Obviously. The "seventh year" also realized that while all this time he had accused Aries as being the clinging and dependent one...it was actually himself who manifested such an atypical Flamsteed personality. Talk about embarrassing. While he was understanding and downright proud of his brother, he also could not help it that the air tasted bitter whenever he thought about the term ahead.

So...he wasn't. So there.

Stubborn and petty? Such unexpected behaviors of one Atlas Leonel Flamsteed.

And he certainly wasn't here attempting to restock on some comfort sweets as a result of this unwonted sadness. No, it was only because his stash was nothing but wrappers after all of the living out of their backpacks he and Aries had done all summer as they traveled around Europe and dipped overseas to just a few places where dad had some contacts. None of this, he realized now, had helped at all with his codependency. With only a couple of weeks in which he could work at Wiseacre's, his ladybug leather wallet was feeling like someone had cast a Featherlight Charm on it compared to what had been at the start of summer. The memories were worth it, he tried reassuring himself, but it was just another reminder of the thing he was not thinking about.

Sugar Quills first.

He got that summer time, summer time happiness.. Freddie separated from his twin again to restock on his goodies. The sweets that matched his usual mood. This season in his Gobstones matches were on a roll, having won the last match, he had a good feeling they'd place in the top spot or at least top 3. It was a great break from his parents usual get togethers and trips. He loved their summer traditions, but some variety was nice all the same.

Anyways, Freddie stepped into the shop fresh coins jingling in his pocket as he went to survey the usual spot when... He felt a familiar flip inside of him. His buddy! His energy refilled instantly at the first sight of any friend, especially a Squishy sight.. but this was slightly different this flip. He felt happy but a little nervous... Shaking his head, he couldn't break tradition for a little hesitation. So stepping as casual as possible Freddie walked up behind Atlas covering his eyes from behind, "Guess who?"
