomit off of him just because you two can't manage to refrain from baiting him.

I know he hurt you both, directly and indirectly. I know he's a scary little shit who treats people like garbage.

This does not give EITHER of you an excuse. He wasn't born this big of a fuck-up, you know. He has his trauma, just like you two have yours, and if you can't treat him with an ounce of decency, even if that means never speaking or typing to him, then you need to get off your damned high-horses before somebody kicks you off of them.

You are both my friends, so I say this with the utmost respect and patience: Grow up, stopbeing such fucking hypocrites, and take the high road, or next time, my e-mail is going to Xavier and Frost. I am NOT doing this again.

Killing my classmates is bad, right?

I'm going to be stuck in Manny's room tonight, love. He's practically killing himself up here, so I'm on suicide watch 'til Marie gets back. He's.. Christ, he isn't in good shape at all. I know he's a prick, but it's my dad's fault, you know? I need to be here for him.

Fuck.

I'm gonna need you tomorrow, Sarah. Can we do something? Just hide in the basement or anything?

So I've been told. I tried it once, and they put me under house arrest. Personally, if you think it'll make you feel better, I'll help you hide the bodies.

...right. I'm sure that's not the answer you were looking for. Ah well.

Yes. Anything you want to do tomorrow, you tell me and we'll do it. We can go out, or hide down here and lock the door. Your pick.

It's actually a rather comforting answer, albeit not the one I was expecting.. you're the best, on so very many levels.

Hiding from the world tomorrow sounds good. Basement. As many locks as you've got. Maybe hide under a blanket. I don't feel so good.

I try.

You're not the only one up there, right? Please tell me you're not trying to do this alone.

-yours.

You succeed admirably.

Moira just got here, and Marie should be back soon. When she gets back, I think I'll try and beg off for a shower and sleep.. is it okay with you if I let myself in, if they let me go?

Of course it is. Always. (Chances are, I'll still be awake anyway, but this applies to any time you want to let yourself in, too.)

-yours.

Thank you. I love you.
