“Wait, that’s actually such a good point. So many of the ‘classics’ have like, the most boring casts. If I wanted to watch a bunch of old white men talk for two hours I’d just turn on the news,” Jenny laughed. “The next time someone tries to convince to watch something lame like… I don’t know, The Godfather, that’s totally gonna be my excuse.” 

“It’s just so ridiculous to regard these movies classics when they really only represent the experience of such a small amount of people” Emma laughed along with the girl. “I’m glad we’re on the same page.”

“Yes! See? You understand.” Jenny laughed, clapping her hands with excitement. “I’m so sick of people telling me to watch like, The Godfather and Jaws. You’re not better because you like boring movies with exclusively male casts, you know?” 

“People just don’t understand that there’s loads more needed to enjoy a movie” Emma explained smiling. “Different people like different things and that is okay. I just happen to like a more inclusive cast and good plot, ya know?”

“we should definitely set up a study date, then,” willow said, sighing with relief when they entered the warm, quiet library. “just…after we stuff our faces with ice-cream,” she giggled, grabbing emma’s hand and drifting over to the pop-up ice-cream shop set up in the middle of the library.

“Sounds good to me” the brunette followed her friend’s lead to the makeshift ice cream shop. There she piled all of her favorites into her bowl. “Did you try the caramel delight flavor” she said spooning some into her mouth. “It is heavenly.”

  “oooh, rocky road would be amazing right now,” willow giggled, a spring suddenly in her step at the prospect of a treat and a good time with a friend. where before she had been filled with anxiety, she now felt a sense of calm she often felt around emma. the other girl had a motivating and positive effect on willow and she was glad to have found a friend on campus, and at work, that she seemed to vibe with. “i might check out some books if thats okay. i have an anatomy assignment coming up that i need to start preparing for.”

“OooH that reminds me I have to check out a few law books while I’m there. Big test coming up” Emma said, glad she had someone that, knowingly or not, helped keep her on track. “Maybe they’ll have a study room available” she plotted as they finally approached the main entrance to the library. Opening the doors to the library Emma was met with a whiff of ice cream and old books, an oddly satisfying combination.

“Nah.. we just don’t tell the big man.” Eric replied with a grin as he placed the order, knowing well that the girl needed some substance in her stomach to make it through the night. He’d been in her position more times than he could count and he needed to at least try and help her out. “Yeah no worries, I got you.” he grinned and replenished her water before crossing his arms over his chest. “How’s the summer treatin’ ya?”

“Oh the usual” Emma said trying to slyly take a drink of her water. “And by usual I don’t mean the party filled nights and days that my fellow peers have. I mean working double shifts and two jobs to afford the necessities in life.” She states this plainly as she began to drink more water. She had no idea why she was releasing her inner angst to a stranger. Emma’s logic granted it to two things; the tequila and the bartender effect. Suddenly feeling shy, Emma curtailed the conversation. “What about you? I’m sure you’re tired of hearing about other people’s lives all the time...How’s your life? What’s your story?”

“that sounds incredible!” willow said, smiling and nodding along with emma’s idea. it sounded like a great time, if she was being honest, and she needed to be somewhere quiet, with someone she at least trusted a little bit. “let’s go!”

“Awesome” Emma said walking in the direction of the library. It was a calm night, a slight breeze lifting the hair off of her neck. “I hope they have rocky road” Emma wondered aloud. Of course it was free ice cream so she couldn’t really complain at the flavor choice. The library began getting closer as they walked. “Is there anything you need at the library?” Emma asked looking to the red head.

“what’s the best coffee drink on the menu? i think i need twenty expresso shots to keep me awake!” phoenix exclaimed, twirling a pen between his thumb and index finger as he sat at the nearest table and continued with his work. “i really want to finish this before i head back to my place, ‘cause i know the second i get through that door i’ll just be thinking about my pillow.”

[emmakastleton-blog]

Emma had picked up this shift from a coworker because she desperately needed the money, not because she necessarily enjoyed making coffee for other people. The guy sitting by himself in a back corner looked in need of a coffee as he scribbled away on a notepad. “Personally I prefer sugar over caffeine so I’d go for the caramel latte or macchiato, but you can add espresso to any drink.” Emma took out her server pad, pen poised. She couldn’t help but glance at what the stranger was working on. “What is it?” Emma asked, genuinely curious, she lifted her eyes from her server pad to look at the boy with curly hair.

willowwinters:

breathing out a sigh of relief at the familiar voice, willow turned to smile at emma. she hadn’t known the other girl for a long time, but they had hit it off right away. working and studying together almost always formed bonds, even if those bonds mostly consisted of study-and-coffee sessions, and complaining about rude customers. “hi,” she said, all smiles as her heart rate returned to normal, “the sorority house is having a party and it’s all a bit crazy. just needed some air and some silence. that early shift tomorrow might actually kill me,” she laughed.

“That’s for sure going to be rough” Emma said glancing at her cell phone for the time. It was later than she had expected. “You house’s parties sure do run late” she actually couldn’t remember the last party her sorority had, which was probably bad coming from the president. Emma took another look at Willow, how was obviously now relaxing, leaning into her hip. “Since we’re both out do you want to go to the library? I think they have free ice cream” she suggested, remembering a flyer she saw earlier that day on campus. “It’ll be quiet there, you can wait out the party, and there’s ice cream. Win, win, win” Emma counted out the reasons on her fingers. It all sounded like a good argument to her, a further example as to why she would make a good lawyer. She glanced at her phone before returning her gaze to Willow’s face, waiting for a response.

「 ✩ * º open starter 」— trigger warnings: abuse mention.

being in the sorority house was one of the most uncomfortable things willow had ever experienced in her life. as a child, her home was often filled with raised voices, and though the girls were yelling out of joy rather than anger, hearing voices so loud so late at night was enough to have willow back in the mindset of a scared little girl. she decided that taking a walk, even in the late hours of the night, was the best way to clear her head. bundled up in hoodies and scarves and a beanie, she was minding her own business when she heard someone walking behind her. though her heart was hammering in her chest out of pure anxiety, she found the courage to speak up. “i can hear you. if you’re trying to scare me, it’s not working,” she lied.

Emma was on her nightly jog when she saw a familiar figure ahead of her. For someone so small, Willow sure could walk fast. Emma had to keep jogging to try to catch up with the redhead. She didn’t even realize how following Willow would appear. “Sorry, didn’t mean to sneak up on you” Emma said trying to ease the tension in the girl’s voice. Emma was panting from jogging so much, that she was glad they both slowed to a stop. “What are you doing out so late? Don’t you have an early shift tomorrow?” She cocked her head to the side, peering at Willow.

“wait, bro, so I was thinking about this and like– do you think fish can see water?  Cause like we can’t see air and water is like the air for them.  So what if they can’t see it.  But what if they can see air– holy shit, I wonder what it looks like?  Do you think it’s just like reverse water for them?”

[emmakastleton-blog]

“Is this because of that one video where a guy argues that water isn’t wet? On a very serious note, the molecules of water are much thicker and water has stuff floating inside it, so I think maybe they’re vaguely aware? Like they can see the other stuff moving for some reason? But I’m unsure if fish are smart enough to piece any of it together.”

“My head is killing me,” the blonde murmured while posting up against a brick wall outside of the biology building. “And before you say anything — yes it’s because I’m hungover and yes I did take advil but it didn’t work. It never does. I think I’m like immune or something which completely sucks considering how lit the delta psi parties have been lately.”

[emmakastleton-blog]

“You should try midol” Emma said off-handedly as she was walking by the biology building. She overheard the blonde girl’s comments and couldn’t help herself in offering a solution. “I know it sounds like a weird solution it being for PMS and all, but it totally helps when I have migraines. My ex’s mom suggested it once and now it’s my holy grail.” She paused en route to explain herself, feeling awkward for having just intruded on this stranger’s personal moment. But girls gotta help girls, Emma thought.

“So apparently having Zoolander and Mamma Mia as the only items in your movie-watching repertoire is ‘unacceptable’ and ‘embarrassing,’“ Jenny grumbled, putting the words in dramatic air quotes. “So I guess you can name one suggestion for my list. One. But if it sounds lame I’m vetoing it.” 

[emmakastleton-blog]

“Legally Blonde is a classic!” Emma exclaimed almost dropping her coffee. “You can’t go wrong with it; there’s girl power, a crime mystery, and it inspired an equally as good musical. 12/10 do recommend.”

“On a scale of one to ten, how much would you judge me if I got behind that ‘In My Feels’ challenge? Obviously for charity though!”

[emmakastleton-blog]

“Somewhere between a four and a six. BUT I did just see this one of a girl and her dad doing the challenge. Talk about a DILF. I’ll have to send you the video”

“Yeah, no, I’m gonna say three meals of ice cream a day is unacceptable by advice of a nutritionist. Unless you’re asking my person opinion on the matter?”

[emmakastleton-blog]

“I think it wholly depends on the type of ice cream. Peanut butter ice cream? There’s some protein for you. But maybe I’m biased as a pro ice cream eater-er”
