Ofc Kyle

octavia had been busy building whatever’s left as the numbers of people grew higher. she’d been one of the few people who took it easy on them, knowing how it was for her. she rolled her eyes, as she headed over to pick up the branch that was laying on the ground. “– do you really think someone losing it is exciting? you’ve been through it. we’ve all been through it. cut him some slack.” the brunette mumbled.

Sighing deeply, Kyle turned, not surprised to find Octavia being the source of the disagreement. “Hell of a lot better entertainment than anything else we’ve got here.” He said lazily, shoving his hands deep into his pocket and leaning back on the heels of his feet. “Not everyone cries like a shuck baby -- I sure didn’t.” It was a point of bragging for him, always had been. “You know -- since you’re so determined to protect the greenie, I might make it a point to push him over the edge.”

A small smile appeared on her face since it was funny how the Greenie was freaking out about what was happening. She shrugged answering his first question and then nodded agreeing. 

“Open your shuck mouth, Abi, you’re not a mute.” He spat. Nothing annoyed him more than silence in return for his own words. “-- Better make sure you keep up tomorrow, I’d hate to take your food and lose you in there.”

Avalon gave one last look to the Greenie before responding to the boy,thinking of when she first came here. The first day is the worst. You’re so confused, lost and you just want answers. But the answers you really want can’t be given. The second day of being in the Glade, Avalon told herself that they had probably seen it all before and that she wouldn’t want to be an annoyance to everyone. So she hid her true thoughts about the situation and turned into the person she had strong feeling she was even before coming into the Glade. Maybe worse. “ ‘M sure he’ll figure it out on his own. “ Avalon finally said, getting out of her own thoughts, looking up at Kyle. “ It’d probably be best that he slim it by nightfall or he will have a lot of people be angry with him tomorrow. “ She held back from rolling her eyes at his lunch statement,  folding her arms instead. “ There’s no bloody way I’m betting my lunch on this. “

“He might---” He said slowly Eight years he’d been there, coming up to the anniversary of his trip up the shoot. However, he’d never been like that. He’d kept to himself, sure enough, watching everything he could find with his eyes, waiting for something more to happen. When nothing else did, he simply assimilated. “Or he won’t.” The corner of his lip turned up, having a new greenie around only meant he had one more person to torment, one more person to screw with. “And what a shame that would be. Let’s hope the grievers don’t make too much noise. It’s be just awful for him to have to hear that on his first night...” Brow arching, he folded his arms, turning to face Avalon completely now. “Oh? What’re you willing to bet then?”

Clearly annoyed, Brooklyn stood from her spot, the flowers still firmly in her hands. “Well, I’m sorry I offended you, shuckface.” She scoffed, her words filled with venom. Walking closer to Kyle, she shoved the plants to his chest. “Better now?” 

Amusement building in his stomach at the girls clear annoyance, Kyle simply smirked at her as she stood, the smug look on his face never fading. “You know, I really don’t think that you are.” He replied, his own tone teasing and sarcastic. Barely moving as her hand flew out, her knuckles and the flowers brushing against his chest, he lifted a hand and took them, dropping them to the ground and crushing them beneath his foot. “Much.”

Her eyebrows crinkled down at the sight. The Gladers liked to play around with Greenies – not only were they knew, but a source of entertainment, and she would be lying if she didn’t play around with them. “Not betting,” she said with a shake of her head. “I’m a growing girl, I need my nutrients. Plus, I think Kisa or Luc would get to him first before he loses it.”

Brow arched, Kyle shot a small glare down at the younger girl, “You sure you’re growing? ‘Think the food might’a stunted you a little bit.” Rolling his eyes at the mention of their leaders, he let out a heaving sigh, “Everyone loses it, Kisa and Luc don’t make a difference.”

Jenna crossed her arms in front of her chest as she watched the scene before her, the faintest chuckle passing her lips. This happened almost every month, and she had passed the stage of being annoyed by it. Now, it was only amusing to her. “Deal,” She nodded towards Kyle, her own smile widening, “they’re really a bunch of slintheads.”

Month after month, he’d watched a newbie show up only to lose their absolute minds only hours earlier. The forgotten memories, the glade, all the unanswered questions that came with being here was enough to drive anyone mad. Now, after so long, it was all petty to him. Every greenie forced another eye roll from him. “Knew you’d be up for it.” He shot back, a sly grin on his face. “Slintheads doesn’t even cover it. You’d think whoever sent us up here would send some people with a little backbone. Instead, we get this.”

“Well, it’s not heaven on earth, try understand them!” Hilly shrugged. She had wanted to go out there, she had even wanted to be a runner but her legs were too short and she fell a lot. Not helpful. “I am not betting my lunch even though I give him until sunrise.”

“Like any of us know any differently. Been there, done that, sure as hell didn’t cry like a shuck baby.” He said sarcastically, shooting a glare at the girl. “Sunrise? You’re being a little generous, don’t you think?”

Brooklyn plopped down on a slightly damp patch of grass, a few flowers held in her hand. She’d been stressed for the past few days though she had no idea why. It was times like theses that Brooke let her guard down for a few hours and absorbed the feeling of peace —- although living in the Glade, there wasn’t always time for that. As the blonde began picking petals off a sunflower she found, Brooklyn felt someone’s eyes on her. Gazing around, her own pupils met the culprits. “ Why are you staring at me, shank? Never seen a girl relax before? ” 

With a quick roll of his eyes, Kyle huffed a small laugh, “Slim it, blondie. -- There ain’t all that much to look at here, and to be honest, I’m a little pissed you’re ruining them shuck flowers.” Clearly, he had no interest in the plants, or the girl but he didn’t mind pulling a little rise from those around him when things got a little on the boring side.
