3.) [accidental video.]

((or action for Stephen Stills, if he happens to be around))

[The tail end of a distressed yell (read: scream) is heard as the video clicks on. Neil is sitting on his bed, hugging his knees to his chest tightly and staring with apparent horror at the opposite wall of the room.]

H-how did you get in here?

[His shoulders are tense, and if one looks closely enough, he appears to be shaking just slightly.]

How long have you been here? S-Stephen didn't mention that you...

[Neil seems to be terrified to move a centimetre from where he is. He gulps and takes a shaky breath, his voice coming out high and pleading.]

Why won't you say anything?!

[But it's clear to anyone watching that there is no one there; Neil is the only person in the room.]

((ooc: Neil has fallen victim to the Ghost World curse! He seems to unintentionally be playing host to visitor from back home...))

I am actually going to punch him.

[Long sigh.]

A while back, that big fight I had with Julie at Sneeky Dee's was kind of... broadcast over the network. The fight was about Knives, and I left with her after, so a lot of people got... the wrong idea.

Oh. well, okay. That's cool, or whatever.

I mean, I tried to tell him, man. You only date Julie, that's just how it is.

[Waves a hand dismissively]

Maybe, like, a million years ago.

High school wasn't a million years ago! I'm not that old...

[It pretty much seems like a million years to Neil; he's young.]

Whatever. It's not like you would date anyone else now. Right? Especially not Knives.

Definitely not Knives, man. She's all yours.

[Well, still mostly Scott's, actually. And slightly Kim's.]

Not really.

[Neil kind of looks like he wants to go and curl up in the fetal position again.]

She pretty much hates me or something.

You know she was dating you to make Scott jealous, right?

[Neil makes a strange sound and turns his face away.]

Yeah.

I guess.


[He's totally not crying.]

[Oh god. Neil is crying. This is so not Stephen's domain.]

Come on, man. I'll buy you breakfast.

[Neil takes a staggering breath. You know, because of how he is not crying.]

R-really?

You're the best.

[Some sniffling and a rush for a hoodie.]

Did I mention I got a job? I totally have a job, s-so, I can like... return the favour, sometimes, or whatever.

It's this place called the Turnabout Café. It's kinda fancy, but they let me in there anyway?
