@munofmanyminds gray doesn't sleep much. she's notoriously nocturnal-- it's the best time to stream and normally, its silent. but for the past 3 weeks, despite the constant use of her noise-cancelling headphones, her neighbor has been insistent on providing the world's raunchiest soundtrack. night after night, she's had to listen to them give multiple orgasms to whichever girl they'd taken a fancy to (and there were several, she has perfect pitch-- and she can tell the difference). tonight, though-- it's silent and somehow that's oddly worrying. she knows it's overstepping to show up at their door with questions, but she's never been one for propriety or boundaries. she's still rumpled from sleep when she knocks on their door. it isn't until after they open the door that she regrets not...attempting to look a little less hobitt-y, she tugs on the edge of her oversized white t-shirt and shifts in her bunny socks.

"....are you okay? like is everything...alright round here? it's been suspiciously silent tonight and i came to see if you were....you know, alive. i'd hate to have a dead body next door so--" she gives them a soft smile. "i'm gray by the way-- i'm next door."

based on: We always see each other in the elevator and now we’ve gotten stuck because of a power outage so really, I guess we should get to know one another at this point.

It was meant to be the best apartment block around, yet she'd been able to point out issues from the moment she moved in. Her siblings liked to claim that she was 'being overly picky like usual', the elevator breaking proved her point in her own mind. Still a building with an unreliable elevator was preferable than being at her childhood home. What wasn't so preferable was being stuck in the elevator with somebody else. "Please for the love of god, tell me you're not claustrophobic?"

They've been good. Uncharacteristically good. Almost unnaturally good...so Alex should have known they were headed for a major bump in the road sometime soon. She's fresh off the stage at the first panel of a 3 month press run for her newest project and she should be basking in the glow of the awards season buzz that's been building ever since she got involved but she isn't. She can't. She broke her own cardinal rule and clicked the trending twitter tag that bore her own name. Just like her publicist had predicted, the speculation is already running rampant about her and her ex. Filming with him had been equal parts infuriating and fulfilling because as terrible as they are for each other off screen, all of the chemistry between them made for on-screen gold. They've had multiple meetings with their publicity teams where the obvious question has been floated and she's batted it away each time but...there's Oscar buzz on the table now, getting more eyes on the film with the promise of a real life rekindling of the co-stars might push them both over the edge where publicity is concerned and that changes things.

She's sat on the edge of the bed. Jaw clenched and mind racing through all of the possible ways she can bring this up to Roman. Try as she might, she can't seem to figure out a way to package this that won't blow up the delicate balance they've maintained for the past few weeks. She hears the soft click of the front door as he gets back in and braces herself for whatever will come next before she calls out to him. "I'm in here, babe."

❛ miss crest, i assure you, everything is under control... ❜ kelis mused, speaking with a clear and crisp confidence that wasn't supported by the quick beating of her heart. her supervisor, and meela's actual representation in a court of law, may be the one pulling the strings— given as she was nothing more than an intern — but it was kelis who always became the one to provide meela reassurance when it was needed. it was difficult, oftentimes, in a professional setting, not to give away the fact that her and meela had gotten incredibly familiar; on a wildly unprofessional basis. however, kelis credited herself with being able to put on a strong face and a clean act. no one would ever catch her doing anything wrong because kelis didn't let them — especially if said things would put her career at risk.

walking around the desk and moving closer, kelis reached out a tender hand to brush the exposed skin of meela's shoulder. her touch was soft, comforting, and she tilted her head to the side. ❛ i know i'm just an intern but, you know i care about you right ?? i'm not gonna let them get away with this. this guy can pull all the strings he wants but he's not going to get away with stealing from you, babes. you understand me ?? ❜

Was this some sort of joke? He wasn't sure. CT certainly hadn't expected to ever see them again, and especially not three years later at his door step. His brows furrowed slightly as he stared at them. "What're ya doin' here?"

@munofmanyminds

she's sober this time, maybe out of guilt-- possibly out of fear of developing a habit she wouldn't be able to shake. it's been 48 hours since she snuck out of blake's house, since she kissed him, and she can still feel the echo of it in her blood stream. blake always brought things to the surface, feelings she was ill equipped to deal with, feelings she was constantly running from, all flared to life at the sight of him.

she comes baring gifts, his laundered shirt and a box of pastries from a bakery down her street. It feels inadequate, but she owes him the attempt at the very least. and maybe, this time she'll stay long enough for them to get to the bottom of this thing, long enough for them to feel finished. or start again--

she rings the doorbell, and waits. each second makes her stomach churn with dread. and then the door opens--

and it's not blake at all--

it's a girl and she's beautiful.

"oh-- um-- Hi. I'm looking for Blake? Is he home?"

"Oh," Rachel frowned as if that thought hadn't occurred to her. As if she believed the red faced man where little more than one of those wooden marionette she'd seen in a market once --his balls nothing more than his pretty little strings-- and if she broke him, he'd crack and splinter without much of a fuss. "I do so adore this shirt and would be very sore to see it ruined--" She turned to her victim then, eyes hard and narrowed "--especially by the likes of you." And with that, she released her grip on the man's jewels and wiped her hands against her pants (very close to the hilt of the dagger she kept strapped at her hip), lips pursed in disgust. "Besides, we've much better things to spend our coin on." A night at one of the better inns in town, being the most important. One of the perks of coming to port was being able to sleep in an honest to goodness bed again. Her bones ached at the thought. Keeping her eyes on her former victim as he rocked himself back and forth on the floor, she settled back against the bar, one elbow resting on her partner's knee, the other still bent at her side in case she truly needed to pull her blade free. "What is it with men thinking they can treat us like whores in a brothel? --The least he could've done was buy me a drink first. Common courtesy and all."

"I'd wager it'd be a pretty bloody show..." Alexis mused, eyeing her partner from her perch at the bar. Countenance relaxed as ever, all she'd done when Rachel grabbed the man was take survey of their surrounding company - just to make sure the guy didn't have any friends ready to pounce. "We'll probably have to leave a big ass tip if we ever want to set foot here again." She glanced behind her at the owner of the fine establishment they currently inhabited, and grinned when she received a curt nod of agreement. Then she set her sights on the pitiful excuse for a man currently begging her companion for mercy he likely wouldn't get. Her lips pursed as she weighed the pros and cons. "Might be worth it though..."

A week. 7 days since it happened. 7 days since she had locked herself inside her apartment and not opened the front door for anyone. Fiona knew, clearly Axel had told her of his suspicions. Her friend had tried taken her to the hospital but she had not wanted to go. Denied anything had happened. Her absence blamed on her falling ill. In a sense she hadn't been lying, not with her vomiting and not sleeping.

After seven days, Fiona had had enough. Using the spare key she had locked herself into Esmés apartment and bribed her friend to come out for some food. Friendly bribery had been the source of Esmé finally agreeing and after a long shower, some makeup and getting dressed in a white knitted turtleneck, along with some black jeans, she was ready to go.

Once they arrived at their destination, Esmeralda was surprised to find Thomas and Axel waiting for them. Sitting down across from them, her mind was brought back to Axel running a bloodied hand through his hair. He looked cleaner now, of course. A little less pissed. Though the sight of him still had her pulse quickening, fingernails digging into her palms. "I hope it's okay I invited them. Figured it would make you feel a little better to see some familiar faces." Her friends words barely being registered.

For the past week or so, all they’ve been doing is arguing. Bringing each other to the verge of a full-blown fight and then retreating over and over again in the same exhausting cycles. This time, though, it isn’t just arbitrary mood swings on her part. There’s an underlying reason why she’s been all over the place recently. She isn’t the best communicator, that’s always been a fact, but she’s been even more closed off than usual and even more likely to snap at the most insignificant things (if that’s even possible). For the most part Roman’s been doing a brilliant job of disengaging before they go too far.

Tonight, though. Tonight, they’d full on exploded, and as much as Amaka knows she should feel the exact opposite, there’s a sense of relief that comes with it. They can reset now. Go back to something akin to normal, pretend that instead of the near-toxic minefield that they call a relationship they’re actually something closer to a functional couple. She’s leaning against the doorframe, trying to sort out the words in her head as she looks over at him from across the room. She’s never been good with apologies so she avoids it. This - as underwhelming as it is - is her version of one. Giving him context. Trying to make him understand what her headspace is like, trying to give him some sort of explanation. “I’ve been spending time with my dad.” She says the words in a tone so soft it’s much closer to a whisper than the yelling that had filled the space not too long ago. “Or at least I’ve been trying to. It’s...not exactly going well.” She goes quiet then, shifts her weight from one foot to the other as she waits for his response. She can never read him quite right after a fight and she doesn’t want to push it if he doesn’t want to talk.

“The fuck are you doing here?” Victor asked as he looked up and saw her standing in the doorway. “Miss my dick already?” He smiled and put out a cigarette he had been smoking. Hiding the money he was counting, he put it in a drawer and locked it.

DAISY JONES & THE SIX Episode 6: Whatever Gets You Thru The Night

[heartkings]

@munofmanyminds​. 

He counts his money on the currency counter, after it is washed and professionally prepared by his top men-- the ones slightly underneath him in the ranks. He values every single one of his team members, and does not lose himself in the midst of hubris. When he is even the tiniest bit of stressed, though, he knows exactly who to summon. Just her scent is enough to ease the tensions in the room. “You’re late.” He mumbles, spinning a rubber band between his finger. “Where have you been?”

munofmanyminds replied to your post: Like I need it, BUTTTT…. I wanna make another muse...

Also: Vanessa Morgan, Cindy Kimberly, Taraji P. Henson (for my Michael Ealy, por favor), Alexis Ren… I could give you like a bunch more, tbh.

Oh wow, thank you! I’ll look over these and over your wanted FC lists too :)

Amaka and Roman!

1. Made the first move: TBH, probably Amaka. Like, I figured he was so confused about it all and trying to work out how and why in the world he was attracted to her of all people that he didn’t actually make a move in the beginning but Amaka was just full on from the beginning2. The big spoon: Roman, mostly. Amaka only crawls in behind him when she’s pissed him off (without going too far) and he’s in bed before she does.3. Cries during movies: Amaka, tbh. She doesn’t cry very much at all in real life but literally any remotely sad scene in a movie and she’s blubbering away. She justifies it by saying that it’s practice for her job but they both know she’s lying. I feel like Roman probably teases her about it a little bit. 4. More affectionate: On a day to day basis, probably Roman. I feel like when they’re having good days, he’s very affectionate with her. Amaka only really takes the initiative and gets super affectionate when she’s feeling guilty for picking a fight whereas with Roman it’s more organic.5. Their favourite non-sexual activity: Lol probably arguing tbh. They argue more often than probably anything else. But I feel like they enjoy having a bit of banter. It just stops being enjoyable when one of them crosses the line...which is often...and is usually Amaka.6. More nervous to meet the parents: Hmmm. I think they’re both equally nervous in different ways. Although I think Amaka might be more nervous about him meeting her parents than she is to meet his. Actually I think both of them might be more nervous about what will happen when the other one meets their parents than the other way around. 7. More protective/jealous: Two separate answers to this one lol. Roman’s definitely more protective but Amaka’s the more jealous one.8. Sneaks into the shower with the other in the mornings: Both of them, fairly often. It really depends on who wakes up first tbh. When they aren’t avoiding each other, they’re almost obsessive about wanting to be physically close to each other as much as possible.9. Initiates sexy times the most: I’d say Roman. Definitely Roman. Probably because he’s better at reading the moment and knowing when it’s just right.10. Fuck or make love: More often than not, they’re fucking. Lots of angry sex. Lots of ‘almost breaking up but we reeled it back just in time’ sex. Lots of make-up sex. Lots of ‘I’m stressed af and this isn’t really about the sex but let’s just fuck till I can’t remember why I’m stressed in the first place’ sex. But there are a few rare occasions when they aren’t rushing and being aggressive and crazy and all over the place and they just go slow and are semi-gentle and all of that good, romantic stuff.11. Behind the wheel more often during road trips: Roman. He probably wouldn’t trust Amaka to drive for long periods of time without getting bored or forcing them to stop everywhere she saw something even vaguely interesting (and he would be right not to trust her with that tbh). Also she’d be riding shotgun doing her best to distract him. Probably give him a blowjob while he’s driving and force him to pull over to the side of the road so they don’t crash :)12. Gives the silent treatment when they’re mad at each other: Amaka. Because she can be such a stubborn idiot. I feel like Roman sometimes needs his space when they’re arguing but after he’s calmed down, he’s alright. She interprets him needing space as rejection (irrational, I know) and so she hangs onto that for longer than she should and just refuses to talk to him for a while until she thinks her pride has recovered.13. Reaches for the other’s hand first: Amaka, if it’s an impulsive, meaningless sort of handholding.but Roman if it’s handholding to be supportive.14. Whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear at inappropriate times: Lol this one’s Amaka. Always mischievous. Always being naughty and ridiculous tbh.15. Comes up with cheesy pick-up lines: Neither of them tbh. Unless it’s a joke in which case I feel like Roman might say a few to try and  make her laugh or Amaka might repeat some that people say to her if she’s trying to make him jealous or whatever but either one of them actually takes pick up lines seriously lmao.
