“How many times do I have to tell you this is me being nice. If someone doesn’t have the forehead for bangs it’s better she knows now than when she leaves the salon looking like an extra for a hallmark movie and before you say anything – yes, hallmark movies are my favorite but that doesn’t mean everyone in them doesn’t look a little special!” Annie sighs, exasperated and needing to catch her damn breath. Honestly, you tell one girl she’d look troll-y with bangs! 

Talia opens her mouth to try and add her own two cents, but doesn’t get very far before she sees it’s not going to happen. She knows Annie well enough to know that once she gets going, there’s not a whole lot that can stop her. It’s honestly a little impressive how quickly her mind works. 

“You didn’t have to say it like that.” Just because she’s impressed, doesn’t mean she can’t also see through it. “I’m pretty sure there were tears. Real ones. She's probably going to buy herself a hat.”

Just do it. Knock. 

Bea’s fist hovers over the door but refuses to make contact. Her knuckles are pathetic and cowardly, but that’s no surprise is it? So is the rest of her. That’s why she’s put this off as long as she has. At first she’d just been hoping Sammy – Sam, she doesn’t deserve to use the blonde’s nickname, does she? – would forget all the effects of the curse like so many others. She should have known it wouldn’t be that easy for her. Bea’s spent centuries ruining lives it makes sense she’d ruin the only love she’s had that wasn’t manufactured, stolen or otherwise manipulated – this is her karma. She frets because she cares, but she knows the longer she lets this go the worse it will be, so it’s time to be brave. 

Knock. Knock. Knock. 

Knuckles make contact with hardwood and now all she can do is wait and hope Sam will actually answer.

Tossing the remote aside, Sam welcomes the interruption from searching Netflix for the perfect thing to watch, or she did until she looks through the peep hole to see who was standing on the other side of her door. There was so many times before that just seeing a glimpse of Bea would have had the door swinging open as fast as the hinges allowed it, but this time she’s frozen. She’d be lying if she said a part of her wasn’t glad to see Bea even now, but the part of her that is confused, angry, and so hurt, quickly outweighs it. 

Sam takes a breath to try to calm the emotional hurricane currently playing out inside her. It’s not at all successful, but she hopes that’s she hiding it well as she finally turns the door knob and opens the door. It’s not until she sees Bea standing in front of her without the distorted view through the door to separate then that Sam realizes she should have thought of something to say.

“I uh..I didn’t know you were coming over.”

Carmen snorts out a laugh, though it’s accompanied by a punch to her brother’s arm. “I’d be more worried about it if it felt like someone tried to choke me, but instead it feels, like…” It feels like it did that time Odelia left her for dead, almost, but that’s impossible. “It was definitely the curse.” She tips back some of her beer. “Did I see you at all that week? I don’t think I knew where the fuck you were.”

Davis rubs his shoulder, not even pretending that her playful punch hadn’t hurt. Maybe that was why people went to the gym? “Sounds like somebody missed me,” he says missing just how serious the week had been for Carmen. His was the same as any other, if you ignored the world going insane around him, which  he mostly did. “I was curse free and steering clear. Some guy handed me his keys talking about he needed to free himself from his worldly possessions, so I road tripped it to Vegas....Or at least I was going to, but I couldn’t figure out what the keys actually went to.” He scratches his head as he tries to figure it out again. “Might have been his post office box.”

ALARIC: I will never let that happen. Ever.

ECHO: You know, I believe that.

JEMMA: RIGHT LIKE I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S BEEN SO LONG. I'M ANCIENT

JEMMA: sammy ur the sweetest muffin. imma steal u from bea

SAM: What are they calling you out for?

ALARIC: Hello? Drinks? Please?
