"Lennon Jay, you have five seconds to open your mouth, or your brother is spending every night for the next week in that closet," Cybele warned.

"No! Leave him..." Lennon whined, doing as he was told.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:19 am

Cybele chuckled darkly, placing the spoon in Lennon's mouth.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:24 am

Lennon cried out, pulling away, looking annoyed as he pulled on the cuffs again.

Cybele shook her head when Lennon started to fight. "Well that's one night in the closet for Montgomery...."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:30 am

Lennon froze, whimpering. "I...I'm sorry...not Monte...please..." He begged.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:32 am

"If you behave, I'll think about it," Cybele replied, holding the lighter to the spoon again.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:38 am

Lennon nodded, letting out a sob as he did so, not wanting to get hurt, but not wanting Monte to be punish for something he didn't do.

"Quiet," Cybele said firmly. "I don't wanna hear any of that."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:43 am

Lennon quickly shut his mouth, then took a deep breath to try and calm down, forgetting for a second that she needed his mouth open.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:45 am

Cybele let him take his time to calm himself while she heated the spoon, knowing the longer he took, the hotter the spoon would be.

Lennon looked up at her, mimicking Adam's usual disapproving frown.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:50 am

Cybele just smirked at him the same way she had Adam.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:54 am

Lennon shivered, seeing the frown didn't bother her at all. "You...you did it to dad..." He realised.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:56 am

"More times than I can count," Cybele answered, as if they were talking about the weather.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:00 am

"Why...?" Lennon asked sadly, trying not to tear up again.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:03 am

Cybele rolled her eyes. "Why does it matter?" she asked.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:06 am

"Because...it's mean..." Lennon mumbled. "You used to be nice..."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:09 am

"Sometimes people change," said Cybele. "That's life, you'll learn that when, if you ever, grow up."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:13 am

"Course I'll grow up..." Lennon said. "Why wouldn't I?"

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:15 am

"Your father never did," Cybele replied. "and you might as well be a carbon copy of him."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:19 am

"He is so grown up!" Lennon snapped at her, pulling at the cuffs again, angry.

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:21 am

Cybele shook her head. "Well there went your brother's chances of getting out."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:23 am

Lennon hung his head again, whimpering. "I-I'm sorry..."

Subject: Re: The Past is Another Land Mon Jan 23, 2012 7:25 am

Cybele shook her head, finally moving the spoon away from the lighter. "Open."
