[tatepaulson]

I just like the sun, I guess. [Gives a carefree shrug] Besides, a lot of people generally feel happier when the weather is nice.

[esmereldasullivan]

-a small smile curves on her lips, and she nods, considering that as she pulls her jacket closer around her- You have a point. This was the wrong place to come if you wanted good weather, though.

[tatepaulson]

Who, me? Oh, yeah, I’m fine. [Nods her way, shooting her a reassuring look] The bad weather is a little upsetting, though.

[esmereldasullivan]

-smiles a little, as if charmed or amused by this- What do you mean? 

[jetlag-greengrassarchive-blog]

-nods, completely agreeing with her- Somethin’ new, something exciting. No more of those boring shops and crowded bars. Not that ours won’t be crowded. Just exciting.

[esmereldasullivan]

Hopefully crowded, right? -smiles a bit of a wider smile, vicariously looking forward to it- I'm sure it'll go over really well, though. 

[pacif-i-c-blog]

-gives her a small smile, one that just barely shows off a portion of his teeth, and he reaches over, taking her hand. he squeezes it gently, not meaning to come off like he knows that she’s upset, but he probably does, and assures her- You’ll find something. I know you will.

[esmereldasullivan]

-is certainly a bit surprised by the motion, but she doesn't reject it; in fact, she welcomes it. regardless of whether or not she knows he knows, it feels nice to be comforted a little. she supposes if it was what she wanted overall, she would tell people, but she can't handle it, the piteous look in their eye. but this... this is better. its genuine. and she appreciates it- Thank you, Pacific... I sure hope so.

[tatepaulson]

[Looks around curiously with her, experiencing a mild culture shock. He hasn’t really gotten to see many of the non-magical aspects of the UK, and he’s feeling a bit disappointed with the cloudy weather again] 

[esmereldasullivan]

-looks at him after a moment, recognizing the curious look on his face, and rallies with an amused look of her own- You alright? 

[pacif-i-c-blog]

-has been there before, to the ends and darkest pits of depression… so he can see it, regardless of how much she tries to cover it up with smiles, but he doesn’t ask because, like Jet, he knows when not to- Where do you think you’ll end up working? 

[esmereldasullivan]

-that's pretty fair, especially seeing as the usual ball of sunshine hasn't had much practice with the whole pretending she's okay thing anyway, so she's probably not very convincing in the first place- Um, I don't know. I guess I'm waiting for opportunities to come find me. I haven't been very proactive about the whole job search thing... 

[liamfoster-crowne]

[is well aware of the fact that he’s now ruined the mood, and an awkward heaviness weighs down the air surrounding them as he weakly tries to salvage it.] So… Where are we headed now?

[esmereldasullivan]

-is really not much for bad moods if she can help them these days, or should she say, worse moods. so she's all for resurrecting the atmosphere- I dunno. The shops are closed, but I'm sure there's still something interesting to the town... 

[jetlag-greengrassarchive-blog]

-his smile returns, a bit wider than before, and nods- It’s really coming along. You should come see it once we get it completed—it’s gonna be the best thing Hogsmeade has ever seen. You think so? I’ve been workin’ my ass off trying to play dad. 

[esmereldasullivan]

-smiles- I'm looking forward to it. This place needs something new, anyway. -chuckles a bit, nodding- No, definitely. It's really sweet. 

[liamfoster-crowne]

[sighs, and starts down the road, not sure where the hell they’re going to go now. All the shops are closed for the night, and going back to the pub will only provoke him again. Despite his reluctance to admit it, he really does need to calm himself down. He just nods at her statement, neglecting to voice his disagreement. He didn’t leave to spare her; Liam got the hell out of there before he could really hurt somebody again. He was only sparing himself the guilt he’d become far too familiar with in the recent past.]

[esmereldasullivan]

-is a bit thrown by his sudden change, but figures she doesn't know him very well in the first place. in any case, she follows, hoping he'll cool off soon, because she was having some fun actually out and doing something for a change-

[pacif-i-c-blog]

-bites at his lip, trying hard to keep conversation going, as one thumb begins to pick habitually at his nail polish- What… have you been up to?

[esmereldasullivan]

-knows she has to make more of an effort if she's going to convince people nothing up with her, so she tries to smile a bit, shrugging a shoulder- I've been looking for work, though that's been on pause. I just moved, but I should be getting back into the job search... soon. 

[liamfoster-crowne]

[Once the doors to the pub have closed, silence falls over them like snow, but colder, and Liam takes his arm back, shoving both hands into his pockets as he usually does whenever he’s feeling defensive.] ‘M fine. Really don’t wanna talk about it.

[esmereldasullivan]

-as long as she's interacted with people, she's never been one to pry, but that doesn't mean she's not curious. she pushes it aside, however, and nods distractedly, tilting her head minutely- In any case, thanks. It was nice of you. 

[liamfoster-crowne]

[forgets for a moment about what happened the last time he’d been this angry… What happened with Pacific… But when Sully’s voice cuts through him, Liam’s hauled back to the realness of this situation, and how his hands are shaking. He really needs to control his anger issues. And he wraps his arm around Sully’s, pulling her away from the man who wolf-whistles as Liam leads her outside without a word.]

[esmereldasullivan]

-stands there, hoping he'll let it go; she's learned quite recently that letting people you end up hardly knowing fight your battles for you just leads to a shitload of resentment in the end. she's relieved when he turns, and even decides not to complain when he pulls her away, though it does surprise her initially. Once they're outside, she turns to look at him, eyebrows higher- You okay? 

[tatepaulson]

[Just continues walking along with her, then, whistling]

[esmereldasullivan]

-smiles at his chipper sounding whistle, but focuses on finding her destination as they travel down the street, her eyes scanning storefronts-

[tatepaulson]

Ah, the mysterious “there.” [Nods ever so intently] Thrilling~

[esmereldasullivan]

-chuckles- You'll see.
