@takealook-fall said : what are you planning, exactly? ( emma to alyssa )
“I don’t know,” Alyssa says, shaking her head. “A nice time out? I know driving way out of town for a date isn’t the most romantic thing ever, but we wouldn’t have to worry about what anyone else thought about us. We could just be us.” Alyssa knows she’s the one that’s really worrying. Emma’s come out, she’s not afraid to stand up for herself. Alyssa’s scared to even suggest that she might not like boys. “It could be fun. I can drive us and we can listen to music and see a movie and just.... I don’t know. Be us.”

he had a hard time believing all night that this was real and even if it wasn’t real, that he would be allowed to stay in this fantasy of his. he sat at the head table with jenny by his side and he was eating the most delicious cake that he has ever tasted in his life, but still found himself staring at the beautiful woman next to him in complete and utter awe. he was almost afraid that she would disappear at any point, reaching out to hold her hand.
“jenny... you are my wife, can you believe that? i can’t believe it, jenny, the girl of my dreams, is actually my wife.”
@takealook-fall ! for jenny

“It’s alright, Mimi. I’m not going anywhere. I promise.” He holds her against his chest, smoothing back her hair. “I’m here. I’m not lettin’ you go.”

@takealook-fall (Lex) said “there’s no way that EVERYBODY was kung-fu fighting.”
“I know it sounds ridiculous, but that’s what the song says.” It wasn’t something that really kept her awake at night, but in her mind, having a debate over a song was better than having to sing for a customer. Plus she liked Lex; the younger girl reminded her a bit of herself when she was younger. “It doesn’t have to mean everyone in the world was doing it. He could just be talking about the people that live wherever the story is set.”

@takealook-fall / it’s a miracle that grandpa’s old truck made it to the mall in this weather. frankly, it’s a wonder the stupid thing even runs at all, but today is a special exception. with school being cancelled, the old man thought of spoiling emily and peter by taking them to the mall —
but emily’s phone says that the road are slick as ever, and the snow is building up to over four feet. and worse than that ... the entire mall is dark. there’s the faint glow of emergency lights in the distance, but the warm and welcoming allure of ‘open’ signs and store fronts is dead, all while the wind howls outside.
“no ... i tried texting my dad, but it won’t send —“ peter is too young for a cellphone, and grandpa doesn’t trust them. they always meet at the food court at a scheduled time, but emily’s thinking their trip should end sooner than later. she notices the anxiety etched so clearly on lex’s face, although she tries to hide it.
“are ethan and hannah here with you today? i’m sure they’re okay ... they’ll probably be on their way to find you any minute now.”

@takealook-fall LIKED FOR EMILY! / you know, this precious time before school could be spent studying, or catching up on homework, or — anything besides running around the school and trying to avoid a senior boy. she deliberately showed up early, knowing he’s late to every class he’s enrolled in, and yet somehow, emily’s cornered. no one is in the band room, thank god, so she shuts the door behind her and pushes a puny, plastic chair in front of the handle.
with a sigh of relief, emily plops onto her ass and curls her knees up to her chest — until a muffled yet gorgeous tune reaches her ear. emily crawls across the carpeted floor on her hands and knees (it hurts like hell, but she doesn’t want to be seen) towards its source: a practice room.
“hey —“ once rising to her feet, the blonde knocks on the glass; immediately after, she throws a thumbs up; “you sound amazing in there!”

❝ don’t laugh, ❞ she says with a light chuckle of her own, glancing sideways at her cousin. some might say it was a little silly or naive to constantly think of marriage, but at their age, one could suppose that it was almost... practical to have such thoughts. finding a good match was difficult now, what with the war going on; she and natasha were lucky to have men promised to them before it began. just a pity that andrei and nikolai were off fighting instead of being with them. ❝ i just want a nice, easy life once i’m wed --- i’ve never been too fond of extravagant parties or extravagant anything. what’s wrong with that ? ❞
@takealook-fall - for natasha ! send 💬 for a starter with a random line of dialogue.

@takealook-fall / lex & alice !
She was supposed to go out and see Mamma Mia with her dad and her girlfriend, to finally get a chance for them to get along. It seemed like faith had other plans in store as she was stuck back in school through a thunderstorm, the opportunity for her dad and girlfriend to get along together being nowhere in sight.
No, she was stuck with something mythical and cryptic, her only source of sanity being another girl from her class. Alice only knew her through Debby, knowing that they often went out to smoke together.
❝ Do you think the cops are coming? ❞ she inquired, daring herself to take a look at Lex.
Did they even know how to handle a situation like this?

[ @takealook-fall said: there ain’t no hope for us. from laurey? ]
“Hope Is Something You Decide If You Have Or Not!” The Toy Soldier said cheerfully. “If You Do Not Believe There Is Hope, Then There Is No Hope! But If You Think There Is Hope, Then You Have Given Yourself Hope!” It bounced in place for a bit, just excited to be talking to someone. “Only You Decide How Much Hope You Have!” It wasn’t sure if it was being helpful or not. It hoped it was.

@takealook-fall said : i think it’s pretty cruel dea to eurydice?
“I know. I do too.” Eurydice shakes her head slowly, sighing. “But we have to keep going. No matter what. Right? There’s not much else to do except give up, and I’m not giving up.”

he was sweating up a storm but it was all in a day’s work, he had hardly realized that the day had flown by if it weren’t for lex in the front seat of his latest project, occasionally reminding him that he needed to take a break. finally stepping back from being hunched underneath the hood for what seemed to be hours, his hands would reach for the hand towel strung across his shoulder with a huff before calling out over the music. “hey, babe, could you do me a favor and get her started for a sec?”
@takealook-fall ! for lex

@takealook-fall: 🤞 — a muse that would get along well with yours. adelaide or mimi?
“ -- 𝑪𝑶𝑼𝑹𝑺𝑬 𝑰𝑻 𝑨𝑰𝑵'𝑻 𝑯𝑬𝑨𝑽𝑬𝑵 . “ sitting outside the bar , waiting for night to fall . there’s a chill in the air . CHRISTMAS BELLS ARE RINGING , CHRISTMAS BELLS ARE RINGING . SOMEWHERE ELSE . NOT HERE. eurydice’s smile resembles a grimace , the coat on her thin shoulders can barely keep her covered , the lit cigarette in her hands is the only warmth she can muster . like others on the street , she has shadows under her eyes . like others on the street , she has track marks along her arm . “ but there’s no where else for us . “

@takealook-fall liked for a starter!
muses : christine & meg
"What’s he like?” Meg can’t help but be curious. Christine’s life seems so mysterious to her, something much more complicated and interesting than Meg’s own life, or the lives they’d had as children. Her dark eyes turn up to look at Christine as they sit together, stretching after rehearsal. “The angel of music. What’s he like?”

@takealook-fall (Jenny) said “where the fuck is he?”
At the question, Lucy blinked, tilting her head to the side innocently. “Whomever do you mean?” She asked, taken aback by the question. She hadn’t spoken to many people since she started working with Professor Hidgens, so she wasn’t quite sure who the other woman was looking for.
