So, hey Cadelleans. Cadellers? ...Cadellites?

[nope, they all sound bad. really bad. but he's just going to stop himself grimacing at that and refocus on the whole point of this message.]

My name's Scott. I've met a couple of you when I was-- [he holds a hand up, palm down in the universal sign of "shorter".] I went home for a while, so to anybody I knew before? Sorry for everything. I was...kind of an ass back then, and I know I said a lot of things I probably shouldn't have. [though given that he's already made up with his pack, he's already dealt with the worst of it all.]

Anyway. We're all here for the same reason. [the possibilities, rather than the specifics.] So what I was thinking was that maybe we set up some kind of monthly movie night? I don't know how many of you have been to the cinema here, but they've got one screen that'd really work out great with the whole bonding-slash-intimacy thing. No seats. Just huge pillows, and the manager is up for letting us use it every month if we want to.

[it counts as an act of good will for her, and they can all add to their own energy generation with a little snuggletime while they watch. it's win-win.]

Think of it as an easy way to get a quick boost towards your goals while making a few new friends along the way. [a pause, and--] And before I forget. Any recommendations for the first movie-fest?

[just no star wars. stiles will kill him if he finally watches the films and he isn't there to witness it.

...wow does he miss the rest of his pack already. it hasn't even been a month yet.]

so you're going to tell malia you don't hate her anymore, right?

( because that's kimberly's priority. )

[leads]

wait hold on. is she still upset with me?

[because as blunt as malia may be at times, he knows that she'd try to hide being upset with him if she still felt that way now.]

[recoined]

idk, did you ask her?
she seemed pretty upset that you hated her forever

[wildkingdom]

No, I'm not.

[SHE REALLY ISN'T SHE JUST ... forgot to tell Kim things were okay again. >.>]

[wildkingdom]

We talked about it. We're fine.

[Please stop ... whatever it is you're doing because while it's REALLY APPRECIATED in a friend sense, she doesn't want Scott thinking he has to get defensive or that she blabbed about their situation to everyone.]

[leads]

not today. she was okay last month though so i dont know if ive done something since then?

[leads]

[okay. alright. relaxing now.]

okay good
youd tell me if something was wrong though wouldnt you?

[wildkingdom]

Yeah, of course. I just talked to her about stuff before and didn't tell her that you were back and we're fine.

[leads]

alright

[because he has no reason not to believe her. if she says she'd tell him, she would. simple.]

you know im about 90% sure i had a conversation with her before that ended up talking about skinny dipping and sex
following that up with all the stuff that happened between us means she probably has a pretty low opinion of me by now
maybe the three of us should go do something?

[wildkingdom]

I don't think it's as low as you think.

[Kimberly did defend him a bit when they talked it out so, there is that.]

But yeah. That could be fun.

[recoined]

( don't let boys walk all over you, malia!!! especially not boys who don't know how to send texts correctly. )

if you say so

[recoined]

( she may or may not have scrolled down )

i think you're fine
btw i'm free on saturday

[duelo]

[ Yeah, Derek can read. It wasn't awkward at all, really... ]

Is it safe to take you up on that invitation or...?

[wildkingdom]

[Malia never lets boys walk all over her!!! It was a miscommunication that Scott going home happened to solve.]

I do say so. Scott's a really good guy.

[Because now she has to convince Kim of this.]

[recoined]

well, he better be, or i'll have to kick his ass

( the bravado is so real. she wouldn't, anyway. she likes scott. she just likes malia more, because #chicksbeforedicks or whatever the phrase is now. obviously. )

[leads]

saturday. sure
though is it weird to ask if you want to go grab a coffee today too?

[ulterior motive? what ulterior motive??]

[wildkingdom]

If he wasn't, I'd be kicking his ass.

[She also wouldn't have Feelings, look, Scott is complicated but he's a Good, so hopefully Kimberly will never have to exercise that judgement.]

[leads]

id say it should be but im just complicating things
so lets just go with its time to make things a little less awkward and that starts with spending time with one of your friends









who i know nothing about what does she like WHERE SHOULD WE GO MALIA??

[leads]

of course its safe




unless youre scared of horror movies
do i need to hold your hand?

[leads]

what she said

[malia is vicious when she needs to be okay]

[duelo]

Ha, you're hilarious. I think I'll be okay. Never mind.

When did you think you want to start these movie nights?

[recoined]

it's a little weird
but lucky for you, i'm used to weird people who are bad at texting :)

( she hasn't forgotten that original conversation. )

[leads]

next week? that should give people enough time to decide whether they want to come or not
and if they dont, at least theres the three of us?
four

[leads]

want to give me a timeframe for when we can forget about that?

[recoined]

if you didn't, i'd be pretty disappointed

( kick ass gal pals, okay. that's their thing. )
