fitz: get a job or something yknow

jacinta: i dont even know wtf is going on anymore.

“Hey, sorry if I accidentally almost knocked you over with my crutches, are you okay?” @jacintas·

“I’m glad you’re okay too, Cinta. I didn’t even see you there, but I’m glad you were able to get out of there safely. Have you spoken to Miles? I can’t imagine how he must be feeling right now.”

“there was just so many people all over the place. i couldn’t even recognize more than half of them. not yet. i don’t even know what to say or what the hell is happening.”

“Well. looks like there’s nothing else to do besides drink!” The male took a sip from the flask that he always keeps with him.

“Sure seems like it.” She rolled her eyes recognizing the voice in the dark. She wasn’t much of a drinker and there was no point in faking it now that she had been exposed. Still, this party seemed to be a drag. 

Miles nodded, “Yeah, its that bad. They’re trying to take out everything just to build these new buildings to kick lower income residents out. My father as the mayor didn’t like that so all of this started happening, especially since their father is a bigger player in this than we all thought.” Hearing her ask for his ideas, he really had little to none. There wasn’t much he could do considering how much money talks and that the police would look the other way if they wanted. “I honestly have no idea…Declan is just there and Fiona has a victim complex so everyone is going to side with her of course.” 

Jacinta couldn’t believe what was even going on with their family which was definitely at a grand scale. “I’m sorry...I had no idea.” She was a bit speechless and unsure on how to even proceed. “Sounds just like them.” She rolled her eyes, knowing that the Coynes were very powerful. “Still, I mean there has to be something, right?” She sighed. “Are you okay? I mean considering all of this.” She still asked even though she knew the answer at this point.

Miles turned around, he figured someone else should start knowing about what was actually going on, he eventually planned on telling both of his friends, but he just needed to know when. Grabbing his father’s paperwork that was supposed to be hidden he handed it over towards her.·“Read it, it has everything going on between our families. They’re basically driving us to bankruptcy and want us out of the city for good.” He knew it was a lot to take in, but he needed more people to actually understand his side of the situation.·

She could tell there was something bothering Miles the past few weeks but she didn’t want to push him too much with information. Grabbing the paperwork from Miles’ hands, she looked down glancing over it as he spoke.·“Shit,” She mumbled, finally making eye contact with Miles once more. Everything had suddenly made sense as to why he would always bring up the Coynes.·“What are you planning to do?” She asked knowing her friend that he always had something in the back of his head.

“I’m surprised he managed to throw this too,” before he could add anything else he noticed everything going dark. “Oh no…really?” he then stared at Jacinta, “Want to help me try and start some of the fires in here? Otherwise we’re going to be having a lot of guests trying to start them themselves.” As he walked alongside her, he sighed. “I still don’t understand how the Coynes can show their faces here, especially after all the shit that is being pulled,” he mentioned as he entered his father’s office trying to find the lighter to start some of the fireplaces around the manor.

A laugh escaped from her lips until the room had suddenly went dark, spooking her out just a little bit. “Yeah this just turned creepy real fast.” She followed beside him until they managed to slip inside a room. “I’m still trying to figure out what’s going on between you and them. You always bring them up but it’s usually vague.” She pointed out, as she stood in the dark waiting for Miles to find what he needed.

“I’m surprised that so many people managed to squeeze themselves into here, some probably uninvited,” he mentioned quietly to himself in a corner. He was surprised Hunter even took his advice but in the worst way possible, or what Miles would like to think considering the manor was the last place he wanted anyone in. Especially considering the high tensions of everything. As he spotted someone in the corner, he made his way towards them. “Fancy seeing you here.” 

Jacinta felt a bit out of place in the midst of this extravagant party surrounded by many people in their attire. She felt a wave of relief when she saw Miles nearby so she went up to him at ease. “I would say the same but your brother threw this party.” She smiled. “This is a bit overwhelming. I’m surprised he managed to throw a party with the way you describe him.”
