“i’d like to see you try,” her eyes hadn’t been on him, not yet, instead trailing up to the front of the pub, nose wrinkling as she read the name, “the taffy puller - “ there’d been a noticeable grimace, “ - so very fetch. do you do this often?” she gestured towards the bench - despite sitting down, afterwards, and despite being there herself in the first place, “i like the view from your office,” lydia crossed her legs, cast a glance to the street besides the pub - it’d been the closest thing to a view, “so very spacious, too. what services do you provide? do you have a certification, or whatever?”

“i would genuinely like to see you try.” will collapsed onto the bench beside him, his head falling, cheek hitting the table. it stayed there. it was the first time in days will had felt truly comfortable. the wood of the table felt cool against his cheek, and he shut his eyes. “you wanna just have a fuckin’ nap? i want a drink, but…” without lifting his head, he reached for the menu, his groping hand missing it twice before finally catching the edge of it and dragging it towards him like they were in an adaptation of night of the living dead starring will as the dead and the menu as some innocent bystander turned victim being punished for the horror movie sins they’d committed. “i want another cup of coffee. sage. have i ever told you. you’re a good fuckin’ friend. if you ever tell anyone i said that shit i’m gonna kill you, but…” he reached up and patted sage’s cheek.

Amethyst had ditched the party and wandered off to explore the town more. She found herself at a local bar. It was one of the best places to go when she wanted a bit of a banter with a stranger. Her fingertip was twirling around the brim of her glass, her hand in her chin as she listen to some man go on about his brand new business. She tuned out of the conversation half way in. Instead, someone else had caught her eye. His back was turned from her, but she knew his type without having to see him fully. An idea popped into her mind as she stared. The stranger would be the perfect one to upset her father. She could have some fun all while making her father mad. Though she wasn’t going to walk up to him herself, she had to wait until the other would initiate. With a sigh, she turned to the boring brood that was still talking. Amethyst put on a fake smile and reached out to touch the man’s hand, hoping that the other stranger was watching. | @liighter​

garnet: what my muse's perfect partner would be

someone who motivates him without shutting him down for being lazy most of the time. it’s going to be a slow process for him to really become the best version of himself, so really anyone who is willing to stick around while that happens. they’d also need to be really silly, and willing to go on benders with him at the drop of a hat. or, alternatively, help him if he plans on getting sober some day.

opal: how creative my muse is

on a scale from one to ten he’s probably about a six or seven. he isn’t innately artsy or anything but his whole view on life is sort of creative, and he definitely prefers to be around that kind of chaotic energy.

ulexite: how empathetic/sympathetic/compassionate my muse is

zoisite: does my muse believe everything's going to work out for them in the end or not?

sapphire: if everyone my muse knew was hanging off a cliff and they could only choose three to save, the rest certainly dying, who they would choose

beyond his mother and sister, he’d choose kasey because he’s recently become pretty dependent on her friendship, ren because there’s likely no one else who would put up with being his roommate, and then mimi for obvious reasons. he also would consider saving will but figured will wouldn’t mind dying that much.

ruby: a happiness headcanon

true, sober-based bliss doesn’t come easy for sage. in fact it’s probably been years since he’s even felt it, except for when he’s been in relationships. unfortunately, it’s unlikely that he’ll be able to feel truly happy without alcohol ever again, unless he gets sober.
