* RIPLEY’S LIFE seemed to be a sequence of less than ideal circumstances , she noticed , but what she treasured within her own self was her ability to 𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐨𝐫𝐞 the shit and focus on redirecting that energy . though her method usually ended up with less than ideal CONSEQUENCES , one such consequence of avoiding one of her best friends was the fact that it forced ripley to reach out beyond her usual circle — landing her straight in the lap of one international student she’s grown particularly fond of . she’d hate for maiken to get the impression she’s a second choice , but takes gratitude in the fact that despite the SHIT going on in her own overly - complicated circle , she can find solace in fleshing out this new friendship with the female . “ so you’re telling me 𝐨𝐧𝐞 passport is good enough to get me hassle - free through every major tourist city in the continent ? ” she asks , a repeat of an earlier concept maiken was explaining to ripley that the blonde just couldn’t seem to wrap her head around as the two shared a delivery dinner in her dorm . “ and the whole fucking thing’s BARELY the size of texas ? ”
