evelyn wheezes slightly from the force of the breakdown, trying to catch her breath before responding. âclover fucking⊠god. iâm such an idiot, what the fuck.â she says between sobs, hiding her face in her hands as all she can manage to do is release all of her immediate reactions. everything that sheâs kept in since just a few hours ago at the club, as the reality began settling in. and she can only imagine how hysterical and incoherent she was coming across as to the other, but none of it mattered. nothing seemed to matter now because she lost the one person she never thought she could. her own alcohol-induced actions getting in the way once again. and while she shouldnât be surprised â this was far from the first time her dependencies have gotten in the way of relationships â she never thought it would lead her to fuck up something so great with her best friend. fuck. âclover doesnât want to fucking talk to me anymore, i fucked up so bad, shit.â just expressing this sentiment, having to confront this, is enough to release another wave of tears and emotions.Â
all atticus can hear is incoherent strings of words that seem to barely form a sentence at all. this, possibly, isnât just evelynâs fault, so heâs really trying to focus now, really trying to be there for the younger girl. she clearly needs it. « hey, » he coos, wrapping her in his arms, pulling her closer. it doesnât matter that he instantly feels her tears stain his shirt or that theyâre supposed to get the booth ready. it fades away until all thatâs left is evelyn and her apparent need for a friend. atticus, happily, wants to be just that. Â
« breathe, please. breathe, treasure. iâm here. » heâs no clover, and whatever went down between them instantly worries atticus â he knows their love for one another. the thought of that being over is unfathomable, no matter what it is evelyn is referring to. « you got me. talk to me. »

his smile is too big for his face, but she means that in the best way. for someone that can look so stoic, his smile completely changed his face; lights it up like a kid on christmas morning. sheâd like to see it more often. luckily teasing always seemed to pull it out of him. âiâd call you a pussy for not taking the challenge, but iâll be nice and drink your drink for you.â her smile matches his, large and wide, as he pulls her in closer. âbecause iâm the best, atty. youâre lucky.â for what? her time, her attention? doesnât matter. she was the one that was already whipped. simone angles towards him more, allowing her knees to lean against his legs in the process. sheâs never had a problem with closeness. âyouâre not too bad yourself, you know. youâre suffering through a cheesy hellscape for me.â it doesnât go unnoticed. maybe he deserves a reward for his trouble.
atticus frowns at simoneâs comment, but heâs clearly not offended. « you know, iâd take that as a compliment, » he counters, « because iâm almost certain any pussy could take a pounding far better than i can. » he grins, taking a sip of the mulled wine. itâs not what heâd usually go for, but it beats his first choice. maybe simone had been onto something from the very start.  « i actually kinda like it. i mean, whatâs not to like ? » he places a gentle, yet friendly kiss on her forehead. heâs lucky the girl responds to his seemingly random acts of affection so well. « i get to spend my evening drinking with a beautiful woman. any man would kill to be in my shoes. »

dylan stares at atticusâ pumpkin for a beat longer, before shaking his head. âyeah, okay piccato,â he scoffs, looking back at his own pumpkin. he had started off attempting to carve rick from rick and morty, but chunks of the pumpkin that were meant to stay on the pumpkin had fallen out, and it was beginning to look like a giant pumpkin mess. âitâs not done yet,â dylan countered, sitting up a little straighter on the picnic bench. âjust wait and see.âÂ
how did people make this look so easy ? atticus gazes around, impressive pumpkins being carved all around him, and in defeat he views his own. not much of a masterpiece, to put it lightly. « do you mean ... » he begins in response to dylanâs comment, but catches himself. heâs not even sure piccato isnât right. « if it is a car crash iâm actually quite impressed, wolff. i can really see it forming. »Â

who: dylan & atticus (@attvcusâ)
when: saturday oct 3
where: fall festival, the pumpkin carving competitionÂ
he didnât need to win â although the $50 gift card would be nice â but he did need, at least, to beat atticus. he wasnât sure where the competition had stemmed from, or when, but as he glanced over at the boyâs pumpkin beside him, there was an overwhelming urge to create something better. an obvious challenge, considering dylan had limited artistic ability. âwhatâs that even supposed to be, man?â he asks, his unsubtle way of trying to throw him off course.Â
atticus canât really brag about his artistic abilities, but he looks over at dylanâs pumpkin and itâs clear neither can the other. he feels a bit better about himself when his attention returns to his own pumpkin, but confidence falters slightly at the question heâs asked. itâs supposed to be a castle, but heâs not about to tell dylan that. « itâs abstract art, dude. i donât expect everyone to get it, » he mocks, but heâs never been much of a liar. « and whatâs that, huh ? a car crash  ?»

starring: atticus eugene young ( @attvcusâ ), evelyn yun
setting: fall festival booth
nothing felt real to evelyn. usually when you sleep or eat or drink water, thereâs some sort of nourishment that takes place. you feel refreshed, everything becomes a little bit clearer. but for evelyn, who was coming down from her hours of drunkenness, a high of at least a couple different drugs, no sleep between her friday night out and her early saturday morning shift and a devastating, debilitating best friendship breakup between herself and clover⊠she felt dehydrated from the whole situation. emotionally and physically wrecked. she surprised herself that she even managed to remember to show up to her shift â though, an hour late, but thatâs beside the point. she felt numb, mind both vacant and recycling through the crude memories from just hours ago. setting her stuff down at the booth and releasing a sigh, she barely processed the other at the booth. finally having a couple moments to herself after a very, very long and painful night, it felt like her body just needed a release as silent tears flowed down her face before she could hold them back. hands coming to her face, the silent tears soon became more audible through shaky inhales and huffs.
crouching down and curling herself around her knees as the tears progressed into intense sobs, her mind finally alerts her of atticusâ presence and all she wants is to curl up and hide forever. âfuck my fucking life, iâm sorry.â and the sentence doesnât make much sense, but itâs all she can say to express her mental state.
one could say atticus is present, but that isnât entirely true. atticus, at the booth, no sleep from last night ( entirely fault of his own ) is barely standing up, though somehow heâs still grateful for the early shift. there wonât be many visitors this early and so they can spend time getting the booth ready and looking all fancy â why atticus even got this shift and this task is truly beyond him.
he does his best though, even only half awake and half working. thatâs why evelynâs presence and initial breakdown takes him a moment to process, but when he does he quickly pulls himself together. he crouches down next to the other, one hand coming up to rest on her back. « hey, treasure, whatâs wrong ? »

the boo garden is cute in a tacky way. fake candles flicker at every table thatâs too close to the next one and homemade (or - perhaps more accurately - party city made) cobwebs drape between chairs and pumpkin shaped lights. had she been with frankie or evelyn, she wouldâve forced them to pose with her next to the less-than-terrifying scarecrow in the corner, but she isnât with her girls. sheâs with atticus and he doesnât like his drink. her lip curls into a smirk/smile hybrid and she watches him over the brim of her mulled wine. âi told you the butterbeer was going to be too sweet.â spiked with whiskey or not, it was a sugar bomb. one that sheâd gladly take. âyeah, iâll trade you, but only because youâre so kind.â her lips pucker before a smile creases into dimples and the trade is made. âdonât say iâve never done anything for you.â
heâs not sure heâd be here if not for simone, to be honest. itâs not really his scene, and with someone else heâd might be longing for his bed, his pascal and a bottle of whiskey by now, but heâs not. atticus is enjoying himself, which in itself isnât a rarity, but considering the circumstances it actually takes him a bit by surprise. « you know you canât tell me stuff like that. it just sounds like a challenge to me, » he points out with a crooked smile. « wouldnât dream of it, nini. » atty wraps an arm around her, affectionately pulling her closer. « might even argue that you do more than i deserve. »

WHERE:Â Â BOOÂ GARDEN.
WHEN:Â Â SATURDAYÂ EVENING.
WHO:  SIMONE POWELL.  @fromsimonewithloveâ
heâs already two drinks in and the night is still young, but atticus doesnât seem worried about it. if he has one talent ( and he doesnât, really ) itâs holding down his liquor. not really something one should be proud of. however, spending the evening with simone and all, he has decided to play it easy tonight â she has seen him in less elegant moods often enough, and she deserves to have a good time. « this is probably the worst drink iâve ever had, » atticus admits, scrunching his nose as he looks over at the cup in simoneâs hand. « uh, i mean, itâs delicious. wanna trade tho ? out of the kindness of my heart. »

normally iâd make an intro graphic but i donât think i have it in me anymore rip also iâm sorry in advance for everything under the cut
i was too stupid to save the app so unfortunately you wonât be getting that. anyway hereâs the:
đđđđđ
triggers: shooting, murder, death, drugs, suicide attempt.
born  atticus  eugene  young,  atticus  spent  his  early  life  growing  up  in  a trailer  park with  his  parents  and  his  younger  sister,  olive. it wasnât a bad childhood per say, but poverty was definitely not a fun experience. atticus and olive were both very good in school, constantly trying to prove themselves and aiming for a better life for their very loving and warm parents.
atticus was 14, olive only 9 when their dad, an employee at a gas station, was killed during a shootout/robbery. it was heartbreaking â they had no money for a proper funeral and their mother, unemployed at the time, struggled to make ends meet. atticus and olive made a habit out of going to school on an empty stomach, their teachers offering whatever little they brought for lunch.
it was at this point atticus started planning out his life â he was determined to do everything in his power to lead the perfect life, saving his family and future generations. he made 5 year plans, plotting it down to the very last detail. he worked tirelessly, sacrificing his social life in the process, thinking he was doing everything right. olive saw, of course, that atticus was slowly losing himself to the pressure he had put on himself and was turning to alcohol and drugs to cope with it all. still, he pushed on.
the night before the final exam of his 4th semester, atticus accidentally ( at least thatâs what heâll say if you ask him ) took an overdose and was discovered by his roommate who immediately got him to the hospital. a few days later atticus dropped out, with some push from olive who just wanted to see him happy and healthy.
now atticus has little contact with any of his family members, but he checks in on his sister from time to time, who is pursuing the law degree atticus could never finish. she was always the brightest one anyway, and will succeed where atticus could only fail â that boy, ever the family disappointment.
đđđđđđđđđđđ
atticus has a good heart. heâs a very warm and affectionate person, always  extending a hand to anyone in need. he loves forming deep emotional connections to people. the downside is the abandonment issues that come  with it.
heâs not one to argue, never one with loud opinions, but heâs vocal about social and racial injustices on social media. definitely open for a conversation and not particularly stubborn. he knows to pick his fights.
sadly, this often translates to him not really fighting for anything at all. heâs not exactly lazy, but nothing seems to really interest him anymore, nothing gets him excited or angry or passionate. he has this very indifferent air to him, fueled also by his drug use, making him distant at times.
atticus has no time for bullshit. heâs a very honest person and will tell you exactly what he feels when he feels it. stepped on your toes, did he ? he doesnât care. either you get over it or you get over him, it doesnât matter to him either way. this bluntness has made him prone to hurting those he loves.
đ
đđ đđđđ
has  a  pet  snake  called  pascal.  has  had  him  for  7  months  and  got him  whilst he was  high  out  of  his  mind.  atticus  is  stupid  scared of snakes  and  forgot  all about  pascal  until  he  woke  up  the  next morning  and  the  poor  little  thing  was slithering  its  way  around  in his  bed,  causing  atticus  to  nearly  shit  himself.  he cried  for  the next  hour  or  so.  now  he  loves  the  snake  like  it  was  his  own  son.
he  can  play  bass  guitar,  but  it  kinda  bores  him  so  he  rarely  does.
loves  jorja  smith.  like,  LOVES  her.  sheâs  his  ideal  type  for  sure and the obsession  is  lowkey  weird.
atticus is like surprisingly good at cooking and he kinda loves it. when heâs stressed heâll either get stoned out of his mind or heâll cook. or both.
đđđđđđđđđđđ
literally up for whatever but here are just a few i thought could be fun idk
blast from the past
atticus is born and raised in washington and would maybe know a muse that is from the state too. donât have to be close in age, maybe they knew olive ? either way, itâs someone who would know about atticusâ past, probably the only one as he never talks about it. they could be on good terms or bad terms, i vibe with either.
roommate
thereâs  no  way  atticus  has  the  funds  to  live  alone,  but  his  poor  roommate  is gonna  be  traumatized  from  living  with  this  man.  atticus  has  no  system  when  it comes  to  literally  anything  and  heâs  about  the  messiest  person  on  earth.  heâll sleep  in  his  dirty  laundry  for  days  and  chain-smoke  out  of  his  window  and  not leave  his  room  until  thereâs  a  crisis,  but  heâll  also  cook dinner  as  an  apology for the  line  of  coke  he  left  on  the  counter  from  that  night  he  had  that unannounced  party.  heâs  a  good  guy,  but  has  no  direction  or  ambition.  his roommate  is  gonna  have  to  deal  with  a  man  who  literally just  exists  and  fucks up  constantly.  oh,  and  also,  thereâs  a  snake.
fwb
probably  the  closest  thing  he  ever  got  to  a  girlfriend/boyfriend,  maybe  the closest  heâll  ever  get.  atticus  is  very  loving  and  physical  too,  so  this  person must  be  okay  with  some  public  display  of  affection.  heâll  treat  them  as  their significant  other,  but  without  the  feelings  â  really  this  person  is  just  a  really great  friend  that  he  sleeps  with.  a  win-win  for  everyone.
