arianna king. 24. photographer. Who cares about pretty? I'm going for noticeable.

Wow, I would have watched these movies sooner if I knew I could have someone to keep me awake for all the good parts. I don’t blame you. I can’t wait to be out of here. Photography, huh? Sounds like a better major than I signed up for. What kind of photography do you do? No fucking way. None of the board positions pay, and even if they did, you couldn’t pay me enough to be babysitter for the guys here. No, I’m the Rush Chair so I’m in charge of making sure we don’t get guys who are into salmon colored shorts trying to become pledges every fall. Oh, yeah? Sounds like you have your hands full.

You just needed me in your life to truly enjoy movies in the way they were supposed to be shown. Where do you think you’ll go after here? I couldn’t be bothered with any other bullshit major. I don’t rally care if I don’t make a lot of money, I like snapping photos and thats good enough for me. It’s also a good excuse to be around really pretty people. I do a little bit of everything, but I like doing portraits the most. I have been doing a lot of engagement photos lately, though. They’re fun but also cringey as hell. That sounds way color, anyways. Do you get to kick them out, too? Mhm, I like having my hands full.

sigmasmythe:

Sounds like a plan. You can make sure I don’t fall asleep whenever he’s offscreen. Are you out of school already? This should be my senior year, but I took a gap year after high school to travel so now I’m paying for it. I actually banned salmon-colored shorts from my fraternity. I told them we weren’t going to be that house and they took it better than I expected them to. It really has; I can’t imagine why anyone would ever want to date a man unless he was rich.

You can fall asleep, I don’t care, I’ll just shake you awake to make sure you don’t miss his insane abs. Yeah, once I graduated from college, I was done with school. I’m not trying to torture myself with grad school or whatever. Photographers don’t really need it anyways, and that’s all I want to do right now. Damn, you’re really paying for it but at least you only have a year left. Salmon colored shirts? That’s fucking disgusting. Just wear pink. Are you the president of the frat or something? So true. It’s why I usually go for women, but not all men here are terrible. I’ve got my eye on a couple of people, of both sexes.

samuelcarters:

Do I look like I just call anybody queen? Seriously? Are we supposed to act like you don’t own a mirror and know exactly what you look like? Yeah, I have no doubt you’ll only tell the truth. I wouldn’t hate a compliment here or there, but y’know. Truth and all that. What’s a piano-playing kind of guy supposed to be like, huh? And here I thought I was the next John Legend. They sort of ruined the guitar for me. Now I can’t bring it anywhere without looking like some stereotype from a John Green story. Nah, not a sandal dude. No one needs to see my feet.

You don’t seem like the type, but people can fool you. A sweet face, and nice abs, can still hurt like no other. Oh, I know what I look like and I’m damn proud of it but I still like hearing it. Well, you’re in luck because I just gave you two a moment ago. I don’t know, the only piano players I know in real life, not celebrities, are white and whiny and definitely shouldn’t be playing during open mics. Aw, you poor thing. Your guitar playing can be a secret with me. Please tell me you clean them, at the very least.

[ariannakiing]

camrynruss:

Well, thank you, but I couldn’t ask you to go back to your days of engagement photos just for me. Honestly, the idea of being engaged isn’t even on my radar right now, so I don’t know if I can even think about that for longer than a second. I’d do it. I love organizing everything I’ll need and making it fit into one suitcase. Maybe it’s because I haven’t traveled anywhere in a while and I’m just looking for an excuse to pack and leave. Where did you go? You took a bartending class? I may have to take you up on that offer, and hopefully learn a thing or two while I’m at it.

I don’t know where I’m going to be whenever you’re in the mood to walk down an aisle, but I’m sure I’d be more than happy to break out my camera and take a few photos of you. Good. You have plenty of time to think about settling down. Really? Wow. The organization skills I have are in a red room and even then it’s still a mess. I’ll make sure to give you a call next time I need to pack. I went to Barcelona on a whim with some friends right after college. I did. I don’t know what I was thinking, but it was actually kind of fun. I can teach you a thing or two, for sure.

[ariannakiing]

sigmasmythe:

That was exactly what I was asking. Maybe I’ll give it a try. For him. If anything, it’ll be something pretty to look at while I’m stuck studying or doing homework. Oh, trust me, I know. I share a house with a dozen of them and while most of them can clean up nice, there are guys who show up to our parties doing the bare minimum. Some of the women on this campus really need to up their standards if we ever want straight men to evolve.

I knew it. If you ever want to watch them together, I wouldn’t mind seeing them for a second time. For the abs. Damn, I’m so sorry you still have homework to do. You’re way more put together than most guys are, but I know what the typical frat boy looks like and they think pulling on an Easter colored polo is enough to look good. Newsflash, it’s not and never was. Society has done women so dirty, for a lot of reasons but especially for what a boyfriend or husband should look like. Tragic, tragic.

[ariannakiing]

samuelcarters:

Will do, queen. You make it easy, so expect plenty of compliments. Alright, alright, that’s fair. I’ll let you be the judge of my cooking skills. I just prefer piano and most of my songs pair up better with that style of music. Acoustic. The same kind that annoying college dudes play in the middle of campus. 

You better not be throwing a line around with that queen shit. But, I’m not hating it. I make it easy? Well, then, you can stay. You have my word that I’ll tell the truth, wouldn’t want to make your mama disappointed. That’s nice, just wouldn't peg you for the piano playing kind of guy. Well, thank God you said it because I definitely was going to. At least tell me you don’t wear sandals and open flannel shirts.

[only1-deactivated20210531]

As long as I’m the big spoon.

[ariannakiing]

samuelcarters:

Like I said, I’m just here to tell the truth. I’m no good at lying. Never, so you know it’s going to be a good meal. I sing and play piano. I know guitar too, but I haven’t picked one up in a while.

Please keep on your telling your truths if they involve complimenting me. I mean, always tell me the truth, but especially then. Promises and talk are cheap, I’ll believe it when I taste it. Oh, nice. Why not? Electric or acoustic?

[ariannakiing]

sigmasmythe:

Are the first ones any good? He looked a little too Ken doll for my liking, but if he’s shirtless or covered in sweat, I’ll give them a try. Absolutely. I’ve seen a few straight guys with a good ass, but gay men know how important it is to do their squats. 

Chris Hemsworth looked good in them, if that’s what you’re asking. His best look was probably the second Thor movie. Unf. He’s shirtless in every movie he does, so you’re in luck. Speaking of luck. Too many straight guys don’t believe in looking like a human being that actually baths himself.

[ariannakiing]

jessmumus:

I think all of us are friends with someone we consider to be an asshole, but mostly because they’re not always an asshole. It’s whenever they start being an asshole that you start questioning everything. So you don’t ever plan on having kids?

Yeah, exactly. As long as they’re not horrible 24/7, we all got out problems, I’m not here to judge. I’m not about being around people who are always nicey-nice and just tell you what you want to hear. I’ll take an honest asshole over that any day. Hell no. At least not in my 20′s.

jessmumus:

I guess shitty people are everywhere. It’s kind of amazing how easy you can find them, or I guess maybe they find you. You never know, things sort of change once you find out you’re going to be a mom.

They definitely are. I’m usually good at figuring out who is shitty before I start hanging out with them, but sometimes people hide shit from you and then you realize you’re friends with an asshole. I keep half of those friendships though, so I don’t know what that says about me. Ugh, no thank you. Props to you.

samuelcarters:

Oh, it will be. My mom would be so disappointed if I brought someone beautiful over to my house and didn’t serve them the best meal they’ve ever had. No, no, no. Definitely not. I’m more of a music guy.

Wow, beautiful, huh? You just scored yourself a whole lot of brownie points there. Absolutely. can’t be disappointing your mom. Really? Do you sing or play an instrument or both?

[ariannakiing]

camrynruss:

It definitely sounds real to me. If I ever get engaged, I’ll definitely give you a call, but I doubt you’ll still be doing engagement photos by the time that happens. Oh, I love packing. It’s unpacking I have an issue with. It’s no fun when you’re done doing all of the traveling part. New York would be perfect. I’d really like to get out of the country too, but I’m going to have to serve a lot more steaks before that happens. My favorite drinks are the ones that pack a punch without tasting like it. Definitely anything with fruit.

God, I hope I’m not doing engagement photos by then. But you would be such a gorgeous bride, I wouldn’t be able to say no. You love packing? I know who I’m calling when I ever need to pack again. That’s true though, unpacking is even worse. I’ve only been out of the country once and it was fun, I would recommend it. Oh, I can do that. I took a bartending class for a hot minute, so I can make something yummy for you.

[ariannakiing]

jessmumus:

That would have been great. I didn’t have a ton of friends growing up and got involved with too many shitty people because of it. Being a mom isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be, but it’s also kind of awesome.

I got involved with too many shitty people because I had a lot of friends. There’s really no way of getting away from them. Motherhood sounds terrifying. I do not have the attention span to take care of a kid.

[ariannakiing]

samuelcarters:

Damn, I hope my cooking is worth it then. I don’t really know either. It’s something I’m still working on. I think it’s all about who you know, and I don’t know the right people so it’s a lost cause for me.

I hope it is too. If I’m going to die, it better be the best meal I’ve ever had. Wait, do you really want to be in the movie business?
