A. REDBRIGHT INSTITUTE: CLASSROOM

It's after hours for Apollo and he couldn't be happier, even though the feeling of exhaustion he could do without. While it's a job he loved he could definitely do with a vacation anyway.

He's currently struggling to erase the top of his chalkboard where a taller student wrote out the answers. Smart kid, but liked to quietly pick on Apollo for his size anyway, and he's close to stomping into the nearest library and grabbing a stepladder.

B. ON THE TUBE.

Apollo has a better idea of where to go for this and that, thanks to it being a few months since his move. He's currently sitting in one of the trains, coming back from Harrow, though there's one problem.

He fell asleep, earphones in, cheek pressed into the silver rail and leaving an opening for anything to be taken. Genius.

C. MISC tell me whatever and we'll do it. brackets are awesome

Americans do.

He wakes up abruptly when the overhead light flickers, somehow waking him up from falling asleep. On accident. It doesn't take him long to notice somebody is sitting beside him. With his wallet. ... He practically knows this guy is eyeing his name. Everyone does.

"Uh," Apollo starts. "That's mine."

[falsify]

"I'm aware." He doesn't look at Apollo, just looks through the cards in his wallet for anything of interest, but it just seems like the standard fare. "You know, you should really be more careful. Pickpockets on public transport are a real problem."

[apolly]

Yeah, Apollo's just a guy.

"I know, it's my fault. I work two jobs and I had to pull an all nighter because of it." He ironically had a packet of coffee in his bag but it's not like he could make a cup on the train.

..... He then finally shuffles through his bag, just to definitely make sure nothing was stolen. "Man, how long was I out?"

[falsify]

Boring.

"No idea." Eames sighs and half-assedly drops Apollo's wallet in the vague area of his now open bag. "I got on a couple of stops ago, you seemed pretty out of it."

[apolly]

... "A couple of stops ago!?"

His head whips up to the lighted signs, and immediately relaxes once he sees the train hasn't reached his stop yet. It was such a chore waiting for the next train to take him back once he messed up. And he actually knows from experience.

Once the wallet's back where it belongs, he closes the flap immediately and pulls it closer to himself.

"Thank you for... looking after my stuff. I guess you kind of did in a weird way."
