Text Cut: *pets him*

See? That was so not fair. Garrick didn't deserve such treatment, as far as she could tell, he always did what was told to. Most of the time. Which made this whole thing entirely unfair. To both her and Garrick.

There was nothing she could say. First, it was family stuff, and it didn't really concern her. Second, she still wouldn't know what to say, because she's never dealt with something similar. She ought to be lucky for that, but the circumstances kind of made her wish she could have some words of wisdom or whatever. She settled for petting Sophocles some more.

WHAT?!

Well, that was just excellent. Technically, it was Garrick's father the one who gets to decide who's good enough? Technically, yes, but in reality we know that's not exactly true. Still, though. Was this bound to happen again in the near future? Possibly. Sigh. "Yeah...," she was thoroughly focused on the wall in front of her now, but yes, she was upset, except..., "...it's not really your fault, though." But he still was a little to blame, he shouldn't listen to what his father says. Not about him, anyway.

But yeah it was a big deal. And then she said that and he looked up. He knew he looked all vulnerable and pitiful and stuff, but whatever. Looking directly into those beautiful eyes of hers he leaned in and in a soft voice said, "I didn't make that decision. Dad says it's true. He said it. Said I'm not good enough. I reckon he must be right. I can tell you're upset with me. And you have every right to be. And I proved him right." And he did say so. Those weren't tears. There was just something in his eyes.
