Teenage Dating
ERIK!
Erik: It's okay. I'm off to be with my wife.
Erik: Alright Grim, where next?
*Grim gets a memory*
I really want to know what his memory is. Surely reaping someone can't be much of an important life event for him. He's the Grim. Maybe he's a new one on the job and it's his first. We'll never know.
Daniel: Shush watcher, Erik's dying!
Erik: It's alright lad. I'll be with Amelia and you have stuff to do. Don't forget to keep my Gabby happy.
Daniel: Gabby?
Erik: You know what I mean.
Daniel: Take that Grim!
Grim: Ow!
Tober: Erik was always the guitarist.
Kieran: What a lovely day it is!
Daniel: It's always a lovely day. We don't have Seasons. And put some trousers on. Watcher, when can I have my own room?
Better?
Daniel: So, so much better.
I converted the girls' old nursery into a room for Kieran.
And Erik and Amelia's old room was partitioned into two. This one's for Sophie.
And this one is Cait's.
Cait: Yes it might be a new room but stupid watcher won't let me stupid play in it until I've done my stupid homework.
Kieran learns to drive.
Kris: Teaching maths made me old. Teaching driving could easily be the death of me you know.
Kieran: It'll be fine dad. Which one's the brake again?
Sophie: I don't want to play on the seesaw with you again. It doesn't go up and down properly because you're as heavy as a tank.
Kieran: Muuuummmm!
Sophie: Muuummmm he's being mean!
Tober: Kieran, be nice to your little sister. Sophie, isn't it time for your bath?
Kieran: What?! I was being nice!
Sophie: Haha.
But what of our heir?
Daniel: I'm sorry your dad died, Gabby.
Gabrielle: It's okay. I didn't know him much anyway.
Daniel: I bought you some flowers, to make you feel better.
Gabrielle: They're lovely! But I told you, don't worry, I'm fine.
Daniel: I hope this doesn't seem insenstive then, but...
Daniel: Would you like to go to the prom with me? I mean, you don't have to. Not if you're seeing someone else. Or even if you're not seeing someone else you don't have to. Go to the prom with me, not see me, not in that way because you'd have to see me at school anyway because we're maths partners and...
Gabrielle: Yes!
Daniel: ... I guess I could swap with Kieran and he could be your maths partner but he's a bit annoying so you might not want him as your maths partner...
Gabrielle: I said yes!
Daniel: ... or you could have Kieran's partner and I could partner with Kieran, I just don't want you to feel awkward...
Gabrielle: Daniel, shut up! I said I wanted to go to the prom with you!
Daniel: ... Oh. Shall I...ummm... pick you up tomorrow at 5.30 then? Or later if that's good for you. Or earlier if you want to get food? Do you like the diner or the bistro better? Or we could go for a picnic or...
*muffled sounds*
Gabrielle: If that's the only way to shut you up I'm not complaining.
Daniel: Did you... just kiss me?
Gabrielle: And I will again if you'll stop rambling.
Daniel: Ahhhhhh! I'm taking a girl to the prom! What do I dooooo?!?
Kris: I'm tired.
Levitating does that to you. Go to bed!
Kris: I can't get down! There's no floor!
Sigh. *resetsim Kristofer CrumpleSteel*
Next time: The girls become teens and the aftermath of prom.
