Tatsuya, who had been following Jaques as the class all lived in their own building, knelt down and picked the papers up before he handed them back to Jaques. “ I’m sorry, I need to go call my father.” He apologised as he went outside. He could smell smoke, but he couldn’t see anyone.
He answered the phone.
“ h-hello Father.” He said quietly.
“ You we’re tied for first place in the aptitude test?!”
“ yes father.”
“ you’re pathetic tatsuya.”
Tatsuya was shaking. He hadn’t noticed Felix nearby, smoking. -
Felix looked at Tatsuya curiously, his first instinct to leave but his curiousity of the once so serious kid now shaking in his boots took over. He used his mind powers to hear the other end of the conversation, then went a bit further into Tat’s memories. He had an abusive father. So his father stuck the stick up his ass. He got out of Tatsuya’s head and sighed as he leaned against the wall. “Wonderful location for Privacy huh?” He asked, deciding the hell with it.
-
Jacques thanked Tatsuya, before he had left. Tatsuya said he needed to speak to his father, which left Jacques curious but he didn't pry. Jacques had reached the dorm room by now and he began to claim it as his own. Of course it was also Tatsuya's and Felix's, but first come first serve.
-
( Ok so how the dorm rooms work, they work in groups of threes, the first one has the bathroom, the middle one has a window seat, and the third one offers nothing. )
The verbal abuse continued for maybe ten minutes? His father hung up. Tatsuya was about to cry, he didn’t want to be pulled out of the school. He heard Felix and he panicked, lashing out with his Earth in fear, -
Felix read the panic in Tat's mind, using his speed to dodge. "Uh... Sorry, my bad..." He muttered, quickly turning to leave.
-
Jacques went into every part of the dorm, fleshing out which rooms would offer better. It was a hard choice between the window seat and the bathroom but he settled on bathroom. Jacques began to unpack, wondering where his roommates were and if he could possibly fix whatever was left of Felix and his' relationship.
-
Tatsuya quickly escaped the the dorms...he took the third and smallest room. Mainly for strategic reasons. If there was an emergency he could escape via the window, but this left him protected against intruders for at least a few minutes, as to get to this room you had to go through at least one other room.
Tatsuya lay on his bed, shaking with sobs. Usually he could contain himself, but it was a higher stress situation than usual. He didn’t want to be forced to leave.
But now Felix knew about his secret. He knew how pathetic he was, and Tatsuya was sure he’d tell everyone. -
Felix sighed as he dropped the cigarette to the ground and snuffed it out into the gravel with the heel of his boot. He then ran off in a random direction, seeking to blow off some steam.

"Hey roomie!" Jacques called out to Tatsuya upon hearing his presence. Jacques began to knock on his door, but it simply opened, as it had not been closed all the way. He frowned in concern when he saw Tatsuya on the bed, either shaking with tears or shaking with laughter. More likely than not it was the former. "You okay, Tats?" Jacques asked, beginning to walk towards him slowly.
-
Tatsuya glanced up at him, his whole body froze, before it began to shake. Now someone else had seen him for the pathetic loser he truly was.

(Skip my turn)

"Are you okay?" Jacques repeated. This was probably a personal moment for Tatsuya, maybe he shouldn't intrude.. Jacques's worry overrode the formalities, though. "It's okay to cry, y'know.." Jacques said, trying to get Tatsuya to open up to him, in any way. "You can trust me."
-
Tatsuya blinked back his tears. “ ....I’m not-I’m not her to make friends.” He said his voice shaking like crazy ... but even so he clutched Jaques shirt. He needed this,
-
Felix returned to the room, rubbing his face in stress as he paced back and forth. It wasn’t time to stay in their dorms yet, right? Maybe he could avoid them a bit longer?
-
"Says who?" Jacques asked him, beginning to rub Tatsuya's back soothingly. "You can study, and train, and work hard until you're at the very top, Tatsuya. But once you get there, it can be pretty lonely if you haven't found some people to be by your side, to have your back."
