✨ 💙 for wip ask :)

Thank you! 🤗

✨ random spoiler? Just for you, I wanna post an angsty snippet of my largest piece for LuzToye Week. Believe it or not, this is from the beginning of the story. POV is George regarding Joe.

By the time you found him tangled in the lily pads and finally dragged him onto the muddy beach, he’d gone still. Eyelids half-closed, mouth open. You look at his sternum, at the place where you tried to expel the water from his lungs. If he were alive it would bruise.

He isn’t; it doesn’t.

You’re there when it happens and you don’t save him. That’s the worst part.

💙 song(s) inspiration? lol there are many and none of my choices are consistent or coherent. For the first fic (featured above) I’ve been thinking about/listening to two Mountain Goats songs (sorry not sorry) Pigs That Ran Straightaway into the Water, Triumph of and Old College Try. Both of which are like “if the world is against you, then I am against the world” sort of vibes.

For my other LuzToye work, I’d say one is Buck Me Off by Speedy Oritz, which has a very fuck w/ me vibe, in my opinion, and feels very in line with George in this fic. The other I thought of was Two Weeks by FKA Twigs b/c it’s somehow sexy and futuristic sounding? Which is the closest we get to a thesis statement in this one.

Thank you for the ask! I’m so excited to get these guys (finished and) posted! 💕

ILITW X SMT : Lily Oritz/ Hathor

As per SMT Strange Journey’s compendium (I didn’t use the wiki info this time because it was rather vague?):

"The Egyptian goddess of fertility. She is also the goddess of love, motherhood, and joy.

She is depicted as a cow with the disc of the sun between her horns, or as a horned woman holding the disc of the sun."

Additional Lore:

She is the mother and also the wife of Horus and also often associated with Isis, the mother goddess of Egypt. She was originally Sekhmet who ravaged humanity at that time. She is also associated by music, the sky among others. More info here

Why Hathor?

The main reason why I chose Hathor is her role as goddess of love and benevolence. Throughout ilitw, Lily is very kind hearted and always proposes less violent options and shows compassion even to people who might not deserve it. For example she still gives Britney a chance to win her over, something that most people would find hard to do with someone as abominable as Britney.

I also chosen Hathor because when she is not being shook to the core, Lily radiates joy like the sun does with sunlight. Her joy feels so warm and genuine. AND HER SPRITE WHEN SHE IS HAPPY!

<< Dan <-: Main :-> Ava >>

-----

This one is for our cinnamon bun Lily! Do you think Hathor fits her? If not, which mythological figure would you choose?

Can you do a Stacy X F!Mc where they’re at a party set a few months after everything went down and everyone else seems to be doing okay but MC is still suffering and Stacy ends up comforting her. Basically I love angst and fluff x

basically, i love angst, fluff, and stacy green too so let me come through for you

Summary: MC finds herself at an end of school party at Ben’s house, with her friends all around her so happy and feeling carefree for once enjoying the party. She wants to be excited and happy, but all her mind lets her think of is Redfield and what happened to Noah.

Word Count: 3447

Notes: I really hope you like this anon, I went in for it. I was really inspired by the song Fake Happy by Paramore from the playlist for ILITW, so that’s what the italics words are. I thought the overall mood and theme of the song fits this ask and I really wanted to use that song for some time now for an ILITW writing so thanks for helping me with that. Without further ado, I present to you, angst and fluff.

So I’ve been doing a good job of making them think… I’m quite alright

MC can’t hear herself think, the base from the song pounding in her ears. She covers one ear with her hand taking a sip of her drink grimacing at the taste. Definitely laced, vodka maybe. She looks around the party desperately searching for a friendly face to talk to, finding no one she sighs, setting her cup on the table.

She strides off towards the kitchen finding herself in front of the sink, she wets the back of her with some water wiping it on the back of her neck. The wind shakes the trees off in the distance and MC finds herself staring too long at them before thoughts begin to pressure her mind. You let Noah die…you watched him die and did nothing about… MC blinks away some tears, gripping the counter under her fingers. She drags out a long breath, looking towards the moon, I did everything I could, right?

“Hey, MC, wanna play a game?” The voice is familiar, it’s Lily’s. Act cool, she ducks her head down coughing away any trace of a sob In her throat. “Someone’s looking for taboo.”

If I smile with my teeth, bet you’d believe me

MC forces a smile, looking at Lily, “oh you know maybe in a bit. I was actually looking for Stace, you saw her?” MC wipes her hands on her jeans, jeez, when did it get so warm in here?

Lily thinks for a second before frowning, “No I haven’t seen her for awhile, are you okay?” MC quickly wipes a bead of sweat from her forehead, stop being such a downer.

MC forces a brighter smile, “Yeah, I’m doing great. We’re finally free, how are you?” Lily places a comforting hand on MC shoulder, giving it a quick comforting squeeze.

“If you’re sure.” Lily nods, letting her eyes fall on the running sink before MC, MC quickly hits the top of the dial turning off the water. “I haven’t been this happy in so long. Britney is so good to me.” Lily blushes, tucking a strand of hair behind her eye thinking about Britney. “I feel like I’ve maybe found the love of my life.”

“You should get back to her and the game, you’re so cute together. I’ll catch up with you okay?”

“Sure thing, MC. If you need anything come find me.” Lily smiles, quickly hugging MC before leaving her alone to find Britney. MC watches her green sweater disappear into the crowd of bodies, stupid Ben and being popular and inviting so many people.

Oh, please don’t ask me how I’ve been, don’t make me play pretend

MC stumbles upon Lucas and Andy making out in the hallway when they notice her approaching, they part Andy smiling brightly, linking his hand with Lucas’. She lets her eyes linger on their intertwined hands for a few moments, it makes her want to be with Stacy more, her eyes drifting back to meet Andy’s gaze.

“Hey lovebirds, you seen Stace lately?” MC asks, with a soft smile.

“Honestly, no, at least I haven’t,” Lucas replied.

“She went with Ava to the basement to help bring up more booze, last I saw.” Andy smiled, “I was going to help, show off my muscles you know, but she thought I should spend more time with Lucas.” Lucas blushes.

“Oh…” MC managed, she can let them spend time together and completely avoid me?

“I’m positive it’s nothing to be concerned over,” Lucas states, with a comforting smile. I’m finally starting to get what Dan meant about being looked at like a kicked puppy, MC thinks to herself trying to hide her distaste with the thought.

“How are you holding up?” Andy interrupts, MC is grateful to not have to respond to Lucas’ statement or justify the thought with a response, it is nothing Lucas, I’m not crazy.

“Oh, me? I’ve been great, Andy. I’m finally getting to a good place” MC lies, picking nervously at the bottom of her t-shirt meeting Lucas’ unconvinced gaze. He rests a protective hand on Andy’s lower back, his sweater sleeves pushed halfway up. His glasses hang low on the bridge of his nose. “How have you two been?”

“Pretty good.” Lucas smiles, “Are you sure you’re okay? Sometimes victims of traumatic experiences don’t realize their negative symptoms, you could be suffering from PTSD-” Lucas is cute short by Andy stomping on his foot, he gives him a look ‘what the fuck? not your place’

Shut the fuck up, Lucas, please, not now MC thinks to herself forcing a smile to her lips again sucking down a lump of saliva in her throat, “Yes, Lucas, and before you start throwing your facts and trauma victim research at me any further, I’m fine. Go make out somewhere.”

“If you need to talk-“ Lucas starts, as Andy half turns to him.

“Lucas.” Andy places a hand on his chest, giving him a look. “Listen, Stace was last seen with Ava, go find her, okay.” Andy gives MC a caring and understanding look, fixing the front of his hair. “we have some business to attend to, so if you’ll excuse us.” Andy wags his eyebrows at Lucas, before dragging him away with him, Lucas gives her a soft squeeze on her shoulder brushing past her. Lucas manages to also give MC one more look before Andy is able to whisk him away completely. 

“When she’s ready to talk to us she will Lucas..”

MC sighs to herself, thank god for Andy, at least someone knows how to take a hint. She follows the Stacy trail to the basement the creaky floorboards and creepy aesthetic makes MC shudder involuntarily, hugging herself as she proceeds down the stairs.

And if I go out tonight, dress up my fears, you’d think I look alright, with these mascara tears?

Ava stands in the basement digging through a box of different jars and files, her face deep in concentration, she jumps a little when MC calls out her name. “Sorry, you okay?”

“Whatever.” Ava blows her off, rummaging through the box of different things, MC approaches looking in. “Found this box of old shit, looking for something spooky.”

“You find anything good in these jars of… body parts?! Please tell me Ben’s parents are doctors.” MC gags holding up a jar of fingers, someone was murdered for these.

Ava smirks, “I could, but I think I’d be lying. They’re both lawyers.” She holds up a jar to the light, “but judging by the cuts, they look surgical.”

MC shudders, looking at the heart in a jar, her eyes shifting from disgust to looking sadly at the jar, she lets her mind fall back to Noah, somewhere rotting to death. I mean here we are, living it up at a party and Noah’s fucking dead, it’s just so wrong. She traces her finger down the side of the jar, poor son of a bitch, MC realizes she’s been staring at the faded colored heart in the jar looking to meet Ava’s concerned gaze, she pulls at her choker for a split second looking almost nervous… concerned?

“Scared of a heart? Or something else.” Ava asks casually trying to not sound too concerned or pitying for MC’s same, or maybe Ava just didn’t know how to deal with feelings, could be both.

“Just that someone keeping someone else’s body parts, it’s kinda freaky even for a doctor.” MC nods, “Tell me this won’t be your basement one day?”

“No promises.” Ava laughs. “I might keep my dad’s pickled remains.”

“Anyways,” MC chuckles with forced emphasis on her words,  “what happened to Stace?”

“She and Dan went outside for a breather, the party was a little loud of them both.”

“Thanks Ava.”

“Your mascara is a little smudged, just an FYI.” Ava smiles softly before returning her focus back to her boxes, with a grateful sigh MC makes her way back up the stairs and to the first bathroom. She digs into the medicine cabinet finding some cotton swabs to fix it. She lets her hands fall on the counter trying to hold back tears. Keep it together, you shouldn’t worry everyone with your problems, they’re finally fucking happy.

 And if the lights are low, they’ll never see me frown, hey

MC starts to lose hope walking into the backyard, people stand around laughing and talking, a fire is started near the back by the pool. She watches the flame raise as some guy pours lighter fluid onto the open flame, it turns blue a quick second before sulking to its orange hues. MC takes a fortifying breath building up some courage, find Stacy or Dan.

She walks directly into Dan looking over his shoulder not noticing her. He grabs her before she can fall helping her steady her feet with a soft laugh, his hands are strong MC notices before he lets go of her arm. “Sorry, MC. Didn’t see you there.”

“It’s cool, rumor has it, you were with my girlfriend last,” MC states, her lips curling into a frown in the black of the night, as a freezing gust of winds whips past them. MC hugs her arms to her body, fuck, it’s cold.

“Stace and I were helping start the fire. You might check Ben’s room though, she was determined to find some kind of decent music. Guess Paramore isn’t her thing.” Dan runs a hand through his hair turning to MC. “You okay? You seem a little-“

“I’m fine Dan, really. Anyways, was this recently or an hour ago that you saw her.” MC doesn’t mean to sound like a bitch, but oh well, Dan will forgive her.

“You actually just missed her, she went in through the front door though, I wanted to check out this pool.” Dan nods, watching her with a concerned expression wondering about her tone.

“It’s nice.” MC sighs, running her hands through her hair with a soft sigh.

“Long night?” Dan asks, casually. “Listen, I know how hard things can be, and before you shut me down, just know I’m always just a text, a call, whatever away, okay?”

MC blinks quickly, am I crying? “Thank you.” She wraps her arms around Dan for a quick tight hug before pulling away. “Anyways, I hope you’re doing okay, but I’m on a mission and I need to find my Stace.”

“Good luck.” Dan shoots finger guns at her, and she laughs tucking into the house.

I know I said I was doing good, and that I’m happy now, I shoulda known when things were going good that’s when I get knocked down.

MC trudges their way inside after saying bye to Dan, walking through the living room she sees Andy, Lucas, and Ava dancing on the makeshift dance floor laughing, Lily and Britney linger nearby kissing and swaying to the beat.

Why the fuck do they get to be happy and enjoy themselves while I’m falling apart… it’s not fair. MC pushes her way through the bodies, Stacy where the fuck are you. She makes it to the stairs where Stacy lingers at the top talking to some girls from cheer, MC walks towards them overhearing pieces of the conversation.

“So, Stacy, hows your girlfriend?”

“She’s doing okay.”

“I heard she killed Noah, is that true?”

“What? No. She would never, Noah was her friend.”

“Why’s he dead then and not her?”

MC rages inside, sadness suddenly turning into boiling rage, I KILLED NOAH?! She pushes up the stairs, Stacy sees her barreling up the stairs towards them.

“MC,” Stacy says with a smile reaching out to take her hand, but MC ignores her shoulder checking one of the girls on the squad, “ “Better watch yourself, might find yourself gone next,” MC mutters walking past her towards the bathroom. “I’m so sorry, Amber. Let me go talk to her, she’s just having a rough day.”

“That freak really did kill Noah, Ava the Witch probably helped..” Amber whispers to the other girl as Stacy walks past them pushing her way into the bathroom that MC sits inside.

Stacy closes the door behind her locking it, turning to look at MC. She shakes with sobs, clenching her hair in her fists, sitting on the side of the tub. Stacy squats in front of her reaching out to her, MC instantly recoils turning away from Stacy.

The sounds of her sobs filling the room, Stacy wraps her arms around MC, swatting at the hand that tried to push away her arm. She holds her tightly, rubbing circles on her back with her palm soothingly. “It’s okay, MC, just breath.”

“IT”S OKAY? It’s OKAY STACY?” MC yells, standing from her spot as Stacy almost falls into the tub, catching herself, with a huff. “Noah’s fucking dead, I had to watch him die. He’s dead Stace, I had to go to his funeral, and his mom looked happy?!”

Stacy stays silent for a moment, “MC, why didn’t you tell me you were struggling? I could have-“

“What? Stacy look around you, I’m fucked up we’re all fucked up and it seems I’m so only fucking one still fucking bothered by all of this. You all don’t have to live with the fact that Noah basically killed himself in front of you with no fucking care in the world for the outcome!”

Stacy nods, watching as MC’s body violently shakes with sobs finally stopping her rant, “MC.” Her voice is soft.

“Stace…” MC sobs walking towards her. Stacy takes MC in her arms, listening to her sob into her chest, Stacy wiped at her eye before rubbing her palm against MC’s back again.

“I’m sorry,” MC is confused, why is Stace sorry, she has nothing to be sorry for… “I never realized how hard this would be on you even now. Jane was your best friend, she tormented you down there, mocking you for not being able to protect me… I-it wasn’t fair of Jane to make you play last.”

“I had to watch her hurt all of you… I couldn’t do anything as she burned you-I-Stacy I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you.”

Stacy’s begins crying, tears rolling down her cheeks, as she holds MC tighter. “You did everything you could MC, I’m still here because of you. You saved me from the stuffed animals at Brit’s party, you took me out for coffee during my mom’s campaign scandal, you helped me find a charger to call my mom at the hospital. I’m only here because you saved me, if you weren’t here to help me deal with it I don’t think I would have been strong enough to tell Jane I’m not scared.”

“Do you mean that?” MC asks with a choked sob.

“With all my heart MC.” Stacy soothes, “and it’s not your fault Noah died, he sacrificed himself for Jane. He lured us down there and made us play, he was more fucked up than any of us could have imagined.”

“He still didn’t deserve to die, Stace…”

“No, he didn’t MC.” Stacy agrees, brushing her fingers through MC’s hair, “but he sacrificed himself from the suffering he felt over Jane. There’s no one in this world who could have taken her place and made Noah okay.”

“He’s fucking Redfield, Stace.” MC sobs again, clutching Stacy’s purple off the shoulders blouse in her hands. “He’s out there forever to be tormented by himself, till another fucking group of idiots decides to explore the fucking ruins.”

“He did what he had to to make peace with himself, MC.” Stacy assured, “he did that because of his mom and the guilt he felt over the situation. No, it wasn’t his fault, but no amount of therapy and help would have changed that MC. There’s nothing we can do, it collapsed after you came out, no one should be going down there anytime soon.”

MC nods against her chest, her tears rolling onto MC’s blouse soaking the blouse in her tears. She nuzzles her head Stacy’s neck, with a deep breath. “I’m sorry, Stace. I keep trying to be okay and to hold it together, but it’s not working and-”

Stacy places a finger to her lips shushing, “don’t ever apologize, it’s not your fault babe.”

“I should be okay though, it’s been 5 months, Stace.”

“It doesn’t just magically click off, love…” Stacy begins, her eyebrows furrowing before opening her mouth to speak again, “you have to keep taking the time and let yourself heal, it will never, never happen overnight or quickly in any capacity.”

MC nods, she knows her girlfriend is right, but why does it still have to be so hard for her, she didn’t make Noah take Jane’s place, he volunteered himself as soon as they got into the cavern. Silence fills the room beside the soft lyrics of the song leaking in under the door.

Oh, please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too…

“This is a sad song to play at a party,” MC says with a mixture of a laugh/sob. Stacy chuckles, pulling away slightly from MC tilting her chin up to look at her. She quickly wipes away the lingering tears on MC’s face. “Am I ever going to be able to cope with this Stace?”

Stacy bites her lower lip, “I believe with all my heart you’re gonna be able to get through this, babe.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re so strong and resilient.” Stacy smiles, MC smiles weakly back at her. Stacy grabs a roll of toilet paper ripping off a few squares wiping away the snot on MC’s face. “You kept all of us going through this entire thing, you were the glue that held us all together.”

MC nods sadly. “And more than that, you have us to help you through this.Let us take over for awhile, we can be glue too babe. Lily has the biggest heart in the entire world, she’s always here for you. Andy might not be the best at comforting you, but he can make you laugh. Lucas in his own weird way really helps with his facts and knowledge to make you feel less alone in your feelings.” MC smiles at Stacy. “And Ava in her own witchy way will always be here for you. And you know, we snooped so far into Dan’s life and he doesn’t blame us, he can help you cope with it teach you a few things he’s learned.”

“Thank you, Stacy.” MC smiles.

“And most importantly, you have me. And I won’t ever let anything bad happen to you ever, ever again. I don’t know what I’d do if I lost you, you are the love of my life.”

“I love you, too Stace. Thanks for being here.” MC smiles weakly, “I really shouldn’t have come, I knew I wasn’t doing well.”

“Hey, sometimes all you need is a party to let you open up.” Stacy laughs, cupping MC’s cheek in one hand, rubbing her thumb back and forth. “And were alone…in a bathroom….during a party. So you were looking for me, right? Now, what are you going to do with me?”

“What do you want me to do with you?” MC laughs, thinking back to that night so long ago when Stacy first said that to her. It’s crazy to her how much things have changed since that, but at least she has Stacy still.

Stacy leans in really close kissing her softly on the lips. “I’d definitely like to do that again.” MC kisses her again softly at first, letting her lips move against Stacy’s perfectly. Her lips were soft and moist, and MC’s lips gilded against hers perfectly. Stacy lets her hands lazily brush through MC’s hair, MC’s hands moving to Stacy’s cheek cupping them as she moves her body closer to Stacy’s deepening the kiss between them.

MC jumps up startled after a rapid knocking on the door. “Put your clothes on stop fucking in my bathroom, people have to use it.” Ben’s voice filled the room as Stacy and MC laugh. Stacy grabs MC’s hand motioning for her to wait.

“Sorry, just a sec,” Stacy calls out, giggling with MC. She pulls down the sleeve of her blouse with an amused smile. “You’re so bad, Stace.” MC chuckles, taking Stacy’s stretched out hand.

Stacy unlocks the door pulling it open smirking at Ben. “Sorry, things got a little whew.” She jerked her head, pulling her blouse back into place with her free hand. She then pats Ben on the shoulder. “Come on, MC.” Ben looks at MC uncomfortably as they walk past him giggling.

“You okay to get back to the party?” Stacy smiles. MC nods, letting a smile fall across her face, a real one. Stacy kisses her quickly one last time before leading her back to the dance floor.

Oh please…oh please…

hope you enjoyed it anon!

3. What book do you think is underrated?

5. Your favorite LI?

9. A character you wish we could romance?

19. What plot would you like to see in a Choices book?

3. I'd say Wishful Thinking or The Heist Monaco

5. Hands Down it's Ajay Bhandari from Class Act

9. Poppy Patel from Hero and Lily Oritz from It Lives in the Woods

19. Characters getting trapped in a video game or a book where one of our Love Interests is a ghost

[mollyannice]

And the sad thing is they have drawn muscular women before. I just think choices is just cowards to do so on a LI. I doubt we will see it or anybody with Lily Oritz body type as a female LI.

Sad LIs HC if we choose the ending where MC becomes Redfield please?:/

Sad LIs Over MC’s Death

Andy Kang

Andy distracts himself with anything and everything, as his leg heals he puts his everything into getting better and physical therapy

Andy never lets anyone know how sad he is when he finds out, he ends up crying to himself a lot

his parents worry a lot about him as he goes through the mourning stages, sometimes it’s just too much for Andy and he won’t leave his room a day or two

when Andy’s leg heals he forced himself to do basketball more and more, throwing himself into the game and planning plays

Andy talks to Tom about his feelings, he’s the only one who knows how bad he’s doing, Tom does his best to cheer him up and listen to him

Andy visits MC’s grave every day, he brings a single navy blue rose and sits next to the gravestone and just talks to MC like they’re still there, he cries a lot and his parents never question him about it

Andy does his best to make all of his friends happy, Lily usually calls him to talk and he does his best to comfort her, but it’s hard on the both of them

”When I met MC we were both just kids, all of our houses were by each other and we all sort of grouped together when we all went to the same school. MC was compassionate, they cared so much about everyone and everything, they supported me through everything and loved me through it all. When I came out as trans I was worried they might think differently of me, but they never did. They were so caring and sweet. When I think of MC I think of compassion. They didn’t have a single bad bone in their body.”

”We may have lost touch through the years, but we finally came together and I knew MC was perfect. Everything finally seemed put back together when they got us all to be friends again. And I will always cherish them for that.”

Stacy Green

Stacy takes time off of cheer and lets Britney replace her as captain, it didn’t feel the same to not have MC making cute jokes or flirting with her about it

She gets into really bad episodes where all she can think about is MC and finds herself at their house sitting on the swing on the porch

MC parents invite her in, “You know Stace, sometimes laying in their bed helps me. Why don’t you go take a nap.” Stacy does, it helps, the blankets smell like MC still and the pillow has a faint trace of MC’s shampoo

She cries harder than she ever has when she lays in MC’s bed letting it wash over her that they’re actually Redfield

Stacy refuses to go to different events for her mom and her mom understands but sometimes makes Stacy feel like crap about it and Stacy feels even worse about everything and finds herself at MC’s house again

She befriends MC’s parents, and they take her in caring for her like they would have if MC was still alive

Stacy visits MC’s grave and sits in silence with MC, she never realizes she’s crying until she gets sympathetic glances from people at there.

Stacy makes it her own personal goal to tear Noah from limb to limb herself and hires a private investigator to find him, no matter where he goes

”There’s so much I could say about MC, they have a beautiful smile, a beautiful laugh, and most importantly a beautiful heart. I knew MC so well, I knew how big their heart was, how much love they held for everyone. Every day I wake up so angry that they didn’t come out of the cavern with us while we were hiding. They should be here smiling tells us how much they love us and making us feel better about Cora and everyone else lost that night.”

”If MC were here, they’d know how to make everything right again. My heart would feel full again, I would give anything to hug them one last time, hear them call me Stace before kissing me on the cheek. I miss them with every fiber of my being.” 

Ava Cunningham

Ava’s first reaction is to figure this out, find a way to save MC from Redfield, free them, she will go to any length to see the love of her life alive again.

Lucas and her hang out a lot, Lucas is typically sad when they do, and Ava tries to help him but she doesn’t know how to deal with feelings

She represses her sadness and pushes it as far away as possible, she distances herself from everyone, but Lucas

Tom makes it his personal mission to help her feel better because he can see how sad she is under her tough exterior, she pushes him away for a long time before caving in, entertaining the idea of them being friends

Ava sneaks into Cora’s house and reads everything, every book, every scrap of paper something to figure this out for MC

She And Stacy both promise to avenge MC if they ever find Noah again and they both start a hunt to find his location tracking him from his movements when he first left town

Ava visits MC’s grave at night, and cries there, she typically goes once a week and that one night of that week she cries for a long time playing with the grass around their headstone. She even brings a red flower to MC’s grave every once in a while.

”Yo, MC was a special person. I never get close to a lot of people, but they, uh, got me I guess. They’d let me be me, witch and all. They never tried to change anyone, let them exist as themselves, and it was surprising to see a genuine person like that, but MC was that person.”

”I loved MC, like a lot of people here tonight. They will be missed.” 

Lucas Thomas

Lucas busies himself, why spend the time being sad and crying, it was silly to him when he could work it away and invest his energy to more helpful outlets until it finally caught up to him how much it hurt to lose MC

It wasn’t until prom that it really hit him, they had their first meeting and he sat listening to people’s ideas when someone mentions an MC tribute since they didn’t make it to prom

No one knows what to say as he sits there sobbing thinking about MC and how much it’s hurt him that they died

It makes him so angry, Lucas spent most of his time levelheaded before, but now he gets heated up really fast for no reason, he doesn’t think it’s fair to MC died and not him or Noah.

Lucas picks up swimming again afterward, it helps him to relax and calm down, he spends almost every day after school in the school’s swimming pool with the swim team, they beg him to join the team, and he never does

Lucas has lunch at MC’s grave sometimes, “if I’m gonna waste my time crying I might as well eat.”

Lucas grows closer to all of his friends and leans on them more and more than he did before, he’s never been to open with his feelings but now he is, Stacy and Lily and him grow together the most

He likes to hang out with Ava because she’s not overly sad and always asking how he’s holding up they can just enjoy themselves without the pain

”When I met MC, I knew in my heart that they were going to be a force to be reckoned with. They had such a fight and drive to do any and everything they could do, they’d take anything into their own hands to solve problems for themselves and their friends. They were going to conquer the world one day.”

”I miss MC every day, not a day goes by where I don’t wake up and think about how hard it is to be without them. I love you, MC, if you’re listening. I would do anything to have you back with us.”
