Once it's on the paper // mandatory s/hp meeting // we feel better

[jacob w.c.]

WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — An easy smile came to Jacob's maw as Ivylee bounded in, looking rather excited about the meeting. He was sure he would've been about the same way when he was little. He probably would've enjoyed his Babbo's meetings more if they hadn't been so concerned with who was stealing what or who needed to die and more to do with fun events and trying to help people. Despite growing up in the business, Jacob knew he wasn't suited for that type of work. He wasn't even sure if he was suited for this type of work. He was just a doctor, that was all he really wanted to be. "Hi Ivylee! 'S good ta' see ya'. Ya' can take somethin' ta' eat if ya' want. Jus' make sure ta' leave some for everyone else," he instructed before his attention was drawn to Cry. At first, he thought it'd be fine as she grabbed her mug and went to a corner of the room but then he heard her words. Jacob took a deep breath as he felt frustration bubble in his chest and ring in his head. "Cry, if ya' don' wanna' take this seriously n' if ya' don' wanna' be 'ere, you're free ta' leave. I ain't gonna' put up with this all meetin'. I feel like I've tried ta' be fair ta' ya' n' patient. Ya' can leave but when ya' walk out tha' entrance, ya' won't be keepin' your position n' ya' won't be welcomed back. I called ya' 'ere because I have some concerns for the well-bein' of Snowbound. If ya' don' care, then ya' shouldn' be 'ere." Jacob tried to keep his voice steady but irritation leaked into it as he looked towards the raven. He hated having to speak up about anything but he knew he couldn't just let people walk all over him.

Finally, Izuku arrived and he smiled to his apprentice even though he knew he wouldn't be able to see it. His irritation seemed to fade as he gathered up a little plate of pastries. He didn't know what he'd want exactly but then he moved forward and set it in front of him, trying to make as much noise as possible as he did so. "'Ere, Izuku. I figured ya'd want somethin'. Do ya' want water or anythin' ta' drink? I'll wait ta' really start things until more people get 'ere so I don' mind helpin'," he offered. —A GREAT HONOR TO HOLD YOU UP
