[26] - [Video]

[Barron: hit by the honesty bomb. He's sitting on his bed, writing in his diary journal.]

So, guys. I basically disappeared off the barge. [He pauses to scribble something out in the journal.] Which isn't that abnormal, but it was weird. I spent a while at home not remembering being here at all. My brother turned out to be a total asshole who was willing to turn us over to the Feds, so he got taken out by my other brother. Who then got all into my business and made the hot high school girl I was really into break up with me.

[Barron sighs, making a face.] It's not like I'm that much older than her, but whatever. It's a little ridiculous. I mean, even my Mom is getting together with a guy. Who's totally the head of a mob family, but what are you gonna do? [Barron shrugs.] It's not like the connections would do us any harm.

[He stops scribbling in his journal.] Then I was back here, remembering being here from before and the new stuff that I'd done at home. I guess I asked the Admiral if I could go home the right amount of times or something. [A pause.] It was better than being here, even with all the drama going down.

It is important. Going home really put that in focus. [More or less. As soon as Barron had gotten on the barge, he'd been quite distracted from everything that had happened.]

It's the Admiral, man. The Admiral does it because he's into it. It's the only logical conclusion. [Barron looks to the ceiling.] We kissed! Admiral, are you happy?

[The ceiling doesn't reply, so Barron looks back to Prefect.] Home, yeah. I guess we should talk about that.

[buywithme]

Yeah, I guess it must have done. [Prefect paused, very briefly, before deciding to set aside talk of their kissing, and go straight to talking about Barron's home.] All right, Comrade... If you could control the world, and everything in it, what would you want things to be like back at home right now? What would everyone else be doing, and what would you be doing?

[Having picked up the last of the bottles on the floor, Barron decided that it was high time to find some new ones. This conversation had gotten really serious really fast.]

Well, that's not gonna happen. So I don't know how much good talking about it would do. [Barron paused, for drama.] I suppose that it's the kind of thing I might talk about after a drink though.

[It's serious Warden business or thinking about kissing. Prefect chooses serious Warden business.]

Perhaps you could tell me over breakfast? [He suggests, as an alternative] And we'll get a drink a little bit later, so that neither of us are sick?

[sharpememory]

[Barron considers breakfast. Since it's a precursor to drinking, he's fairly okay with it.]

Alright. You sir, have got yourself a deal. [He pauses, looking down at himself.] We're presentable enough for the dining hall, aren't we?

[buywithme]

[Prefect shoots Barron a grand and happy smile!]

I think we are! Shall we go? [He shifts up to his feet, casts an eye around briefly before deciding that he can not be bothered trying to track down his ever escaping shoes, and goes to hold open the door for Barron.]

[sharpememory]

[Barron looks at Prefect's bare feet and then his own. Does he care? Nope. It's still too early in the morning and he's still too hung over.]

Let's go. [Barron cruises out the door, not even bothering to smooth down his hair.] I need coffee and some form of meat.

[Time to start reassuring himself of his masculinity!]
