“You’re the little brother?”
“Yup.”
“Your dad verbally assaulted me the other night.”

“….oh?”
“Threatened creative things if I were to hurt Ripp.”
“Seriously??”

Buck wasn’t pleased to see that Ripp was still drinking a lot, but was glad to see him anyway. He even ate a rotten hot dog just so he didn’t have to spend any minute away from Ripp.
“Hey wait a second." Chester Gieke had poured the drinks. "Aren't you underage?”

“So this is Emo Kid. I hope you make him happy. I wasn’t able to.”

Buck was surprised to be admired by Ripp, as it was usually him seeing Ripp as amazing.


Ripp became best friends with the Picasos quite easily. He badly wanted to change his last name, but didn’t yet have the courage to ask.

(Ripp deadass went to chat with General Buzz online! His fun and social were going up so I assume it was good.)

By the end of his last year, Ripp’s grades couldn’t be said to be fantastic, but they still were an improvement. The Piascos even got him a cake just to celebrate that much, something Buzz would never have done.
And then it was birthday party time!

Ripp was thrilled that he could host it where he lived instead of having to go to Ophelia’s place. It was only a small gathering, but just having the closest people in his life surrounding him was all he needed.

Although the joyful atmosphere didn’t stop Ophelia from having a breakdown in the bathroom.
She stayed after the party to drive Ripp to La Fiesta Tech, but lingered behind for a minute as Ripp scrambled to shove things into her car.

“Thank you so much for taking Ripp in. You don’t know how much it means to him.”
“Aw, we’re happy to have him around!” said Jessica. “This place was too empty before!”
Ophelia raised an eyebrow looking around the small apartment that four people had to share, but kept going. “I kept telling him he could stay with me, but he never wanted to be around Olive for some reason. And then with the Smiths, money is tight…”
Ripp made a great impression on his first day.


He hadn’t been in his dorm an hour before he had his first meltdown.

Some students were studying Wuthering Heights, which reminded him of how single and lonely, and er frustrated in a certain way, he was.

Stella Terrano looked curiously at the boy. Most boys here turned up their noses at anything remotely lovey. But this one was overwhelmed with emotion.
