putting tommy & theo in the same room for even just a limited time was recipe for disaster . one was going to end up furious — usually theo & the other was going to end up with a whole new way to describe themselves thanks to the colourful insults thrown their way — usually tommy .  so having them in the same room , champagne at their beck n’ call & tommy needing a release from the ever growing restive energy building up within him — it was like a moth to a flame . theo was always entertaining . her buttons were FAR too easy to push . it seemed he only had to show his face & there was some sort of visceral reaction . in his defence , it was by mere chance he spotted her a little down the room . attention diverted for only a minute to catch upon her features & that was it . an excuse was muttered to the few he’d found himself with before he weaved through the crowd towards her to come quietly to a stop beside her . throat was cleared before he spoke , “ waiting around for anyone special ? or are you scoping out your next victim ? ”

J   :   JEALOUSY.   does your muse get jealous in a relationship?

nope ! at least not when she was in her previous relationship . she was very trusting & very confident in what she & her boyfriend had with one another . things may be a little different now but she has yet to find that out 

U   :   UNREQUITED.   has your muse had their heart broken?

not by other people , no . but she’s broken her own heart multiple times when she distanced herself from people that she loved & cared about because she thought it was the best thing for them .

S   :   SWEETHEART.   did your muse have a childhood sweetheart?

she did !! until she ruined everything & broke up with him because she didn’t want him to have to deal with everything that came up after the accident !! everyone thought they’d go the distance , they thought they’d go the distance , but sometimes life doesn’t work out like that .

T   :   TRUE LOVE.   does your muse believe in true love?

she’d like to think that true love exists . she is honestly a hopeless romantic at heart & would love to believe that everyone has that special someone out there just waiting for them . but that belief has been shaken a little .

I    :   I LOVE YOU.   does your muse find ‘i love you’ easy or hard to say?

with friends & family ? not one bit ! she’ll express just how much she loves you on the daily . romantically , however , is a different story . it’s not that she doesn’t want to say it , it’s just she has a hard time believing someone would love her when she’s not exactly in love with herself & comes with a long list of what she thinks are issues . she doesn’t want to force / trap anyone into loving her just because she does so she keeps her lips sealed .

N   :   NAUGHTY.   what is your muse like in bed?

she is what you’d call unexperienced . she’s only had one boyfriend in her life & though they were together for a long time , they never actually slept together . she was waiting for the right moment to take that step with him but that right moment never came . she’s not a virgin however , it was a stupid decision , one fuelled by sadness & too much alcohol in her system . she regrets it but it’s whatever . now she’s more picky & hasn’t actually slept with anyone since that night because it’s a little hard when you don’t like other people touching you . 

E   :   EMBRACE.   does your muse like hugs? what are their hugs like?

T   :   TRUE LOVE.   does your muse believe in true love?

not one bit — at least not for HIM . there was a time where he was coming around to the idea that it was possible but in the end he convinced himself that it wasn’t something that existed for him .

O   :   ODE.   does your muse have a way with words?

can he be charming ? hell yeah ! but only when it’s at surface level . once anyone wants to hit upon the deep stuff & get him to express his TRUE feelings & thoughts he chokes up . it’s not that he doesn’t know what to say , it’s just that the words never seem to come out right as he’s never actually put his thoughts & feelings into words all that much before .

M   :   MOONLIGHT.   what is your muse’s ideal date? where / who with / etc?

he’s not a big fan of extravagance , he’s not a showy person at all . he likes simple things . walks in the park , setting up somewhere all day & just being with the other person , weekend trips away to some place neither have been before — if it means just spending time with someone , one on one , in the most simplest of ways it’ll be perfect for him . & we are not going to get into with who right now !!!!! but it’d ideally be with someone that’s capable of comfortably just sitting in silence every now & again .

Y   :   YOURS.   does your muse get protective easily?

tommy has ALWAYS played the role of protector . due to his past with his mum & sister ( & father ) , it is very easy for him to slip into it & is more or less a default role he finds himself falling into with not only a select few people but with anyone that needs help . most of the time it’s completely harmless , at his roots he’s an attentive person , but there’s been a few points in times where it’s been to the detriment of not only himself but also the other person since he has a habit of thinking he knows best because with keeping his mum & sister safe it’s always been the case . so why wouldn’t he know now ?

C   :   CHOCOLATE.   does your muse like chocolate? which one is their favourite?

fun fact , thomas connelley hates just about anything sweet , chocolate especially . you might be able to slip him some dark , dark  , chocolate & you might see him with a small stash of sour or gummy lollies every now & again but if he never saw something sweet again he wouldn’t give a single damn .

N   :   NAUGHTY.   what is your muse like in bed?

it all depends on who he’s with & what’s going on in his head if we’re being honest . it can vary from being more on the softer more sensual side ( will take his time & focus on them more than himself ) of things to bordering on rougher ( this ain’t no 50 shades of grey stuff though & it’s probably rare , most likely reserved for one night stands & with people who are into it , we love consent  ) . for the most part however things usually fall in the middle somewhere . he’s passionate & rathers being in control . you could say he’s more of a giver than a receiver .

E   :   EMBRACE.   does your muse like hugs? what are their hugs like?

it depends who’s hugging him . believe it or not his love language is physical touch . BUT it’s one of the things he’s compartmentalised into his little box of things he didn’t need to survive , so physical touch is quite a big thing for him . if it’s the right person , mostly his VERY close friends & family , he loves hugs but other than that he’d prefer it if people just didn’t hug him .

his hugs though , let me tell you that they’d probably be very ... nice . he’s a GIANT & he also runs warm so honestly , if you ask me , it’s a great recipe for a good hug . will wrap his arms completely around the whole person & embrace them . may even lift them off the ground a lil .

L   :   LOVE.   who does your muse love?

that was the funny thing about the past , it ALWAYS had a way of catching up with you — even if you try your hardest to run from it . but staying in the same area that you grew up in ? having friends that were now friends with people one knew once upon a time ? it wasn’t exactly a recipe for success . but it seemed success was something that had slipped from justine’s grasp long ago . that , however , didn’t mean she’d tried her damned hardest to AVOID the one person on campus since the day she discovered they were both attending the same university . it wasn’t due to hatred , far from it really . justine had assumed keeping her distance was for the better , she didn’t imagine it was all that fair on theo to have to juggle things because she had made a decision to pull away . to shut her out of her life after her accident . but something , the world wasn’t on either of their sides . she’d only stepped across the threshold of # twelve when she heard movement down the hall towards the kitchen area . her mind didn’t even once go to the thought that maybe it was someone other than her four , but as she stepped into the kitchen / living area the smile upon her lips & the impending bright greeting faded slowly as eyes fell upon the dark haired girl who’d once been someone her features would have instantly brightened upon seeing . “ oh . it’s YOU . ” the last thing she’d meant was for her words to come out sharp & negative , but the surprised shock was unable to be hidden from both her features & voice . but , there was a quick scramble to recover at least a little bit , “ i just mean — i didn’t expect you , i thought it was one of the girls in here . ”
