a  splash  of  colour  ,  red  lips  rubbed  against  each  other  to  spread  the  gloss  .  yvette’s  eyes  gleamed  as  she  took  a  step  back  to  admire  the  outfit  she  had  put  together  .  “  tell  me  i  don’t  look  hot  ,  ”  she  challenged  ,  gaze  drifting  to  her  companion  lurking  off  in  her  bedroom  .  “  i  told  you  i  wouldn’t  take  long  to  get  ready  .  you  should  feel  lucky  it  only  took  me  this  long  ,  perfection  is  supposed  to  take  time  .  ”  there’s  a  smile  spreading  on  her  face  ,  as  pretty  as  the  tinted  gloss  on  her  lips  .  hands  raised  in  a  ‘tada  !’  gesture  ,  her  body  posed  to  match  ,  but  her  face  quickly  dropped  into  a  look  of  disappointment  .  “  you  can  at  least  pretend  to  be  excited  that  we’re  going  out  .  when  was  the  last  time  you  let  me  drag  you  out  to  party  anyways  ?  ”

“i’m sorry you cannot seriously sit here and say to me that you think any fantasy novel series is better than lord of the rings.” rory’s face was aghast, affronted by the horror of someone believing that anyone had bested tolkein. the streetlights surrounding the library had dimmed to a warm amber color and in its last thirty minutes of operation the library was ghostly silent. rory glared from behind her coke-bottle round glasses and wrapped a hunter green cardigan a little tighter around her frame. “i mean there’s just no possible way. middle earth as a whole is one of the most compelling fantasy worlds out there, the original fellowship of the ring on their own are such an emotional core that i don’t think any series has replicated. i mean it created the blueprint for the kinds of pathos we see in fantasy novels to this day!”

“If you could have any super power, what would it be?” One of many random questions that would filter through Quin’s brain on a daily. That and, why can’t people just treat others with decency and respect, what’s the longest someone can hold their breath for, why do we still have a tailbone, how long before we have to live on mars, and so on and so on. “Honestly, I used to always say invisible, but….” a soft chuckle fell from his lips as he shook his head. “Well, I kinda already feel that enough as it is,” he admitted with another laugh. “But lately I think just - the ability to freeze time would be really cool. Not rewind time or anything,” he quickly clarified, waving his hands and everything to indicate the urgency. “Definitely don’t want to fuck up the timeline or anything…. but just….. to stop it…. like a pause button. Just to catch your breath…. oh or when I need to wake up early for classes, freezing and then sleeping in until i’m actually well rested…. yeah… absolutely. Uh- anyway, what’s yours?”
