Rave clung to his arm to an almost uncomfortable degree. She squeezed his limb as if he was going to fly away the moment she let go. "Ya gonna stay, right?"
"Shouldn't be too difficult to satisfy the criteria," John talked in a calmer, a little deeper voice in an attempt to calm her down. "With my INT and WIS, I will pass the tests without issue. I don't really need a lot of money and keeping the place clean should be easy too… can't have it be dirty if you come around again."
"Yeah… hey…" the school bus slowly rolled up to them. "Wanna skip today?"
"Uhm, you heard the grades part of the ultimatum, right?"
"Ja, but… ya also need to take care of Baldy's stuff and levels." Rave sounded like she was grasping for reasons. She did come up with a couple good ones. "Plus, do ya really need your parents approval to stay if ya get enough money to buy a house? Ya can just move in with me!"
