Ice cream is good any day of the week, 365 days a year, I'll have you know

[Although it did give him a better idea.]

What about hot chocolate, then? Something a little more December-y. How much of my debt would that pay off?

[Be quiet Elliot you're getting sweets.]

Ice cream is delicious, but it's cold enough here without me intentionally putting cold things in my body.

Hm... I'd have to calculate out your interest, but at least a small fraction. Either way, sounds good to me.

[Wow...Crow is never getting out this debt is he]

Oh! I like hot chocolate!

Going...going...and SOLD for the hot chocolate! Thank you for coming ladies and gents I'll find us a good place to grab it

[Wait...He reads Rean's text again.]

A small fraction? The hell is your interest rate... Word of advice, Elliot. Don't get into debt with this guy. He'll buy you a coffee and hold it over your head for months even though you didn't even know each other

Oh, Elliot? Elliot's account is interest-free. He's not competition, after all 😇

Aww, thanks Rean! That's sweet of you!

I'll be sure not to get myself too deep into debt!

Wait, what? What do you mean Elliot's is interest-free? Is this a bank or a loan shark?

I'm sure you'll be fine, Elliot.

And as for you, Crow, that's for me to know and you to find out ✨

....He is definitely a loan shark. Sorry Crow.

[REAN METHINKS YOU ARE PICKING ON THE LEGGY BIRD. Not that he minds, it's hilarious.]

Who'd have thought that cute face could be so ruthless...

...Cute?

[THERES SOME TYPING, AND THEN DELETES.

NOPE NOT TOUCHING THIS ONE]

[Sorry guys, one out of three of them is shameless.]

Yeah! You lure people in with those eyes and your smile and make them think you're just some sweet college kid trying to get by then You're out for a poor old man's blood

[He's still not sure he gets it. He even glances over into the mirror on the back of his dorm room door to examine his own face, but doesn't see anything particularly "cute" about it. Ah, well, it doesn't really seem worth arguing.]

If you say so... and hey, now. Blood's worth a pretty penny on the market these days, or so I hear, and this college kid has to get by somehow. Money just doesn't come as easily as it used to!

[If your self-esteem was just a little more there....well, no matter. Crow'll take up the job of reminding you you're actually hot.]

I'll have to step up my game I guess....maybe SIGH Waking up earlier

Wait THAT'S how he's been swiping jobs from you??

[CROW YOU MADE IT SOUND LIKE HE WAS SOME EVER STALKING VULTURE]

Yeah. I get up pretty early and scan the job postings for anything that came up overnight, and then I check again after breakfast. Other than that, I just check sometimes because I happen to be on my phone anyway, but it's not like I'm going in under him and plotting to ruin his life.
