Just you struck Roxie as amusing, since she didn’t know the boy who had answered the door, and she wondered who else he might have been expecting. His offer was a pleasant surprise and Roxie perked up in the face of it. “Oh, thank you,” she said, grinning brightly. “Yeah, if you don’t mind, that would be great. I really just need to finish my hair and charge my phone. You’re sure it’s not a bother?”

connor smiled at the girl, and opened the door. he gestured for her to come in. ❝ not a bother at all. i remember my first week in a new apartment – everything that could go wrong, went wrong. ❞ he shut the door behind them. ❝ i’m connor, by the way. ❞

If there was one thing Sophie had an abundance in, it would be books. She had heaps of them and her dear grandmother was to blame for that. It was one cold afternoon that she decided it was time to give most of the books gathering dust away. Sophie piled the ones she was fine parting with neatly in a shoebox and walked off into the lobby where she placed them next to the mailbox. She then grabbed the piece of paper that she left on the box and patted her pockets for a pen. When she noticed that she had no pen, she quietly stood up and looked around, the feeling of anxiousness suddenly washing over her. “Hi!.. um..” Her voice cracked a little as she walked towards them. “Do you, uh.. h-have a pen I can borrow?”

pulling into the garage, connor parked his car and turned off his engine. he walked into the lobby and was surprised to see a familiar face. sophie. she had lived in marlborough when he’d first moved in, but left soon after. he guessed they had been friends, but hadn’t been close by any means. ❝ actually, yeah, i do, ❞ he answered her, pulling a pen out of his pocket. ❝ haven’t see you in a while, sophie. ❞

“—Well, it’s done. I’m no longer the hottest blonde in the building.”

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ were you ever really the hottest blonde? i mean, some of the girls here are just, wow. ❞

“If you did go to the mall, it would have been the equivalent.”

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ exactly my point. ❞

“What if I asked if I could pass on that lesson because I don’t feel that unfulfilled..”

“really? i used to like it. too much of a good thing, i guess,” he shrugged in response as they left the stairwell and arrived on connor’s floor. “oh, well, i mean.. that is something exciting. i don’t think i’ve told you yet, but i’m glad you’re back, and everything.” 

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ i’m glad to be back, man, ❞ connor said, unlocking his door and opening it for caspar. ❝ we should catch up. ❞

WHERE HE CURRENTLY SAT remained a mystery to Braden– his legs curled up into his chest, leaning against the wall of a random, winding hallway of the complex. His focus, instead, lay within the realms of the crossword puzzle that sat in his lap, pencil tapping rhythmically against the page. “Six letter word for sci-fi weapon?” His head tilts upwards towards the sound of nearby footsteps, curls tumbling just at his eyebrows as he meets the other person’s gaze. Normally, it’d be the sort of riddle that Braden could solve with ease– but his head was currently clouded with a twist of muffled memories and half-formed thoughts. He felt off today– but why that was, he had no clue.

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ sci-fi weapon? hm, that’s a tough one. do you know any of the letters in it? ❞

HE ISN’T LOOKING WHERE HE’S GOING. it’s a bad habit of his, but today he’s especially distracted by what he’s clutching in his hand. he’s just retrieved his mail from the boxes downstairs in the apartment complex, and he has quite the stack of redirected letters now that he finally has a permanent address for them all to be sent to. he’s leafing through them as he walks back along the hall, and he’s so preoccupied he doesn’t hear them approaching as he rounds the corner. within seconds, paper is scattering to the floor as he drops it in favour of catching the other by the arm to steady them, an apology written across his features along with a good dose of shock. “ fuck – i’m so sorry, i didn’t see you there !  are you alright ?  did i hurt ya any ? ”

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ no, no, i’m fine, don’t worry about me. ❞

[whispershqs]

“that sounds like a terrible idea. it’s not even december yet.” 

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ how could it be a terrible idea? christmas is the best. ❞

Roxie shivered at the mention of the holiday and laughed. “I haven’t gone Black Friday shopping in years. It’s so scary. I saw a woman rip a toy out of a little kid’s hands once. I guess that begs the question of why someone would bring a little kid Black Friday shopping.”

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ i wouldn’t. when i have a kid, they will never be subjected to black friday. ❞

Roxie was just about finished blow-drying her hair, maybe ten minutes from crawling into bed, when the power went out. She nearly burst into a hysterical fit of frustration and just barely managed to contain herself. It was with a heaving sigh and a lot of muttered grumbling under her breath that she stepped out into the hallway and found a door where she heard noise coming from inside. Knocking very lightly, she chewed her lower lip as she waited for an answer, and when it opened, she grinned sheepishly. “Hi, I’m really sorry to bother you so late. My power went out, I was just seeing if it was me or the whole building. This would happen my first week here.”

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ it’s just you, do you want to come in? ❞ connor said, taking pity on the girl who was obviously in a sticky situation. ❝ if you need to use power for anything, you can use mine, and stuff. ❞

[chndlers-deactivated20170817]

“i’m glad it’s appropriate now. i get why people don’t want to skip thanksgiving, but there’s no thanksgiving music, so what do you expect me to do? i like getting festive this time of year and if one holiday won’t let me, i’ll go right onto the next!”

[connorhuron-blog]

❝ right? thanksgiving is great and all, like i’m all for stuffing my face with turkey, but christmas is the best! ❞

“Fair enough. I thought you literally went to the mall and tried to go shopping there. That would have been hell.”
