can emily play croquet ? that’s a good fuckin’ question. yet here he is leaning on tiptoes with knees slightly bent ( looks as awkward as it sounds ) , fingers tapping the mallet’s top as shoulders roll ‘til they’re ready. gotta look good, gotta impress ! and
— SWINGS !
however, the most he gets is a slight ’ click ’ of wood hitting the ball, mallet crumpling to the ground about a foot away.
oops.
❝ okay… could’ve been better, i can live with that. ❞
the mishap leaves quinn a lot less surprised than if the swing had gone well. sometimes they would swear em was a literal cartoon character or the comedic relief in a teen drama ( and WELL ... maybe that second one wasn’t so far off given their current high school experience ),
they sigh, managing to just avoid putting their head in their hands. they guess that em’s just lucky that none of the varsity dickwads got a face full of that mallet, or they’d probably both be running for their lives.
❝ i’m sure there’s some way that that counts as impressive. ❞
