Once you turned 21, not drinking at parties stopped being a cute cliché. Nobody used to mind when Grace turned down alcohol--some commented that she was a rule-follower, a goody-two-shoes, she smiled and adjusted her purity ring and they’d croon about what a good, religious girl she was. She managed to make it two more years with only minimal eye-rolling in her direction; Coke in ice tended to throw people off enough.

Now, fully 25 and past her innocent Disney Channel years (and past their contract dictating her behavior), Grace had trouble turning down drinks at parties. Depending on the party and its host, getting drunk was an expectation; at this one, hosted at White Lies with an open bar, it was downright inevitable for most attendees. Two hours into the evening and Grace was bored out of her mind. Watching B-listers and arrogant directors make a mess of themselves and their drinks was less than titillating. She was sitting at the bar, still nursing her first champagne, glancing at her phone and wishing for an excuse to leave early without offending anyone or upsetting her agent. She was supposed to be here to mingle and make connections, after all.

I like you // I love you // I’m indifferent toward you // You’re one of my best friends // You’re like family // You are family // I dislike you // I hate you // I’m jealous of you // I’m scared of you // I would adopt you // I’m attracted to you // I’d date you // I’d sleep with you // I’d marry you // I’m worried about you // You confuse me // You’re annoying // I respect you // I want your respect // I feel protective of you // I’d like to cut loose with you // You’re good-looking // I’m suspicious of you // I’m hiding something from you // You’re fun // You’re boring // You’re nice // You’re mean // You’re smart // You’re stupid // I think you’re a better person than me // I think I’m a better person than you // I want to apologize to you // I want an apology from you // I wish I’d never met you // I never want to forget you // I want to get to know you better

Where: Audition Place Thing When: December 29, 2016 Who: @nolanseli

Today was a first for the millenia-old demon. He could honestly say, that before this day, he’d never been asked to be emotional-support for a human’s acting audition. Elijah had asked him to come, with a little help from Belial’s unwavering support of the young man, and Elijah’s audition. He’d come, dressed for the part, with a hipster scarf, some fake glasses, and a sign that said ‘Elijah Rox’ in sparkling red letters. He was very, very proud of himself, and had thrown himself head first into the delightful distraction that Elijah always proved to be. “C’mon, babe. You got this!”
