Keefe: Foster, what's god?

Sophie: We're not going to get into that...

Saph: WHAT HO, PERCY!!

Everyone: .....

Saph: Sorry, that literally just came into my head.

Fitz: So, are we going to be doing that "reading our lives" thing?

Sophie: *buries her face in her hands* *grumbles* Great.

Tam: *looks between Fitz and Sophie, who are not doing coupley things*  I'm sorry, did I miss something? Weren't you two...*makes finger quotes* "not dating"? 

Saph: *reaches behind her back* Why yes, Tammy, you did miss something. You missed a couple of things....*slams Legacy on the table* WHILE YOU WERE GONE!!!

Tam: .....

Linh: *softly* Please don't hit him with the book.

Saph: Linh, darling, I would never. 

Biana: So if you're not going to hit him with it, are we going to read it?

Saph: *finger guns at Biana* Bingo.

Keefe: You know, I'm just here to point out, we could do both....

Tam: He's got a point. We hit Keefe with the book, then we chill and read. *remembers what's actually IN legacy* Or just chill and not read.

Dex: *leans to whisper to Linh* Since when does Tam Song chill?

Linh: *whispers* He's been a bit different since he got back....

Saph: dOn'T REMIND ME!!!!! I'VE BEEN TRAUMATIZED ENOUGH, I DON'T NEED TO BE WORRYING ABOUT MY CHILD ANYMORE THAN I ALREADY AM!!!

Tam: Hold on--

Saph: Yes, you are my child, and YES, we are going to read Legacy, so EVERYONE READ!!

Everyone: ....

Saph: Please?

Everyone but Tam: *picks up Legacy*

Tam: *hold up his hands* You know, I really think I'm good!

Saph: *taps her chin* Tell you what: you can skip all the parts with you in it, including your pov chapter. Deal?

Tam: *freezes* Wait, what?

Biana: Tam has his own chapter? *flips to the end to find it*

Saph: Yep, he does. It was very insightful. 

Tam: *tugs on his bangs* Great. 

Keefe: Aw, don't worry, Bangs Boy. Me and Fitzy both got one--now it's your turn!

Sophie: Now you know how it feels. 

Saph: Oh hush. Now everyone, GET READING!!

Tam: *flipping past his beginning convo with Sophie* Skipping that paaaaart...

Keefe: *offended* Forkle has had all this cool stuff and he didn't tell us??? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!!!!

Dex: Yeah! Think of all the problems we could've solved with this!

Sophie: Like what? 

Dex: Shush, I'm reading. 

Tam: *muttering* Oh lovely, I love when people talk about me potentially betraying my friends after I gave up my freedom for them. 

Saph: Yeah, I wasn't too happy with that either...

Sophie: Well, you did kinda do the same thing to Keefe, ya know...

Saph: Those situations could not have been more different, and Tam was also the first to accept Keefe when he got back. 

Biana: Awwww, look at the sweet Sokeefe moments...

Dex: Speaking of which, we've made a Sophitz react, but not a Sokeefe one. Are we getting one of those in the future?

Saph: *shrugs* Honestly, probably not. Aside from Bam and Marelinh, I'm kinda done with shipping in this series. 

Fitz: *mumbles* Thank goodness...

Saph: What was that Fitzy?

Fitz: *quickly* Nothing. 

Tam: Oh great, more people calling me a traitor! Love you too, Sandor. 

Linh: You okay, Tammy?

Keefe: When is he ever okay?

Saph: A valid point, but also not the time.

Biana: Oo, here's where we come in!!

Everyone: *reads about Team Valiant*

Keefe: *whistles* Foster's getting called out...

Sophie: *indignantly* For what??

Saph: *mumbles* For focusing entirely on your own problems and not paying attention to how any of your friends are doing. 

Sophie: *offended* That's not true!

Fitz and Keefe: *offended on her behalf*

Dex: *coughs awkwardly*

Saph: *shrugs* Just saying. 

Linh: Sources?? I've never heard of those before...

Saph: *snorts* Yeah, neither have we. 

Dex: *raises his hand* Can I just be the first to say that none of this stuff makes any sense? 

Everyone else: Agreed. 

*Several pages later*

Linh: *flipping through the book and looking uncomfortable* I'm going to give Sophie and Fitz some privacy here...

Tam: *holds the book away from him in disgust* Good, cuz they just kissed. 

Fitz: *mutters something unintelligible* 

Sophie: *turns bright red and looks away*

Keefe: *reminiscing* Man, those cookies were good...

*More pages later* 

Tam: I'm honestly starting to wonder if there's any actual point to me reading this. I mean, so far it's just Sophitz drama and Sophie refusing to have an allergic reaction. 

Saph: Which she eventually has. 

Keefe: *gasps* Uh, spoilers!! 

Biana: Keefe, you were there. 

Keefe: Yeah, but maybe I forgot!

Dex: Everyone shush, I am trying to read. 

Biana: Sorry. 

Everyone: *continues reading*

Tam: Oh look, a traumatizing conversation with my sister. Skip!

Linh: *concerned* Tammy, I'm starting to worry about you...

Saph: You're not alone. 

Biana: Nope. *casts a worried glance at Tam* Definitely not. 

Keefe: Hey look, Diana! 

Saph: *facepalms*

Fitz: *mutters* Where did that come from? 

Saph: THANK YOU!!!!!! FREAKING THANK YOU!!!

Tam: Oooookay, I'm skipping to where stuff actually happens. 

Saph: That'd be around...page 500?

Tam: *flips to around there* *reads for a bit* Oh wonderful, even Sophie's doubting me now. 

Saph: *mutters* Nevermind, wrong page...

Keefe: *whispers to Saph* You'd better not let him get to our trip to London...

Saph: *sighs* Yeah, you're right. *snaps her fingers* *all the books disappear* Okay everyone, that's enough reading!!

Dex: You're saying that?

Saph: Hilarious. 

Linh: Wait, how are we going to know everything that happened?

Saph: Lucky for you, I read the whole thing! Aaaaaaaaand I remember virtually nothing, which is why I have my own copy! *holds up Legacy* Okay let's see...

Dex: *whispers to Fitz* This should be good...

Saph: Okay so basically, Sophie's inflicting is "better", Oralie is her mom--

Everyone: wHAT???

Saph: Yep, and boy do I have some words on the subject, but moving on....uh, Gisela got away again, which, by the way, how did you guys not NOTICE HER??? Did she just mosey on out of there with her very visible hands tied??

Biana: *shrugs* She just sorta....vanished. 

Dex: *frowning* Well you got me. By all accounts it doesn't make sense.

Saph: ....Nice reference Dexy.

Dex: I didn't—

Fitz: Actually, yeah, how did she get away???

Linh: Maybe we were all just really distracted?

Everyone: .....

Saph: Congratulations, Shannon, you broke your characters. 

Fitz: Okay, see you keep mentioning that word....

Saph: *waves him aside* Another time, Fitzy. Anyway....*consults her book* Oh yeah, Glimmer.

Linh: *mutters* Oh no, not her...

Everyone: *stares at Linh*

Linh: *notices everyone staring* What?

Sophie: Nothing...

Saph: Okay, show of hands, who does not trust Glimmer?

Everyone but Tam and Biana: *raises their hands*

Fitz: Biana, you trust her?? But she's part of the Neverseen!

Sophie: She bound Tam against his will!

Keefe: She helped do weird stuff to me!!

Tam: *mutters* Thank you, I really needed all those reminders....

Biana: *firmly* If Tam trusts her, I trust her. *turns to Tam* Why do you trust her though? 

Tam: *tugs on his bangs* I don't know, I just...do.

Dex: Did you read her shadowvapor?

Tam: No.

Dex: .......Yeah, he's broken. 

Keefe: Soooooo, are we gonna read Tam's POV chapter or what?

Saph: That is up to the Shadow Boy.

Tam: Nope. Absolutely not. 

Keefe: Aw, come on Bangs Boy! Fitz and I had to go through it!

Tam: Fitz's was getting stuck in a chandelier!!! How is that a fair comparison???

Saph: It was hilarious though...

Linh: Tam doesn't have to share his chapter if he doesn't want to. 

Tam: Thank you Linh. 

Keefe: *pouts* 

Saph: Okay, with that settled, are there any further questions regarding Legacy?

Everyone: Nope.

Saph: Oh yeah, and Alvar's dead. Probably. Maybe. Most likely. Who knows. 

Fitz: *mutters* Finally. 

Biana: *shuffles awkwardly*

Everyone: ....

Dex: I'm honestly not sure how to feel about this.  

Saph: Yeah, it's a toughie. Oh, actually, I have a question--is there a single one of you who doesn't have PTSD?

Everyone: Nope.

Saph: Yep, that's what I thought. Okay, let's wrap it up before this gets any more depressing--say bye everyone, and we can go do...something else!!

Everyone: BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saph: And only 47 days till Unlocked!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow. It's been a while. 

I started this back in like...April. And I just now had the motivation to finish it. So....yeah, hope this wasn't too disappointing/depressing XD

(And yes, Sticky, I promise I'm working on that Siri one, I haven't forgotten <3)

Poor Tam though, like seriously, that boy needs a hug. A really long hug.
