hell at your doorstep || maisie & lissy
@lissy-mccall
[When Maisie wakes up, she’s expecting, as usual, to be the first one awake in the Calyset dorm. (Well, aside from Annie, who probably shouldn’t count if she hadn’t actually gone to bed the night before.) It’s the weekend, which means they can actually sleep in, something that most of her roommates take advantage of. But as Maisie doesn’t need a whole lot of sleep, she’s usually the first one awake. Not today, though, because Lissy is already up.] Hey sunshine. You’re up early. [Maisie yawns, stretching.] I was thinking about taking a walk, you want to join me?
[The two girls head out to her favorite trail, talking about everything from their chore routine to the newest gossip regarding the citizens of Colony 22. True to her promise, none of it concerns Maisie’s romantic relationships (or lack thereof), because Maisie is on a break from men. This, chatting with her friends, this makes her plenty happy. Singing to herself when no one is watching, visiting the horses, sketching the people of the Colony, it all makes her happy, which means she doesn’t need a man to make her happy.
That doesn’t mean the subject doesn’t interest her.] Hey look. There goes that guy Mira likes. Charlie. What’s up with them, anyway? Has anything new happened?
