Misto finally returned his gaze to the other. "I'm sorry," he murmured. "But it's still not pity to want to help."

Tugger shifted a little, thrusting his hands into his pockets, though wincing slightly as the action pulled on his shoulder again, "I guess it don't feel much different." a pause, "Though mebbe that ain't your fault. Ain't nothin' t'be done though."

Misto bit the inside of his lip and nodded. "True enough." Though he wished there was anything that could be done.

Tugger scuffed his toe on the floor of the biology lab rather than look at Mistoffelees, "Yeah well, bin' like that long as I can remember. Mac does what he can, an' my other brother got out the house first chance he had." a touch of bitteness crept into Tugger's tone then, "I'm sorry about the assignment, I didn't know it was gonna take so long t'see the nurse. There was some kit in there throwin' up."

Misto considered him for a moment and his posture began to relax, though his tail remained wrapped around his leg. "Well, it should be alright. O-one assignment shouldn't hurt too much."

Tugger sighed, "First assignment in a while I bothered t'do any work for. I was actually feelin' good about it.

Misto bit the inside of his lip. "And you did well too," he said. "I was able to use the diagram at any rate, so your work was used..."

"But he cut whatever grade we would've got?"

Misto nodded. "Yeah. He did. But at least it's a grade and not a fail."

"I guess that's somethin'," Tugger agreed, "prob'ly not what you're used t'gettin', but mebbe' still good f'me."

Misto nodded and shrugged, looking away. "Well... I can probably deal with that."

Tugger arched an eyebrow, "Probably? Look, at least do me the credit of bein' honest, since y'know all my secrets now an' al."

Misto shrugged. "It shouldn't affect the overall grade too much as long as the rest are actually done, so yeah, I can probably deal with it. My... compulsive need to get good grades is hardly a secret just..." he shrugged again. "Besides, at this point if all it took to get my uncle to talk to me was good grades it would have happened."

Tugger frowned, "Your uncle?"

Misto shrugged yet again, much more uncomfortable now that they were talking about him. "I live with him and well... it's never really worked. He hasn't... physically ever hurt me, so it's nothing really just that he, well, I always kind of hoped that if I did well enough it would make up for other things." Which was hardly something he had ever mentioned to anyone else, but if Tugger could admit things to him, he could return the favor, right? If it could be called a favor.
