“I MEAN      depends on the situation you’ve got going? are we talkin’ sushi in the shape of donuts? or donuts with sushi on top? because those are two very different things, my friend.” 

  ‘ I MEAN: SUSHI RICE set in a donut mold, stuffed with avocado or sea urchin or whatever you favor, topped with whatever sushi topping of your preference-----BUT the latter does sound interesting. ’

           ❝ so, what? you can do magic tricks? so show me one. ❞

   perhaps, goes something like this. ‘ blink twice and YOU’LL MISS IT. ’ he’s holding back on show and working with what he has----it’s a PHYSICS KIND of trick. completely LOGIC-BASED and certain to not surprise too much but holds entertainment value enough. 

[chosemore-a-blog]

   ‘ ok but-----SUSHI DONUTS. yes, or no? ’ a cough to cover an easy smile because when isn’t he, really.

   ‘ I’D SUGGEST, do it anyway. ’ his second nature is already inclined towards impulse, comment made off-hand and seemingly distracted. still, sensibility rears an attempt: ‘  ----but that just might defeat the purpose.’

     brows furrowed, arms crossed, weight shifted to the side. he is glaring at Henry for quite some time now, but it seems that the other did not even notice. the idiot has been singing out lungs to God knows what. Theo is unfamiliar to the songs he was singing, obviously showing his lack of knowledge on pop culture. he clears his throat, hoping to get his attention ; head hurting from all this noise. 

    IT COMES WITH THE TERRITORY----knowing henry cheng, being friends with henry cheng, consequently subjected to various whims. and, for one who so often considers before action? an act of spontaneity seems to shadow too closely. ‘ theo. theo,’ the name spills like a humored scolding, singsong; no further acknowledgment made of spotting annoyance than his accompaniment fading. ‘ theodore nott. we’ll expand your repertoire, yet! ’

                                              LIPS  TWITCH  UPWARDS,  THE beginnings  of  delicate  delight  over  nymphic  grace.  eyes  SPARKLE,  glinting  at  the  possibility  of  mischief,  of  setting  RESPONSIBILITY  aside  for  the  shortest  moment  to  allow  her  YOUTH  to  show  through.      ‘      perhaps.      ‘      melodic  TUNE  sways  through  the  word,  each  syllable  seeming  to  SHIMMER  for  a  moment  before  dissipating.      ‘      but  ONLY  if  there’s  a  promise  of  cupcakes  &&  coffee  at  that  cute  little  BAKERY  nearby  after.      ‘

   oh, he thinks, and there it is ----SUBTLE, this change in inflection, still sparkling, still sweet. a slight shift in features. something momentarily less contained and bright nonetheless. an urge to oblige runs strong, ‘ IT’S A PROMISE, then! cross my heart.’ fingers tracing the motion follows as smooth as routine. ‘ we’ll make a daytrip out of it, ’ he tells her with a quick grin and a quicker laugh, disregarding fact that initiating water fights and conversation over cupcakes and coffee would surely not encompass even all of daylight hours.

“when the voice in your head says you’re better off dead—” she doesn’t finish the sentence, but the thought has been completed more than once. the sky above them churns with the promise of a storm. hopefully big and thundering. the clouds get more eye contact than henry, which isn’t uncommon when hera speaks to people. she’s always found looking someone in the eye to be unsettling.

   attention diverts, silence shattered simply. an off-key hum, ‘ YOU’RE FUCKED,’ as offering but no intention of offense. he’d been close to sleep, he thinks. long days and longer nights on repeat tend to be motivation enough to trick a mind to rest. arms stretch overhead, a stiff neck shifting. 

( and, him? the contrary. his ears have learned to pick variations in tone, his thoughts fluent in the push and pull of muscle, the way shoulders stiffen and hands tell before consciousness catches. )

a rustling of blanket against grass hints at body moving / gaze casual before repositioning, back against floor. ‘ or---’ he is tempted to twist words into humor rather than comfort. it tickles throat. but this is hera: sweet and tough and contrary ---merely scratching the surface--- and momentarily open. a breath passes. ‘ you tell the head otherwise. be louder than the voice. shout for a bit,’ tone remaining in this how-are-you sort of manner. he does not expect an answer.

‘ what’s been getting you by?’ 

[chosemore-a-blog]

   ‘ ----or start a water balloon / water gun fight in a public park,’ an initial thought?  considered aloud. but he is already smiling wide and likely determined the thought as probably-not-a-good-idea-but-fun-regardless. ‘ you’d do that with me, wouldn’t you?’

it was not that he felt threatened by Henry in any way

@chosemore liked for a starter

     “ THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU can say that would convince me to get a tattoo. ”  his voice is firm but the crinkle at the corners of his eyes show he’s more amused than he lets on. long fingers brush dark hair aside, tucks the black strands behind his ear to expose his ear and gestures to it with purpose.  “ it was hard enough getting my ear pierced. and that was because i very much wanted to get it done. there’s just something about needles poking me that just- unsettling. ”

    ‘ ok, i understand that.’ a hmm slips lips in a semblance of thought and head turned, slight! because what is one’s seriousness in the presence of an act of being contrary? ( if he further insisted, henry would fall back on things beside humor-possible. ) ‘ -----but there’s something i could do to convince you otherwise, right,’ he states with inquiry hinting statement. ( tone digging to judge devotion. ) he hints with as much allusion in tone as to otherwise he can. 

[chosemore-a-blog]

  ‘ if you see a small, delightful! robotic bee with thin wire wings. colors bright and rather hard to miss-----give a shout will you? should be around here. ’ note: don’t program, don’t think a hide and seek function is ever effective even when threatened abduction by questionable beings.

yalitsquad challenge 1 // pt. 4 // favorite friendship → richard gansey iii + henry cheng

Doubly known. Triply known. Gansey wasn’t precisely sure how to cope with being so accurately pegged by a person who was, after all, only a recent acquaintance.

     “AH BUT YOU FORGET, my dear friend.  ‘ all’s fair in love and war. ’  and card games are definitely war. ”  if her smile wasn’t to be described as  ‘ shit eating ’  before, it definitely would be now. she laughs gleefully at his faux distress and wiggles her hips some more. kagome stops her victorious, silent gloating after a moment in order to think about her demands.  “ hm… my terms are…. two weeks of dishes, i get to dress you for a week, and…. and…. oh! and me being fanned with a palm leaf while you call me queen kagome. ”

   he has no doubt of fairness found in love and war, of fairness in poker and kagome higurashi. he has no doubt that she will enforce. nor of the fact that this spontaneous and cavity-inducing soul may just as well regret her terms half a day in. because, if anything? henry cheng pretends not to understand the term half-assed on the best of days and oftentimes execution finding more difficult than thought intended. for a second, henry doesn’t answer. and, then: with a smile previously stifled encompassing features, ‘ oh, my dearest QUEEN KAGOME.’ a flourished, improvised bow within his seat. ‘ dishes are done. i am currently missing a leaf large enough but------would you like to start with what i go to bed with?’
