Laughter burst from Will's mouth as he realized Apollo just recited a haiku on the spot. Beautiful. That was beautiful. And thought about talking to Austin and Kayla about modifying the couplet's curse into a haiku curse. That could be fun!
But apparently homework with Naomi was the same as homework with Apollo. Parents. You could only distract them so much with 'I love you's' and 'can I have a glass of water?' before you actually had to continue with your work. That realization was actually kind of a lovely moment, viewing Apollo more as an actual parental figure than an object of worship from afar, or a Lester who needed to be fretted after. Right then. Will took the syringe again, and concentrated, trying to feel the symptoms swirling inside.
"Pustules...no, not quite right. Not smallpox. " Which he was ever so grateful. " .....blisters....warts......HPV?" Will gave Apollo a look. "I made a mistake and created HPV?" Okay, it was better than smallpox. He stopped again, and tried to concentrate on the emotion. " It definitely feels different than the rage and anger I felt before. More possessive?"
