⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ " fucking hell . i spent a good few thousands on that piece of damn fabric . literally , how the hell could i have lost it just like that ... " a frustrated noise sounds from her . " mind you , i'd only punch you if deserve it -- which sometimes , you do . "

          "honest question."   she holds the squash up to the other,  wiggles it.   "does this look like an ass to you?"  / @nepofmstarters.

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ upon eyeing the squash that was presented to xem , a raised brow towards the item then towards the presenter ... xe smirked slightly before the smallest of laughs followed . " aside from honest , is it consequential for an answer ? "

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ there is a major shrug to the shoulders , hand reaching out to gesture towards the other . " you tell me , do you typically end up buying presents this early or are you a procrastinator ? " haven himself ended up shopping for a few things before letting a trusted servant finish out the orders .

"oh my gosh, hi!" zoya squealed as she rushed over to YOUR MUSE, a wide smile on her face. "i almost didn't see you there," she laughed as she came to a halt in front of them, uncapped sharpie still in her hand. "i almost didn't see you. did you enjoy the show?"

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ " i enjoyed what i did see , arrived later than i expected due to my driver being an awfully large pain in my ass . praised that i reserved my seat ahead of time or i wouldn't have been able to see a damn thing , " xe stated matter of factly .

         “  do  you  ever  wonder  how  people  come  up  with  specialty  cocktail  names  ?  ”  they  ask  the  person  next  to  them  .  she  take  another  glance  at  the  menu  .  “  lari’s  skybound  elixir  is  just  an  aviation  cocktail  variant  and  the  jetsetter’s  refresher  is  just  a  caipirinha  .  i  promise  you  i  definitely  did  not  come  up  with  these  names  ,  ”  the  pilot  laughs  .  “  what  would  you  name  your  signature  cocktail  ?  ”

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ the glass in her palm that withheld a blue tint liquid , sloshing against the sides of it's container as she slowly twisted her wrist , rested comfortably . lips slightly parted to allow the glass to then settle on the lowest cushion , said blue liquid disappearing within an instant . " the work of creative minds put together can come up with the most extravagant but silliest names , " spoken softly , almost a whisper -- relishing in the taste . line of vision then met her neighbor's , an inkling of a smile appearing . " taste of haven , hm ? " there is a confirming nod , one proud of the simple name .

❝ so when you say creatures, do you also mean you believe in the existence of aliens? ❞ rina tilted her head in curiosity. ❝ because, to answer your question, no, i don't believe in ghosts — but i feel slightly different about aliens. i'm still a skeptic when it comes to it, but i can't even begin to imagine just how vast the galaxy is, so i could be wrong. ❞

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ " i believe in the existence of everything that the mind may not be able to comprehend with what little resources we have in this world . from ghosts to aliens to crytpids ... all of it ! 'cause you know , how do we actually know ? as you said , the galaxy is so vast so why rule out other phenomenoms on our own planet ? "

a soft hum vibrated from her throat. "bora bora would be incredible, too. gotta add that to my list of future vacation spots." gemma nodded in agreement. the trip was much needed after a busy few months of touring, she needed a minute to recharge. "i got you," she laughed as haven gave permission for gemma to kidnap them next time. "i'll remember that, just try not to fight me too much when you get startled out of your sleep."

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ seeing such a soft , genuine smile on xir face was not something one came across easily . however, there were times when xe's mood would stabilize in a manner that made xem tolerable . made xem a lot more at ease , the sense of impending doom dissipated . " seriously , you cannot go to bora bora without me . one time , i mentioned it to an ex friend & that's why i now call her ex , " xe stated , confidence ringing through each word . then , a pinky digit with dark polish is outreached to the other . " swear to you , i will be the easiest person to wake . just for you in this situation . " xir smile grew only wider .

         “  people  really  celebrate  that  holiday  ?  ”  trix  says  in  jest  .  they  certainly  didn’t  .  “  i  only  remember  because  of  the  tourists  who  come  in  to  watch  the  parade  .  and  who  doesn’t  look  more  towards  the  friday  after  ?  it’s  not  as  chaotic  as  it  used  to  be  .  remember  when  news  coverage  would  be  dominated  by  fights  happening  at  a  walmart  parking  lot  over  a  flatscreen  tv  ?  ”  they’ll  feign  a  wistful  sigh  .  “  those  were  the  times  .  nothing  brings  america  together  like  consumer  capitalism  .  ”  //  @simplyhaven

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ haven could practically feel the disdain that clouded the air at the thought of one of the holidays that filled the winter season . a short chortle mixed with a snicker sounded in response , " it is an american delicacy , is it NOT ? feels like most american holidays are built on very ... inappropriate circumstances but they will forever be loved ! " there is a shake to his head , thinking about when he had learned of the meaning of some american holidays . " i have not been in this country for long but honestly , what you're describing sounds like a hell of a time . the black friday i know is ummmm ... cybermonday ? do not think i have ever went out to the stores physically . "

“    get an ice pack then because i don’t know where it is,    i’ve been lying,    and i haven’t seen it since that night.    are you sure it isn’t just deep inside of the mess you have inside of that bag of yours and you are just too lazy to look for it?    ”  

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ " LITERALLY ... i have checked everywhere . turned my whole place upside down but it seems to have grown a pair of legs & walked away . fucking sucks . also, you know i'd never actually punch you hard enough that you'd bruise , right ? "

        she shifted  her  weight  from  one  foot to another. there were many times that yujin wished she was braver, and this was certainly one of them. if only to escape the other's ire.   ❝ well, i don't really need that type of epinephrine release. ❞   response spoken ever so softly, directed at the ground rather than @simplyhaven. but then ger gaze gradyally returned toward her.   ❝ yeah, ❞   yujin nodded.   ❝ you go and have fun; i'll wait out here for you. ❞

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ life was short or whatever cliche thing they said to keep individuals from plowing their head into the sand , he thought . while being caught up in a whirlwind , breathes were the singular solution . alongside yujin's answer , as one would have more than likely stormed off if there had been yet another confliction . an inspiration of air sounded , followed by an exhale equivalent to the signalment of relief . " truly, you're good with that ? there won't be any grudges held against me in the future ? or else .... " as that was not something he wanted on his already full plater .

"that's easy for you to say! you wouldn't be the one who's stuck as some cyborg!" roman couldn't help but raise his voice as he responded. clearly the idea had struck some sort of nerve. "i wouldn't say no to a costume. but actually shapeshifting into a transformer? that's where i draw the line." @simplyhaven

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ the once semblance of amusement that had previously been there , essentially dissipated within half a second of the tone shift . " first of all , watch your goddamn voice towards me . seriously ? " xe blinked slowly as gears shifted in xir mind , the change affecting emotions damagingly . " second , why do you draw the line there . you HATE transformers ? " head tilted to the side while now a reticent gaze fixated on roman .

“     okay but look,     and what if you come and you don't see it?     mmm?    what if i am just lying and i actually don’t have it and i don’t know where the hell it is?     mmmm?     what are you gonna do?     ”     

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ " going to punch your arm so hard for taking up my precious time that it turns purple . then after you shed a few tears ... i'll get you an ice pack & sit with you on the couch while we think of where my cost more than your home bikini top is , mkay ? "

“     i am not taking it off.     it strains the sight,    yes,    but it gives the room that    pop!     it desperately needed.    my golden globe doesn’t shine     as bright     as your top does, y'know? ”

⋆｡‧˚ʚ 🤍 ɞ˚‧｡⋆ " it's like you're basically asking me to take it down the next time i come over . if you don't have that shit down under lock & key -- which i am PRAYING that you actually have it stored somewhere safe for me to come get -- it will be coming down . "
