[ it's weekend zero you can't have my tragic backstory yet
but while he smiles a little gratefully at the first bit, it's the second that lights up taair's face. joy, though muted, is clearly present. ]
...you'd like to, really? [ soft, a little surprised - but he immediately turns the book back towards laurence. ] Laurence...of course you can. I - nothing would make me happier.
You will have to let me know what you think - and of course, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate and I'll be happy to explain. I tried my best to ensure it was understandable to anyone, so... ah. [ there's a brief little rise of something emotional - and he smiles, again, further, ducking his head. ] Thank you - thank you. Really.
[ oh god not the emotions? he immediately looks away, embarrassed, and crosses his arms. ]
I-I mean, it's not like we have anything better to do. The spa isn't really my kind of place. Might as well read something. You don't have to... thank me for it.
[ grumble grumble it's not like i care or anything ]
...If you say so. But I'm still not the intended audience, right?
[ it is a little sad but who is laurence to judge when all he's written are essays his teachers probably hated
hmmm, something he'd want to see? ]
...A track so I can run, maybe, but I guess I don't need that if this place keeps getting bigger. [ there's so much room. no one should get mad if he goes for a jog if they have all that space, should they? ] I'm not really sure what else. Most of the time when I wasn't in class, I was in the sports areas with my friends. A library, maybe?

[ he sounds very excited about this even though it's sad. ]
I do hope that this place will continue to expand. Is there something you'd like to see here, Laurence? Something you really like to do?
