"okay, i think we save the bacanora for when it's not sad bitch hours, and we go with the gin. it's the highest proof of the options, so it'll get you drunkest fastest. i can whip up that aviation if you want it. i had a bartending gig in college and i've got a family friend who's bougie as fuck and definitely taught me a lot before i even started the bartending."

"oh, i don't think i've ever had bacanora. but i'm always game for tequila. i am not a bourbon girlie, at all, but i do like gin. love a good aviation if i'm being really pretentious when i'm drinking. so i am down with whatever gets me the drunkest the fastest."

@constellaticnsx​ sent:  “why can't you just be honest with me? with yourself?” idk if you wanted these here but if it’s okay this for jamie from emily bc apparently we’re in the mood for starting shit

“if i’m so incapable of being honest, what makes you think i can even be trusted to answer that question?” they shoot back. a deflection, as always, which only proves her point. but where do they even begin when it comes to honesty? they’re trying, sometimes. more often than not. but gods know jamie hasn’t lived a life that has lead to large amounts of honesty. his parents, after all, spent most of his childhood lying about being in love.

billie laughs, lifting her arms up to wrap around his neck and meet him halfway. she returns his kiss happily, longing for them moments with tucker. "doesn't seem very cloak and dagger," she teases when they eventually break apart. "felt a little obvious actually." because she can't let him get away with anything. "of course you can stay over," she says, pausing after to realize how much it doesn't bother her how easily he fits into her life; to their lives. billie rolls her eyes. "please. like he needs a gift card to the coffee shop. all he needs is to bat his eyes and charlie falls for it every time."

"well i was envisioning something like this," he answers, leaning down so he can kiss billie. he was still getting used to their height difference, but a crick in his neck was more than worth it to kiss her. tucker smiles at billie, happy that she's agreed to tag along. it'll be nice for them to meet, especially when he knows they'll get along so well. "oh, does this mean i might get to stay over? i can make breakfast. and i'll pick up a gift card or something for thatcher. maybe for the coffee shop?"

I know @constellaticnsx​ sent Harper and Zeke for the kid meme!

Name: Jason James 'JJ' Matthews Gender: Male General Appearance: JJ has a pretty casual style but he definitely knows how to dress up and look nice. He'd much rather be hanging out in jerseys and workout clothes than rocking dress pants, but he can make either work if he needs to.  Personality: JJ is a button pusher. He can be pretty nosey and definitely loves to ask questions (especially with authority figures). He's pretty smart so sometimes he suffers from lack of motivation. JJ can buckle down and get shit done when he needs to, he just sometimes needs that added bit of pressure from a deadline to really do it.  Special Talents: JJ doesn't have many creative talents, but he can sing. In high school he was in choir because it was easier than art and then was convinced to stay with it even after he filled his requirement. He's definitely got sick of the jokes he'd hear in the locker room before games though.  Who they like better: Mom. Dad can be a little too intense for JJ's tastes. Mom has fewer expectations and checks dad when he starts to be a little too much like his own father. Dad always apoligizes after that.  Who they take after more: Dad! They're both nosey and pick at problems until they get to the bottom of the issue. JJ gets his disregard for authority figures from dad too. He wishes he was more like mom. She's pretty fucking awesome. Personal Head Canon: JJ plays college football and even joins the choir at his school so he meets more than just fellow jocks. He's not sure what he wants to do with his life, but he's content to spend some time figureing it out. He doesn't exactly want to follow dad's lead and go into investigative journalism but he wouldn't mind doing some sort of investigating in general.  Face Claim:

they can’t keep doing this. she can’t keep taking these crumbs of sydney, between jobs when she comes home to visit her family. it’s quick kisses during the holidays and stolen glances and moments and it’s slowly but surely breaking lucinda’s heart into a million little pieces. but every time she does it, it feels slightly better than not having sydney at all. it feels like it will be worth it. it never is, but she just keeps trying.

"oh did you now? starting to forget my gorgeous face and needed a refresher on that?” she teases, as though her heart doesn’t ache with every moment they’re apart.

@constellaticnsx​ said:  “why won’t you just let me go? i’m not worth it.” (literally anyone you want this was just. god tier angst)

there’s a flash of a white, cold anger that floods through them when she says that. because it’s not the kind of thing someone learns to think on their own. it’s the kind of thing someone teaches you, over time. and it’s absolute bullshit.

jamie isn’t good at talking about his feelings. they never have been. but emily is important to them. more important than they know how to say.

"yes well, maybe i think you are worth it.” a shrug. “or maybe i like to be stupid and stubborn. or maybe both. but... i do think i’d very much like to fuck up whoever convinced you that you aren’t.”

[thosebrightcitylights]

[text; em] we'll make it work and we will absolutely make time to be together just the two of us. i think that may be something we both need. i've missed you. okay okay i'll wake you if you promise to go back to sleep after i leave. you need to rest! and you dont have to do anything to deserve some considerate, just be you.

[text: jay 💕] i’m hoping it’ll only be a day or two. i really just want to be able to be home and spend time with you. and maybe like two other people. but mostly you. no!! you have to wake me up, i need my goodbye kiss!! you are the absolute best, what did i do to deserve you? definitely exhausted but it’s been fun.

@constellaticnsx said:  ❝ In my dreams, it’s always you. ❞ - from emily for jamie!!!

it’s such a soft admission and jamie’s first instinct is to say something cold, but they know that’s not reasonable or fair or even what they really want to say. but they’re still getting used to not being cruel, not pushing people away. they have friends now and they have emily and they need to trust that those people will stick around, if he gives them reason to stay.

"is it?” and there was a time when the question would have come out snarky or cool, but this time there’s just surprise. it’s still so soft, something they’re not used to, but maybe one day they’ll get used to it. “...well, i hope reality can live up to those dreams.”

Emily smiles at Sasha when she pushes her hair out of her face. "Oh, thanks, I guess I just didn't really notice it," she says, feeling like an idiot even as she says the words. It's weird, feeling nervous around Sasha, but there's something there and she's not sure what to do about it.

“Of course,” she answers, returning the smile as she pulls her hand away. “I mean, it’d be a crime if I let anything distract from that beautiful face of yours, wouldn’t it? Then again, I think if you wanted to do the whole fringe-bangs-that-hide-your-eyes thing, I’m sure you could pull it off.”

Jay was grateful to have a day off from his internship. It had been so long since he caught a game, he felt better just being here. His friends were all laughing and having a good time even though the game wasn’t as thrilling as they had hoped. One of his friends made his way back with the next round and managed to slosh some over the side. “Jesus, Mac, be careful,” he told him before turning to the girl sitting next to him. “I’m sorry about him. Did he get you?” Jay asked, wanting to make sure the entire group didn’t look like a bunch of entitled assholes.

Finch sighs and nods his head. "It is real now, isn't it?" He shakes his head. "I didn't think I'd be so scared to do it on my own and go out there without Lark. I think she was more of a crutch than I thought." Finch covers Emily's hand with his own and squeezes gently. "Please. It would help a lot to know I have someone on my side so close."

Emily reaches over and rests her hand gently on Finch's knee. "You're not a pain. And I'm still nervous. The whole anonymous thing when I'm making music isn't just a gimmick," she says with a shrug. "Of course it feels more real now. You're on your own and it's your music. Do you want me to hang out on the wings while you're on?"

“I’m really not judging you for this. You’re looking at the kid who watched fifteen episodes of Law and Order reruns last weekend because I was hungover and didn’t want to work on my journalism article.”

Nick checked his notes one last time before stepping in. Looking up at the first person he saw, a pretty blonde who looked like she could be a distraction, he cleared his throat. “Excuse me, I’m Detective Henderson. I’m investigating a crime and I have a few questions about a client of yours,” he began, taking out a picture. “Have you seen this man recently?” he asked, jumping right to the point.

"okay but how'd you even meet jamie? 'cause it seems kinda wild. unless the answer is drugs, in which case, no judgment. how do you think half of us met them?"
