where: the park

"Thanks for coming," Dallas says to someone he had just discovered was living in the same building as him. It was a reminder to him that he needed to pay more attention to his neighbours, though there rarely seemed like there was enough hours in the day for that.

His gaze flickers over to the swings where his son was pushing her daughter on one, clearly heeding his father's directive to not do it so fast.

"It's nice to put a face to the name. Colt's not stopped talking about Theo since school started, it's sweet."

"All I said is I would get her a crochet flower." Baz explains as he strolls alongside his cousin, gesturing to his niece-of-sorts who was happily playing with the yellow crochet flower he had acquired, just as he said.

"Never said anything about the how."

Good thing too, because Theo was an unwitting accomplice of sorts, which was the most fun part of being related to someone who had a kid. He had a built in partner-in-crime that was too cute for anyone to say anything.

"You having the time of your life yet?"

"So--" Cass cleared their throat in lieu of a traditional pause. "What did you think?" In all honesty they were a bit nervous. Wasn't everyday they read a story to a five year old, let alone something of their own. This particular one Cass had started years ago when Theo was what? Three? Chances were she was no where near interested in the same things. But Cass had did their best to alter it, lace in some universal kid humor and yeah-- they were still nervous as fuck as they shut the mock up book, their hand done illustrations now hidden.

They straighten up, arms leaving their knees as they glanced from Theo to Tabs from their spot criss cross apple sauce on the floor of their place. It was a really odd feeling, considering they were typically so confident when it came to writing. The only thing-- or rather person, really giving them pause being Eden, but that was another story.

Kieran couldn't help but be a little spaced out, the man was lost in thought about what he was going to doodle on his napkin that he barely had time to go over the menu. "Oh —" He began, realizing now the bell signaled his arrival. "Honestly, what do you recommend, everything sounds great." He said before offering her a smile, hoping that'd buy him some time from his mistake.

who: anyone! ( @aurorabaystarter ) where: all night diner As the young waitress was leaning over the counter, her eyes were firmly placed on the book that was spread open in front of her, Tabitha barely noticed the trickle of the bell that signalled a customer. Considering the diner was empty, besides the newest arrival, she didn't consider this to be slacking on the job.

The sound of footsteps brought her back down to Earth and she fought hard to suppress her annoyance at being disturbed. Finally, her eyes peeled away from the page as she asked, “What can I get you?”

"Hey kid, I got a question," Gideon calls as he steps out of his managers office, a tablet in hand and glasses resting on his nose as he steps into the kitchen.

"I got an opening for a double next week, you want first dibs on it or should I start asking around?"

"Our UBEReats should be here in approximately-"

Fletcher holds his wrist up, no sign of a watch anywhere as he pretends to check the time, and then drops his arm lazily to his side. "I don't know. Maybe thirty minutes. My phone's in the back." It's a slow mid-morning shift. After breakfast came and went, the patronage to the diner considerably dropped to the point of having zero customers under their roof.

"It's only rain. A little water falls from the sky, and Californians act like they're made of sugar." It doesn't bode well for tips, but at least he and Tabitha can kill time polishing silverware.

How fun.

"Maybe we can see if Gideon wants to cut the floor. After we eat, if we don't pick up. I can handle our lack of diners until the afternoon shift comes in. I'll probably make another whopping five dollars at this rate."

alma tilts herself of an angle to catch the tuff of blonde hair moving through the gaps of swimwear that divided them. "yeah, over there." she motions her hand towards the other side of the store, however not paying too much care to see if the strange actually caught the direction. "we got an order today in the back, so like, unless you're super desperate to get something now we got some better stuff than what's on the rack."

@tabithaxking

The hanger Tabitha moved across scraped across the metal rack as she quickly eyed each piece on display. So far, it was hard to distinguish what was made for children and what was for scantily clad influencers on the beach. The amount of fabric seemed to be the same. "Do you have a kid's section?" She asked the sales attendant who approached her. It seemed easier to ask now that the woman was nearby. "My daughter is starting swimming lessons and her old bathers don't fit anymore." Growth spurts were a pain in the ass.

Unfortunately, Ash isn’t joining in on the first week of tourist season at the bars, as he is working. He’d been standing outside the front door of Surf's Up, listening to the waves crashing on the opposite side of the dunes, and the sunset is painting the sky a pretty orange for him to watch from where he's shackled.

Shackled being an exaggeration, Asher has never hated his job, he's just struggling with a heavy feeling of F.O.M.O. this day in particular.

And just in that moment, he sees the beacon of hope that is to kill his boredom in the form of Tabitha King wielding a take-out bag... as per his request.

"Ay, you came through! I was wondering if you were on your way. My phone's dead and charging in the cashier stand, so I couldn't text you."

Keo: Forreal? That's a crazy mindset to have in 2024. But at the same time, I'm not that surprised given the way my mom gossips about people, can be brutal. Try not to get yourself burned at the stake, that would suck for me Keo: 😂 I can see why it sounds appealing though if you're a five year old girl. I'd want to be where the pink ponies are clubbing Keo: I 100% will, I owe you big time 🙏🏻 Cash in any time @tabithaxking

Tabitha: HA no i get them for having a child out of wedlock like its the 1800s and women still get sold into marriage to not burden their families Tabitha: she does think the piny pony club is a real place, wants to have her birthday there and i haven't had the heart to tell her yet Tabitha: 🙄 Tabitha: fine Tabitha: but you're paying for materials and labor Tabitha: this isn't a sweatshop ( @keolalagaaia )

[bazhowletts]

shooting star: who is someone you trust to help you make the right decisions?

"Tabitha's pretty quick to tell me I'm an idiot. I'm pretty sure she would at the very least send me on the scenic route to the right path if I asked her. And if not, Theo's always got my back. That's bestie, she taught me that." @tabithaxking
