âż ( andie + paris đ )
when andie and paris first met in university they couldn't stand each other. andie is generally very easy to get along with but paris? paris always seemed to rile her up. she thought he was a self centered, egotistical ass hat. and he probably thought she was a self righteous nerd with a terrifying penchant for matyrdom (mostly true). she rarely makes mistakes, but when she's had one glass of wine too many she'll admit she was wrong about him, and that part of the reason she'd despised him was because he saw past her own sunshine embossed armour. he's probably her favourite person (she'd have to drink a wine cellar dry to admit that.)
paris is andie's emergency contact. even when they aren't speaking. andie has good months, free of nightmares and anxiety--where she can cosplay as normal. but on her really bad nights, all she wants to do is call paris. once she opened up his contact id and stared at the photo and willed herself to call. she hasn't quite managed it (her own fears of looking less than perfect, of having to explain why she can't sleep in the first place keep her from actually hitting call. she's already inadequate, no need to remind him of all the reasons why brielle [vom] is the right choice) bonus: she has this one recurring dream of dragging paris to paris. she's not sure why. but it's a good dream, mostly her eating too much sugar and vibrating down streets in the middle of the night waving a baguette around like a sword screaming omlette du fromage. paris laughs a lot in the dream too, and that might be her favourite part. she doesn't tell him about the dream.
