“And isn’t it also some kind of rule when working in communications?” Tristan shot back, “To be the alert one. So really, we’re all meant to be.”

“I would describe it as alert lite. I don’t have to be as alert as you would have to be, besides, most of the time you got it under control. I don’t need to be so alert when you’re already so good at doing it.” Aspen responded, although even if she had known he had it under control in any fight, she would still be watching. Aspen wouldn’t let him go in it dark.

“Well for me it used to be being able to wear long pants without people asking me why I was wearing them because it was too hot for them,” Jack replied with a laugh, “But now I just like the change. As much as I like the sunshine, I’m much more an indoor person really and the cold gives me an excuse.”

“Ugh, that would have been the worst. People are so nosey, I hope you told them exactly where they can shove it. Regardless of why, people shouldn’t be concerning themselves with why other people are doing anything.” She said, “I hate to be that basic person, but I cannot wait for all the pumpkin spice flavoured coffees. Easily the best part about fall.”

“Okay but I have an entire layout and briefing to do for tomorrow because my clients and bosses set unreasonable deadlines,” Eliana began, sifting through some papers, “How important is whatever you were about to say to me?”

Aspen stopped talking as soon as Eliana had started, closing her mouth in response. “Uh,” She hummed, “Not that important.” Aspen admitted, “Do you... want some help?”

Jack smiled, “Thanks but I can handle people,” She said, “They might be on the receiving end of my temper but I can handle it,” She paused, “This has gotta be one of the last warm days of the year right? I mean it’s nearly fall.”

“Good, if they try to treat you in any horrible way they deserve every bit of the temper. I’ll be right there if you need it.” Aspen offered. “It is, isn’t it? I’m so excited for fall. I love summer but there’s just something about fall that’s so nice.”

tristanxconnolly​:

“Mandatory? Why would it be mandatory?”

“Isn’t it some kind of hero rule? You know when you’re fighting you have to always be alert and on top of everything?”

dawnsfcrds​:

“I never have ill intentions– I swear,” Dawn began. “But sometimes I don’t know my own strength… you know what I mean? And then I end up throwing harder or further than I intended to.”

Aspen narrowed her eyes slightly at Dawn, “Alright, I’ll trust you.” She spoke with suspicion. “I get what you mean. So long as you don’t make me run all the way across the field, you can throw it as far as your strength allows.”

gabrielxadams​:

As she held out the instructions to him, he looked them over as his brow progressively began to furrow. “Shit– what the hell is all this? Where did they even find that part?” Gabe asked as he pointed to things on the page. “We should’ve recruited a kid to help. Those little bastards are fluent in pictures.”

She really hoped that by some miracle Gabriel would be able to instantly understand the instructions the second he read it. “Right? Is this tent some kind of trick? Or test? To see how long until we break?”

maxswatscn​:

“Oh hey doughnuts are a good idea,” he agreed with a nod. “Do you think we could write a letter to someone? Demand more variety in the treats given during parties like these?”

“I never thought about doing that! Would you cosign my letter?” She asked, “What else could we demand?”

kiaraxgrey​:

“I love you and all, but if I miss it’ll be a pure accident,” Kiara insisted. “I will not throw a game– sorry. I just am physically enable to do that,” she admitted. “But maybe you’ll get lucky, maybe I’ll miss one or two,” she shrugged.

“A happy accident,” She clarified, “Don’t you want one of those? I know I would.” Aspen said with a laugh, although she wouldn’t be laughing much if she lost.

“I’ll be honest… didn’t realize there was a kind,” Dallas replied. “I always just thought it’s any sort of large pieces of wood that aren’t wet.”

“I mean, there isn’t really but twigs are mostly used to start the fire.” Aspen explained, “That’s why I’m thinking we should be aiming more for the bigger pieces.” 

[aspenconnolly]

marziadamercn​:

“Maybe playing against somebody as crazy as me will make you even better?” she hypothesized with a shrug. “Then you could totally surprise your siblings and beat them next time you play.”

Aspen paused, gasping as she pointed at Mariza, “That, is a great idea.  Have I ever told you that I love the way your brain works?” 

[aspenconnolly]

winnievaughn​:

At Aspen’s question, Winnie began to sift through what was available. “I think these ones?” she held one up for the other to see. “Ah, I see. Shame he’s not here to help us out, huh?” Winnie chuckled softly.

Aspen focused her eyes on the screw, trying to compare it to the picture on the instructions. “I think that’s it. It’s the spiral one?” She asked, “Right? We would already be relaxing in our tent.”

ardenconnolly​:

“That sounds like quite a dangerous game.”

“But tell me it wouldn’t be fun, and effective! Are you down?” 

[aspenconnolly]

sloanescarlisle​:

“Yeah, I pick not eating it so I can survive over missing out,” she answered.

“Are you sure you don’t want to take the risk? Kidding, kidding. Do you like white chocolate? Maybe we could try that for you instead!” 

[aspenconnolly]

ardenconnolly​:

“Absolutely not. That reminds me of Tris, and I don’t want to date my sibling.”

“Oh my god, I didn’t even think about that- gross.” Aspen said while making a face. “How about we just close our eyes and point? Whoever you land on, you have to go talk to them.” 

[aspenconnolly]

ardenconnolly​: 

This is the perfect chance. Arden just had to tell Aspen that she liked girls. She wanted to tell her, but then she changed her mind last minute and replied with, “I don’t think I really have a type.”

Aspen make a ‘tsk’ sound as she looked around the room, “How do you feel about the lumberjack style?” 

[aspenconnolly]

ardenconnolly​:

“Please, don’t be dramatic,” Arden replied. “I’m sure it’s nothing, I’m sure it won’t even bother us.”

“Are you going to be this confident before it kills us?” Aspen asked, “I can see it moving!”
