"No, but that would be a hilarious thing to do for my bachelorette," Scarlette mused, cocking her head to the side as she pictured her and her bridal party on a pub crawl through the middle district in shiny dresses. "For the wedding, Lui and I were talking about a spring-inspired colour scheme. You know, green and pink pastels, that vibe."

"Yes, and a dress for me," Esti chuckled. "Honestly, the only way someone could outshine you is if they bedazzled themselves before the event. It's not like you're gonna be putting us in disco prom dresses."

Scarlette set her phone on the table and offered Sadie a reassuring smile. "We'll start with a short interview, although I hesitate to call it that; it's very unstructured and very informal. It's more like us having a conversation about why you joined CU and what your goals and aspirations are. If you're comfortable with it, the conversation will be recorded, but it's also totally fine if you're not. I can take notes." She set her camera bag down on the table. "After that, I'll take a few candid portraits of you. You don't have to do anything particular, and we can take breaks if you feel self-conscious in front of the camera. I can also make it anonymous if you'd rather not show your face."

Sadie sat the table with Scarlette, she was told there would be someone coming by to do a profile on her for the Citizen Uprising social Media page. she just didn't think it be Scarlette. She at least felt a little at ease knowing she wouldn't fluff up her profile but it was also a bit daunting. "So, Where did you want to start with this...You're the one who dose this more so...you lead the way"

"I can definitely help you out with a new wardrobe," Pandora offered, having another sip of her tea. "I was responsible for buying most of my late husband's clothes before he passed. If you give me your measurements, I could have some things sent over; or I can accompany you to one of the stores in the area. My brother-in-law owns a thrift shop that I suggest stopping by." She gave Chris a warm smile. "You're always a very gracious host. It seems you can take the man out of the upper district, but you can't take the upper district out of the man, even if you can make him look very different."

He sighed went she mentioned trying to get him out of the house "I just don't want to risk my sisters safety or one of my dad's former employees seeing me..." he shrugged "I already look so different from how I used to look I guess my clothes would just need to change." He was always wearing either dress clothes or lounge clothes but wit his new look he'd probably go edgier. Chris waved his hand at making tea for her "That's nothing I can make tea with my eyes closed." he chuckled. "been doing that since I was a boy.." with a smile he nodded at her "Then I will get started on that"

Pandora managed to largely maintain her composure at the loud sound effect, with nothing but a quiet, amused smile breaking her otherwise impassive expression. She dropped her gaze to the board, thinking for a moment before making her next move, then picking up her drink again. "I have very limited experience with firearms," she admitted. "My late husband didn't think it was necessary for me to learn. My sister-in-law has been encouraging me to pick it up, but she's a former Navy SEAL, so that's not surprising." She looked up and held his gaze. "Besides, I would rather learn from you."

Nicolas opted for moving a pawn, rolling his eyes at the dramatic boom that played when it landed. "Mysterious...right," he said dryly, the fact Mercury seemed aware of his preference for playing black wasn't lost on him. He'd been taking a small sip before setting his glass down as he looked at her again. "Now that's actually intriguing," he said, "It be unfair and completely irresponsible not to include lessons. Any experience with firearms or are we starting from zero?"

"That sounds like a solid plan," Danny agreed. "I can also prep some materials for you to give to Cade. If it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out, and that's completely fine. But I would personally feel a lot better about the program if the kids here were at least be offered the opportunity first." She took a small breath and smiled before digging into her food. "Okay, that's enough shop talk for now. How are you doing?"

"Well... you're not wrong there. It definitely seems like any political role is filled with someone who comes from a lot more privilege than most of the kids here," Riley mused. "I don't think it could hurt - or at least see if anyone expresses interest in it. I'd feel bad accepting it if none of the kids actually care to follow through."

Until now, Danny's evening hadn't been particularly out of the ordinary. A friend from school had asked if she wanted to attend a party, she had happily accepted, and for about an hour, she had engaged in pleasant small talk with people she did not know, but whom had all seemed perfectly polite. Seeing Aslan there was a surprise, as was the sharp tone he used when he spoke to her. "I—" she started, not getting any further than that before she was being pulled into a corner. What on Earth was going on?

She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "It's a party. I was invited." Still, the concern in his voice sounded genuine, which threw her off even more; but it did make her take him seriously enough to lower her own voice. "What do you mean it's not safe?"

who: danny ( @chaosandcrimson )

where: some estate on the upper side

events like these ones were hit or miss. aslan either found it hard to get through because of boredom or because he was on edge, rarely anything in between. it was a necessary evil if he wanted to keep working. the people filling that estate house were either incredibly wealthy or powerful and almost all of them were some level of dangerous. aslan would like to think he was one of the most threatening but he knew that wasn't true.

he was mid drink when he saw her pass by and if he didn't have such a controlled composure he might’ve spit his drink out onto the few men he was talking to. what was danny. doing there? he kept track of where she went and waited for a polite moment to excuse himself to go find her. which he did, a room over by the bar and some music. “what are you doing here?” he asked, somewhat accusatory and grabbed her hand to pull her off to a corner of the room no one else was in so they could talk. “it isn't safe for you here.” this time his tone dropped with concern. careful worry for someone who was creeping last his many walls every time they were together.

Freja kissed him again, running her hands through his hair before settling them behind his neck, pulling back far enough to look at his face. The arrangement that they had worked for her; they were together when Herc was in town, they were broken up when he was on location, and nobody's feelings ever got hurt because there were no feelings involved. But she would be lying to herself if she said that she hadn't missed him. "I ordered from that Asian fusion place we went to last time you were home," she replied, leaning her forehead against his. "And I've got a few vintage bottles in the wine rack."

Herc had done the usual tour of being back home, checking on his siblings though dodging paparazzi made it easier said than done. Or he was just using it as an excuse to keep visits short, why Theo wanted to talk about their youngest brother he didn't stick around to find out. More than eager to see the one person he didn't have to actually worry about feelings with. Laughing as he caught Freja, hands hooking under her legs, "Well that's one way to say hello," he said chuckling. Walking inside he used his foot to kick the door closed, "You take care of ordering in for us or did you want me to take out out tonight?"

There was a part of Carrie that didn't want to ask these questions. She wanted him, he wanted her, and that was all she really needed to know. But when he had broken up with her, it had caught her completely off guard, and she wasn't sure if she could go through something like that again. "Wait—what?" she asked, her eyebrows furrowing as she replayed what Topher had said in her head. She could understand not wanting to pull her into a long distance relationship. She could even understand believing that she was fine, because she had, for all intents and purposes, acted that way.

What she couldn't understand was that breaking up with her hadn't even been his idea in the first place. "You... You broke up with me because your manager told you to?" She dropped her gaze to their hands, swallowing hard as she thought about what to say next, her free hand instinctively going to pet the puppy in her lap. When she looked back up at him, there was a mixture of hurt and disappointment in her eyes. "You made it seem like it was your idea. I wasn't even sure if I agreed with the points you were making, but I didn't say anything because I thought it was what you wanted, and I didn't want to seem like... Immature and naive. And there was also a part of me that assumed you just didn't want me anymore and you were trying to let me down easy."

Topher had a small smirk as he saw the familiar blush on Carrie's cheeks. Though it faded as his brow furrowed before he winced at her line of questioning. He was half tempted to let go of her hand and lean back, but the other half was scared over her reaction. "Well I was still on tour you know...," he started shifting uncomfortably, "Breaking up just to pull you into an LDR didn't really seem fair and you seemed like you were doing fine...Then I was barely enjoying skating and you found something you were passionate about...didn't want to drag you down with me..."

Trailing off again he gave another shrug, debating what to say. "To be honest I didn't even want to break up in the first place. But my manager got it into my head you'd be better off and it was selfish to have you waiting around for me." It wasn't the only thing he'd listened to his manager about but it was the one he was still the most upset about.

"It definitely feels like we end up pantsless through no fault of our own more often than other people do," Freja mused, having another sip of her margarita before looping her arm through Mia's and pulling her in the direction of an food stall that had caught her eye. She flashed her friend a bright smile. "Oooh, early Halloween party! You can sign me up. Is there a theme I should take into consideration when planning my costume? I'll be attending stag, since Herc is still on location until November." She let out a long breath. "I get what you mean, though. I'm getting pretty bored of casual hookups myself. I like being single, but doesn't it feel like it all starts blending together?"

"have you noticed that fashion emergencies happen to us often? or is it that we just keep getting stranded without pants for some reason? either way, we're facing misfortunes that we don't deserve." mia couldn't help but chuckle, following closely behind freja to where their precious margaritas were located. mia would never say no to a good margarita, and as she took the drink from her friend, she couldn't help but flash her a friendly smile. "nothing new or exciting happening in my life, unfortunately. i'm currently planning a halloween party, but it'll be a couple weeks before the actual holiday because that's very on brand for me. i've been avoiding casual hookups lately because they've been boring me."

All day, Freja had been too excited to sit still. She had managed to channel some of that energy into working out, taking a long shower, doing her extended beauty routine, and cleaning her apartment, but she was rapidly running out of things to keep herself busy with. Which was why, as soon as she heard the key in the lock, she found herself running into the hallway. "Herc!" she squealed, jumping up into his arms and wrapping herself around him, pressing her lips to his before he could even fully step inside.

Odessa walked up to the kitchen door and leaned against the frame. "Alright, I have good ol' fashioned rum, and a bottle of some obscenely sweet liqueur that was given to me as a gift," she said, holding up each bottle in turn. "Which one do you want?"
