    Warning: language! I can edit out if needed!“Can you get me a peach pill? And you might as well get me the white one too. Grab the nitro paste while you’re in there, I’m gonna need it,” Callum says, “Don’t know what this therapy is supposed to be about anyway.” He can already feel his blood pressure rising. Maybe he should also take an extra orange pill too, just in case? Why not, he’s already taken a whole rainbow this morning.Blythe walks back into the kitchen with the pills, nitro paste and patches, and blood pressure cuff. “We tried it your way and all the therapist did was talk at us the ...ZLDone door

    Climbing Up to the Bottom

    NOTE: THIS STORY CONTAINS A COUPLE OF MENTIONS OF VIOLENT ACTS.   Pat O’Grady had to do something.

    Silence & communication

    "Kjaa? You sound like an animal girl," she harshly judged him. He? He just jumped away from the table, shouting, screaming. He completely burned his tongue on the overly hot tomato soup. She laughed. "If you are that angrwww.onedoor.ccy, I will go home." Right in front of his face, she waved at him. "Oh, you are mute, not deaf," she poked fun of him as she opened the door.Ronald looked furiously around the room.
