[ The tension in Hector seems to dissipate at that, and he gives a short little laugh. ]

Sure. But that means you get to help me clean the blood out of the carpet afterwards.

I dunno, aren't I supposed to be the unreliable kid who never gets chores done, either?

[secondthoughts]

I dunno. Are you?

[ Hector's not about to put preconceptions on her. He knows she's responsible, and he's honestly fine with her throwing whatever party she wants.

He shrugs, but the smile is still on his face. ]

It's your house, too. Just treat it like that.

[How could it be that her shitty jokes got turned right back around to sentimentality again.]

...

I guess it would kind of suck to live in a shitty, broken down house.

[secondthoughts]

[ Because deep down, Hector is extremely sentimental. ]

Yeah. It would.

[ He's quiet when he says that.

After a beat, he strides towards Shoka. He's taken it as a yes, with her still holding the keys, so he figures she'll keep them. When he reaches her, he pauses beside her only to aggressively ruffle her hair. ]

Keys are yours. I'll see you at home?

[Ack! Swatting his hand (lightly) away from her hair!!]

Yeah, yeah. See you, old man.

[secondthoughts]

[ Hehe. Fine. When he pulls his hand away, he waves.

And without another word he leaves the guild hall. Child 1 adopted successfully!!! ]
