This book is dedicated to Lawrence, my dear friend, champion, and muse in all the arts.
‘Heh. Why so glum, dumbass?’
It was early, way too early for many of the other kids around college, and thus it was also way too early for getting called names.
That’s what Tris Lister had observed, anyway… but was that the reason she was getting accused of dragging the mood down? Of course not! Tris actually loved mornings! She liked them orange-tinted early! Think about it; the earlier she was up, the more time she had to think about her next few posts and scout out locations and catch up on her recommended feed… oh, and it meant she could see Avril sooner too! Wednesday was Avril-day! Like, here the two girls were again, on the parking bollards at the bottom of the playing field; Tris looked as perky with her black A-line bob and red flannel vest as Avril looked numb, a ragged-blond girl, her hoodie hanging off her like the cigarette between her fingers. Ok, disclaimer; Wednesday was usually Avril-day, unless Avril had gotten suspended from school again for just this kind of attitude…
Wait, who was she calling dumbass
anyway?
‘Um, that’s actually pretty insensitive, Avril; just so you know, most people would say…’
‘Oh. Right.’ This realisation had nothing to do with Tris’ observation; the ragged-blond girl must’ve just remembered the true reason for her only friends’ dejected slump. ‘It’s the news, huh? The music news? That’s why you’re being such a gloomy pain in the ass...’ Casually, like both girls’ worlds hadn’t just been blown wide open last night, she offered Tris a cigarette. And again, just like always, the girl in the red flannel vest gently waved her off.
Why couldn’t the music world, in uproar today, be just like always
too?
‘Yeah. The news. I… I don’t even know why it’s slapped me so hard; like, imagine actually being in the band! Todd, and Felix, and Izzy, and... ohmigosh, Todd…’
‘Heh. Guess it sucks to simp so hard.’ The ragged-blond girl shrugged; each unsuccessful click of her lighter raised the slightest increment of annoyance out of her. ‘And to be me. Having your best band ever copping so much hate is like getting called a fat, ugly… oh,
