I'm saying there are a lot of ~~annoying~~ insistent people here who will want you to go. Unless that tux thing is for real.

You might also be a pushover, though. Still trying to figure that one out.

It can't be real.

I have an incredible ability to say no to the people I care about.

I can't tell with some of the people here, but also I'm pretty sure real proms don't have a tux requirement.

If you say so.

I wouldn't know, that wasn't a thing in Wales when I was at school. We had a formal, but everyone just ended up wankered, arse up in the sheepfold.

Fuck off. No one needs me there anyway, I support it all but slow dancing to Cyndi Lauper isn't really my thing. Or the macarena, whatever you Americans get up to at these things.

Bracken and I just crashed the after prom bonfire and it wasn't too different from what you're describing.

No shit no one needs you there, but there's going to be a collection of folks who want you there. Also, what decade do you think this thing is in?

That does not shock me to hear that, at all.

So when you were talking about the insistent people here, you were talking about yourself. I don't know, as far as the UK is concerned, America is frozen in the 80s. Are you telling me this isn't just going to be a shot for shot remake of Pretty in Pink?

Unsurprisingly there were no tuxes at that bonfire.

I'm sure Bracken'll say something, and we both know how annoying he is. And this is a Canadian prom. [...] Lord, I can't believe they're calling this a prom.

No? Not even as kindling?

Why would you think that? And yeah, there'll be photographers at this. You figured out your pose yet? Cinema has informed me that the hug from behind is a classic.

Couldn't get into the rich kid bonfire, unfortunately - too many bouncers.

Because he'll want to go and he seems to like being around you, from how often he smells like you.

Can't wait to drag Keda past any photo stations and hide from any roaming photographers.

[...] Real subtle.

Just stating a fact. You could just be hanging out all the time for all I know.

Uh huh, just buddies being pals. I'm fucking your brother.

I was just being nice with the whole hanging out thing - I'm aware.

Well now that it's hanging out there then. We good?

Why wouldn't we be? I don't care what you get up to as long as you're not being horrible to him.

Some siblings get protective, just giving you space for it so we can move on to how goofy you'll look at prom. [...] I'm not, for the record. Horrible to him ~~I wouldn~~. Or I hope not, anyway.

That whole smell thing really fucking sucks, just want to put that out there.

[...] Only protective if I think I need to be, and I don't think I need to be. ~~I will kick your ass if~~ ~~Don't tell Bracken I said~~

You get used to no privacy real quick back home.

Okay ~~that's~~. So prom, you looking goofy.

I'm not exactly a shy person, I just wish it wasn't so one sided.

What makes you think I'm going to look goofy?

Good thing you're not shy or you'd be having an extra hard time. And yeah, I imagine that's kind of annoying, but we don't gossip about it too much.

Because I have eyes. And something tells me Keda will enjoy making you suffer just a touch. Handsomely suffer.

Oh great.

First, I look good in things. Second, she would, but luckily I can dress myself.

You're stuck with a bunch of wolves, this is your new lot in life.

Well I'll have photographic evidence, so I guess we'll see.

It's not a bad lot. You're stuck with me too.

There won't be any pictures, so you'll never know if you don't come.

Yeah, luckily I don't mind you too much.

There will be a back hug photo, you know there will be.

Wow. I don't mind you so much either.

Keda will absolutely try to talk me into one just to be a shit, and I will absolutely say no.

Glad we're on the same page.
