Juliet

Juliet grimaces lightly and lays her hand on Kate's shoulder gently, "It will blow over, to anyone who doesn't know you it's honestly pretty tame. I'm sure that doesn't make it that much better, but that video should honestly be proof that somebody drugged you, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was the one who filmed it." Her lips tighten into a scowl and her fingers tap lightly on Kate's shoulder before she takes a deep breath and closes her eyes before removing her hand from Kate's shoulder and finishing off her food. She appears to be opening her mouth to say more, but pauses and gulps down the rest of her coffee instead. She drums her fingers thoughtfully against her cheek as she rests her chin in her hand. "You know what, Max got into Victoria's computer to help me, so assuming she still doesn't lock her computer when she leaves we may be able to delete the video from her account. She may have a copy of it somewhere still, but if she re-uploaded it it wouldn't gain as much of a following and the original spammed link won't work to find it," she rambles slightly about the possibility of actually getting rid of the evidence. Juliet continues thinking about the potential to get her hands on Victoria's phone and actually erase the video from the source, but has a hard time believing she could pull it off.

“It’s unlikely that Victoria would just give her phone to anyone. She filmed me with her phone after all. If someone could help delete the video off her phone while we deal with her laptop that would be a huge relief...Maybe Max could help somehow? I’m not sure...” Kate said, sipping her tea after having finished her waffles. “What does she get out of embarrassing me? This is cyber bullying...” she sighed.

“Your father owns the city? I would say that’s cool, but it’s sad that you don’t get along with him. I am gonna be honest. I’m friends with you because I want to be. Not because your family is rich and powerful.” Brianna replied. “You could probably throw a party at the school if you wanted though.” She added.

"You're not serious." I tilt my head and sigh. "Juliet, I thought reporters were all about non biased honesty.... And what if Wells finds out we broke into her computer? What would Victoria do?" She's off in her own little world. "Maybe.... maybe, but... there's got to be a better way than this!" Max.... she can help us. She's become sort of the Blackwell Ninja! After a few minutes of puppy dog eyes, I sigh. "Alright. Fine, drama queen, you guys win. I'll.... talk to Max." I bite at my lip, staring back at my food. Surely this isn't any worse than what Victoria did initially. But still.... We saw Max's room when she posted that picture of Victoria....

NATHAN

Friends? We've had... barely even a conversation. I... "Listen, I.... I gotta go." There I go again. Shutting myself down at the slightest bit of affection. Then something catches my attention. 'Rich' and 'money'. How did she know who I was? She's new in town, right? I didn't even tell her my last name.... I place one hand on the doorknob before sighinh, muttering a, "see you around" before entering. And how did she know I don't get along with my dad personally? How does she...? I look back at the door before my pocket buzzes. Jefferson...

NATHAN

Oh. "Parent troubles? Me too." I sigh, shaking my head. "I honestly wish I could get out of here, too, but... when your father owns the city..." I cross my arms and shrugs. That must sound strange to her... But surely she knows who owns the school she's going to, right? She's soon to find out, at least. "Trust me. It's not all great."

(Silly Nathan, you told her yourself ^^;)

Juliet

Juliet huffs at Dana's righteousness, "You're right, I am trying to avoid being biased, that's how I made a mess in the first place, but I just don't understand Victoria's game here. Maybe she was in a bad mood and you could approach her about taking it down herself? I can't imagine she'd do it, but if anyone could warm that cold soul it's going to be you." She gives a light smile to Kate, hoping that shutting down the idea doesn't upset her too much. When Dana mentions getting Max to help she responds, "Max would probably be willing to help, though I feel bad with how much of Victoria's wrath she's had to endure already. Maybe she'll have a better idea of how to go about fixing the video situation? Aaand I am going to be trying to get closer to Nathan.. if that goes well maybe he could talk to Victoria for us?" She fishes her card and a few dollars out of her purse to pay for her meal and thanks Joyce for the wonderful food when she comes by to check in. Once everything's settled she checks her phone and makes an odd whooping sound, "My next class starts soon, we should get going!" She looks slightly frazzled, her thoughts everywhere as she gathers her things together to take off.

Zoe

Zoe was not happy. Not even in the slightest. One misstep at her old school and she was shipped to a different continent. She was sent to a town called Arcadia Bay, which sounded like some town in a video game or tv show. The layout of the place was about right. She went from being the apex predator of the school to a place where she was a nobody. A rich nobody, but still a nobody.

It was her first day. She arrived early to get her schedule and such. They told her she could attend classes if she wanted today but she could skip them to unpack and get settled. She opted for the latter.

Unfortunately she was finished unpacking halfway through the school day. Her schedule let her know that if she started attending classes, it would start with science. She didn't really want to go, as was expected. Instead, she texted Frank.

She met Frank about a month prior when she came to fill in the initial documents. Her parents insisted she do it in person, since the school's online interface left much to be desired. She stayed in a motel for two days and met Frank on the second. He was the only person she kept contact with after she flew back to Europe to attend the last month of classes before her official transfer.

So instead of preparing to attend a class, she texted him, asking him for his best relaxation therapy and party starters. One was for now, the other for later. He responded, saying that he would send someone to the school parking lot in 10 minutes.

With a sigh, Zoe made her way to the lot. Her car stood there, in all it's shining muscle car glory. She admired it while she waited for whomever Frank was sending.


(I'm thinking Chloe could be the delivery girl here, maybe?)

(( I'm ridiculous, don't worry. X3 ))

DANA

I give Joyce the biggest bill I can find in my wallet before swinging out of the booth, smiling over at Kate. "Need a ride?" I ask, looking across the lot to my car. Kate's such a sweet girl. Quiet, keeps to herself.... which is exactly why she doesn't need Victoria doing this to her. I hope Nathan wasn't involved. He was nice enough to take her to the hospital. Which was sort of... too nice for him. But who knows? He's been putting up ice around himself the past three years.... maybe he's trying. That's.... admirable. As we get in the car, I smile at Juliet. "Why don't you go ahead and text him? Ask if he has notes or something."

[Ember1989]

“I’d love a ride. Thank you, Dana.” Kate said. Everything was going well. Then Dana mentioned Nathan. I’d rather not go near him.” She added, quietly. Nathan made me feel gross. Just remembering the evening makes me feel gross and uncomfortable. she thought. What had even happened at the hospital? Her memory was still a blur as she tried to think.

Juliet

Juliet settles herself into the passenger seat, taking time to check her face and hair in the mirror making certain there's no stray food in between her teeth or covering her face. "Hopefully he'll make it to class and I'll be able to bring it up to him in person, that way I can read his reaction and it's harder to avoid," she laughs lightly and swipes a new coat of lip gloss across her bottom lip. She drums her fingers thoughtfully across her thigh and looks back at Kate in the mirror, "Nathan was the one who took you to the hospital when you were drugged right, what makes you want to stay clear of him?" Her face shows heavy concern with a bit of confusion. As far as she knew, Nathan seemed to have done something really cool.

Chloe

Leaning against the counter in Frank's rv, Chloe watches patiently as he readies party supplies for a drop off at the dorms. She jokes around with Frank, as hostile of an image as he portrays, he's really just a big softie underneath, Pompidou is a dead giveaway to his true self if anyone manages to earn the pooch's trust. Chloe scratches Pompidou behind the ears, feeling a slight connection to her missing love, Rachel Amber who got along amazingly with him. Frank clears his throat and gives Chloe the details on the drop off and Chloe gives him a slap on the back as she puts the supplies in a hidden compartment in her bag. They were right down the street from Blackwell, despite not having any real reason to kick Frank off of school property, Principal Wells and the freak who has burrowed his way into Chloe's home will never allow his rv to sit in the parking lot for long. She throws a peace sign behind her back and calls out, "Stay chill, Bowers, text you when I meet her."

Chloe has her fingers hooked around her belt loops as she strolls casually onto school grounds. She half wished she made less of a spectacle of herself with the bright blue hair while having to blend in with these snobs, but she snorted away the thought and scanned the parking lot for the girl Frank described. She found one admiring a pretty nice car and felt a twinge of envy before thinking proudly of her own truck that she managed to fix herself. "Hey! Accepting a delivery from Mr. Bowers?" Chloe smirks lightly and winks, Zoe was a pretty girl, probably spoiled, but who was she to judge? Ambers certainly made a statement about spoiled girls having their own problems.

[Ember1989]

“Well...the next day I woke up outside my dorm feeling gross...” Kate replied looking away. She really wished they could change the subject. Still, she was glad neither of them had watched the video. It was sweet that they even wanted to help her to begin with.

[LadyGalleth]

DANA

Gross? Um... That doesn't... sound right. "Um... so Kate, are you... enjoying classes this semester?" I ask, twitching my nose a little as I think. Poor Kate.... Nate took her to the hospital.... oh I have a headache. When we pull into the school, I notice a new face I haven't seen before... And Chloe. What's she doing here? I scoff and make my way to them. "Here comes trouble." I laugh.
