“Hey, it’s cold outside. At least wear a jacket.” -- edison

Ha. It’s cute how you look out for me, chéri.

I’m not going to be out long, though. Just needed a cigarette.

-Nice gestures the packet to Edison- Want one?

(X prev)

Hey- Hey, mon chéri, -Nice takes Edison’s hand in hers, her other cupping Edison’s face)

You are not the problem. You get too in your own head about things…You aren’t the bad things that have happened to you.

It sounds…Strange coming from someone else, I know that. I haven’t been in the same shoes as you, but…I’ve been in similar ones.

It takes time to heal, but you will heal. You’re strong, Edison.

-Edison leans into the touch without thinking, her eyes fluttering shut-

I… I hope so. I really hope so.

-She glances down at Nice’s hand as it holds hers, her gaze distant. Softly, she squeezes it-

I wish...I wish I’d been around more. I haven’t been here for you, lately and I regret that. I really do care for you, and it pains me to see you like this...Especially since I know you deserve better.

I think everyone who ends up here is fucked up, in one way or another. Some are just better at hiding it than others.

Take Acapulco or Crosby for example. One look at them and you can tell they’re insecure. Another look and you can tell they express that insecurity through anger and violence.

We are better at hiding things, but…That doesn’t mean that we should keep it in forever, tu vois?

Yeah. Yeah, uh…

-Edison sucks in a deep breath, then blows it out-

My dad died. That’s why I’ve been so on edge lately. I mean, besides everything else, obviously.

I— I don’t even know why I’m sad about it; he was terrible, but… he was my father. That has to mean something.

I’m..I’m sorry to hear that.

He treated you horribly and...Yes, he shouldn’t have done that, but it’s not...It’s not your fault that you’re upset about it. I would be, too, if that happened.

-Nice gestures the packet to Edison- Want one?

I- I’m supposed to be quitting…

Fuck it. I mean, fuck all of this, really, but fuck “it” specifically.

-she takes one from the packet and brings a metal finger up to the tip. a tiny lick of electricity shoots out and catches the cigarette aflame. she brings it to her lips and sighs-

-Nice smirks, and takes a draw of her own-

Rough day, I take it? That swine Acapulco isn’t giving you trouble again, is he?

It’s… dumb. Real dumb, actually. I ain’t gonna trouble y’all with it.

You’re not bothering me at all. Honestly, any gossip in this place is welcome, it gets incredibly boring here.

…You know you can talk to me, Edison.

No, I know, I just—

-edison pauses, then flicks some ash to the ground. she kicks at it thoughtfully-

What did you do? Before your… your job right now?

-Nice thinks for a moment-

...Not much, honestly. There weren’t many jobs that intrigued me as much as my current one.

I went to kickboxing classes when I was young. Travelled from place to place, got into some...questionable activities along the way, of course, but...Nothing gave me the control I wanted. Or, the money I wanted, for that matter.

Why do you ask?

Can I come see you? I would like to say some things in person. --xNice

I— yes! Yes. You’re welcome too, I mean.

*knocks on Edison’s door*

Eddy, you in there? I brought wine.

Oh! Yeah, uh, hi! Sorry ‘bout the mess, it’s been a busy couple of days— mind the pile there, it’s sharp— and I haven’t had the change to clean up.

Good lord, I must look a mess, I’m sorry.

You look as beautiful as always, Ed.

*starts to lean in for a hug, pauses, continues forward to loosely embrace Edison*

Shall we sit, drink? Like I said, I wanted to see you in person.

*pulls back and gently tucks Edison’s hair behind her ear*

-Edison leans into the touch, her eyes fluttering closed for just a moment. Then, they fly open, and she blinks a few times-

Right— sorry, right. I think I’ve got an opener somewhere in here— gimme a minute and I’ll find it.

Great.

*Nice sits on the bed, one foot neatly tucked under the other*

I did mean what I said, you know. You are very important to me.

-Edison nearly drops the opener in surprise-

I— uh— I didn’t know. That you meant it, I mean. That’s… uh…

I’m sorry, it’s just… been a week. And a half.

Edison - -

*Nice stands again, rests her hands on Edison's hands, stopping her *

I missed you dearly. If you would have me I'd love to try this again.

*Nice leans in, pauses so Edison can back off if she doesn't want the kiss*

Hey are you upset about Aca and I? – Wolfy

What— I— no, why would I be upset? I’m not. There’s no reason to be.

wolfkingsuggestions

I don’t know, you were in love with him and I just wanna make sure you’re okay

I wasn’t— you don’t— shut up. I’m not gonna have this conversation.

wolfkingsuggestions

Yes we are. I want to make sure you’re okay with this

acapulcosuggestions

Oh don’t kid yourself sweetheart, you’re heartbroken over me. What a fuckin’ shame.

How about you back off before I make you, Acapulco.

I decide to take one. ONE! MOTHERFUCKING LONG WEEKEND!!! and I have to cut it short because of you idiots. So let me get this straight, and don’t fucking interrupt!

Miami thinks shes gay and Wolfking gave her some sort of… talk. Edison is heart eyes for Nice and Nice is well… Nice. Acapulco is fucking drunk off his ass again and Crosby found some cupcake flavored vodka to give him. Cherno and Redmond are off on some beach sucking face, and finally we’ve got some new kids on the block.

Is there any other details you chucklefucks wanna add?!

Welcome back, Everest. It has been...wild. I am still unsure who half of the new members are.

uhhhh who the hell left flowers outside my door? @acapulcosuggestions is this y’all’s idea of a joke?

Small man had nothing to do with it.

After everything that had been going on recently I wanted to get you something…nice. Something as sweet and beautiful as you.

Oh— thank you. That’s… really kind of y’all. You’re a good friend, Nice.

Uh, yeah, yes, you’re welcome, of course. You deserve it.

I–What I mean is…

You are a good friend, too, Eddy. I really value you.

I… value you too.

And, I’m sorry. For getting in the way. For… me.

I am confused, why are you sorry? In the way of what?

Darling, there is absolutely no reason to apologize for anything. If anything, I should apologize for how long I was gone without contacting you.

No, I mean— that’s just it: I know what you want isn’t the same as what I want, and it’s my own damn fault for making this something it isn’t. I’m sorry, I’m gettin’ in the way with my— my emotions and my feelings and everything else! I— I don’t wanna be this thing you lead on because you feel sorry that I… that I… Well. Y’know.

-sighs-

It was a good game, Nice. But you don’t have to play anymore.

I don’t think you do know what I want. While I was gone I did nothing but think of you, thought how returning to you would be like…

It is difficult for me to do relationships–emotions–with the work that I do, you lose people so often, it is better to not get attached. I’ve loved and lost and I have been scared of what that means with you.

But you feel like…home. Comfort. Safety.

That does not scare me.

I am not playing a game with you, Eddy, I care deeply for you. If that is not something you desire, if my life and work is not compatible with you, than I understand and will back off.

No! No, no I understand about that, god knows my work almost gets me blown up half the damn time! I don’t— I don’t mind that things are dangerous. God knows life is. I— I just want…

You. You’re the first person who made me feel like I was somethin’ worth wanting. You make me happy and clear headed and when I’m with you, everything just seems brighter. I don’t want you to back off. I want you to… to…

To love me as much as I love you.

Tu es ma chérie pour toute la vie. Elle est mon âme, elle est mon cœur, elle est mon ange.

Je t'aime.

I— I don’t know what that means, but I hope it’s good? I’m sorry, I— I’m afraid I don’t speak French.

Is… is that good?
