“I’ve been over the summer weather since day one. the only NICE thing about summer was the activities and events that went on around the city, but otherwise ? count me out. pumpkin flavored items are much more exciting anyway. don’t you think ?”
‘ sounds like florida is a great place for you. have fun sipping those lattes in the seventy degree weather. ’
“ i was trying to order one cappuccino and she asked if i said seven, and i - uh, i didn’t want to correct her .. so now i have seven cups of coffee. ” jamie said, avoiding the other person’s eyes and softly shrugging their shoulders. “ do you want one ? ”
‘ this thing got any baileys in it ? ’ the brunette asks, accepting the drink as graciously as he can. a once over of the girl in front of him supplies him with the answer he isn’t looking for. ‘ you know what, never mind, ’ his own burnished flask is pulled out of his pocket, the lid flipped off with much more skill than he should be proud of, one delicious sip passing his lips before d u m p i n g a steady pour into his coffee. ‘ do you ... uh want a hit ? ’
‘‘– are you staring at me because of that breathtaking five dollars shirt i’ve bought at the new tourist stand located a few blocks down the street?’’ he pointed them the direction with a small smile tugging at his lips. ‘’looks like i’’m a pound of cocaine away from starting my own cartel huh,’‘
‘ looks to me like you’re a couple hundred kilos short of a cartel, ’ cool hues take less than a breath to scan the cheap cotton adorning the other’s shoulders, ‘ besides, print like that you’re more soccer dad than scarface. just need a fanny pack and some socks with those sandals and you could’ve sold me. ’
hello pals! m here again bc i have no self control. i’m the actual worst at intros so bear with me on this i’m going to do my best. i ‘spose the most important thing you know is that 90% of the niall gifs that exist in the world aren’t going to apply to colt cause he is nothing even close to sunshine and rainbows. but i’ll put a little bit about him under the cut and you can hit me up for plots or just give this a like and i’ll slide into your dms. triggers will be tagged.
( niall horan, cismale, he/him ) you know, i saw colton davis coming out of apartment #122 today, the twenty-four year old seemed to be a little sardonic & volatile when he first moved in, but really he’s steadfast & modest. he’s been in panama city for six months, but no one knows that they’re here because [REDACTED].
okay so to start, like i said colt is not the happiest person in the world. he’s actually pretty much a worthless excuse for a human being. at least he thinks so.
abuse tw/drug use tw: his mom is a drug addicted prostitute and he doesn’t know who his father is. boy legit has three middle names cause those were his three possible fathers. momma kind of lost her looks early on tho bc don’t do drugs, kids. but anyway she started selling him off bc people pay a pretty penny for shit like that and she needed more money.
he pretty much raised himself from the time he was 7 or 8. he’d go days at a time without seeing her so when he was 11 and she straight up ghosted for a week he wasn’t alarmed. just kept on keepin on like a good little soldier except one of the neighbors noticed he was the only one living in that pos apartment and called child services.
bounced around in foster care from place to place. learned to fight pretty early on bc that’s how you gotta survive shutfffff like that. wasn’t the strongest but was quick af.
has a bad habit of picking fights he doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell at winning.
so. much. sarcasm. omg.
he’s developing a legitimate alcohol problem at this point. smokes like a chimney. menthols (yack)
is not his own no 1 fan. actually, pretty much…….highkey hates himself. i cry.
the only thing that he really likes is art. he’s one heck of a talented artist but hah, no one really knows that cause he doesn’t show anyone his shit bc that self esteem getting him again.
works like the most random jobs to pay the bills from walking dogs to drawing caricatures in the park and w/e,
self depreciating humor is probably his greatest strength tbh.
p much hates everyone
originally from chicago. probably walks around looking like a lobster all the time bc boy pale af.
brunette niall bc UNF my love.
has only been in love once in his whole life and that just didn’t end so well but no need to drag the party down talking about that yikes.
but i guess what i’m looking for plotwise is everything? like tbh he’s a snarky pos so he’s probably going to rub some people the wrong way but it’d be cool to get him a roommate or two bc lbr, single living ain’t cheap. i’ll just switch up his apartment to match yours if you’re interested find him on craig’s list.
‘never had the slightest concern, really. i’ve learned all i know from franco, you’ll have to thank him the next time you fail at pretending like you hate hanging with the kids. i’m not much of a good judgement, the most fatherly thing i’ve ever experienced is being given a beer for my thirteenth. learned that sharing is, in fact, caring that day. none pizza, left beef– got it. that’s an eight-year-old level pickup, i’m not quite there yet.’
‘ was a little bit. you brooks boys are dated, me ? i’m going to live for fucking ever. yeah, i’ll PRETEND when that little one, i r e f u s e to learn her name, pukes up her cheerios on me. there’s only one person who is allowed to puke on colton joe jeffrey scott davis and you’re L O O K I N G at him. don’t know about you but that sounds like a dream come true. don’t even remember my thirteenth to be honest, they all kind of blend in with every other shitty day. do you need to write this down ? i’ve got a sharpie, could ink it on you for five to seven days. and it’s really sad for you that i’m really only affected by double digits.. ’
“To top it all off, I was like 14. A 14 year old in mall jail. I was a tough kid growing up. I stole a Twix bar from a school fundraiser that same year. I guess you could say I had a year of rebellious turmoil.”
‘ would have been better if you were like seven. fourteen is such a typical age for mall jail, just ask paul blart. ‘
‘i can’t, all the smog has wrecked my lungs– give me mouth to mouth? could’ve done, yeah, not sure how well he would’ve handled the vulgarity, though. maybe he got one for himself, too, mrs. claus doesn’t have to know. should i start calling you dad, then? okay, all cheese, no veggies. anything else, princess?’
‘ only the good die young, you’re safe. i mean, how could i resist? you have the pickup lines of a seven year old and i’m just smitten. i think threatening to waterboard him with hot jell-o mix was a nice touch. dunno, is that something dads do? i’ve never had the pleasure of finding out. bacon. all of the fucking bacon. can’t believe you passed up the opportunity to offer me an extra large sausage, but then i guess we both know that might be a bit of an exaggeration. ’
‘at least i’ll be focusing on SOMETHING – beating add is a feat, i’ll have you know. who knew that i all i needed in my life was the real life version of a pornhub twink? if you say chicago style i’ll actually burn your flat down, no hesitation. choose wisely.’
‘ use those breathing exercises we talked about. FOCUS on one thing at a time. it’ll be okay little buddy. maybe santa finally got those letters you’ve been sending him; christmas in almost july. i’m going to b o x your fucking ears, maybe knock them back into working shape. i said thin and crispy. not even ten seconds ago. ’
“ okay okay. i know that was pretty lame but i think i have more better jokes than my prof. but otherwise that, got any jokes you seem like you’d be funny ”
‘ i’ve actually made it my life’s mission to be the least funny person in chicago. sorry to disappoint. ’
“There’s a health department jail? I was put in mall cop jail, once. It was stupid, I was on a mall scavenger hunt and they said that wasn’t allowed. So they took me to mall jail. They called me Little Rose in there. Sweet but deadly, you know?”
‘ can’t say i’m interested in finding out. a scavenger hunt ? that’s so metal. please tell me more about all of the scandalous shit you’ve pulled. ’
‘i’m much better at watching your lips than actually hearing what you’re saying, i will admit. – mm, shit, right there, i’ve just done it again. what was that you said about dinner?’
‘ i can’t say i’ve ever felt so objectified. might have to learn sign language just to get through to you but then all you’re going to focus on is my h a n d s . i said you should get me a pizza. thin and crispy. none of that fucking pineapple shit. actually no fruits or vegetables at all. ain’t no fuckin’ rabbit. ’
