How did they go? You were supposed to let me know after they finished, but since I've gotten a total amount of zero emails or texts from you, I'm going to assume you've celebrated whichever results you think you got. Either way, I hope the exam went well - you're smart, despite all your efforts to conceal it underneath lushness and that...insufferable act -- anyway, what I'm trying to say is that, despite not getting feedback from you, I do believe in you, Howl.

In your abilities to ace the test!

If you could email me back, though, I have something important I want to discuss with you.

Technically, summer does not start until the solstice, but either way - happy summer to all of you! :)

lushness is it? sounds good.

[mrsnose]

What it sounds is illegal on so many levels, but you wouldn't listen to a word I had to say about it either way.

So?

[conesoldstober]

another two years and you won't have to deny it any longer, Sophie.

[mrsnose]

Howl, stop ruining the moment and let me be proud.

[conesoldstober]

fine, fine. Bask in your accomplishment.

[mrsnose]

Oh but it's much more yours than it is mine, isn't it? After all, you just proved me right about being smart. One more semestre and you'd have gotten 100.

[conesoldstober]

you coming to the dance tomorrow? i promise to remain entirely PG. maybe pg-13.

[mrsnose]

Won't you be too busy tending to your fifteen dates who don't know of each other's existence?

email;

[conesoldstober]

[mrsnose]

Necessary evil.

[conesoldstober]

yes, you've taught me the error of my ways indeed

email;

[mrsnose]

I know there is no chance that this won't go straight to your head, and be misinterpreted, but I will miss you.

email;

[conesoldstober]

are you going somewhere?

email;

[mrsnose]

Summer break? And, maybe - I'm not sure yet, but a professor of mine has dropped a hint at a teacher's assistant position...

email;

[conesoldstober]

congratulations

email; well this is bad. he looks attractive there

[mrsnose]

Thank you. :)

Although it's not certain yet, I mean, there are lot of other students in his class that could've easily gotten better results than me, so I shouldn't even be telling you this. I don't know why I am, actually, if anyone I should inform the staff instead, but...

Happy early summer to you too, Sophie.

Did the end of your semester go well?

text;

[mrsnose]

Yes! Very well, excellent, actually. And yours?

text;

[candothat]

Good, it was good. I have a certificate now that says I can speak English.

text;

[mrsnose]

Always good to have a paper saying you can do something we all know you can. Congratulations, Pavel.

[candothat]

Thank you. You are much too kind.

[conesoldstober]

don't be daft, sophie, of course youll get it

:I - WELCOME BACK??

[mrsnose]

Do you think so?

text;

[mrsnose]

Nothing to it. So what are your plans for the summer? Or better yet, do you plan to celebrate like everyone else, the end of this year?

text;

[candothat]

I have no plans, for either the summer or for celebrating. Do you?

text;

[mrsnose]

Honestly, no. I feel that we should, though.

text;

[candothat]

What are we supposed to be doing or planning to do?

text;

[mrsnose]

We have fun, of course. Or at least we ruddy well try.

[conesoldstober]

i wouldnt say so if i didnt

[mrsnose]

Thanks, Howl.

[Wait, what is she thinking of doing? Is it because he is flattering her - he probably does it to all his fifteen perfectly-aware-of-one-another girlfriends, too! - or is it because he sounds genuine. Reads genuinely? She has no idea, but - but if this is going to be the last semester she's his tutor, she's going to be nice.]
