musetime[he didn't think he'd be so lucky to have a foster kid so soon into the program. he's got a good income, and maybe he hasn't found the girl of his dreams to settle down with, but he knows he can provide for a kid who needs it.
[they said it would take some adjusting. lance is willing to handle that. he's got keith in the car with him, on their way home from the office where they've finally met.]
So, your room is gonna be huge. You've got a big window, and plenty of book shelves to put stuff on.

Date: 2016-10-05 09:12 am (UTC)I really like dumplings... [He's gonna stare at the worn out laces of his shoes intently when he answers.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-05 05:00 pm (UTC)[there are a lot of different cultures that use those, he just wants to make sure he's getting the right stuff.]

Date: 2016-10-05 11:13 pm (UTC)[Keith actually didn't really think passed dumplings. He was actually pretty content with any kind of Asian dumpling.] I like any Asian dumpling. Any of them would be good.

no subject
Date: 2016-10-06 11:59 pm (UTC)I'd like that, please.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-08 08:49 pm (UTC)Alright. We'll get you home and settled in your room, and then head out.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-08 11:04 pm (UTC)[He's a surprisingly quiet kid, given that it was probably warned he'd be a bit of a problem. He seems to be less tense though, and that's probably some sort of improvement.
He just doesn't have a lot to say and seems content staring out the window to watch the scenery pass as they arrive back to what will be Keith's new home.]

Date: 2016-10-08 11:47 pm (UTC)[when they make it to the house, keith will find that it's an old farm house with quite a bit of character on a rather massive field and a huge barn-like structure in the back. trees line the field, and the driveway is long. there are stairs leading up to the front porch, where a little set of furniture sits. a few huge trees dot the yard close to the house.]
Alright, buddy. We're here.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-09 02:35 am (UTC)You live here? There's so much.
[This can't possibly be where he's living here now.]

Date: 2016-10-09 04:43 am (UTC)[he pulls up into his spot and kills the engine on the car.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-09 06:55 am (UTC)[He starts fussing with his seat belt.] Why do you ask?
no subject
Date: 2016-10-09 07:21 pm (UTC)Because, your room's the highest one in the house. You see that raised second on the right side? Looks kinda like a bell tower on a church, but bigger, with all the windows?
no subject
Date: 2016-10-09 09:58 pm (UTC)Right. He didn't answer.]
Yeah. I can see it. [He doesn't really mind if that's his room anyways. It's closer to the stars. Even if he can't reach them. Maybe there's a building with a room that can reach them somewhere.
He's gonna get out of the car with his bag of belongings.]

Date: 2016-10-09 11:00 pm (UTC)[it has bookshelves and a bay window and a lofted bed. lance loves this house.
[he takes him inside and up the stairs, pointing to where different rooms are as he gives him a quick tour on their way to his bedroom.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-10 08:36 am (UTC)Doesn't want to be a burden of any kind.] Do a lot of people live here?
[Does Lance live alone or was he going to have to meet other people too?]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-10 11:55 pm (UTC)[the last stairway leads right up into the room; it's a little out of the way, but there's no door.
[the stairwell comes up along a railing, and the room is pretty nice. there are big windows other than the bay one--he has window access on all three sides that aren't the entrance. the bed is lofted above bookshelves and a desk, and there's a railing on the ladder leading up to it. in place of a closet, he has a huge standing cabinet on the opposite wall from his bed.]
I call this room "The Lighthouse." And it's all yours.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-11 04:56 am (UTC)[Keith puts his bag down so he can run over to look out one of the windows for a moment before looking around the room. There was so much space and-]
I don't need a room this big though. I don't have a lot of stuff...
[He has enough clothes to be comfortable, but only a handful of items.]
no subject
Date: 2016-10-11 05:23 am (UTC)[he puts his hands on his hips.]
You'll have time to grow into it.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-11 09:49 pm (UTC)"What if I'm not here for that long?"
Of course he doesn't ask, but he hasn't generally been in homes long enough to celebrate all those kind of things. Or they just never bothered to celebrate those things. Do people normally celebrate anniversaries of these kind of things?]
Do you think so?
no subject
Date: 2016-10-20 07:50 am (UTC)[lance reaches out and puts a reassuring hand on his shoulder.]
You're a good kid.
no subject
Date: 2016-10-21 06:55 am (UTC)[Lance can't possibly know he's a good kid or not. The other people that took him in didn't think he was at the very least.
Also, the smol is hungry.]
