[color=skyblue]Marcus stepped into the academy housing rubbing sleep out of his eyes, which along with his messed up hair told anyone and everyone that he had been asleep for most of the train ride.
He wasn't sure why he was so tired lately, sure he was staying up late sometimes but that was nothing new. He wasn't sure when it had started but somewhere between the time with Rey at the Garden and revealing his relation to Harvey to one of the breeding professor's student Marcus found sleep just didn't come as easy.It seemed even when he slept he just woke up tired.
After lunch he had found himself wandering again, looking for the ladyba he had seen that morning but finding a swablu fletching and it's evolved parent instead. His brother had been there, around an area where Marcus recalled Fletling had nested once. The boy had found himself trying once more to start conversation with his estranged half-sibling.
Harvey hadn't really seen happy to see him but the two had started a somewhat halting conversation and Marcus had been more than happy to explain fletchling's migratory pattern. (he found out Harvey had been trying to catch one)
No sooner had he started however and his gear had beeped with the announcement that they would be going to the lamia district for a field trip.
He found himself maybe not as excited about it due to the fact that it was a break in routine, not to mention it had kinda stopped the budding conversation between him and Harvey.
He had packed a small bag with enough clothes for his stay, as well a toiletries and a blanket. He had only hesitated for a minute before packing his rod and tackle box. He had also downloaded a few songs into his phone as well as documentaries which he would probably end up watching (he wasn't feeling very social at the moment)
He had met up with Harvey at the station by sheer coincidence and had only attempted to make small talk before he found himself burying his face on Valiant's fur and falling asleep.
[b]"Now what?"[/b], he asked the breeding teacher, Marcus had only woken up recently. He had no idea of what was happening or any announcements.[/color]
[color=dimgrey][b]"Now you look for a room mate, two actually"[/b][/color]
[color=skyblue][b]"Sweet! I haven't seen Tera in a while"[/b][/color]
[color=dimgrey][b]"...you can't room with Tera, she's a girl"[/b][/color]
[color=skyblue]Marcus blinked up bleary looking eyes at his brother as his sleep-ridden(and sleep deprived ) brain tried to process what was just said.
[b]"Well yeah so what?"[/b]
Maybe it was because he spent time watching both his mother and his uncle do the same work. Maybe it was because he was friends with some flamboyant boys back home (who where just as bad as the girliest girl), or because one of his closest cousin was a girl but Marcus had never understood why everyone got so weird around guys and girls hanging out together, doing things together, having similar interests. As if it was such a rarity, as if they were really all that different.
They were just the same really. He honestly couldn't say he felt differently around Tera as he did around Rey, or around Eve as he felt around Eli. They were all his friends as far as he was concerned and how he treated them had more to do with their individual traits more than anything (he knew Rey and Tera the longest so he'd probably open up more to them..Rey was a bit more sensitive (an Faye seemed to be too, though in a different way) where as both Eli and Tera seemed to not need him to watch himself as much around them)
He was fishing partners and had played basketball with both guys and girls back home and found no difference in that either, and he had had sleepover with friends of both genders (and one that seemed to be neither ) and hadn't found any difference. He found himself slightly bothered by the fact that he wouldn't be able to hang out with his friends as much for such a stupid reason.
[b]"What, don't tell me, they have cooties?Girls are just people Harv, I've shared a room with 'em before loads of times"[/b]
The nickname slipped off without him wanting to, a byproduct of his tiredness, just like the informal speech.
He settled the matter, he would invite Tera to hang out and go camping with him as soon as was convenient. Maybe Elijah could come too..and Rey..he wondered if Elijah knew how to fish.
His gear beeped again and Marcus looked down to see the very same friend he was thinking about had asked if they wanted to room together.
He smiled at the thought, rooming with both Eli and Rey sounded really awesome.
He still thought it was stupid he couldn't room with Tera, or Faye, or Eve (the idea of talking with any of his friends well into the night, playing games and goofing around like the kids they were was one he liked entertaining the thought of) but at least he had two friends he could room with. (rooming with someone he didn't know and had nothing in common with just because they were guys would have probably sent him into a mood)
Quickly he typed out a reply
[/color]
To: Eli

[quote="ShyWolfHeart"] Hey sorry I haven't been responding...fell asleep lol
But sure I'm down to room with you guys. Do you know just what we're doing here?[/quote]

[color=skyblue]Looking up he found his brother looking at him with what the ten year old could identify as amusement..was he smiling?
Marcus had barely any time to figure out if he had actually made progress or not before Harvey, after seemingly considering something picked up the duffle bag he had managed to somehow cram everything in and turned around towards the desk.[/color]
[color=dimgrey][b]"Go wash your face Mr. Bennet. I'm leaving" [/b]he said and walked away.[/color]
[color=skyblue]The nickname was still weird to Marcus, who smiled sheepishly, knowing he probably had 'sleep' written all over his face.
Shifting Valiant in his arms, Marcus looked around for a bathroom before his eyes settled on a familiar mop of black hair.
[b]"ELI!"[/b] he called out waving to his friend to call his attention before walking over to him [b]"hey, I got your text..how'd the pokemon catching go?..do you know what's happening?"[/b]
Valiant, on his trainer's arm smiled at Eli too. This human made his trainer smile more, so the pokemon found himself fond of him.

[color=dimgrey]Harvey looked back only once when Marcus seemed to call someone over before turning back to the desk and asking the lady to both check him in and check his bag. He wasn't sure why he had looked back, it wasn't like he cared what Marcus did or anything.
Sure he had talked to the kid a bit more first after both he and Rey Myers had ended up in the nurse's office. Marcus was a student in his house, so of course the professional thing to do had been to take him back to the Kingdra house once the dust was settled.
Another happening with Myers (this one in the garden) had left the brothers with another topic of conversation. Harvey still found it hard to believe that the second person he had become acquainted with in Ordell was related to his half-brother's first friend in the academy
And if that wasn't a weird sentence in itself.
Still, Harvey wouldn't say he really cared about what happened with Marcus. The kid seemed to be getting affected by what was happening with Myers (and maybe there was something else added to that? ) but Harvey wasn't worried so much as he didn't want anything happening on his watch (students were kinda his responsibility after all)
Nope Harvey definitely hadn't felt anything, not even when Marcus had fallen asleep next to him five minutes into the ride, for all intents and purposes cuddling his starter like it was a stupid plushie, or a pillow and looking for all intents and purposes like he would sleep through a natural disaster.
So the kid was tired, so he got in trouble (apparently, according to the gossiping guards by skipping class) it wasn't really any skin off Harvey's back. Marcus was nothing to him, wasn't his problem.
Of course he was a student in his house so Harvey supposed he'd have to keep an eye on whatever was troubling the kid..simply for the sake of good form.
[i]Maybe I could talk to Ms. Ramos about it[/i], the Kingdra teacher mused taking the ticket to check his bag from the lady in the counter and turning to leave. His motorcycle was in the district, being kept by a friend and Harvey intended to take advantage of his three day stay here. Marcus was after all, a student in his house.
As he left, it didn't occur to him this could be considered progress, since two months ago he cared about his half-brother [b]less[/b] than he did the students in his house.[/color]

(((exit Harvey))
