closed starter for: @notjustaprincess-youknow​​ location: simba and nala’s apartment

⊃(￣(ｴ)￣)⊂

the framework for tonight had been entirely formulaic, plotted down to every minor detail. a celebratory night in, complete with baz luhrmann’s romeo + juliet and both girl’s favorite snacks, would keep both nala and kiara safe behind locked doors in a way that filled their emotional cup. with simba and kion in the next room, all of them settled and safe under the same roof ... scar could knock on the door and nala’s confidence would soar. bring it on.

❛  should we get take out ? ❜ she asked as she collapsed down on the couch, checking the time. ❛ somebody’s gonna come in here crying if we don’t feed him soon, and i don’t mean the baby. ❜

I’ve already put it on a playlist for her, but Etta James’ version of My Funny Valentine has such a strong association with Penelope in my mind.  I have a very clear mental image of Pen and Frank in his office when she was little, this record spinning on his player, and Pen sleeping in his lap.  And later on, she came to associate it with Kaiden as well.

Castle on the Hill by Ed Sheeran is a big one for Kit.  The swelling, acoustic guitar is very him for some reason, and the whole thing gives me vibes of the young Charmont Bros. running around and being little lovable hellions. :3

[ofswannsx]

what if for the ship meme,,,, u did all of them for casllie 👀👀👀 or dealer's choice if u don't wanna do them all askjfak

you know I have to do ALL of them because Caspian wants me to let everyone know how much he loves Hallie. nasty. anyway, read more bc this shit long lmfao !!

1) did your muse fall in love with mine quickly, or was it a long process?

bro when i tell you caspian fell hard for hallie i mean he fell HARD. like the first time he met them he was head over heels. he just KNEW that he was going to fall for them. he tried to deny it and stop it he really did but we all know how that turned out.

2) have they ever asked my muse to dance? do they even dance with my muse at all?

yes in the kitchen playing sunflower vol. 6. if it’s in front of people they act like goofs turning fast songs then towards the end they go for one slow dance and be that mushy couple on the dance floor

3) are they the type to steal food from my muse’s plate?

yes and he’s earned a stab with a fork for it

4) does your muse ever cook for mine? if so, is it good – or does it suck ass?

yes all the time. he better good at cooking fran & Elizabeth didn’t spend time with him cooking for him not to be good at it smh

5) what’s something they do when my muse is down?

he takes her to the beach. he’d make a nice picnic for hallie and just sit by the shore until the stars came out and di whatever he could to make them smile. whether that’s telling dumb jokes or go exploring

6) what’s a topic they’re scared of talking about with my muse?

i think for the longest time Will was a topic that caspian didn’t like to talk about with hallie because it was just so heavy and he didn’t know how to process it. there was underlying guilt he felt with it because he had his dad. yeah will was still a father figure to him but he’s biologically lightning’s and by that extent he also had fran and his sisters were without a dad for years.  Athena didn’t even know her dad so the fact he had so much compared to his sisters he never wanted to talk about the unknown that came with Will’s return and the fact he was the key to Will returning also makes him guilty. Marriage also is something that’s scary. They’ve probably danced around the topic of it but seeing as though his own parents are divorced (he doesn’t blame them by any means and knew that they were meant for other people later on in life) and seeing what his mom went through it scares him. He knows he wants to be with Hallie forever though he just hopes their forever doesn’t get interrupted. 

7) are they the type who’s affectionate? if so - how do they show their affection? if not, is there a reason they’re not affectionate?

yes caspian is very affectionate. he shows affections through hallie’s love language. he’s also big on hugs. if he’s not hugging hallie from behind while standing/talking to someone something is wrong. they ARE that couple to make out a lot pour one out to their siblings who witness this foolery

8) are they the type to go on dates? if so, to where?

def a more laid back type. ‘dates’ are more at home unless it’s like a BIG special moment like their anniversaiy which caspian has to think hard about when is since he didn’t know they were dating for a while because he’s a himbo

9) would they stay in bed with mine all day? if so, doing what?

yes. cuddling, talking about their future together, planning new adventures, watching movies, roasting each other and sleeping

10) what’s a typical night between our muses look like?

they make dinner together and make a mess while they’re at it. maybe caspian put flour on hallie’s nose and they retaliate with a whole egg on his head. during dinner, they talk about how their day went and just take time to catch up and really just focus on one another. they def watch some mindless tv for a while before going to bed. in between expect a lot of headassary like arm punches, affectionate name-calling and sometimes some light-hearted pranks depending on the day and mood.

11) do they read together? if so, what?

yes !!! whatever book hallie is reading at that time. Caspian likes to put a comic book into their rotation from time to time

12) who washes the other’s hair in the shower?

they take turns. caspian does have to bend down, like REALLY bend down, to let hallie wash his hair but he’ll strain his back for them any day. he complains about soap in his eye the entire time tho

13) who is the driver? or do they switch places? or do none of them drive?

hallie is the driver. caspian literally crashed a ship on his dad’s yard. do u all really trust him to drive ???

14) who likes to smack who’s ass for no reason other than laughs? or are they both well-behaved?

caspian was raised by a southern gentleman to be a southern gentleman pirate that being said THEY SMACK EACH OTHER’S ASSES. hallie more so bc they’ve probably like throw caspian over their shoulder a few times for doing. so he doesn’t give surprise ass taps anymore 

15) do they like movies? if so what movies would they watch with mine?

yes he loves movies. honestly, they watch a lot of action/sci-fi movies or whatever movies hallie likes caspian will watch. he also asks at least once a week they watch the classic will ferral movie Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby that raised him

16) do they communicate their problems or are they the type to hold everything in until someone becomes upset?

they’re very good with communication when it comes to things that aren’t too soul-crushing. there’s a lot of trust and mutual respect between them. i think what helps is not only are they partners but best friends and if something bothers them they’re going to be upfront about it and work it out. they do bicker like an old married couple tho i will admit if they have an ‘argument’ it’s probably bc caspian did something dumb like leave the freeze open and let all their ice cream melt

17) do you see them as the marrying type?

lmfaoooooooooooo yes. ya’ll see whom he was raised by. yes, he’s the marriage type. 

18) if they had kids, who would be the fun parent?

IF THEY DO WE LITERALLY PLANNED KIDS ALREADY, anyway it’s caspian. literally, he’s so goofy and a push over he is for sure good cop in the good cop/bad cop scenrio. he’d be like ‘oh come on, babe, we were wielding dangerous weapons when we were their age it’s fine!!!’

19) do they get along with my muse’s parents?

he’s terrified of them. he’s terrfieid of all the santuccis (and by an extent kathleen and Penelope). he respects them and gets along with them. he tries not to say some head ass shit.

🦁 ⠀  ⠀ ⠀  ⠀ ───────────       mending   his   relationship   with   kiara   is   not   something   simba   foresaw   ever   in   his   life.   the   pair   were   more   like   siblings   rather   than   cousins.   they   grew   up   together   close   so   of   course   simba   knew   how   badly   his   loss   impacted   her   just   as   his   deceit   had.   he   didn’t   mean   to   lie   to   his   cousin   about   being   alive   when   all   of   pride   rock   presumed   he   was   dead.   simba   knew   he   couldn’t   take   it   back   but   the   least   he   could   do   was   try   and   move   forward.   so   that’s   exactly   what   he   was   trying   to   do.   walking   the   pier   with   kiara   he   looked   at   the   various   lights   and   sounds   that   surrounded   them.   

as   they   walked   he   noticed   a   game   booth   with   giant   stuffed   lions.   a   smirk   graced   his   features   as   he   looked   to   his   cousin.      “   five   bucks   says   i’ll   win   a   lion   before   you   do.   ”

[vitanitf]

She must’ve looked a mess. More so than usual. Her hands and shirt were splattered with blood, only part of it her own --- how much, she wasn’t sure. She’d ran... how long had she ran? She couldn’t remember. She couldn’t remember half of the night, only enough to know it was bad, it had gotten bad. She was out of breath and shaking as she banged on the door, rapid and loud, on the verge of praying to every God she didn’t believe in that the woman would answer. That she was even home. She hadn’t even meant to show up here, but it must’ve been intentional somehow. In the back of her mind she must’ve known where she was headed as soon as she’d started running. There was nowhere else to go. No one else to go to. How ironic, the only person Vitani could trust now was the one person she’d been the most wary of.

“Please help me,” Vitani spilled as soon as the door opened. The sound was hoarse and desperate. She knew that she was asking too much --- after everything she’d done and planned to do to Kiara, the way she’d treated her, how could she ask anything of her? How could she expect her to take her at face value rather than think this was some coax, some plan to get at her? How could she even know what she was asking, either of them? Still, the words came out on their own. As bitter as she’d been towards her existence, she knew that Kiara had a heart warmer than her own. Hopefully there was still a flicker left for her. “Please.”

Velma never really ever had friends outside the mystery gang, and before them she was alone for most of her life. Sure she had acquaintances but they would come and go, they never really seemed to stick around for long. Mostly it was her fault. Velma would always be too wrapped up in trying to gain approval from her parents to notice her decaying relationships. There was no time for friends.

But Velma felt a shift in the universe recently. What was the point in trying to please people when the outcome was never good enough for them? She wanted to start anew. Make up for lost time, so she started with Kiara. A friend she felt that she really let down. Holding a purple frosted chocolate cupcake in hand, Velma knocked at the girls door.

[philipcharmont]

You would think philip would know his way around a party. That wasn’t exactly the case as he found himself tripping and bumping into people with two glasses of punch in his hands. One for him and one for Florian who was already drunk off his ass. Philip thought if he gave his brother some punch he’d simmer down a bit before Kit caught wind of anything he could do. As he was weaving through the crowd he ended up bumping into a stranger, dropping both glasses onto the ground. “Oh-” Philip muttered, looking down to see if his outfit had been stained and the person’s before him. Luckily their dress was fine but their shoes might have been a different story. “I’m sorry. These galas are hard to navigate. I didn’t ruin your dress did I?” he asked, making sure not a single drop got onto the stunning gown. He’d pay for her dress right then and there if it was ruined in any way. ( @notjustaprincess-youknow​ )

[nalaomita]

IT DID NOT TAKE LONG for Nala to piece together the truth between each fabrication that made up the watered down scenario that had been spoon fed to her since she left. One conversation with her brother and it all fell into place - what each (non)answer to any of her questions actually translated to. However, there were plenty of questions that even she couldn’t find answers for - causing her trip home to be all the more demanding. 

There was a lot of unspoken emotional labor that came with the knowledge that everyone she ever thought she could trust had somehow lied to her. From Sarabi shooing her away like a fragile liability ( when there wasn’t a soul who would argue against her being nothing short of an asset ) to Simba allowing her to believe he was dead for all those years ... it was a miracle to even consider she had a trusting bone left in her body.

But she did - perhaps it was just one - and it was reserved for Kiara. The younger Santucci was the only person in Nala’s life, to date, that had never once lied to her.  Nala could take her life and spin it in the palm of Kiara’s hand like a top and she could trust that the girl would not once allow it to stop spinning. She wouldn’t falter. It was the only relationship she ever had that not once lost its stability.

So when she saw Kiara, she felt a sense of relief. If this were any other say , there was no doubt that she would be livid. But Nala rushed to her and pulled her into an empty room without a word, only stopping to relax her shoulders once she had closed the door.

“I am so glad to see you,” she said with a sigh as she pulled the other girl into a hug. Kiara was the only person who always held Nala’s unwavering trust, her unsuspected solace among the craziness. And she knew in her gut that they had come home for similar reasons. They had the same goal. 

And Nala wasted no time to dive in head first.

“Scar’s working with Maleficent,” she said cooly, shoulders straightening on instinct as she stepped away. “They threw us in the middle of the lion’s den and told us it was a safe haven. Mheetu told me everything.” 

This was normally when Nala would start rattling off ideas. What she found, what she needed to find, how she could find it - but at the moment she was at a loss for words. She could go back and attempt to get info from the other side but ... how would she go about that when all of her networking was here?

“If Scar is somehow interfering with our lives halfway across the world then we have more of a problem than we thought we did. But, I don’t know how to fix it,” she admitted. It was the first time she didn’t at least have a semi confident solution.

“Kiara, what do we do?”

Jim’s business was booming. He had too many order sometimes but he managed. He may have done some modifications to his board. His simple skateboard was more of a hoverboard now. He did his best to disguise it. However, he’d caught the attention of Kiara. The girl was perceptive and she questioned Jim on how it worked rather than where it came from. They’d become pretty good friends after that. 

“You live like 3 buildings down from the post office.” Jim said as Kiara opened her door. “I appreciate the work but like, it’s right there, it kinda feels like I shouldn’t take your money and also like you should be picking it up yourself.”

NOTES: this starter contains mention of emetophobia and just a lot of death mentions, please skip if that content bothers you !

👻 ⠀  ⠀ ⠀  ⠀ ───────────  caspian   couldn’t   remember   the   last   time   he   had   an   ectoplasm   episode.   they   only   came   about   when   he   used   his   powers   too   much.   they   became   more   frequent   once   he   found   himself   dead   which   he   recently   learned   he   couldn’t   exactly   die.   well,   he   could   but   he   also   had   the   ability   to   return   if   he   so   wished.   the   more   he   stopped   blocking   his   powers   potential   the   more   insane   he   learned   they   were.   it   was   a   side   effect   he   had   been   able   to   keep   from   his   family.   caspian   had   felt   he   worried   them   enough   not   just   with   his   powers   but   in   general.   so   any   episodes   he   had   he   dealt   with   alone.   he   hadn’t   even   told   them   about   his   newest   power   discovery.   the   first   time   he   died   on   accident   he   had   sworn   dante   to   keep   it   between   them.   it   left   his   parents   wondering   where   his   white   streak   appeared   from   but   caspian   just   played   it   off   and   said   he   dyed   it.   after   ten   years   he   was   sure   they   didn’t   believe   that   to   be   true   anymore.   

in   the   midst   of   his   nightly   routine   caspian   began   feeling   his   chest   grow   tighter.   the   immense   pain   caused   him   to   grip   the   sides   of   the   sink   until   he   lifted   his   head   to   see   ectoplasm   leaking   from   his   mouth   and   eyes.      “   fuck   ”      he   whispered.   so   much   for   keeping   this   a   secret.   the   pain   had   become   excruciating   to   the   point   caspian   felt   his   knees   buckle.      “   h-hallie   !   ”      he   called   out.   the   last   thing   caspian   wanted   was   for   their   partner   to   see   them   in   any   weakened   state   but   he   also   didn’t   want   to   be   alone   during   this   episode   given   the   one   was   the   most   painful   to   date.

Sawyer approached Sav at their usual meeting spot, only this time, he had a binder in hand. Always having to be prepared and always needed the preparation to be perfect, Sawyer didn’t exactly miss a beat when he held the book out to her with his greeting. “Hey. So I was researching strange things that’ve happened around town for as long as it’s been here, and I found a good few places we could start. Wanna check them over?”
