That Dream Is All I Have

Alex Aves || 6th Year || Ravenclaw Alex Aves- not Alexandra. Only my parents call me that... No longer single as a pringle Ready to not be on this island anymore, ready to fight the fight, right.

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

Yeah… I still love her though, so… 

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

I understand that feeling...well, I guess I wish you the best then. 

[king-will-grey-blog]

It’s who I am. I’m an ass. Thanks for the “help” but I don’t need it.

Not to have fun. Not to be the “hero”. I’m just going crazy here. I also want to see if there’s anything going on out there and see if anyone can stop the war. I may be an asshole, but I’m not heartless. Remember that. I’m tired of people’s parents dying. 

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

*crosses her arms and takes a breath* Well, good luck I guess.

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

I…I don’t know. It’s what it seems…but she’s telling me something different… I would rather there not be rumors going around…she doesn’t deserve that, especially not right now. For the sake of her health…I’m going to say the rumors aren’t true… 

Yeah….. I guess I am. ….Maybe.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Okay...well thanks for setting that straight.

Maybe?

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

Eh…it’s whatever now I guess.. nothing I can do about it, what’s done is done, I suppose.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

So they're true then? Did she..uh..actually cheat on you?

But youre right...moving on would be the best.

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

Nah..I’m just tired… of everything. I’ve been doing too much for so many people and it’s cost me a lot so… I’m just done with it all to be honest. 

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

I can't really deny it..I've heard the rumours. I'm sorry about...that.

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

Yeah, being nice to people only leaves you wounded and hurt and broken on the inside…being nice is for squares…. like your face.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Boy, did that sound venomous..

Is there more going on behind those words Marcus?

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

Really? No wonder it felt weird to say…left a sour taste in my mouth. Don’t get used to it, babes. 

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Thanks for not letting that high last long. 'Babes' now that's more what I'm used to.

Maybe I should take back the glasses compliment? Being nice to people lately hasnt exactly been fulfilling anyways,

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

Aw, really? That’s so sweet, Alex. I kind of miss them too myself

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Sweet? Really? Well that's new, I dont think you've ever called me sweet before.

[weatherby-onthe-marc]

New Haircut…. but I need new contacts again…soooo looks like I’m wearing glasses again for a while….. 

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

To be honest, I missed the glasses for a while there.

[king-will-grey-blog]

Well I am. Don’t know when, or how, but I’m coming back.

Well, gold star for effort because obviously it didn’t work. I don’t know why you expected me to be nice to you, of all people. You should’ve known this conversation wasn’t going to end with me just believing your “voice of reason”, especially without me being an ass. Oh, yeah, I’ll have loads of fun.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Well excuse me, I was just trying to help you, why do you have to be an ass to people you hardly know anyways? its ridiculous. 

Aren't you getting off the island to go have fun anyways? To go be the hero, or whatever.

[king-will-grey-blog]

They’ll be fine. It’s not like I’m leaving indefinitely. Are you insinuating that I’m going to die?

No shit, Sherlock. Are you my mother? I’ll be fine. Even if I won’t, it won’t matter.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

No- no I wasn't. You just weren't making it sound like you wanted to come back. 

Well fine. I was just trying to be a voice of reason but whatever. Its not like your ever nice to anyone else, I dont know why I tried to be nice to you at all. Have fun off the island.

[king-will-grey-blog]

OkAy, you do that. I know what I heard, though, and it wasn’t sarcasm, but okay.

I know you’re not going to change your stance on this, but neither am I. I’m leaving the island ans that’s that. If I die, that’s on me. Not on anyone else. I’m going and no one can stop me.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Aren't you dating someone here? Sutton? You're just gonna leave here and the baby? 

Its dangerous out there, Will. 

[king-will-grey-blog]

That wasn’t sarcasm. I would know. I’m fluent in it.

Well nothings happening here, if you couldn’t see. At this point I’d rather do my own agenda than wait for something to happen. We’ve been on this island for 6 months now and you think we’d be doing something to help people. But we haven’t done a damn thing. People are dying out there, and as grateful as I am that I’m safe, they aren’t. So while we’re worried about a fucking relationship which, personally, I don’t give a fuck about, people are losing their goddamn lives.

Really? What are we learning to fight for? We don’t know what the hell we’re up against. Hell, we don’t know anything. Look, you have fun staring at the “flora and fauna”, training people against you have no clue what, and waiting on orders that are never coming. While you’re doing that, I’ll be out actually saving lives.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

I think I'll be the judge of whether or not I was being sarcastic- thanks. 

*bites her lip then shifts her weight* You're right... you make valid points, I'll give you that. I just don't think we should make such rash decisions.  At least we're a group here...if you go off on your own you wont have as much force. Niles and Midas are doing their best to set up the best strategy and plan of attack... I'm sorry and I know its hard but we just have to have faith in them.

[king-will-grey-blog]

[ raises an eyebrow ] You kinda just said you were freaking out, so.

[ rolls his eyes ] Honestly? I don’t know why those two left. Nor do I care. But I do that the reason for me leaving wouldn’t be because I’m giving up on the revolution thing but more so for my mental health. There’s nothing to do on this island and if I spend another day here, I’m seriously going to go crazy. If I leave and other people do, oh well. Who says they’re giving up the revolution? You need to stop making assumptions.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Sarcasm? Come on, I thought you'd at least be smart enough to understand that.

Leaving the island means not being in touch with the people who are leading the revolution, leaving the island means going off to accomplish your own personal agenda. I'm not assuming, I'm just stating what's true. We just have to stick it out, keep pushing through until we hear something and we get orders. 

There's stuff to do on the island if you think about it. I've started fight training, maybe start learning the fauna and flora of the island, that could be useful. Really, you just need to get creative.

[king-will-grey-blog]

So sorry about freaking you out, I hadn’t realized that my actions affected you. Even though they don’t at all. What commotion is going to cause, really? “Ahh people are leaving the island, let’s riot against this!” Yeah, right. Like I said: calm down.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

*scoffs* I'm not freaking out. 

*crosses her arms* It's common sense- if people continue to do what Scarlett and Liam did, then more and more people will begin to think its okay, and they'll give up on the revolution, give up on the partisans. Leaving the island means giving up on what we're working so hard on. If you follow, more people could follow after that.

[king-will-grey-blog]

People actually cared about them. Only Sutton cares about me but she’d move on, if I left. I wouldn’t cause an commotion, so you need to calm down.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Yes, because this is me freaking out. I'm just saying, if more people continue to leave its going to cause some sort of problem.

[king-will-grey-blog]

I wonder when we’re getting off this damn island. I’m sick and tired of looking at the same scenery every day. Maybe I’ll follow the example of Steele and Rhodes and leave the island without telling anybody.

[alex-notalexandra-aves]

Really? Those two have caused the most commotion since we got here, if you want to cause more drama by leaving, I guess go right ahead.
