9 and 26 for the peek inside ask meme !

nine .. with leaving home addy's junk drawer for a while was her glove compartment it was filled to the brim with takeout napkins, road maps, eyeglass repair kits and backup glasses, condiment packets, pictures of gracie and daniel that she took with her ..

post-canon after addy moves into the carters' spare bedroom her junk drawer is more filled with spare screws and bolts, still eyeglass repair kits, sketches and notes about their projects and repairs for the truck post-canon, pens and chopsticks of all things .. the pictures this time are hung up with twine ..

twenty six .. addy mostly listens to the music the rest of the wranglers listen to, the playlists she made with the tamers archived soon after the funerals .. the most used one becomes the one she makes with javi and kate for pitch demonstrations, repairs of the old barn, study sessions after el reno

❛ you can't just dip your toes in ! ❜ abilene laughed , pushing wet hair from her face . the water was cold , but damn it felt good - better than the stagnant , hot summer air . she could already feel the heat leeching off of her and the flush of her cheeks beginning to fade . she splashed some water towards kate with a giggle . ❛ you want me to push you ? ❜

the  pain  in  his  head  had  since  subsided  from  something  all-encompassing  and  rather  debilitating  to  something  a  little  more  manageable  .      it  no  longer  runs  circles  around  his  brain  ,      but  stays  localized  now  to  the  very  spot  that  metal  had  clocked  him  .      by  some  miracle  ,      it  was  the  blunt  face  that  had  hit  him        if  he  had  been  clipped  by  one  of  its  sharp  edges  ,      no  doubt  he  would  be  in  much  worse  shape  than  this  .      again  .      only  one  grave  wound  to  his  head  is  enough  for  his  entire  lifetime  .      maybe  even  two  .

@t4mingstorms  .      kate  wasn't  a  medic    ,      not  in  the  slightest  but  her  lack  of  experience  did  not  lessen  her  concern  or  stop  her  from  trying  to  help    .      the  guilt  aside  that  it  was  him  that  took  the  sign  to  the  head    ,      she  was  still  too  wrapped  in  the  worry  of  it  all    ,      of  him    ,      to  let  the  relief  come  over  her    .      handing  over  an  ice  pack    ,      the  frown  lines  don’t  leave  her    .      they  stay  ghosted  upon  her  features  as  she  tries  to  discern  if  he  was  withholding  how  bad  it’d  been  when  she  left  with  little  more  than  a  scrape  and  bruise    .      “  how’s  your  head  ?      still  seeing  two  of  me  ?  “      (  oh  hi  friend  !  )

his  first  instinct  is  to  let  out  a  soft  groan  ,      accompanied  by  the  faintest  of  smiles  ,      partially  apologetic  and  mostly  plain  tired  .        ❝        no  ,        ❞        he  hums  ,        ❝        just  one  now  .      glad  i  haven’t  started  hearing  two  of  you  .      so    …    so  thank  god  for  that  .        ❞        it’s  a  bid  to  lighten  the  mood  ,      although  it  barely  has  an  impact  and  his  mind  isn’t  working  well  enough  to  make  even  the  context  of  it  work  .      by  all  means  ,      his  thoughts  feel  stuck  ,      inaccessible  and  going  nowhere  any  time  soon  .

❝        i’m  fine  ,      kate  .        ❞        he  lifts  his  chin  ,      shaking  out  his  shoulders  in  a  show  of  it  ,      though  he  keeps  the  pack  of  ice  pressed  firmly  against  his  aching  head  ,      between  the  center  top  and  his  ear  .        ❝        better  that  i’m  still  talkin’  .      it’s  not  a  concussion  .        ❞

@t4mingstorms asked: have you seen yourself ?

the rain had hit faster than they'd anticipated. conditions weren't impossible, but their return would take longer than predicted & would certainly be messier than was originally called for. water accumulated faster than the ground could soak it up, and his back tires had been left spinning before they could reach the main road. between boone & himself, they'd pushed it far enough to get all four tires back on solid ground. he was sure that the inside of the truck was just as filthy as the outside after they'd climbed back into the cabin. clothes were drenched from the downpour, and both men had tracked more dirt in with them than had been in the pit his tires were stuck in. crank the heat, crank the music. the ride back was filled with laughter & scattered showers.

he'd sent boone to get cleaned up when they'd pulled back in to the motel. there was no use cleaning up the truck with the rain still coming down in sheets, and despite the heat from the vents, the chill that settled into his bones wasn't easily dispelled. he could feel the gritty texture of the earth sticking to his face, his neck, every sliver of skin visible. what he'd tried to rub from his eyes had probably turned his face into quite the sight. he hadn't expected to see kate waiting just outside their motel room. in all fairness, she probably hadn't expected to see him, either. not like this.

a smile slowly rises to his lips at her question, taking a look down at himself rather dramatically. " what do you mean?! " he feigns shock, his smile remaining strong though his brows raise incredulously. dripping wet, caked in mud, shoulders shaking slightly when he couldn't repress the cold. a sight to behold. " i look great! " with a shrug, he raises his arms and looks at her mischievously. he holds his arms open welcomingly, a messy invitation. " you know, i missed you. thought you might want a hug. " sharing is caring, after all.

@t4mingstorms asked: can you just tell me everything’s going to be okay?

if only it were that easy. kate had been the one he'd been chasing the last time he'd found himself at the carter's farm, and he desperately wished the chase that had brought him back had been as altruistic. while the season's storms may have died down in frequency, there wasn't any rhyme or reason to the intensity. they'd been tracking cells just north of henryetta that had been moving west . . . until the winds had shifted. close to fifty miles outside of sapulpa, there was a strong chance those cells would die out before they turned into anything that would put the town at risk. but there was never any promise of that.

they'd come to wait it out, help if needed. rain was moving in if nothing else, and while he wasn't one to give advice to the woman who'd kept this place running without so much as a second opinion, he also wasn't one to stand by if he could lend a hand. he found kate where he thought he would . . . watching the radar in the old barn. " we got the animals out of the rain. wind's picking up a bit. " he walks up to stand behind her, peaking over her shoulder at the latest doppler reading. CAN YOU JUST TELL ME EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE OKAY? they both knew that wasn't how this worked. " i can tell you that your mom's not worried about it. " he offers, reaching out to lay a hand on her shoulder. " i can also tell you that we've been tracking pretty low instability with this storm, which means that chances of anything greater than what we've got now are pretty low. but you know that. " he can't confidently say that everything will be okay because he can't risk being wrong. " and i'll say that no matter what happens, it's probably a good thing that we're here. "

❛ Love is weird. ❜ ( hi ! )

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ@t4mingstorms | ANSWERED.

the capitol was unlike any other city in panem , resplendent with glittering buildings that touched the sky and people dressed like . . . absurdities . during the games , however , it seemed like everything was taken up a notch . screens were everywhere , showcasing the games live , people packed together so tightly that abilene felt the night was nearly as warm as the day , gossiping and whispering at the damn show -

abilene couldn't watch . she would glance at the screen on occasion , only long enough to see her boy before distracting herself again . she had a drink in her hand , something vividly pink that tasted like strawberries but left a soft burn in the back of her throat . at the comment , she laughed .

❛ it surely is . ❜ abilene shook her head , but moved slightly on the bench she sat on to allow for space for the other woman . the two tributes from twelve - katnip , no, katniss and peeta . . . star crossed lovers , it was almost believable on the screen . ❛ you ever felt it before ? ❜

@t4mingstorms asked: 036. a long , winding road.

the midwest was beautiful in its own way. land was fairly flat, which meant that it stretched on endlessly. you could see the sun meet the horizon, watch the moon peak over the road behind them. as much as he found it to be captivating, he also knew that even the shortest of trips could feel never - ending without a change of scenery. this road coasted over small hills & dipped between crops that were too close to the road. they'd been the only traffic to be seen for miles.

" best snack when you're on the road ── go. " he hadn't run out of things to say yet, and this seemed an appropriate topic of conversation. " i will absolutely be judging your character based on this answer. "
