[/url]xx❝ Just an update! Recently started a new job so I've been kind of ... frazzled. I'm off tomorrow so I plan on catching up with some of these requests tonight and tomorrow! ❞ x xx x [/url]xx❝ Sorry for the wait! ❞ x xx x xx
[/url] __) _______ Yeah, Lady Crazy could say anything she wanted, but there was no way he was staying with all of those weirdos--minus Elliot. His taxi would be here any moment, after all, and he didn't have anything particularly...nice to add to the discussion they were bound to have in the morning or when more people arrived. No matter, he wasn't staying. Noooo waaaay. Pathetic how terrible his resolve was. All it took was a squeeze of his hand and a kiss on the cheek to change his mind completely. ❝...Alright.❞His voice was smaller than usual and he nearly lost his balance walking back into the house after her with how nervous he was feeling. It really was late, after all. What harm would it do to stay one more night? Yeah. Just one more.He kicked off his shoes, peeled away his coat and plopped back onto the bed in the guest room he had before. Then he curled up into a ball and flipped through his phone for a bit, trying to find some inspiration for a poem he planned to write in the morning, before falling asleep.
【WEARING • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC: Cooking dinner. Whoop.】 " . . . So, where will you go? I will more than likely head home after this, but I want to make sure you are situated . . . " Feeling queasy again, Madeline gripped the handle of her overnight bag tightly and pressed her lips together. Where to go, where to go... Her shoulders slouched. She should check on her mother...But she was still feeling too cowardly to do so. With a deep sigh, she closed her eyes again and winced at the sting of fatigue. "I'll be fine. I'll be heading home, too...Actually I should hurry to catch one of the last buses, I think. Have a good night, Quin. Sorry for everything." Madeline didn't look at her, but as she stepped forward, she waved slightly to the dark-haired girl behind before stepping out of the lobby. Her heart thudded painfully in her chest and she took another breath. Cold mountain air filled her lungs. They needed to spend some time apart. She wouldn't cling. Not to anyone. Her steps to the bus stop were long, quick strides, making it look as though she had somewhere important to be. She supposed she could technically say she was heading to work, if anyone asked...not that they would. It wasn't a secret to her that not very many people liked interacting with her. Even strangers. That's why Quin was... No. Nope. Nope. Nope. The bus ride to Reuben's was long and exhausting. Though she had nearly managed to doze off, a loud and obnoxious conversation of some girl being her had woken her up. Even she wasn't that rude. When she arrived at Reuben's all of the lights were shut off and the entire place smelled of alcohol. Instead of waking the multi-colored haired boy, she took an uncomfortable place on the old couch in his living room and curled up into the stale cushions. Before drifting off to sleep, she thought of Temperance and buried her face into her arms further, trying to resist the ridiculous and inexplicable desire to cry.
【WEARING ... • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC】 Maybe she shouldn't have come after all, but to be friends you had to be ... comfortable with these things, right? Right? ... Instead she found herself just kind of staring awkwardly into the water and then lifting her face to observe various other things around the springs. The steam was already overheating her and her body was a bit shaky with nerves and unfortunately hunger as well. Instead of chickening out though, she knelt down at the edge of the springs and slipped her toes into the water. The sensation made her shudder and crinkle her nose. She made sure to keep her eyes on furthest side to Quin and inch just a bit deeper into the water. The thought of going into the springs and coming up with a wet towel did not please her, as she'd like something warm to walk back to the lockers with, so she timidly slipped it off and submerged herself fully into the springs. ... " This is nice . . . " "Mhm..." Silence. Shit. Her toes curled under the water and she stretched her back out against the edge with a quiet yawn. The sky was dark, and she could just barely see the stars. "It's, um. Getting late." Shit she was getting nervous for some reason. It was weird, but she felt...compelled to say something. Weird indeed, as she already accepted that she did not have strong feeling for Quin. She felt sick again, but... This was too nice. In a hotsprings. Alone. With the sun disappearing and the stars coming out. Agh, her stomach. She brought her knees up to her chest and rested her chin on top of them. "We should get going, if we're going to get home before too late."
[/url] __) _______ While he ate, he listened idly to the conversation going on, wanting no actual part it in. He wasn't exactly sure yet if he thought they were all crazy, or if he just needed more time to register everything and take it in. That was, until Lady Crazy had her outburst about them not being real. Once she finished and the pink haired dude started up, Theodore dabbed the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, politely, and stood up. ❝Well, I think I've heard enough. Thank you for the invitation. Good luck to you all.❞His voice was sincere, but his expression was flat. He pushed his chair back in and walked back up to the guest room to grab his shoes, coat and cell phone, acknowledging the few missed calls from his father. It was already getting late so taking a bus was...not going to happen. He wasn't going to ask his dad to send for him, either, so instead, he called for a taxi and stepped outside of the marvelous residence and into the cold to wait for it to arrive.
【WEARING • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC: Cooking dinner. Whoop.】" I think that I might like to take a dip in the hot springs for a while. We are not set to leave for a few hours yet, so we have time. . . Would you like to join me? " Getting in a hot spring with Quin did...not seem like a great idea. Especially considering their new 'friendship' agreement. She wasn't too sure if...well... She shook her head. There was no way she was going skiing alone, though. If she took a moment to ponder the worse case-scenarios, she'd rather drown than be buried under an avalanche. ...On second thought, she probably shouldn't think that way. It would ruin her after a while. Just a few seconds had passed before she gave an answer. "I guess so. For a bit, at least." And so she finished the rest of her meager breakfast and stood up to head to the springs with Quin. When in the locker room she felt her self consciousness creeping back in. Annoying. She decided to undress and wrap herself in a warm, fluffy white towel on the opposite side of the locker room to Quin.
y dont u ever like the love letters i leave u on your profile :(
*shakes booty all over profile*
【WEARING • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC: Long dayyy! Energy conserving posts for me!】" Good morning ... Madeline. " She blinked and took an almond into her mouth with an exhale. After a moment or two she decided not to take the pause personally. Besides, she had called her Madeline. That was a nice thing. " It is a shame we will be leaving today, I had not even the chance to go to the hot springs. I suppose what with all this confusion of timelines, there was really no time at all. " After a few seconds, she decided it was a shame. So much time wasted being spun around in confusion...She hadn't even had any fun yet. " I wonder what the school board will do, now that our school is in ruins? Perhaps they will send us to another school. " Another school sounded terrible. Not that she really enjoyed Bellhurst. "I hope not another school. I would really rather...not. Also, I was...thinking about going skiing before heading home. Or doing something not to make this a waste, at least." Once she lifted her gaze to Quin's and finished a raspberry, she shrugged. "...What do you think?"
【WEARING !! • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC】 Sunlight poured through the blinds. The warmth tickled at her face and woke her from a decent slumber. With a yawn and a stretch, she twisted her body under the warm sheets to see if Quin was there. When she was not, Madeline let out a breath she had been holding. Good, she could relax. But what was that on the table? Delicately, she pulled herself out of bed and rested her feet on the cool floor. Slim fingers reached out to pluck the decorative picture up into her hands while bright green eyes skimmed the contents. Once finished, she rolled her eyes and crumpled the piece of paper up before collapsing back onto the bed. How annoying. ...No, she wouldn't lie, not even to herself. How disappointing. To have to be instructed, like a child being told not to touch a hot stove. She knew better. Though, apparently at one time, she did not. Stuffing the paper under her pillow, she decided to get dressed and head into the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. She applied light make up and sighed at her reflection in the mirror. So physically tired...But she felt oddly refreshed today. Like good things were going to happen. ...She was probably wrong. Slipping into her shoes, she decided she would head down to get something light to eat after all. Maybe she would go skiing today? It didn't take her too long to see the girl. Before she sat down, though, she fixed herself a bowl of fruit and almonds with a bottled water. "Good morning, Quin." Her voice was of a neutral tone. She genuinely hoped thing didn't change too drastically between them, but...it would take some time before she really felt completely comfortable again.
[/url] __) _______ Despite how action-less his night had been, he had a pretty glorious sleep. Sure, it was an unfamiliar place, but it was of the same standards as his room at Antilum. Though he often avoided thinking about it, a part of him dared to wonder how differently things would be had he not been raised in such conditions. Oddly enough, he figured it wouldn't be so lonely all of the time and would possibly be happier. He crinkled his nose and stared quietly up at the ceiling before he finally decided to get up and leave the room. It didn't take long for him to find Elliot and Marina. He took a seat and tried the blink the sleep out of his eyes before giving a quiet good morning.
Saying it here, too. Thanks for this, girly. c; It is...how you say...great.
//Slowly drifts away from KHV.
For anyone who cares, small update on life; I got another job. So now I work two jobs and am always tired and not here as often.
【WEARING • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC: Gotta work tomorrow. Need sleeep. //rush】 Madeline listened quietly, sitting at the edge of her bed and only bothering to raise an eyebrow when she was confused--or in disbelief. When Harley was done, she took a deep breath. His parting words stung at her ear while she laid in bed, even long after he left. Beyond anything, she found that she was angry with herself--and with this game--and with Harley and John and Reuben and even Kallisti... If Harley was being honest, which she hated to admit he probably was, and she had really confessed, then she could only wonder why. Why would she do that? Sure, it was annoyingly obvious to her now that something was there for Quin...Something light and affectionate and literally sickening... but Madeline didn't love her. She didn't know anything about her! Quin was...mysterious, eloquent, prim and proper...It was alluring, somehow, considering how much of a hot head Madeline herself could be--but she was the opposite of what she loved about him. The boy who practically threw his heart and all of who he was at her feet. The only way she would have confessed to Quin--she imagined--is if she had just plain given up. Some kind of loophole suicide. What would have driven her to that point? Hell if she knew, but what a pathetic way to go out. Confessing to someone you didn't even love. That's why these feelings were dangerous. The fluttering affection would have to die. Her bottom lip quivered and she buried her face into her sheets, forcing herself to relax and sleep.
[/url] __) _______ He didn't want to go. He didn't believe them at all. Marina was gorgeous, but she was clearly mentally unstable. Either that, or an amazing prankster. Still, he would be able to skip out on a visit from his dad this way. Especially if he made things sound as urgent as Lady Crazy was making them seem. Who knew? Maybe he could get a little something out of this visit...Crazy or not, he'd like a piece of that. So while he road in the car Marina had provided, he texted his father letting him know something was coming up and he wouldn't be home for a couple of days. Shoving his phone into his pocket, Theodore leaned back to enjoy the ride. ...Hopefully not the only ride he'd be having tonight, hubbahubba. He smiled to himself, amused with his own joke before straightening his face. How disappointed he was when they arrived at her luxurious home and were immediately led towards the guest rooms while she disappeared. Bummer.Instead of following her to her room like a total creep, he made himself comfortable in one of the guest rooms and got ready for bed. While snug in the covers, he found his mind wandering off and a weird nostalgia pricking at his thoughts like a needle. Odd, but it suddenly felt like maybe there was something to this. Maybe she wasn't so crazy. He sighed and let himself drift off to sleep.
【WEARING • LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE • OOC】 Madeline was still flustered as she strode down the hallway. No, beyond 'flustered'. This was a terrible thing, but at least John had stopped her. Had she gone through with it, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself. She shoved the money he had handed her into her pocket and lifted her phone with her free hand, texting Reuben back to alert him of her 'earnings' hastily. " . . . Madeline, " Oh, man. Her ears felt hot as she lifted her gaze. It was Quin! Guilt eased it's way into her stomach as she remembered her sudden...sickness, and leaving her alone in the bedroom. She wondered if she was angry, but that thought was cut short when another voice rang out. " Hey, M. We've got something you might wanna hear. Something pretty shitty might happen to you tonight. You and Temperance. So we're trying to play the good guy and save you." A few thoughts crossed her mind--all of them hostile with a tinge of jealousy--before she truly registered his words. What was he talking about? Save her? Hah! What was he getting at? Something 'bad'?...Ah, no, but Quin was there. Maybe he was being honest? Another wave of panic hit her for just a moment and she visibly tensed up. Did this have to do with John? Or Reuben? Was Reuben angry, maybe? Temperance and him had contact so maybe... No, it wasn't wise to be so quick about things. If she gave too much away for no reason... "What are you getting at...?" Despite her trying, she couldn't keep the defensive tone from showing.
[/url] Latest Tumblr Update | Wearing | OOC: Tsk. She was gone by the time the lobby crew came to clean up the mess she made. Everything was a blur and she was feeling extremely sick. She gave up on finding Simon. Something told her she wouldn't be finding anything soon. There was someone else she wanted to find but with her headache and how sick she felt, she couldn't quite remember who. Her head was spinning. When she arrived back in her room, she went straight to her bed without changing clothes and fell onto the mattress face first, smashing her nose into her pillow....There was something eating away at her. It was a feeling of dread, and loneliness that made her feel empty and sort of carved out, like a jack-o-lantern.The usual soft, calming brightness around her was darkening, and there was this tiny voice in the back of her skull that she couldn't quite understand at first. It sounded urgent, and garbled, and broken up into little segments...but it looped in her head and made her muscles tighten as she tried to fall asleep.❝Kill yourself.❞
