Kon and Tim at some High Society party or something where Tim dragged Kon there to make him company.

I just wanted an excuse to play Kon in a suit, okay.

[Tim and Conner are standing just inside the entrance of the large room the party is being held in. It's a few minutes before the party is set to begin -- only one of two guests have shown up already and Bruce is seeing to them. In the meantime, Tim is drilling Conner on proper high society party etiquette.]

And don't try to ask the caterers for champagne. I've already told them not to give you any. [Tim narrows his eyes at Conner at the idea of what he might do.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

For the fifteenth time, Tim, I'm not going to get drunk for the first time in a party where your reputation might be at risk, don't worry.

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

Good. And don't forget to smile. You look like you're going to flip over a table.

[He starts out stern but ends with a slight smile. He is grateful to Conner for coming, even if he might mess up horribly.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

I just might... this thing is driving me crazy, how do you do it?

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

You did it wrong. [A small sigh, then Tim is pulling it undone and pulling Kon closer by the two ends. It only takes him a few seconds to retie it and then he focuses on fixing Kon's collar.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

Yeah, thanks... [ though the issue there wasn't if he was wearing it right or not for him... It was wearing it in general ]

Are you sure Bruce is okay with me being here? [ he says, after spotting him throw a quick annoyed glare at him for the third time ] He doesn't exactly look too happy about it...

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it. He's fine with you being here. [He made sure, he doesn't say.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

From the way he's looking at me as if I could light the whole place on fire by just staring at it, I really don't think so…

[ he tucks at his tie a bit more, it was starting to become some sort of nervous tick ]

I mean, i guess the point is that I could if I would, but I don't-- [ heavy sigh to calm himself down ] Geez, this is stressing me down already and we didn't even start! I better calm down before the stress gets worse and I give a reason for my other DNA cells to give in and start going bald.

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't want you to shed all over the floor. [He smirks.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

Those are some priorities there, Mr. Best Friend. [ a small frown ] When is this going to start anyway?

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

[Tim checks his very expensive watch.]

It's eight o'clock now. Everyone is going to be fashionably late, but the guests should start trickling in soon enough.

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

Why did you think it was a good idea to bring me here, anyway?

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

It's been a long week and I didn't want to go through this without reinforcements. [He gives Kon a sheepish smile to make sure he doesn't get mad.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

If by reinforcement you mean a tall dude scared of even breathing next to you, I guess I'm doing a great job then.

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

So far.

Just don't say anything stupid and you'll do fine.

STUDENT TEACHER TIM AND STUDENT KON WHAT OF IT



[It's only Tim's first week as a student teacher, but already the teacher is using him as her own personal grader and secretary. He's even been ordered to get her coffee in the morning. Eventually he just settled on making it unbearably sweet so she'd stop asking. Regardless, he hasn't been able to shake the mountain of paperwork that came with a high school English class. Aside from the usual tests, there are also all the essays the students have to write, which are just depressing. So Tim is sitting at his tiny desk during his lunch hour, trying to get it all done while the teacher is in the faculty lounge.]

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

Uuh, Mr. Drake?

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

[Tim peeks his head around one of the stacks of papers to look at Conner, pausing in his reading of one of the essays.]

Hey, Conner. Did you want something?

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well...

I know this is going to sound totally paranoid and it may end up into a totally desperate tone after you answer my question, but...

Do you have any idea how I did on the test? I really tried my best at it, I swear, but I might have got blocked half way through and... started sucking. And I mean, if I realized myself it was probably really, really bad. So, is there any way for me to know about it beforehand...?

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

[Tim sighs, glancing at the pile of already-graded papers next to him. He wants to reassure the kid, but it's kind of hard when he just gave him a C on his paper.]

Well, I just graded yours and while you didn't fail, you didn't do too well. Did you want to talk about it?

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah... what kind of "not too well" are we talking about?

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

[He looks up at Conner.] How does a C sound to you?

[outmatches.livejournal.com]

"Not too well".



Is there anything I can do about it...? -- This is probably going to sound cliché mixed with that desperate I was talking about bedore, but I really don't want my grades getting between me and "my stellar future with football", as my dad would say. Honestly, I just don't want to quit the football team and I'm scared that if I keep it like this I will eventually be forced to do it.

[chapsandcowl.livejournal.com]

You can try asking Ms. White for extra credit. She seems to like that. [He sighs again and runs a hand through his hair.] But honestly, it would be more beneficial to learn how to write better. You don't want to do extra credit after every test, do you?
