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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4XqdcAGyY
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vkIfFz82i
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XECuVih7x
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2nA9qoKSF
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCBOuV1sKR
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEe2jkOpx9
"I'm suprised his..."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs67pz04p1W
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTpbX3Vynu
"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."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg62sQhu8Hj
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvxZaEKs9j
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJMxXcjNf0
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJvhXGzmVg
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad16dHO8JM
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTEOaKXvyo
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJf7L2ACS1
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsMhyVEhrR
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMJWEVsG8e
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIBhbbPELU
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMnftrOUOp
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u33Acqh0j
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVja8AKwPa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEmWY3DC0H
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q2XvOCm2t
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxHsDvzPQ1
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR3lqObLvz
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW69m5hAFd
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a0HNPFxyO
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQznCuAslW
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3umB5hcfM
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU80nNKm8pX
"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." 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJDNHWPirv
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoL7IyKYYJ
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHPNfiUUdx
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC0WojA1O7
They barely interact socially."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNnbDhH1tE
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW52eBT9KI
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1MuxeOH2f
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCoq3atQ6Q
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Bz8fo5V8x
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkpioh5Fdy
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3QtB6HkZV
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkJVjhCSAO
"Uh..."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhnCgIZWgH
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbjqLbrHaK
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn68ZE0IvL
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJ8uEwfuf6
"Ester, I'm sorry-"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0G3bGPqZ8
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hB9fm2mV7
"Don't you Ester me!"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TybLwbf6h
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UuseI2e1Y
"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-" 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ265GFxb1X2
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iQC4uG1qN
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP0kTyIZaM
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWP5ihc5jD
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiK6KC0XIo
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYidM128SwR
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRrt2agVm2
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFAx1dgfvH
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5MXDHqjm6
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyQdkaE5v3
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgd7LlEIRq
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcmrIFjVxO
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b8lIoT9Hl
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcU21H86ad1
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRpJF5mXko
"You don't remember us talking and-" 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz1Ren2pfl
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHVzG68GBn
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpynzOrHtFk
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEj03ObYGV
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7ZTLPqszV
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8H5fkWLp5
"Woah!"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsRsu61Nvt
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dcYb5E6m2
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcYA6kZNhd
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dkFEb5X6J
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80xoMslZR7
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZrDH7HZHE
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdGB2h2gwp
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExXcdJgbGm
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QWzEXVskG
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw58ZMdXCP
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8dPxqpy71
"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. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPUNs4N1T1
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCqNL4B6bp
"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. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAINu5ndtE2
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiHTm7BJqX
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoJiC4Ey0r
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbtBnMZTK8
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEidmIqdonZ
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3ZynsCd1R
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI4CbH1gNb
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt0hrDhSoq
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxLcYuCe07
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEwiZMiWM0
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFEEbkcosQ
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEufRWRAA4
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. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9JHjIhswY
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2CVNW6b2G
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIF6l8n64q
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm19RYacVn
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9zlN3QWXQ
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1g7ieKl1s
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiLB0bfW2R
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP34rdFc07V
"Good."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ261X0Pa6WM

"Good. You know the drill, boy." 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eEDymyrHj
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56oVUBWAKD
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoywwPhjJaG
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbOPKzPdn8
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqxG4xObi9
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxMx9sN18w
"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..."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAMFJmYpsG
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRUDdcmI0M
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaRilRgBQu
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqJEqdG8sD
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJ1YEFrKqa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAI8nNTvQW
"Okay. Y-yeah..."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PcQECXXTR

"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoHWiHsKSW

182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxXugO6UZ1
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs63cqg3ox
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5md5BFN5Rb
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl1EsRfB7G
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntejjIGaXK
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyXVDu18va
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLcfhik6IC
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMhRICZWLa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTSmjzgLdT
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY2tQX7KlR
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN4GTQA3lX
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."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm3P0Q7wWL
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ618hgIo4b
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXrc1UqLwt
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTCGbihvPl
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xsmfhHMwm
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTet5u99xW
"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. 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYmPxQdS6t
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h0TM3OTzL
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VW4MBX8RT
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99sfVHJkND
"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."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUOUt0rEo7
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFogNiFdZS
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7q6evXBwW
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1cfaZSuUp
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlH1t5A8BS
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDBwVtFgb7
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fBcY1837n
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv4Zi0vP20
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPKfVu6HQs

Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbPYHQEuj6

"Uh, fine I guess."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5jHmXVC2x

182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrlW6Nr3rh
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rOXTkM3gU
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VSKUtQJ0a
"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?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IQJ34M2XH
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDirrKsmBei

"Your meds." 182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCHcPlgSaz
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡervS1nRI9W
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4sjAJbeKM
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG4Bbz40SF
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoYTX0lNh8
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtPvJHRvO4
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZmB7sBfCF

"Better now that you all are here."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaAxdQENoa
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxi4vam1Ub
"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnLvLOSjwX
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOzx4lWLiB
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwvxQlgEQx
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CXzLxU2DR
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfUV3ukDUz
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyxCgBAuWc
"Do I have to take them?"182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CaFEtd4bg

"Yeah."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzacmmVhrf
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxdKDGdqcM
"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."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnhBfrv6jR

"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpl43XmpGN
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxc0XIP4NE
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpNIU0mPD9
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo98sjmbr7t
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtx1uZzcGy

"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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX0HOos0pm
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceuLqroszH
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.182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYfHl8WgGs
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn5vGt8Rpl
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."182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzwO2N4ip0
182Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPi6X4Uz0V
