Lucas pursed his lips in though and ruffled his hair as Indigo finished speaking. "I don't think my parents would necessarily know if letterhead...but the more official and REAL it looks...the better, in my opinion. They have no reason to think I'd lie to them because....as far as they know, I've never done so before." He sighed a little and let his shoulders slump once more. "Which is another thing...a tiny...TINY part of me....feels so wrong about even doing all of this rather than being upfront but...they won't LISTEN to me, you know?" And he was TIRED of his words falling on deaf ears. It was like living with people who didn't even know him anymore, in a way.

He shook his head at Indi's question. "Nah. I don't think so. Again, they have no reason not to believe me. I just...need to become a really good actor...fast.." he wasn't terrible but he had to keep a straight face with all the questions he'd get from them when he began to receive all these rejections. "I think I should tell them I'm only applying to three schools...so when I don't get into any...they'll just be annoyed I didn't apply to more." He shrugged.

And then, he had another gut-wrenching thought. "Indigo...will Violet think this is a bad idea?" Would she think he was a bad person for lying????
