not known for predictability

Paige: I'd prefer the frat boys but rodents don't scare me. Does the flavour of cheetos make a difference?

Paige: Neither of those things sound too bad actually. What else do cheetos attract?

Paige: I left a cheeto on everyone’s car trailing to the house i’m at, hanzel and gretel style.

Paige: I am nothing if not an absolute genius.

Magnolia: Hi! Since I'm a giving person, congratulations! You've won an unlimited supply of sunscreen this summer! You're welcome in advance for those frown lines getting better 😄

Zac: What... the actual... fuck...

It would be a lie to say that Lucy didn’t usually enjoy the events that were held in Auradon and by far, the picnic basket auction was always a top choice. While she usually ended up making a basket to submit for the occasion, this time around she had gone with a different option. Sitting through so many baskets had been tedious but there had been a few that caught her eye and it was fun watching people get into bid wars over a few particular baskets, giggling to herself at the surprise on people’s faces only for it to end with her being shook by the basket maker of the one that she ended up bidding on. It had caught her eye the second she saw the starfish and aquamarine color but the contents inside had made her determined to have it. 

The true shock had been the creator of the basket, Lucy biting her lip as he made his way over to her and letting out an exasperated laugh at his commentary. “What can I say? I had to make sure the mascot of our grumpy gills restaurant didn’t get left out when no one bid on his basket.”  she remarked, teasingly as she shrugged her shoulders. “Couldn’t have you going after people with a butcher knife, have to save that for the crabs right?” She honestly couldn’t help herself when it came to him, a little more sassy than her usual carefree spirit. “If you must know, everything in that basket is kind of a fave so I guess it was fate or whatever. Guess you’ll just have to put with me for the afternoon.” She knew deep down she couldn’t say that she was too disappointed though, liking the little banter that went on between them more than she let on. “Anywhere in particular you want to do this or could we maybe let me pick since you made the basket?”

“Wow, so generous of you,” Zac said, quirking an eyebrow at her reply. Not that he overthought everything she said, but... well, he did tend to overthink a lot of it. She’d stood out to him among the Triton cousins ever since they were little kids, even when he’d felt he faded into the background, either because he was hanging out in the kitchens or down on the beach, catching things alone to avoid Ripley’s weird tirades. “So you’re willing to put yourself in the company of a madman with a butcher’s knife instead? Generous and brave, who knew you had it in you,” Zac teased, the tips of his ears turning slightly red when she mentioned it was all her favorite things.

He wondered idly if she’d have been able to do the same in return, put together a bunch of his favorite things, but that wasn’t really important, was it? She had a ton more friends and family than he did; it wouldn’t be surprising if she had other, more important stuff filling up her brain. “I mean, it’s kind of beachy themed,” he said pointedly. “That seems like the obvious choice, but if you think you can do better, go ahead and suggest it. Personally, though, club sandwiches never taste right unless a little bit of sand blows onto them; should have just put that as an ingredient in the first place,” he deadpanned, wondering when the hell he’d gotten so chatty. Did knowing he had uninterrupted time alone with Lucy for the first time in ages make him stupid? Maybe it did; maybe this whole thing was stupid, but for the time being it just felt exciting, and he’d worry about the stupidity factor later.

Chloe: I don't want rumors like that out there about me!! Why not start a good rumor about how, like, super talented I am instead? THAT'D be a good rumor!

Chloe: Wait, what? Who are you talking about??? Is it reallllyyy that great if all that time and attention is you just being mean to me, though? Debatable!

Kam: Well, then they're fucking idiots and that's nobody's fault but theirs. If someone has millions of followers, you really think one tiny engagement click is going to get noticed? Nah. Well, then maybe you shouldn't accuse me of pulling some dumb duck face.

Kam: I'M A DELIGHT, THANK YOU. And I could do anything you could do better. Including being outdoorsy, I'm a hell of a green thumb. Not that you'd know, since you just texted me super accusingly and went off on this giant grumpy tirade.

Romeo: "Royal circles" have nothing to do with anything. Murders happening would be available in the news to anybody, not just the rich.

Keanu: They do? Maybe I haven't been paying as much attention to fashion as you have because I've never seen a shirt with a LARGE logo on what would be the chest area on the back. If you're doing an experiment though, you can choose whatever shirt you'd like, which means you can choose how noticeable the backwardness would be.

Rocket: Of course you do 🙄 I thiiiiiink the answer is both! Because I’m so stylish and also very good at identifying stupid things!

@diamcndskylucy is maybe kind of the opposite of terrible sometimes.

I spend all my time catching it for my dad to cook because I hate it... what do you think, stupid?

It doesn’t matter what color their hair is, the most important part is ‘non-annoying’ girls.

Is that a kink or something? That’s not where hair’s supposed to be, that’s what hairnets are for.
