 This was not a breakfast that Perry would approve of, but thankfully, for Dick, the pair had returned to their respective families. Perry's family was more suspicious of his absence than Dick's, but Perry was experienced in the art of convincing, and had no trouble dispelling his father's assumptions.

-After waking from a short but deep sleep, Perry covered his previously bare tattoos with a checked shirt, then slid on some ripped blue jeans. Despite being utterly disinterested in working on Tex Smith's dilapidated property, he hoped that these jeans would be viewed favourably by his father. Perry downed his breakfast in his usual rushed and slapdash fashion, then hurriedly left the house without a word to his family. He took his guitar with him, which he was almost as attached to as his partner in crime. Admittedly, Perry had grown used to having Dick by his side, making witty jokes and showing off to Perry. However, this was a feeling that Perry knew well by now, having iterated through many "best friends".

+A cool draft blew through the cracked timber walls of the dormitory. A foreign mix of body odour, rotting wood and mould permeated through the dark room. It was now pitch black outside, and the only light in Dick and Perry's temporary shelter was a dangling yellow light bulb which Dick had already come close to punching several times.
