no its okay
this guy mysterio is a dick, mostly.
and he tried to get me to live with him?
convinced me to stay for the weekend actually
and when i tried to leave he tried to keep me there

I met him at the Ren faire, after I met you. He seemed all right then but I've noticed some contention on the network. Frankly, I like you better, so I quit talking to him.

Sorry, what now? He what? What did he do?

( And exactly how rough does she need to get with him the next time she happens to see him around? Or does she need to go find him? If this were Cleo she were talking to, she'd go proactively out to find him and she'd make him understand how bad an idea it is to try to hurt Rikki's friends. As it's Peter, she'll hold off unless he gives her reason to think she ought to. )

Wait, why was he trying to get you to live with him? What would you need to do that for?

[ Huh, that's not quite the reaction he expected? Concern, yes, but not all of that. ]

because i accidentally made him my guardian
i needed it for school but i guess the paperwork actually got filed and
look he took it way too far

Peter, if you needed someone over 18 to sign stuff for you, why didn't you just ask me?
I would've done.

Anyway, that doesn't matter, sorry. What did he do to try to keep you there, I meant?

oh.
i didnt realize you were over 18 somehow

anyway he used illusion tech, tried to scare me into it
pulled some nightmares out of my head and made them real

Oh...well yeah. I'm 19. So if you still need it or if you need it again, let me know, yeha?

Oh my God, Peter... Who does that?! Are you all right? Where are you? You're not still there, I hope...

yeah yeah for sure
i have emancipation paperwork now at least

[ So hopefully not. Hopefully. ]

oh my god no i got out
he's a lunatic

You're not staying back where you lived before, are you? He could come back, yeah?

( Rikki doesn't know what Peter can do, so she doesn't know if he can take care of himself. Even if he can take care of himself, can he actually if Quentin has the ability to literally take things out of Peter's nightmares and make them feel real to him? )

Have you got somewhere safe to be, mate? My house is pretty full, but I doubt if any of my flatmates would mind if you needed to crash on our couch or sleep on my floor or something...

( Unlike some of Peter's other friends she's seen getting proactively aggressive with Quentin on the network, Rikki won't. She'll wait until they bump into one another in person to make her own threat known. That is, if he doesn't bother Peter again before then, at which point, she might do exactly what she's seen the others doing. It's more her style to show rather than tell, though. )

yeah
i already got that covered. im with a friend right now.
temporarily.

[ He can't live with Ronan and Kylo forever, but it's a start. ]

i wouldnt mind crashing though? give them a break.

Okay good. Yeah, I'll drop my flatmates a line just to be sure and let you know later today when you can come round?

They're fine with it. You can come round whenever, Peter. Might be easier if you stay in my room so you're not stuck in the middle of the living room, but if you don't want to sleep on the floor (or we can take turns sleeping on the bed, that's fine, too), then they won't mind about the couch.

(( ooc; had the conversation on Plurk, ic; she asked around in person at home lol ))

[ Uh. Hang on. He's gonna. Process the part where a girl asked him to sleep in her bed. ]

couch is good
couch is fine

( Meanwhile, she sees nothing weird about it since she's offering to take turns rather than share at the same time. Poor Peter. )

Oh, or...if you needed to stay more than a couple of nights, I bet we could just get an air mattress for the floor. But yeah if you want the couch, it's all yours. Whatever you want.

( He's the one that needs the break from his own living situation, after all. The point is to make sure he's comfortable. )

Just let me know when you're planning to come so I can let them know. :)

no no i like couches
i uh
ill let ronan and kylo know

( ...okay, the "i uh" catches her and she presses her lips together against a laugh, even though he can't see or hear it. )

You like couches? Okay, mate. Right, well...ours is all right, I suppose. I'll see you soon then? Doesn't have to be tonight, but you're welcome to come that soon if you like.
