Archer

Archer of DunBroch | 23 | Drearwood

archer-d​:

Archer had successfully avoided Finley since their awkward encounter at the pizza shop. He didn’t want to see his ex and be reminded of the pain, and thankfully had no classes with the boy.

He walked down the hall to his class, his eyes focused on his phone. “Oof.” He huffed out, stumbling back as someone knocked into him. He looked up, frowning as he realized who’d been the cause of the accident. “oh. Hi.” He said, eyeing Finley as he put his phone in his pocket. “I guess that’s what I get for walking and texting my mum.” He joked with a slightly forced chuckle.

Finley scratches the back of his neck, forcing a chuckle of his own. “Nah, it’s my own fault. I wasn’t paying attention where I was going.” Finley glances him over, making sure he didn’t accidentally injure him at all. “No harm no foul, yeah?”  He asks, continuing to scratches at the back of his neck. “Maybe I could make it up to you? We could grab a bite to eat if you aren’t busy.”

[archer-d]

Archer's brow raised as Finley offered for them to go get a bite to eat. He wasn't sure what angle his ex was getting at, but he hoped it was a good one. "I - yeah. Lets do it." He said, his stomach rumbling at the thought of food. He was heading towards the cafeteria anyways, so he didn't have an excuse to get out of it.

Archer headed into the school’s gym, thinking no one would be in so early in the morning. He headed over to the padded floor, starting to go through his usual workout routine. Living with his mother meant that he was always partaking in some sort of physical activity, and he wasn’t going to break the habit now. He heard the gym door open and just ignored it, focusing on his repetitions.

@tidalswept (JC and Archer)

The boy almost lived in the gym these days. If he wasn’t out with his friends at a bar he was in the gym, doing sets and keeping his body in shape. James P. Sullivan, his father, had been very intent on keeping in shape even when they were monsters and JC prides himself on the way his human body looks. 

So, when he woke up that morning he had decided to come - not realizing his friend would be there also. Walking in the boy laughs watching as the other works out - ‘Well look what the monster cat dragged in!’ He exclaims as he makes his way to his friend, watching carefully. 

[archer-d]

Archer smiled as he heard his friend's familiar voice. "JC! Hey man what's up? Seems a little early for you today." He said, stopping his workout for a moment to go over and give his friend a quick hug. "No hangover from a party last night?" He asked, knowing JC loved his parties and his drinking. Archer had attended a few of those parties, but he preferred being outdoors with a small group rather than at a massive party in a frat house.

After accidentally bumping into his ex at Pizza Planet, Finley couldn’t get the other boy off his mind. It was almost worrying how Archer had taken over his every thought, and the more Finley thought about him the more he missed him. He wishes he took back the breakup and the harsh words exchanged between them, but he’s afraid the damage was already done.

The pair had unintentionally been playing a cat and mouse game with each other, avoiding any interaction and eye contact as much as possible. It seemed their little game had come to an end when Finley had accidentally bumped into him in the hallways before class. He had been trying to avoid someone he thought looked like Archer, only to bump into the man himself.

“Oof.” Finely groaned, quickly readjusting the books in his arms. He harshly bumped shoulders with the person and nearly knocked him down. “I’m so sorry I didn’t mean too .. Oh god.” He froze, pausing in his apology.

 “i don’t get it.” she said leaning forward and observing the food that was served to her. campus food was okay but on certain days she found things questionable. “you know… not once since i have been here has anything tried to crawl off my plate. honestly it’s all been dead and i can tell you exactly what is in it…not back home.” he was a child of repetitive behavior and boy, she had been missing her spooky home of halloweentown more and more the closer the month got. 

looking over at the boy she found looked questionably familiar as she easily forgot faces and names and smiled. “hey, kid. you going to eat that? i have a plant in my dorn that would swallow it whole if you’re not. best not let it go to waste, right?” 

@archer-d​

[archer-d]

Archer sat at the other end of the table, scrolling on his phone and eating his burger. He had a second helping sitting on a tray next to him, which likely led the girl to believe it wouldn't be eaten. "Oh, Ember, hi!" He said, glancing over and setting down his phone. "It's Archer, from the lake." He added, noticing that she didn't remember his name. "That's actually my second meal. I have a big appetite." He said, chuckling slightly. "But I'm sure we can find something good to feed your plant."

Archer loved being at Drearwood, but he couldn't stand the close quarters and being indoors all the time. He had spent his whole life in the wild training with his mother. He headed to the stables, thankful that the school still had it. Once he'd gotten his horse ready, he grabbed his bow and arrow and headed out towards the meadows, hoping to have some peace and quiet.

As he arrived near the lake, he got off the horse, tying it off to a tree near a grassy area and heading over to the water. He removed his shoes and dipped his feet in the water, breathing in the air and smiling softly. He heard some footsteps and opened his eyes, smiling over to the figure heading towards him. "Hey, I'm Archer." He called out, not knowing who might be there.

Clara was in her own world as she wandered through the meadows, looking at the beauty of the scenery and allowing the breeze to hit her skin. It was calming to her. Therapeutic- really- as she let her feet guide her. After everything she’s had going on in her life lately, she felt the need to breathe- away from any princess duties or preparing for whatever it is her mother is preparing her for.   She began picking some flower through her walk before she also stumbled on the lake. Clara decided it would be a nice place to stop and rest a while before ultimately making her way back to her room. As she made her way closer, she spotted the horse tied up not to far from her- looking into the lake and seeing the figure in the water. He looked familiar, but Clara couldn’t make it out as she softly made her way closer to him. 

Archer. Okay- Clara thought that was a cool name. He seemed kind, and so the princess offered a soft smile to the boy, he couldn’t be much older than her. “Hi, Archer. I’m Clara.”

[archer-d]

"Hi." Archer called out, squinting to check who was walking over. "Clara? Hey! It's been so long." He said, thinking back to the last time he'd seen the girl, at Finley's last birthday before the breakup. Archer had always liked Clara, but she was Finley's friend, and his friends were off limits.

archer-d​:

Archer glanced up from his phone as Finley sat down in front of him, sighing quietly and putting his phone in his pocket. “Yes?” He asked. He wanted to be nice, but seeing the man who broke his heart sitting in front of him was just too much. “What do you want from me Finley? You broke up with me, remember?”

“I…” Finley stiffens in his seat, what did he want from Archer? A friendship? A conversation to remove some of the guilt he still had? No, he knew what he wanted but he was too afraid to say it out loud or even think it. “…I just want to talk I – this was a mistake, i’ll leave you alone.” The words ‘I miss you’ were dangerously close to leaving his lips and Finley needed to leave before he made an even bigger ass of himself. 

[archer-d]

"Talk about what?" Archer asked, his eyes still focused on Finley. He didn't want the boy to feel obligated to leave, but also couldn't bring himself to interact with his ex. He heard his name being called for the pizza and sighed, getting up from the table to get his pizza. "Goodbye Finley." He said, walking out and heading back to his dorm.

[fvntasmic]

archer-d​:

Archer simply nodded, turning away from Finley as he arrived to the cash and ordering his food. He didn’t know what Finley wanted, but he wasn’t eager to learn more. He felt his stomach drop as he realized that he had to wait for his pizza, meaning his ex was likely to keep chatting. He headed over to the waiting area and sat down, keeping his eyes focused on his bill.

Finley sighs, for what feels like the millionth time. After Archer orders, Finley does and quietly pays for his pizza. His heart sinks as he realizes they’ll have to wait for their food at the other counter, meaning more awkward conversation or worse – awkward silence. Finley slowly makes his way to the waiting area, he eyes the open seat across from Archer and debates sitting down. He knows if he does, Archer will either ignore him or move to a different seat. “So…” Finley starts, deciding to sit with him.

[fvntasmic]

archer-d​:

Archer eyed the boy up and down as he asked who he was here with. Finley hadn’t spoken a word to him since he asked for a break, and now he was asking if Archer was on a date. “Nope. Alone for now.” Hw replied. He had no doubt that Finley was probably picking something up for himself and his latest hookup, whoever that guy may be. He looked behind him, sighing quietly in relief as he noticed he was next up to order, meaning he’d be able to get away from the man who broke his heart sooner rather than later.

Finley hums, the small feeling of jealousy leaving his body. “Oh that’s nice – er, not nice that you’re alone but ..” He sighs, digging himself into a deep hole. “You know what I mean.” He mutters, following as Archer was next in line to order. Holding back a sigh of relief of his own. “I’m here alone as well.” Finley quickly adds, he’s not hinting at an invite to eat lunch together but he felt the need to reassure his ex he wasn’t seeing anyone.

Archer smiled at the girl standing near him, surprised she’d even noticed his horse. “Her name is Angie. She came with me from home, I couldn’t bear to leave her there. We’ve grown up together.” He said, closing his eyes for a moment and thinking back to the day Angie was born. He opened his eyes after a few moments and ushered for Ember to sit with him. “What brings you out here today? It’s pretty far from school.”

“oh, i was able to bring a few of my pets here with me too.” she said smirking as she thought of the spider who spooked one of the other students. she grinned but then sat beside him. “I just needed a place to relax.”

[archer-d]

Archer nodded in agreement as the girl settled down beside him. "This school is lovely, but it's definitely different from home. There's just so many people around all the time. I'm used to going out and riding every day." He said, eyes on the girl as they spoke.

“archer, huh?” the voice was casual but curious if she would  have made it seem so. her long red hair fell past her back only momentarily before tying it up in a pony tail and getting the messy strays to smoothen out. she had been so hot and figured the lake to be the perfect place to cool down, which she found the other male had the right idea. he must be a smart one. she thought to herself before tilting her head. “im ember but enough about that i want to know more about your friend.” she said looking over at the horse. 

“what’s their name?”

Archer’s brow raised at Finley’s awkwardness. The boy had been the reason for their breakup, and from what Archer had heard, Finley had had no problem moving on from him. “I’m starting Drearwood, as you can probably tell.” Archer said, checking behind him and moving backwards to follow the line forward. Only two people ahead of him, and then they could get out of this terribly uncomfortable situation. “What’s up with you?” He replied, keeping his eyes focused on anything but Finley.

Finley nods, he’d gathered that seeing as students usually came here after class. “I figured.” He replies, following as the line moved forward. He notices the two people of ahead of them as well; apart of him wanted out of this awkward situation, but the other part wanted to keep talking to Archer. “Nothing new to report.” He shrugs, Finley hadn’t been up to much since coming here. “…Are you here with someone or just by yourself?” He’s slightly afraid of the answer, hoping he’s just here by himself.

Archer had been carefully avoiding Finley ever since he’d arrived at Drearwood. Their last encounter had led to Archer’s first major heartbreak, and he did not want to have to deal with it again.

After class, Archer headed to Pizza Planet to get himself and his roommate some pizza. He stood in line, checking his phone to see what he’d been missing at home. He walked forward with the line, feeling the breeze from outside as the door opened and shut, signaling a new person was joining the line. He heard a familiar voice behind him and groaned slightly, realizing that his past was finally catching up with him. He put his phone away and looked over, an annoyed look on his face as he looked at the man behind him. “Hey Finley.” He said, making sure to call the boy by his full name and not by his old nickname.

“Archer, Hey..” Finley scratches the back of neck awkwardly. It was weird hearing his full name coming from him, he’d been so used to the nicknames that he almost winced. “So, uh, what’s up?” Awkward. This whole situation was awkward, Finley wasn’t mentally prepared for this encounter. It’d been almost two years since they last saw each other and yet their break up was still a fresh wound for Finley.

[ closed w. @archer-d​ ]

Finley pushed opened the doors of Pizza Planet and instantly inhaled the smell of pizza. His stomached growled, after a long day of classes he was starving. Someone had mentioned pizza during one of his classes, he was eavesdropping, and it’s been on his mind all day. So, once his final class was over he wasted no time in heading over. 

As he made his way towards the counter, Finley suddenly stopped. Freezing as he realized who was ahead of him ordering. Out of all the places his ex had to be, of course it had to be Pizza Planet. “Oh shit.” He winces, realizing he had said the curse out loud and not in his head.
