59Please respect copyright.PENANAFTzW1NKJDb
Bethany lays on Grayson's chest in his arms as he rests his eyes, her doing the same in his shared apartment where Ester, Mikey and Solayo reside. Sitting not far from Bethany and Grayson is an empty cheese, chocolate and fruit platter and an elequoant empty bottle, two glasses.59Please respect copyright.PENANAPmGHvcRBJ7
59Please respect copyright.PENANAceH9etH9k8
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.59Please respect copyright.PENANAgNtsuybSdC
59Please respect copyright.PENANA3vID3wg0JG
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."59Please respect copyright.PENANAyfHIPchZo7
59Please respect copyright.PENANAvMemOJwcT0
"I'm suprised his..."59Please respect copyright.PENANA7yuM5VTThI
59Please respect copyright.PENANAduCeGgaegt
"He just doesn't wanna stay down there miserable that bastard. His doing this for himself rather than for the benfit of everyone in this community, to get time outside."59Please respect copyright.PENANAFzkr0hGinF
59Please respect copyright.PENANA6C7AvQsS0N
"Well, it's not really time outside. He doesn't get to go out onto the farm or anything. It's still the lower floors in the minus." Estes speaks up.59Please respect copyright.PENANASvK4WuCjt5
59Please respect copyright.PENANAN5XPJupVeA
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAeKWv69QJQV
59Please respect copyright.PENANApCdy7iXlcV
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.59Please respect copyright.PENANAKn2TJfL1St
59Please respect copyright.PENANAcyduKEO1sY
"As long as it takes all of them. One doesn't get to leave, they all have to be ready. The chaos that would ensue if each one isn't ready and able to cope- What are you doing, Grayson?" Solayo speaks up, eyes annoyed when he sees Beth, the food and the booze.59Please respect copyright.PENANAkXvc7L8nnb
59Please respect copyright.PENANAZkrkWbwYjg
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"59Please respect copyright.PENANA3V4Y7SO63q
59Please respect copyright.PENANAIawnTnYyoU
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.59Please respect copyright.PENANA3hAEoPB8Xh
59Please respect copyright.PENANACL69wOYmhE
"Shut up both of you. Grayson, please get your boxers on and yes or no, answer me honestly. Are you fooling around or do you like her? Because we have spent the last two months getting the ones who came back on meds as well, and this could disrupt her regime.59Please respect copyright.PENANANO4k9nOiz0
59Please respect copyright.PENANAnw2reqpG2R
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAW7brdmN9S9
59Please respect copyright.PENANAMffQWJXLNS
"She won't freak out. Merge erases their backstory, but not your consciousness. She wanted to- what her and me did, we both wanted this.59Please respect copyright.PENANAPBzd5YEbu8
59Please respect copyright.PENANApa5QPuhhgs
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."59Please respect copyright.PENANAOFzWeeXw1r
59Please respect copyright.PENANAQTpqZ0bCcA
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure if Slate knew, he'd have something to say about that-" But Mikey doesn't get to finish, Solayo backhanding him behind the ear. "I'm sorry, Solayo." 59Please respect copyright.PENANAChecJJyVPp
59Please respect copyright.PENANAgYbPwmgzyo
"He wouldn't, neither him or her barely remember eachother. She forgot how she came here, and now she forgot being here and escaping and it's the same for him." Solayo hisses. "As far as those two are concerned, the other is just a stranger who resides on the same floor as and they don't know how they got here except the false story I told them, they came at diffrent times.59Please respect copyright.PENANAU15ApXz8Mb
59Please respect copyright.PENANAuoJ31zJzxy
They barely interact socially."59Please respect copyright.PENANAhBjUdGSHN0
59Please respect copyright.PENANAowaYq4ppAI
"Gray, for fuck sake. Just pick up your pants." Ester says annoyed. "Hey, baby. I'm sorry, I'm just goanna move for a second." Grayson tells Beth gently, moving her head off his lap, pulling the bed sheet around him while he grabs his pants.59Please respect copyright.PENANAqdflcxXksy
59Please respect copyright.PENANARHOeXE6MsA
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.59Please respect copyright.PENANADeHQbVBcmM
59Please respect copyright.PENANAsJa4ypUk0w
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.59Please respect copyright.PENANAY1Kvx8YgYE
59Please respect copyright.PENANAX8Jf4xQbOT
"Uh..."59Please respect copyright.PENANAsllSaajQ0W
59Please respect copyright.PENANAWlK7lTCG13
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"59Please respect copyright.PENANAmu0q3vC9xz
59Please respect copyright.PENANAJkQLSPSBkj
"Ester, I'm sorry-"59Please respect copyright.PENANAXQMjnxo7ys
59Please respect copyright.PENANAjS9XZcEVJc
"Don't you Ester me!"59Please respect copyright.PENANAr94Aj5umk4
59Please respect copyright.PENANAkNTJD0RFO4
"Listen to her." Solayo snarls. "Now, I'm going to go set the table now for dinner. Get Beth dressed again and take her backdownstairs-" 59Please respect copyright.PENANAKO3bBQhs1d
59Please respect copyright.PENANAWzqBPl53ij
When there is a squeal, Beth diving for the small cheese knife. It's on the blunt side, but it's the only weapon in sight.59Please respect copyright.PENANAY6gnZkWypF
59Please respect copyright.PENANA4IwdFgdGe4
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.59Please respect copyright.PENANAEVIJxEyOmm
59Please respect copyright.PENANAKjEyI3N1iG
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.59Please respect copyright.PENANAmC9KMMdZLY
59Please respect copyright.PENANAZwpATtfkNi
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.59Please respect copyright.PENANAMduXwfJk2O
59Please respect copyright.PENANArcEgL4XW47
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.59Please respect copyright.PENANAha9IBUARqt
"We don't care, her meds are the problem! The open alochol there, the endorphines from- I'm not going to finish that last part!" Ester yells back.59Please respect copyright.PENANAg9NaQhmGcx
59Please respect copyright.PENANAqQ2McQnElT
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.59Please respect copyright.PENANAmbbFCwb8mg
59Please respect copyright.PENANABOlzILl1aS
"You don't remember us talking and-" 59Please respect copyright.PENANAhqJwfWrQXN
59Please respect copyright.PENANATGsYr1JfHt
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"59Please respect copyright.PENANA7LQOXT2jej
59Please respect copyright.PENANA2u1Q8F12HI
"Beth, I know you're scared. But I need you to hand over the knife. Can you do that? Hand it to me?" Mikey coaxes, gently sliding towards Bethany, gesturing with his hand when she aims it at him, threatening him too.59Please respect copyright.PENANAmKFbdkdhcS
59Please respect copyright.PENANAxuAbdUwaFG
"Woah!"59Please respect copyright.PENANAE0tYLmWN6p
59Please respect copyright.PENANACUsomF7zPo
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAHfA7cfW26H
59Please respect copyright.PENANAN9YStUeqii
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.59Please respect copyright.PENANA5sYeSSSCmR
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"59Please respect copyright.PENANARSi4lFZqnu
59Please respect copyright.PENANAdafGqb9Ial
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.59Please respect copyright.PENANAg9fENSL6X2
59Please respect copyright.PENANAJKHPo6McPJ
When Beth's dressed, Ester has her sit and Mikey comes back over to them while Grayson hangs back a short distance. Solayo comes back over.59Please respect copyright.PENANANVI3TGk0rG
59Please respect copyright.PENANAcumsObWWYS
"Now, Beth. This won't hurt much, just a small prick-" But she dives away, Mikey grabbing her by the foot and pulling her back. "No, you don't!" He yells. 59Please respect copyright.PENANATgdvBeWEda
59Please respect copyright.PENANAQZIymXjlgS
"Let go of me!" Beth yells at him, Ester stepping away as Solayo takes her other arm, assisting and presses down with the needle. "No, no! Ah-" She cries, starting to cry. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAtC8DNxS0Zy
59Please respect copyright.PENANA4suuSO1O9y
He and Mikey roughly pick her up and move her from Grayson's bed to Ester, on account hers as restraints attached already... they secure them.59Please respect copyright.PENANAi0Bh7UF52d
59Please respect copyright.PENANAeS1gZMQZ2w
Ester sitting beside Mikey on his bed as they have dinner, Grayson on his own and Solayo on his own. They're almost finished when Beth wakes up a bit. Solayo quickly places his plate aside, hops down to Beth's level gently brushing her hair aside and keeps brushing her forehead.59Please respect copyright.PENANAm3Sx9k6GYr
59Please respect copyright.PENANAAHfQ7FAVXt
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."59Please respect copyright.PENANAAAetdk57S6
59Please respect copyright.PENANAUM0BwQHPRH
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAPxnBLRiWv4
59Please respect copyright.PENANAD45FxFxDnq
She nods weakly, struggling to keep her eyes open. "Okay, let's go there then." and he undoes the straps, lifting her up in his arms. "Mikey, with me. You both, stay here." He says annoyed as he leaves their apartment with Beth, Mikey following.59Please respect copyright.PENANACZ3uqCDEwh
59Please respect copyright.PENANAiHKke82uyj
Outside, he gives Mikey his pass and have him swipe the door rendering Ester and Grayson's pass useless, then gives it back to Solayo who snatches it and continues off towards the elevator. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAd2sPuHNGRQ
59Please respect copyright.PENANAk5ZwNDXDXd
When they head to floor 13, the rest of our group is dressed and ready for bed having had dinner when they see Solayo and Mikey with bed.59Please respect copyright.PENANA8xlcrdVdy8
59Please respect copyright.PENANAw3CSjhOcok
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAe4N7Ak4ArU
59Please respect copyright.PENANAYcc4pOTE8e
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAu5sDJW14cS
59Please respect copyright.PENANAN91Fjm3HQ5
"Good."59Please respect copyright.PENANAGfstKgZOpH
59Please respect copyright.PENANAPHWInqErKA
"Good. You know the drill, boy." 59Please respect copyright.PENANAb7xlq4u9FQ
59Please respect copyright.PENANAvY7A0SJxvJ
And Slate heads into his room, Mikey locking it behind him. He then ushers Cloud, Lyla and Gideo into their respective rooms. Paisley is already in bed, hardly leaves hers. "Night, Paisley. Sweet dreams..." Mikey trails off awkwardly, locking it.59Please respect copyright.PENANA9NSR1E5cUG
59Please respect copyright.PENANATssaxb7HqX
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 59Please respect copyright.PENANA4NZtDUxAxd
59Please respect copyright.PENANAFRTilHikl9
"Nah, we don't need em. She's calmer and we'll just sleep this off. Plus she ate anyway even if it wasn't dinner..."59Please respect copyright.PENANA7vrR1dfKbx
59Please respect copyright.PENANARfuKBFpK2b
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."59Please respect copyright.PENANAvIhpDA4SDU
59Please respect copyright.PENANAG0f1A8OGRu
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."59Please respect copyright.PENANAz8KpAZgaKo
59Please respect copyright.PENANAip6WlBZwzR
"Okay. Y-yeah..."59Please respect copyright.PENANAjqYjmKJfBb
59Please respect copyright.PENANAISfcqwSjaB
"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 59Please respect copyright.PENANAG9yhhi1UZn
59Please respect copyright.PENANAwrNSDoRcut
And our pair leave, dimming the lights to the floor for the evening.59Please respect copyright.PENANASIaNNDxQLb

(Three and half years later)59Please respect copyright.PENANAuXgXbnk5ei
59Please respect copyright.PENANAkerA47wbXh
Our group now around 24-25 not that they know it are all getting out today, three years and a half is a long time, but they hardly recall over half their time. Working towards this part of their rehabilation was difficult when the real truth is it was never about redemption, it was just cruel punishment before it even began and after constant drugging, it's a concept they can't comprehend.59Please respect copyright.PENANAxveDAUWZnn
59Please respect copyright.PENANASrcBEuiEYp
Bethany's lying beside Gideon, head resting on shoulder as he sits on the floor, bouncing a plastic handball against the wall, coming right back to him.59Please respect copyright.PENANAl2SL3LE1CP
59Please respect copyright.PENANA3d7vBayyFL
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.59Please respect copyright.PENANATLnfZNqFDt
59Please respect copyright.PENANAM5xHKmGHRZ
"Morning all." Cloud speaks up, coming out of his room. He recieves a few half hearted replies. With the group fairly unresponsive, he checks in on Lyla and Paisley, waking both girls. They each come out of their room.59Please respect copyright.PENANAgajSYu9uvF
59Please respect copyright.PENANACMtECYrXAG
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.59Please respect copyright.PENANA69vCEf0mU8
59Please respect copyright.PENANARDbtFgtWPM
It seems we are actually getting out today so if you all could collect up what you have here that would be great, and it's also my understanding when we process out, there is some additional stuff we're to collect that we couldn't have due to safety."59Please respect copyright.PENANA1EbX1S0KVf
59Please respect copyright.PENANA1onqstdMIp
"Safety?" Slate whispers. "Uh, I think you drew occasionally? I'm not sure, but I guess they didn't want you stabbing yourself, them or us with them.
Like the tip." Cloud answers awkwardly.59Please respect copyright.PENANAVHTJToKEZQ
59Please respect copyright.PENANAwIW5UvfZO1
Unlike the others, he knows the Tomorrow Party and is good at faking it for the long haul. The amount of time he cheeked the unesscary drugs, disposed of them and never got caught. Three years though down here was a long time when you are aware and awake for it all.59Please respect copyright.PENANA66Oy7qZikv
59Please respect copyright.PENANALEdwKdVGV7
"So, that's it for the morning announcements. Breakfast is coming I believe and medication." He finishes, the door at the end of the corridor opening right on time. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAbgUvCaXfZL
59Please respect copyright.PENANAykAvWdhFO9
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.59Please respect copyright.PENANAsylaQ6Z8va
59Please respect copyright.PENANApIbFEcrtyA
"Good, good. So eveyone, breakfast, then meds and grab your stuff please and then we are going to process you out into the population. You have stuff to collect you couldn't have down here, we trust you to hold them and behave appopritely."59Please respect copyright.PENANA8NHuNLYazH
59Please respect copyright.PENANAhNtxVzsLGa
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.59Please respect copyright.PENANAXWr6bf2EQl
59Please respect copyright.PENANAdSnGcxUJKE
While they all eat, the leaders prepare their meds. "How you doing?" Solayo smiles, bending down to Paisley even though it's no longer Paisley, a topic that has not been discussed. The girl she is now knows, but rarely talks because what is she meant to say? Lyla and her know they are twins as they look the same, but each feel nothing emotionally.59Please respect copyright.PENANA9OrkrLAoah
59Please respect copyright.PENANAdPkNlcGs2d
He holds out her med cup for her to take which contains the least amount of medication than everybody else. Inside is just one single tablet. She gulps it down, followed by a cup of water.59Please respect copyright.PENANAd7aiXUO5oV
59Please respect copyright.PENANA1isHnzf1hc
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.59Please respect copyright.PENANACUAMS6mEYG
59Please respect copyright.PENANAzT6ftYKtKm
Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 59Please respect copyright.PENANA2li4103kzk
59Please respect copyright.PENANAjXlta8uE2K
"Uh, fine I guess."59Please respect copyright.PENANAnDNVyfBQi4
59Please respect copyright.PENANAMbWX4tweBB
"Yeah? So, what we goanna do when we get to leave?"59Please respect copyright.PENANA3oc44N98LH
59Please respect copyright.PENANAnloEcwF31Y
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAlar7QiorlK
59Please respect copyright.PENANAY9NsQDzn42
"There will be, I don't want you and others to be bored and sitting down here really doesn't feel all that productive, yeah?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAXFPtAaB5V0
59Please respect copyright.PENANAsl24Fej6tu
"Yes, Sir."59Please respect copyright.PENANALwnjAO6BZ4
59Please respect copyright.PENANA2k2YUtMolB
"Your meds." 59Please respect copyright.PENANAHiYDcQ4IUk
59Please respect copyright.PENANAEeOlPS4B2m
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.59Please respect copyright.PENANATz42xj9mrH
59Please respect copyright.PENANAoAV4BVzAFT
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."59Please respect copyright.PENANALtIhCDuByW
59Please respect copyright.PENANAV7nlXQRLUq
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.59Please respect copyright.PENANAUXUKhNT9o3
59Please respect copyright.PENANAoCj3Uzn4X8
"Better now that you all are here."59Please respect copyright.PENANA5yyRRL0KCC
59Please respect copyright.PENANAKyf6bhnaXW
"You like our visits, good, good." Is Solayo's response. Despite the drugs, Beth's mood and fractured time eventally settled a bit for her to be able to go out with Grayson a bit. There was times they all got to leave for medical appointments and stuff, but she got to leave for other things sometime.59Please respect copyright.PENANA0dutxceCom
59Please respect copyright.PENANAVxCmm19YrQ
Only small though, sitting with Grayson on his lunchbreak even if it was only in the leaders apartment. No matter what it was, she looked forward to those far and few between events.59Please respect copyright.PENANAssscTx3HXl
59Please respect copyright.PENANA0nJjCIGEzB
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.59Please respect copyright.PENANA13Nj3u362R
59Please respect copyright.PENANAHuHbaWX4cx
"Do I have to take them?"59Please respect copyright.PENANArFxksrbRoe
59Please respect copyright.PENANA4KNH2Y4Upz
"You do, we've been over this. You know how we explained to you before that your mood was quite, well, it changed rapidly through out the day?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAKNUu5juPeR
59Please respect copyright.PENANAmQnsyHBdj8
"Yeah."59Please respect copyright.PENANAPa57iyLQLO
59Please respect copyright.PENANAFWhBZaJQHK
"That's why, and sometimes you posed a threat to yourself, saw things and had seizures. We didn't want you to get hurt so that is why you take these meds so that doesn't happen again ever."59Please respect copyright.PENANAXNlOktlkc3
59Please respect copyright.PENANATt6saIjVwc
"I don't remember what you speak of feels like though, it's-"59Please respect copyright.PENANA015HkpvIFP
59Please respect copyright.PENANAZjAQ5Ay5iQ
"If you're not ready to leave and your companions can't leave either-" He begins. "No, no. I'll take them. I'm sorry, Sir." She panics, downing them.59Please respect copyright.PENANAq4tf76UcS9
59Please respect copyright.PENANASZkvtciN6u
He checks her mouth seeing it's clear. "There we go, wasn't so hard." And stands. Once this is all over with, everyone collects the few clothes and items they have down here, the leaders leading them all to the elevator.59Please respect copyright.PENANAsB3Qx8h6L6
59Please respect copyright.PENANAT6SuUYCQDJ
They enter, no one handcuffed as opposed to when they first came down here. "So, as we have discussed before, it's all going to be very overwhelming, there will be alot of people.59Please respect copyright.PENANAAKpWqjIOgC
59Please respect copyright.PENANAmGCsJ1taty
We'll show you your rooms, take today to familarize yourself with everything. The day begins at 6:30 for you all and ends at 7 p.m. Lights out are at 9 and no one is allowed in the hall outside that time.59Please respect copyright.PENANAbTmzNdyEOj
59Please respect copyright.PENANAJRfpiwAy4C
Security will be patrolling the halls. The only reasonable excuse to leave is the bathroom or an emergency like a medical emergency or an alarm goes off signalling evacuation.59Please respect copyright.PENANAcfcl0jlwAK
59Please respect copyright.PENANAVcmF0XgZ2z
We'll meet with you all tomorrow and assign you your jobs."59Please respect copyright.PENANAZDVotwqH5X
59Please respect copyright.PENANAr1eDZorYdK
"We get to sleep in a bit?" Slate says excitedly. "Yes, you all do." Solayo responds, smiling and he gently ruffles Slate's hair.59Please respect copyright.PENANAKNKduUdehq
59Please respect copyright.PENANAZvM9o8lUl9
The elevator reaches the main floor and they step out, all in awe as they walk along the bridge seeing the farm outside and sunlight streaming in from above.59Please respect copyright.PENANAnlzx1ntya5
59Please respect copyright.PENANAeIjyKvruFY
"This is amazing." Gideon says, mouth open as they walk. They get a general tour. Cafeteria, shower and so on, are given their old tags with their first name on them and their keycards showing their access level. They are lead down a corridor that's a little more private and away from noise.59Please respect copyright.PENANAp0mRUs17S7
59Please respect copyright.PENANA9hPf0F3Vu7
Two doors. "On the left here will be the boys dormitory. Gideon, Cloud and Zekey. Ya'll have a dog you forgot about. His in our apartment so Mikey will be going back to collect him. You take good care of Zekey.59Please respect copyright.PENANAGen1HFQt6F
59Please respect copyright.PENANAXUZSrkhle2
Girls, you're all in the right room." And he opens both for our pair to split up and enter, looking around. "You want to go collect the stupid dog? I'm tired of it peeing around the place."59Please respect copyright.PENANAbjnVAlRieB
59Please respect copyright.PENANAXSIZHiNmCn
"Solayo, the dog is pretty old by this point. It-" 59Please respect copyright.PENANAA30ItTynFA
59Please respect copyright.PENANAwlijHr5UJ5
"Mikey, I don't want to hear it. Collect the damn dog." 59Please respect copyright.PENANAGa5CikIRm8
59Please respect copyright.PENANALviEELbMrk
Ester goes with him to accompany him, Solayo leaves with Cloud to show him his room, a seperate private room all to his self and Grayson remains behind, gesturing for Bethany to come out and see him. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAXWscnxy26c
59Please respect copyright.PENANAqQdksQL749
She slips out while Lyla and Paisley are distracted putting their stuff away. "Hey you." She smiles, pushing Grayson against the wall, hands feeling his toned chest and starts kissing the side of his face, trailing down his neck. "Wow, okay. Thank you, that's nice." He blushes, pushing her away.59Please respect copyright.PENANA26UtHQOxZL

"But you love me."59Please respect copyright.PENANAPgDXVRHSrW

"Teach me later?"59Please respect copyright.PENANAM7ucieTpYr

59Please respect copyright.PENANA3wJ03sbLaG
Mikey is holding Zekey, Ester beside him. "You know that isn't okay. You're a piece of shit. Solayo may think it's okay, but you know this is wrong. What happened to your morals?59Please respect copyright.PENANA77RrOht2qf

Slate liked her, and your relationship with Beth is built on nothing but power, your in a position of trust and have power you can manipulate and abuse, not to mention you are way older than her.
She may think she loves you, but it's not built on anything concrete like actual dates and so fourth. Beth doesn't know anything more than this place's four walls.59Please respect copyright.PENANAlV8XnAjNAM

"If you love her, Gray, you'll let her go." Ester tells him. "And it's okay for Mike and me to... we're on the same power level, there is no imbalance here, not even about our ages. We can consent, Beth hardly can when we have been giving her antidepressents, sedatives, antipsychotics, Merge and the occasional seizure med for the last three years.59Please respect copyright.PENANAfP1NwGtvVK

You can ask her if she wants you to stick your dick inside her, but while she's taking so many meds? No. Just because she's saying yes, doesn't make it okay. 59Please respect copyright.PENANAraExI5RD9H

Merge over long term has proven innefective. Some people have crashbacks, blood comes dripping out their noses. Merge is only really suitable for short term use. It's not designed for erasing an entire person's personality and sense of self.59Please respect copyright.PENANAzSiH3fuOvC
