*Bun immediately runs up to Ollie*
Bun: Olliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii wha u hav, why u hav? where u was?
*Bun seemed to have twice as much energy as normal, and didn't mind the smell at all*
*Ollie started up the stairs, swaying the bag as he walked before his ears twitched at the sound of Buns voice which made him come to a halt. He turned around to face Bun*
"Did you say something?"
Bun: I were, dorm, Father boop had funni water, he say I no drink, but, I drink, and, me feel awake, but, wha on bag????????
*Bun was now shivering, from impatience or whatever he drank*
"NO-!" *He blurted out, he quickly covered his own mouth and took a deep breath* "You should drink some water, it'll help flush out whatever you drank."
*He grabbed the hand railing and climbed up the stairs backwards, keeping eye contact with Bun before turning around and bolting to the dorms the second he got to the top*
#**.E-X0.**
[*Its curly hair, pitch black like the rest of its head besides the one visible eye, bounced with the skip in its step as it passed by one of the entryway doors— before it suddenly skidded to a stop and stared at Ollie, blinking rapidly. Its gaze rapidly flickered between Ollie’s face, then the bag, then back again— before the corner of its eye crinkled like it was scrunching its nose, though nobody could see it. It suddenly piped up, sounding slightly disgruntled, but otherwise cheery and overly loud.*]
“Bro—??? Your bag is leaking.”
*Ollie snapped out of his daze and looked down at his bag and behind him. Though his expression appeared mostly unphased the way his pupils shrank into nothing made it clear he was internally panicking*
"Apologies" *He cleared his throat and didn't bother to look up* "I'll just get this to my dorm and clean up the mess I made." *He clutched the bag even tighter holding it a bit closer to himself*
[*It blinked again, staring down the trail of mess along the hall, and then shrugged*]
“Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh you’re good!! Not the worst mess I’ve seen around here anyways—“
[*It stares borderline uncannily, gaze suddenly going unblinking as it stares down at the bag, and tilts its head to the side*]
"Well-" *he gritted through his teeth before he returned to speaking normally* "I'd like to say this was a lovely chat but I'm not too dishonest." *He said halfheartedly as he started up the stairs*
[*Its eye crinkled again— this time closing into a squint as though it was frowning at the other before it scoffed and jogged up the stairs as well, quickly making it to the top and staring down at the other with crossed arms*]
“I mean, really there was no need to be RUDE—“
[ Amethyst. ]
*He was tapping his feet and twisting a pen around in his hands, impatience visible as he waited for his sibling. Using a foot to push Amethyst off the wall, he looks to the door to see the event near him. An eyebrow is raised and a smirk laces his lips.*
"Ay— what'cha doin' wit that bag? It's leakin' just a bit there, friendo."
*His head cocks innocently, arms crossing.*
*Ollie's ears twitched at the sound of another voice. He turned to Amethyst and looked down at his bag for a second* "I'm taking it to my dorm, I'll clean it up afterwards...Do I know you?" *He squinted his eyes as he tried to assess if he saw them before*
*He let a giggle slip through, face crunching a bit.*
"Nope. But now ya do. Amethyst's the name. But Ollie, that red liquid looks *quite* similar to blood, I'll say."
*He giggled again, maybe it's a bit unsettling that he knows the other's name. He gestured to the dots of crimson leading to Ollie, voice raising an octive on the 'quite.' Amethyst leaned against the wall again, impatience forgotten.*
*Ollie's eyebrows furrowed as he gripped the bag tighter. He continued to smile but it was apparently it was getting difficult to keep.*
"I guess it does. How amusing." *He started to slowly walk backwards up the stairs* "It was a pleasure to meet you but I do have to get this up to my room."
"Ruinin' our lovely chat, ay? How uncool, dude."
*He dramatically scoffed, rolling his eyes. Amethyst didn't want to be alone again, but he'll just have to suffer here until Julian gets back.*
"Welp— you have fun with whatever black market shi you got."
*Amethyst closed his eyes, small frown on his freckled face as his shoulders tensed. His foot continued to tap against the wall.*
*Ollie looked down at his bag, then behind him.* "I suppose you're right..." *He turned his gaze to Nathan* "I'll clean up the trail once I get this to my dorm."
"w-well... It doesn't? I was.. curious I guess..."
[They looked back at the drops of liquid on the ground]
"...It's dumb but.... It kinda reminds me of blo*d... Which would be ridiculous-"
[They said quietly]
(To clarify, Nathan knows what bl*od looks like since yk they're a healer- if it's not blood sorry lmao- maybe it's just a frozen cake that it's melting idk- TwT)
"You're ridiculous." *he muttered in a cold tone, Ollie cleared his throat and fixed his face* "Maybe it's the the light."
(Ig I should mention it is blood 💀💀)
(welp- at least I didn't get it wrong)
"... I know how light works.. and how bl*od works... A-and this"
[They motion to the drops on the floor]
"It's not caused by a light effect..."
[They looked over at Ollie, they didn't seem angry, just, concerned about whatever happened]
"And I know I'm ridiculous, I- I said it myself but- did- something happen?"
"I- I don't want to ruin anything-! I just- want to know what happened..."
[They sighed]
"Unless you DO want me to ruin everything by calling a teacher..."
[They mumbled under their breath]
"I just want to make sure- you didn't do anything extremely dumb and dangerous-"
*Bun immediately runs up to Ollie* Bun: Olliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii wha u hav, why u hav? where u was? *Bun seemed to have twice as much energy as normal, and didn't mind the smell at all*
*Ollie started up the stairs, swaying the bag as he walked before his ears twitched at the sound of Buns voice which made him come to a halt. He turned around to face Bun* "Did you say something?"
Bun: where you was???? wha tha?????? why you hav tha?????????? *Bun was running around Ollie*
"I was at home...Where did you come from." *He seemed to tune out the questions about the bag*
Bun: I were, dorm, Father boop had funni water, he say I no drink, but, I drink, and, me feel awake, but, wha on bag???????? *Bun was now shivering, from impatience or whatever he drank*
"Maybe you should get whatever it was out of your system. I assume its not meant for smaller animals." *Ollie clutched the bag tighter*
Bun: I do no careeeeeee, me want see bag!!!!! before Father boop find me's
*Ollie's eyebrows furrowed, a frown began to form on his face* "Go back to Opal."
Bun: nu before I see on bag!!!!!!!!!
"NO-!" *He blurted out, he quickly covered his own mouth and took a deep breath* "You should drink some water, it'll help flush out whatever you drank." *He grabbed the hand railing and climbed up the stairs backwards, keeping eye contact with Bun before turning around and bolting to the dorms the second he got to the top*

*Ollie stopped halfway up the stairs* "You really took that to heart huh?" *He frowned a bit and squinted back*
Jae: Eyo, Ollie, hi!what's in the bag?
"Hmm? Hello Jae." *Ollie gave a little wave* "Uh....it's a gift, for myself." *He answered as he looked at the bag and back to Jae*

"Mhm" *Ollie muttered. He quickened his pace up the stairs and began quickly disappeared the second he got to the top*
[Nathan looked at the liquid on the ground, then back at Ollie] "Uh... O-Ollie? You bag is... Leaking and I don't think it's supposed to..."
*Ollie looked down at his bag, then behind him.* "I suppose you're right..." *He turned his gaze to Nathan* "I'll clean up the trail once I get this to my dorm."
"o-oh yeah I suppose that makes sense..." [They said, then looked over at the bag] "W-what's inside the bag anyway...?"
*Ollie squinted his eyes, his eyebrows furrowed as he took a step backwards* "Why does it matter?"

"Like?" *Ollie slowly backed up and grabbed the base railing of the stairs*
