What: After the fireworks, East Haven 4th of July Carnival.

Simon didn't see this coming. At all. He wasn't a big fan of fireworks. He didn't mind them, but he'd never seen the point apart from showing off. So he was there when they started but he was on his way out towards what he thought was the end. He wanted to beat the traffic that would inevitably come from the show... And all of a sudden, he heard screams and he was on the floor trying to dodge panicked people who didn't see him. Stunned, he managed to get up but he didn't see the pole and oh god that hurt... He wasn't sure what had happened but he had to hold his arm. Making his way towards the exit, he had to admit to himself that there was no way he could drive out of there. He wasn't sure he had his phone on him even. Maybe it fell off. So he looked for a familiar face in the crowd. Stevie. Not someone he would have gone to but beggars can't be choosers. "What is happening?!" Simon said when he got close to her.

Say what you wanted about Cami Garza, but she wasn't a woman afraid of flying solo on a Saturday night. These days she much prefered a night in over a night out but special exceptions could be made.

Going to Southern Drawl on a whim was one of them.

She'd gotten up for all the usuals - Cotton Eyed Joe, Copperhead Road, even Texas Hold 'Em - but it was when the first notes of Austin came on that she really perked up.

Was she well into a man-hating phase? Not quite— But she'd be lying if she said the aftermath of the auction and the new release by Dasha didn't feel oddly well timed.

What better way to vent frustrations over an ex than learning every word to a song bashing one (even if the actual lyrics bore no similarities to her own life)?

Hair swaying, hips dipping, and boots stomping along she let it all go out there on the dance floor. Every last bit of guilt, stress, and heartache that'd been following her like a shadow for weeks now.

Apparently, she wasn't the only one.

When the song ended she wandered back to the bar, making a point to sidle up next to Stevie. "How the hell didn't I already know you like to dance, too?" She would've been inviting her out on a regular basis if she had. "You looked great out there."

"Somebody help me. Please..." It was a soft, desperate plea. "There's no more peanut M&Ms in the freezer"— Glasses on, laptop open, a spread of papers scattered across her lap, Bek jolted out of the dream and upright in bed, wincing from the assualt of sunlight peeping through sheer curtains.

Daylight. That was daylight. And at her front door— Another knock rattled the old wooden plank in its frame, its sound echoing throughout her otherwise silent apartment.

Shit. What time was it? Forget that, what day was it? Was she late for work?

"Coming. I'm coming!" Tripping and stumbling her way out of bed and through the room she somehow made it to the entrance in one piece.

Blinking sleep from bleary, bloodshot eyes she cracked the door open an inch. Stevie - not her landlord or, more inexplicably, her boss - stood on the other side. "Hey." A yawn cracked across her face while she stepped back, silently welcoming her in. "I'm sorry. Did I— Do we have plans?"

starter for: @stevie-adler​

Dusty had surprised himself, and possibly everybody else by arriving at the school before the doors were locked. He even found a little room for himself, first come first served basis. A rule that Dusty loved, because he was fast. Somehow. The eldest Anderson was snoring loudly, and drooling from the corner of his mouth across a set up “comfortable” area. Something he fought a kid for by pulling the blankets away and showing the child a middle finger for being a loser. His nap was interrupted by the door opening and he leaned up when he saw the familiar face of Stevie. “Normally, the idea of you waking me up is a nice one but I don’t feel like being in a very sharing mood, Miss Adler. Because I know you charged me double the other week for shitty whiskey, and don’t deny it. I didn’t even do anything.”

[saintcrment]

odette just needed a fucking drink. it felt like a never-ending loop of frustration and disdain, another agonizing day spent battling the urge to take her stencil — a tool meant for creation — and plunge it into her own eye, followed by the thought of hurling it at the inconsiderate customers at the boardwalk. it was another day steeped in the bitter taste of regret, one spent loathing the path her life had taken, and with each sunset came the gnawing uncertainty of what to do next, as if she were trapped in a maze without an exit.

as she trudged into the dimly lit bar, she found solace in the fact that it was surprisingly quiet. the usual raucous laughter and loud chatter were absent, leaving just the soft hum of the bar's ambient music. thankful for the moment of peace, she made her way to the counter, and slid onto one of the worn wooden stools that had seen better days. however, her brief moment of relief was quickly disrupted as she was met with the unfriendly gaze of the bartender. ❛ you couldn't at least pretend to be happy to see me. what's a girl gotta do to feel loved around here? ❜ it was clear that she wasn't in the mood for chatter, and that suited odette just fine; all she wanted was to drown her frustrations in a drink that would momentarily erase her sense of inadequacy and the heavy weight of her unfulfilled ambitions.

❛ i don't even like tequila, so the joke's on you. gin with a splash of water. ❜

location: the drunken poet

the bar had dwindled down to a handful of regulars and a few solitary patrons nursing their last drinks. the drunken laughter from a group of men in the corner only served to sharpen the dull ache in her head. with just a half hour until closing, stevie’s mind was already on autopilot, her face resting in its usual scowl. she had worked enough late shifts to know that the final stretch always dragged. stevie shot a glance at the clock, watching the seconds tick by slower. thirty minutes. thirty agonizing minutes. the bell above the door chimed, signaling yet another late arrival, and stevie’s shoulders slumped. “of course,” she muttered under her breath, tossing the rag over her shoulder as she turned to face the new patron. “make it quick,” she called, her tone cautionary. “i ran out of tequila and patience an hour ago.”

Min-ji was walking to her apartment when she spotted a familiar face at her own door. “Stevie?” she called out, walking toward her with a smile on her face. “It’s been awhile. I’ve been seeing more of your brother than you,” she teased, before her eyebrows raised. “What are you doing sitting out here?”

[thesimonhawthorne]

While he was still quite wary amongst the pain and the confusion, he was glad she was here. Asking for help wasn't exactly his forte, and he had no idea what he'd have done if he'd had to find a way out or a solution to this alone with one functioning arm. He watched her go and tried to feel his phone in his pocket with his elbow. It might still be there, but he couldn't reach it either way. When she came back, he wasn't surprised with the news. He was surprised by her offer however. "Alright..." He had no other solution so he wasn't going to protest. So he let her drive him. "You can just drop me off, you've done enough."

Stevie looked him over for a moment not to make sure he was telling the truth about being able to survive without her because she felt fully that he believed it, but she wanted to check over his wounds and make sure it wasn't just shock that was talking. After a moment, she stood up. "I'll be right back." Stevie told him and went through the crowd to try to find anyone providing some medical attention. However all them were busy with the fires or other injuries so she went back to Simon. "They're all busy." She looked at him. "Let me drive you. We'll get there faster than waiting." She' just text Johnny what she was doing so he wouldn't worry, but she wanted to help her younger brother.

[thesimonhawthorne]

While he left very out of it, he could imagine that he wasn't in the worst shape the firefighters would see tonight, so it was easy to assume that "busy" was lowballing. They were probably swarmed. He also knew that it hurt real bad and it would be hard to do anything so he nodded. "I can survive for a few minutes without you, yes." He sighed and grimaced. "Thanks."

"Probably." She said and sighed as she knew he was right. The firefighters were probably busy not only helping others, but also putting out the actual fires that were around the park from the fireworks. However, he needed help and who was she to not try to get him that? "I don't think so. I can run over and get someone if you're fine here?" She suggested, not wanting to leave him alone, but she would if it meant he would get the help he needed.

[thesimonhawthorne]

He was still so very confused that he let himself be guided with no protest. His tolerance to pain wasn't great, it had never needed to be. He grimaced as he listened. He hoped everyone he knew was fine. Or not too badly injured at least. It all happened so fast for him that he realised he was probably asking for a lot. He nodded. "Okay, I see..." He looked around as she talked about the medics. "Probably... They're probably also really busy right now... Is it far?"

She carefully led him towards the parking lot and once they were close to some benches, she had him sit. He looked horrible and she hoped there wasn't a long wait to get him out of there. "It's all been a blur." She said as she sat next to him. "Other than Johnny, I can't pinpoint anyone exactly I saw. I just couldn't leave. I wanted to help as much as I could." She said before shaking her head. "Nothing that I know of. I have no idea how it all happened." Looking at the carnival, it was still in a state of chaos as people tried helping. "I should go find you a medic. I'm sure the firefighters station is still up and going, right?"

[thesimonhawthorne]

Simon was lost, confused and honestly a little scared. He didn't like how many people were still around, which made him feel like at any moment, he could end up on the floor again. They do warn you of crowds and panics, but Simon never thought it would happen to him. You never do, do you? He still didn't know how he felt about the addition of Stevie to the family tree, apart from the fact that it wasn't exactly positive, but he needed help. Clearly. "Oh god..." He whispered. Things made a little more sense now, and he started getting worried about people that may have been on site. He let himself be guided by Stevie to the parking lot, still holding his arm, as he was in no position to protest. As he sat down somewhere, he asked "did you see anyone else? Any news?"

The whole place was crazy. Everyone rushing to try to get out of there and once she knew her kids were safe, she was trying to help others get out of there too. Stevie was gesturing to someone where the exit was when Simon caught her eye. Just the look of him made her heart sink and she rushed over to her younger brother. They hadn't talked or really anything since the news broke, but she still cared about him. Even if they weren't family, she would. "The fireworks started to fire towards the crowd. Everyone's trying to escape." She said as she looked him over. "Let's get you to the parking lot, okay? We can wait for an ambulance."
