I've already covered Soo-Bin and Cedar on my own page, but here's something about how Mateo views the rest of your kids. Beyond thinking of her as excessively "edgy" and combative for his tastes, Mateo probably has a mostly neutral opinion of Callie, unless he notices her semi-criminal tec...

Thanks for reminding me about that sentence fragment! Anyways, here's Mateo's side of the relationship. Cedar: Mateo probably appreciates Cedar's artistic talents, and may have asked her for drawings at some point. He definitely likes her efforts to help other people. And he appreciates people notic...

Put in Mateo de Guzmán in for MUN and the Board Game Club (he's planning to found one if none exist already).

Laurence didn’t mind the his colleagues unkemptness, or even the general lack of warmth. It might not have been the customary response, but then the time for normality was long past. He removed his coat and boots carefully, slipping into a cleaner set of dress shoes quickly afterwards. Compared to A...

Characters: Theo Walterson (Afterlife/Meanwhile threads only)

Theo trailed behind them quietly, as he was used to doing. He simply watched them, occasionally letting his eyes focus on some familiar facet of their gait or their expression and letting his mouth turn upwards from the sheer pleasure of being with them. He had forgotten what it was like, just being...

Theo wished she hadn’t asked that question. It was the right question to ask, yes, but even so it hurt to be reminded of that morning. Not just because he died, surprisingly. But also because it hurt to look back at just what had happened, to be reminded of just what he had said to Camilla. Seeing h...

Laurence Walterson was a natural optimist, but even he found his hopes dimming as he drove in yet another slow circle around Frazier’s Glen. He should have arrived half an hour ago, honestly; the Ogilvies lived in the same neighbourhood. But every time he approached, his doubts compelled him to wait...

It was unnerving, listening to Camilla stumble so clumsily on her words; she had always been so calm before. But Drew being there helped, in a way. Even if this was a mistake, at least he wouldn’t be alone in making one. Still, Drew reaching out so physically was reassuring, and he felt a little cal...

When Theo argued that nearly everyone would go to heaven when they died, he hadn’t expected to be proven right so quickly. Although, admittedly, a table at a fast-food restaurant would perhaps not quite the entrance he had expected. It was not a particularly calming environment; the buffet tables sm...

Efforts concluded.

All Theo could do now was watch and resign himself to the fate he had always known was his. Just as with Drew, and with Declyn, and with Diego, when he needed to act, all he could do was play the observer. It was ironic, in a way; a kind of cosmic joke at his expense. All he was left with were his t...

In his own mind, the warning signs finally came together. The questions about the afterlife, the blind hope that they would find the others, the endless duties Camilla buried herself under. Could he have prevented this? Probably not; he would have only died faster without her. But still, it was nice...

Theo braced himself for an outpouring of vitriol, for his failings to be outlined in excruciating detail. But in the end, his fears were unwarranted. With Camilla's assurances of forgiveness, he felt himself getting calmer. He even found himself chuckling sadly at the sheer obviousness of her commen...
