Gave me something that I didn't have. [ closed ]
WHO Lupin Anderson (insertdadjoke), Sirius Anderson (sociopapathic).
WHAT In an effort to let Abel get his own bearings after breaking off from the Reapers' control, Cain makes new identities for himself, Abel and Holly and enrolls into college with them. Hijinks.
WHEN Start of a semester. Mid-2020s.
WHERE Somewhere-Somethin' U.
It seemed they had arrived first. They didn't have any last minute business to take care of, or any parents to wish them off or insist on roadtripping it instead of flying like anyone with common sense would. They all had each other, and they all had a vague plan: survive through and graduate college. Some kind of bonding experience that would acclimate Abel to the inner workings of living people around his supposed-age. As many things were, it was Cain's idea — something to help straighten Abel's head out after the mindfuck that was breaking through the shell that the Reapers had stuffed Cain's brother inside for the better part of three millennia.
While it might not have had all that much common sense to it, there was a logical thread. Cain was just glad his brother and niece had gone for it eagerly enough, something to make sure they all stayed together even when Holly was rapidly growing up and soon to outpace her father and uncle. At least she had a better idea of how to act on her own in public; Cain wasn't too worried about how she would get by, although he made a mental note to pull her aside and nip any problems in the bud later on.
"I'm taking this room!" Cain said from the upper hall. It was small but had the air of being well-used over the years and there were no other beds that meant he would be sharing with unwanted frat brothers. He peered into the one next door and grinned over to his brother. "This one looks good for you. What do you think?"

no subject
Cain tilted his head back to Abel to note that he heard it, but refrained from further comment. It was understandable enough, and Cain wasn't going to drop Abel into the deep end of the pool without support. It looked like whoever owned the pickup truck was ready for college life, as they had brought plenty of their own amenities from home in the bed of the truck. A couple of trash bags presumably filled with clothes and bedding, a dresser and even a desk. Cain couldn't help but grin at it. This was definitely going to be an experience.
"Hey there!" he said once the driver had exited the vehicle. It was a fairly average-looking guy with brown hair and a T-shirt and jeans. Practical, if not overly attached to his own things. "Welcome. You one of our roomies?" He thumbed over his shoulder toward Abel to indicate his brother as part of the deal.
