// "Studying Until Midnight" Thread with @alphavelvetcake //

When Techno had offered help and assistance out to a familiar face - an individual that xe helps study - they weren't entirely sure what material they were going over. It happened in a frantic rush, remembering Redd approaching over whilst in a conversation with Quackity. It seemed they was having problems and needed to catch up with work that dangled far behind, unable to have a days rest, requesting Achilles for assistance. Quackity glanced between the duo before Techno gave a confirmation of helping the other out, it was the decent thing to do plus Redd is a quick learner. People seemed to view Achilles as a strong mentor figure or as the scary monster that went around in useless circles.

Rumors are pointless nowadays and yet the blog was something that loved chatting up shit. It was bizarre given the circumstances but as of recent? Techno hadn't heard anything being spoken about so that was a good sign.

Waiting in the library, they had arranged a day over some simple text messages and Achilles waited.

Waited.

Waited.

And Waited.

It was roughly 30 minutes after the time the duo were meant to meet up. It was actually a little concerning. Xe sent a text message over but no reply as of wait. Achilles is a pretty patient person and time ticked. They weren't expecting Redd to show up at this rate and was proven wrong when a familiar figure slumped downwards in the chair opposite them. Looking worn out and exhausted, Techno raised an eyebrow. Whilst xe couldn't speculate properly what had happened, Redd looked way too tired, out of breath and overall purely exhausted. The individual had gone into the shoulder bag to pull out a protein bar, sliding it over to them as well as a bottle of water. Quackity gave xem extras and figured xe could use the food and drink. Even if it was little, it'd be something. He was slowly collecting his breath and Techno waited, sending idle texts to Quackity considering she was curious about the scenario that displayed. Techno told her. Hands tapped against the phone until pocketing it and speaking up finally. "How you feeling?"

Now, Achilles isn't one for words, words were difficult. At least verbally. So, there had been silent communication, actions speaking louder than any sort of language. "When you're ready, we can start studying, alright? Take your time." Achilles spoke softly, eyes flickering through the library. They were tucked away in a secluded area, a corner that Techno had found middle of first year and now always camped whenever possible. Even when other bodies loved harassing Achilles with unnecessary questions. Though, for now, xe pulled a book out, the material they had supposedly meant to study and started to catch up, ensuring that the info was stored in their head.

Studying Until Midnight // thread with @protesilauslegacy

In all honestly, they have absolutely no idea how five minutes turned into half an hour.

Evie's squawking still rings around the emptiness of their mind. They aren't quite sure what they did wrong; their routine was followed down to the T, as always. Something seemed to irritate her more than usual and, unfortunately, they aren't fluent in nonsensical gibberish and couldn't exactly ask her what the matter was. The sleeve of their shirt, around the shoulder area, is still somewhat damp with crocodile tears. They couldn't soothe salt with a gentle tone and mellow circles rubbed into her back, so she made sure to snivel and smear spittle all over their clothing. Maybe they deserve it, even if her distress nearly brought them to the verge of tears themself. That is the most pathetic part.

The sobbing stopped as soon as they reached the daycare and Redd began to wonder if they were the problem. If, in Evelyn's vision, they adorn devilish horns and a forked tongue and take up the role of the monster that claws her from her bed at the break of dawn. She'd never understand if they were to tell her it's for her own good (and, really, that would be lying -- taking her to daycare is for their own convenience, because they will not even give up school for the person that means the most to them). Later, as always, she'll love them again. Velvet will cradle her in their arms and she'll wrap her fingers around their thumb as if she did not shatter their heart mere hours ago, but they'll never let that be known. Innocence will remain oblivious and bloom into a little sweetheart they have worked so hard to take care of.

But right now, Redd is thirty minutes late to a study session with Techno, and petty apologies are the only thing that spiral throughout xyr mind in tandem with high-pitched screeching and big teary eyes. Xe didn't expect to be so overwhelmed upon leaving the apartment today, but with how late xe already is, it'd just be rude not to show up or cancel beyond the meeting time. So xe sucks it up. Ignores the strain as the inner walls of xyr throat constrict and power-walks into the library. The ringing in xyr ears is too loud for xem to pick up on how loud xe slammed the door open; several glaring eyes make it clear. Redd refuses to meet them. Instead, vivid rose is quick to catch xyr attention and xe makes xyr way over to where Techno is sitting, alone. A shadow of guilt nips at xyr ankles and xe's chased quicker over to an empty seat.

"So sorry," xe breathes upon sliding onto the chair. Letting a backpack slip from xyr arms and settle on the floor beside xem. Exhausted does not even begin to describe xem. The shadows beneath xyr eyes are so dark they almost look to be sinkholes. Carved out of xyr flesh and bone. Velvet pants like a dog with a hand held up in pause, catching xyr breath and whatever composure xe has left. At first, xe does not even notice Techno's offering, eyes squeezed shut and throat hoarse, terribly dry with harsh air and billowing cirrus clouds. "Yeah, 'm fine," he manages to get out amidst his struggle for oxygen. A yawn, cloying tears gather at his eyes. They do not spill and he blinks quickly. Then, the protein bar is cautiously brought into his hand and he mumbles his thanks. "Yeah, yeah, I'm ready, sorry. We can start."

You Make me Want to Try Loving you // thread with @antovz

Just the mere thought of spending a night anywhere but the side of their little bundle of joy back at home has an underlying anxiety crawling beneath their skin. Redd feels odd whenever they stray from such a strict schedule. They throw a glance down at a watch around their wrist; around this time, they would be tucking Evelyn into bed. Wrapping her up tight within a plush blanket to keep her cosy while they read -- if exhaustion doesn't gnaw at their coherence -- the same children's book that they have repeated every night for the past month. They're almost certain they could recite it all by heart and repaint the images if they were demanded to. Evie would repeat the words that sound amusing and run her fingers along textured pictures until their voice lulled her to sleep... temporarily. As peaceful as she looks in her slumber, Redd has grown used to teary eyes and a quivering bottom lip showing up beside them at absurd hours of the morning. It's strange to be outdoors right now rather than sinking into their mattress with the desperate need to rest before common interruption chased them awake again.

He isn't supposed to be thinking about Evie right now. She is safe and taken care of back at home, by a sitter he barely managed to afford. It was a hasty, last-minute and, quite frankly, foolish decision. But something kept him from admitting to Antonov that he has one too many things keeping him busy. He knows Cupid isn't the biggest fan of him. Gentle cherubs have had to pick up the remains of shattered hearts he left in his wake in the past, and karma is catching up agonizingly slowly. He is sure that he has fallen hard. Hard enough to fuck up his priorities already and show up to the school dance, dressed in something other than hoodies and slacks or the bakery's uniform -- he still has yet to thank Fundy in person for the money spent on this night alone, though it makes him ache to think about.

Walking into the building is the worst part. He hopes that he will be lost within the crowd and, despite the vividness of stark red hair, attention will not be drawn to him. Hopefully he will fit in among others styled better than himself. Maybe he can find a corner to hide in until Ant drags him away from his own misery, lost in the nervousness of publicity and the lack of his child's presence.

..He could really use a guide right about now.

neapolitan <33

Neapolitan— Do you have a favorite scent? Scents that you like in perfume, in candles, and in general?

Uhh, not really? I guess I don't really think about that stuff too much. I mean, considering that I work in a bakery, I guess the scent of pastries and cakes and all that yummy stuff is around pretty frequently. I'd say I like those, but then again, I'm so used to them I hardly pay attention to what they actually smell like, y'know?

Candles smell good, I guess. Fire smells nice sometimes. Okay, technically yes, it's just.. inhaling smoke and embers, but it does kinda smell nice. If you, uh, if you meant scented candles, then I've got no fucking clue. I swear they all smell exactly the same with different weird, fancy names or something.

Redd's a sucker for stupid puns and shitty pick-up lines. Upon opening the card, xe rolls xyr eyes playfully and a grin spreads across xyr face. It's one of the most cheesy things xe's ever heart and it makes xem want to physically cringe. Crease xyr eyebrows, urge an awkward smile and all. It's snapped shut after a moment, but xe'll keep that somewhere safe and mock Callie about it later.
