                 BALLROOM, some time in the middle of the night ---    she squealed a little when she finally saw roxanne through the crowd. she had elbowed and stepped on a few people’s feet as she made her way to her.    “ i’ve been looking for you! Where’s your date? it doesn’t matter. I ran out of drink tickets! “   //    @roxyes​

[ninaparkk]

                BALLROOM, some time in the middle of the night ---    “ awww. “    nina places a hand on her heart, features softening by ten folds as she sees a sight of louis.   “ my baby, “   she coles,   “ look at you! i hate how this is probably one of the few times i’m going to see you in a suit. “   //    @redgrve​

[ninaparkk]

              BALLROOM, some time in the middle of the night ---    “ guess who’s got more drinks. “    she grins at emmett as he approaches him, a slightly goofy one which nina rarely wears.   “ where’s your date, em? “   //   @emmettblack​

[ninaparkk]

                BALLROOM, some time in the middle of the night ---   a sigh escapes nina’s lips, throwing the train of her dress behind her as she makes her way to the bar, handing over the last of her drink ticket to the bartender. her pout goes deeper as she watches the bartender make her drink. spotting danny on the far end, she walks towards him.    “ please tell me you know someone who brought extra drinks. “    //   @dxnnyboi​

[ninaparkk]

                BALLROOM, some time in the middle of the night ---   “ for one second, i thought that the free drinks were taking its toll on me. looks like we’re not avoiding a certain boy anymore. “    she wiggles her brows at her, teasing her before looking at her suspiciously.  “ what change your mind? “   //    @mariguinto​

[ninaparkk]

                                       BALLROOM, some time in the middle of the night --- already done with her free drinks, nina pulled away from lohri just a little bit because she was getting agitated for not having enough.    “ you look gorgeous, maxine. “    she says, getting herself distracted with shiny things. nina gives another nod of approval before paying attention to her diamond arm chain bracelet she got for her birthday which was a day before.   “ how much are you going to bet on having this attempt to control alcohol consumption is going to be a failure? “     //    @brandtmax​

NINA PARK @ CASINO ROYALE PARTY

[ninaparkk]

scottrileys​:

scott can only laugh at nina being dramatic because whilst it can sometimes be a pain in the ass, most of the time it was pretty adorable. “ well, i’m glad you did, because this is gonna be a productive afternoon! ” he brings her cart in front of one of one of the machines. “ you’ll be a laundry master. huge turn on. ” to be honest, girls like nina could do anything and it’d be a turn on. must be the scary thing. but when she jumps on a counter, he walks over and attempts to pluck her off and onto her feet. “ you’re not gonna learn by just sitting! c’mon, let’s separate your clothes. never mix your whites with other colours. ”

              she tries to hide the fact that she is blushing by rolling her eyes. his compliment only works because they had history. “ well, don’t get your hopes but then again, i’m good at everything i do. “   although looking at the pile of clothes she had, nina is a little lost. she had all the spy training but not for doing laundry. nina lets him get her off from the comforts of the seat and put her right back on her feet.   “ okay. that seems easy enough. “    she goes to open her bag of clothes and starts separating the whites from the colored.    “ and if i have this type of clothes? “   she asks, raising a pair of leggings with thick diagonal white and black pattern.

[ninaparkk]

                nina would always get stuck in this loop, either the darkness or the blood in her hand that doesn’t belong to her. the lingering scent of damp soil or the cut grass or the rustic iron smell of blood linger and that was enough to suffocate her in her sleep, leaving her tossing and turning. that should be me. that should be me. no, she was not the target, maybe but nina would find herself wishing it was her for two reasons; one rose had been a better person than her and two, she didn’t feel like being left behind. her aunt’s betrayal had hurt more than she was willing to admit and so, she finds herself in the tunnel again, chasing after the light where her cousin had gone through. she holds hazel’s arms a little tighter but in her head, it was just her trying to grasp something in the dark.    “ that should be me. “    she says, eyes partially closed but she is still in a sleepy trance.

@ninaparkk​

okay, so maybe it was weird that he stayed up at night just to make sure his friend was sleeping safely. but after everything that had gone down, he couldn’t even be sure for his own safety when nina closed her eyes. sure, he’d use that as an excuse. growing up, he took care of many as they tossed and turned through nightmares, making sure they didn’t make noise to wake up whatever parental figure would be upset about it. he was used to it, taking care of people without sleeping. and nina already had bad dreams, and talked in her sleep, he could only imagine what was coming now. and then, she started speaking. and he sat up in his bunk, looking across at the one she slept in. and then, she stood up out of bed, and started for the door. panicking, hazel stood up, trying to gently guide her back to her own bed. 

[ninaparkk]

             she looks at the cat for a moment, trying to remember if it was something she has seen before then she shrugged.   “ not my cat or anyone i know of. “    she didn’t really pay attention to at least half the students in gallagher to know.   “ it could be anyones. i feel like gallagher has more animals than in any other pet store. “   she looks at the cat one more than then perks her brow.    “ no collar? “

OPEN STARTER / @gallagherstart​​

they  don’t  like  to  think  of  themselves  as  particularly  distract-able  —–  until  a  someone  decides  to  start  gnawing  at  their  feet.  they  turn  to  pick  up  the  cat,  holding  the  little  thing  to  their  chest.  it  takes  them  a  moment  to  catch  another’s  eye.  “this  yours?”  if  not,  they  might  have  to  keep  the  animal  for  themselves.

[ninaparkk]

               “ i’m always up to distract a fellow. “   she winks at her before leaning back to her seat.   “ i have a few tricks on my sleeve. unless, you already have something in your mind. “

@ninaparkk​

“i need the stress of finals gone. at least for tonight.” she looked over at nina. “wanna help with that?”

[ninaparkk]

aspenpalmer​:

she couldn’t help but laugh as the flustered and confused man stood up. people here should know by now not to get too close to certain people during finals. there was a lot going on in everyone’s mind. and even more kids needing innocent bystanders to practice on. he walked away though. looked like a medic student who wouldn’t know what to do with someone like nina. “got it. yep.” she took a couple notes she knew she would remember on a moment’s notice. “i’m so fucking pumped for this physical final. i think i’m gonna ace it.”

                    nina felt zero remorse about the guy she just pinned down. as she let them go, she gave them a little push, implying that she didn’t need his service anymore. no complaints can be heard from him ( aside from the little cries of pain ), maybe he knows that he should have been prepared. nina was not as pumped for the finals as aspen was but her enthusiasm warranted a nod of approval from nina. she would rather see people get excited rather than expecting themselves to fail. a part of her thought people who dread for exams has less chances to survive the real thing.   “ i wish the rest are the same. not seeing people getting their but kicked isn’t fun. “     

[ninaparkk]

“ Whenever you go ,  just always remember              That you got a home for now and forever                          And if you get low, just call me whenever                                        This is my oath to you ”

nina is feeling all things at once. of all people, out of anyone in the family, it has to be elise.

her aunt elise didn't have to tell her what she had gotten herself into. she didn't have to tell her this was forced on her hands. she knows her aunt elise. she knows that if she had other choice, she wouldn't betray them.

at least, that's what she keeps telling herself. her aunt elise has always been soft. they said she is weak. too emotional for her own good.

maybe, the brotherhood saw her power and used it to their advantage. at this point, she is not sure.

a million things have been running in her mind and she doesn't like to be alone in with her own thoughts. as she heads for the stairs to go to her old room, she realizes she is seeking for the wrong company. she doesn't need to be around people to be vulnerable with, she needs to drown everything in alcohol, call it a day and moved on. that's what she does best anyway.

nina takes a step back and headed somewhere else instead. she doesn't know where exactly but there's got to be a wine cellar full of het favorite posion, right?

[ninaparkk]

               “ oh shit. “     nina could hear the usher and alicia key’s song blasting through the torres floor hallway. as she walks closer to her destination, the sound gets louder and she had a feeling she was going to be in for a treat. and true enough, she found her best friend doing body rolls, doing more dancing than doing an actual cleaning which only meant that she had found the bottle she left the last time she had a sleepover. nina leaned by the doorframe and started taking a video of maeve while singing along to the music. she did a little body roll herself as she entered the room until she reaches her bed and flops on it.   “ you found it, huh? “

maeve always found solace in cleaning the dorm room. it was ‘ perfect distraction ’ she would say. but tipsy cleaning was something she hasn’t done. she’d personally would like to thank the half empty whiskey bottle she found tucked under her bed. how that ended up there ? she wasn’t sure but it definitely made cleaning more fun. having airpods on took the experience to a whole new level and made maeve feel like she was in her little private club, dancing and singing to usher’s my boo. “ it started when we were younger you were mine— ” she stopped in the middle of the room, with her broom before belting out, “ MY BOOOOOOOOO ” doing body rolls to the beat of the song,  completely forgetting she had opened the door and windows earlier to air the room out. // @gallagherstart​

calvinchips​:

“ you ready for this? “    calvin chuckled, putting on the wrist wraps,    “ do we use the sticks or do we use actual knives? “    he stands, picking up an eskrima stick and one of the knives he carried around him.    “ are we even allowed to use actual knives? i’m still not very familiar with that part of the rules. “    he and nina tended to argue a lot, especially when it came to academic stuff, but they just do stupid shit together outside of class so he wasn’t sure if this would be considered a spar or if this was supposed to be an actual fight.

starter for @ninaparkk

                at his question, nina simply let out a huff.   “ are you ready for this? “    she bounce the question back at him with a smirk.  she’s far from underestimating chips but she had trust in her skills, all those years of training before gallagher usually pulls through.    “ what? scared i might actually stab you for real? “     she giggles a bit as she shakes her head.    “ i didn’t even bring anything with me. feel free to use anything. “    she shrugs but there was air of confidence hanging at her words.    “ or both. “

“wait no- that’s not right.” she was out of breath, brow furrowed as she went over what they’d been taught in class. “i think it’s leg, grab, fall back. right? or is it grab, leg, fall back?” she looked up at nina for confirmation. 

                    “ it really depends. “     sure, the curriculum would say the same thing. usually, the lesson plan is black and white but her training says any move calls from different situation.   “ if you’re doing offense, it’s leg, grab, fall since you have to use the leg to grab. watch….”    she told her before attacking the nearest guy, doing the maneuver she was talking about. she looked at her.   “ did you get it? “   she asked her, ignoring the cry of the guy she randomly attacked.
