oh ok cool.
i'm skye.


[there's a beat where he stares at his message and realizes it’s too short, especially compared to how cheerful the initial response is. He doesn’t want Junie to think he’s an asshole.]

sorry, skyler chen, but skye for short

[ok that’s probably not much better but he Tried.]

sorry, it was all pretty sudden
i think my dad’s family pulled a lot of strings to get me in.


[and he’s not super happy about it tbh, but it is what it is.]

um i need to work on magic.
like all of it.
i mean i learned a few basic charms from my mom
i can keep a ghost from entering my room?
but beyond that…
i was focused on other things.

no? i mean why? do u get jealous of ghosts a lot?

um, just one, though.
the duplex my mom and i lived in when i was a kid was sort of haunted.
he was harmless but liked to make noise.

right. sorry.
i’ve had a lot to process lately.


[apparently it has made him extremely awkward. yay.]

i don’t know if it was luck. my mom was good at charms, it was kind of her thing. she had a lot of clients come to her for help with spirits and warding off bad energy and that sort of thing.
i always thought a lot of them were just being paranoid, but i guess it made them feel better.

i guess so? maybe.

[he is not entirely convinced, actually. he doesn’t remember learning those charms coming super easily to him. then again, it was a long time ago and things change, right?]

it's ok, i’m not stressed.

[this is false. he is, in fact, quite stressed.]

what times work best for u so we can meet up?

my weekends are open too.


[it's not like he has a social life here, he’s a newbie and doesn’t know anyone.]

but u just said i didn’t hear it from u

[pls he is a simple boy, he doesn’t want to ruffle feathers or make any enemies. his dad's family is weird enough as is (which might mean other people won’t want to make an enemy of him but he hasn’t figured that out yet)]

right right. sorry

[he sends that and immediately cringes. why does he keep apologizing so much!!

just because you’re setting a good example doesn’t mean you can’t have fun right?

[not really, but he feels like saying so might be rude. or might get back to his father somehow and he’s not sure he wants to deal with that]

i don’t know.
it all happened kind of fast and no one asked me what i wanted.
anyway, it’s fine.
at least i don’t have to worry about tuition.


[daddy dearest is taking care of that, of course.]
