Anthony agrees! How convenient.

Very!

...and their last day together arrives.

"Last day."

"Yeah," she sighs.

"Should we… pick a day to meet up?"

"Still have the problem that is my father."

"Who I will hopefully charm or alternatively you can get away from to come to mine?"

"Getting away from him will be hard to impossible if you don't charm him."

"… I think I'm personally very likable but I'm not sure I'd be to his… tastes?"

"The fact that you also like boys will not make him happy," she says wryly, "but he doesn't need to know that part."

"I don't know how he'd find it out, unless we got reckless."

"Have you met me, I am extremely reckless."

"… But we could try to be reckless away from him?"

"Yeah I guess."

"Do we want to figure out – some sort of backup plan, if he finds out?"

"Probably."

"… Now or over MSN? I'm not sure what would be involved."

"I don't know, it'd depend a lot on how strongly he reacted."

"… Do we need to set something up if I don't hear from you?"

"...maybe."

"Do we need that now, or just at some future point when it's more likely he might find out –?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure what kind of plan we could come up with and I don't think he'd just forbid me from accessing the internet and the libraries have computers anyway but."

"– I mean, I don't know if you'd want to involve them, but – we could try some sort of authority."

"He's not physically abusive so good luck proving he's terrible and then if we do, well, what? Foster system?"

"… I honestly don't know. I suppose they can't just – reform him somehow."
