Relationship Skills, Friday Period 3

"Well," Yennefer said. "We have reached the end of our time together, and we hope you have all learned many--" perhaps a bit much. "...at least a few skills to improve your relationships."

"It's a process," Jaskier assured the class. Because guess which duo would still welcome back that onion smelling Witcher at the drop of a hat.

That man was going to refuse to communicate with them and drag them all over the Continent, but had you seen him in leather pants? "The important part is that you try. And..." Yennefer consulted her notes. "'Never go to bed angry.'"

"What about drunk?" Jaskier, no.

"It doesn't say anything about drunk," Yennefer observed. "So drunk should be fine." Guys.

So helpful.

Nell was not planning on going to bed drunk anytime soon.

And there wasn't much point in going to bed angry as it didn't solve anything.

How you shouldn't go to bed, apparently.

Marc, who had gone to bed drunk more times than was worth bothering to count, personally thought it was a great way to handle things.

This morning, however, he was much more interested in using whatever skills he had to build a relationship with the strong cup of coffee he'd brought with him.

Nell passed him a blackberry, black cocoa, and tea cupcake with decadent frosting. It tasted good, trust her.

And a note.

My last class as a student.

It wasn't like Marc could tell the ingredients by looking at it. It was brown so he assumed chocolate flavored. Besides, right now he wasn't going to turn down the sugar boost either.

He sent the note back. Congrats?

Maybe?

I suppose we'll see.

Marc looked her over.

Nervous?

Very

About more things than her brain wanted to wrap around.

Marc gave her a sympathetic look.

You'll be fine. You're made of tougher shit than most.

He assumed the language might amuse her if nothing else.

She smiled at him.

I'll have you know...

I'm not made of shit at all.

But thank you.

Can I help?

You're very kind. I'm already went to take over your room - and yes, I know, you don't use it.

I've bartered with one of the rickshaw drivers to help me bring my plants over Sunday. Everything else will fit in my big bag.

You and Steven are a great support, truly.

Marc gave her an understanding look when he passed the note back.

Offer's open. What time Sunday?

Thank you.

Maybe after training? Or before? Whichever works best for you. I'm all set to go.

Marc quirked an eyebrow at her.

If you think you can handle moving after training.

This from the guy not letting his coffee out of his sight right now.

It's only my plants and two bags.

Maybe we should move before?

Marc thought about it.

Let's do after. Steven wants to give the tour.

And waking Steven up early on a Sunday was cruel. Especially that week.

Nell gave him a worried look.

A tour? How big is your apartment?

But, yes, after is fine. It won't take long.

Marc held up both his hands to disclaim any part of the idea that the apartment needed something as involved as a tour.

He also wasn't going to get into the discussions they'd had about the difference between the apartment being clean versus welcoming.

(No prize for guessing who took which side in such debates.)

Great. I'll let him know. You ok if it's both of us?

She smiled at his gesture and would absolutely have been able to guess if asked.

Of course I'm fine with it being both of you. Why wouldn't I be?

Steven wasn't going to suddenly pop up in an unexpected place this time. And honestly, she'd be better prepared if he did not that she'd seen it once.

This time the note came back with a shrug.

Just asking. It's ok if it's weird.

Even Layla had had a learning curve, after all.

It's fine with me. I might get a little confused sometimes at first, but it's fine.

No shame in that. And Nell hadn't even encountered the reflection thing yet. Maybe Watts could give tips since he was ahead of Nell in experience there.

Takes practice. Did for us too.

See, I'll be fine then.

I'm pretty adaptable.

Well... About some things. Luckily, this was one of them.

They're not angry, but they might be working on drunk.

Bless these messes.
