yo yo, my name is juno / 26 / est / she & her pronouns. i’m just trying to get dinner together, so please see below the cut for a quickie intro and then slide into my dms to plot xo

ESRA YILDIZ studies HISTORY and i think SHE is in SECOND YEAR. also, pretty sure SHE lives in BLIGHT HOUSE and they call HER the LIBERTINE . probably because SHE is DEBONAIR, COMPASSIONATE, TEMPERAMENTAL and MENDACIOUS.

STATISTICS.

The classic case of a child that was over praised and over hyped by her overly indulgent parents. Although they were around as much as they could be during their younger years, it was easier for them to indulge most of her whims when they got busier with work.

If they couldn’t shower her with attention, they would shower her with gifts, after all, she kept up with her grades (all thanks to private tutoring) and was generally a pleasantly happy kid to be around.

Grew up in the downtown core of Toronto, was enrolled into Hudson College from the get go. Her father worked a high pressure job for a local bank and it wasn’t too hard for him to pull strings and make sure her name was bumped up a few spots on the wait list.

There were only three schools her parents expected her to attend: UofT, McMaster or McGill. They wanted the best options for her post graduation, and had simply expected she would go on into either a science or business field, either of which would push her into fields of study that seemed lucrative. 

She managed to get by, but it was becoming absolutely apparent that she was unhappy in her studies. It was around her third year that she was at a breaking point and sat her parents down, eventually leading to her applying to Somers.

Where UofT had left her feeling like she had all but sold her soul to a cult, Somers had brought life back to the Academia she loved. A History major, with a focus in Ancient Civilizations and a minor in Art History, she’s is thriving.

Definitely chose Art History thinking it would just mean going to galleries and just something to have as a minor, but surprisingly ended up loving it. 

Moving away from the city was hard, but the fact that it’s a quick drive away makes it easier on her, especially in terms of her social life. Esra has always been one of those people that found herself tight friends in all the popular circles, it’s definitely translated over to her social life as well. 

Although she refuses to accept the moniker of Insta-Influencer, her following says otherwise. She’s always had a keen eye for style, especially when it comes to what suits her. Her posts are simply uploaded for the aesthetic, but it’s not uncommon for her to show up on explore feeds or fashion inspo pages.

esra: it's butt talk time alright. you're a butthead, you must be with the selective reading that brought you to the conclusion that i caught feelings.

esra: why does it feel like you've put far too much thought into this. maybe i'll wanna be like madonna and just go by esra.

esra: you are objectively very cute. satisfied? i'd prefer a darker shade hoodie, it'll fit my winter aesthetic better.

“First of all, if we followed any of those rules we’d have alcohol poisoning before class is over,” Callum told her with a chuckle. Everyone knew Ryerson had a tendency to not only be redundant but also useless. “And secondly, probably most importantly, that sounds like a blast but I’ve been off alcohol for the past two years.” Callum clicked this tongue. “Tough luck, but in another universe, I’d’ve drank you under this table.” A lie. Even back then, Callum wasn’t much of a drinker. Don’t get him wrong, he wanted to be. But the universe and his genes worked together so that he’d be red in the face and sloppy by the fourth beer. And he wasn’t much better with hard liquor either. “I like your style though. I’m Callum.” He held his hand out for hers to slap against in introduction.

she  couldn’t  keep  her  grin  from  growing  wider.  sure,  her  plan  would  have  left  anyone  absolutely  gone  just  a  few  minutes  into  the  professor  beginning  his  lecture,  she  just  hadn’t  expected  to  get  called  out  on it.  esra  screwed  the  top  on  the  water  bottle,  pushing  it  back  into  her  book  bag.  “fair  enough,  but  what  makes  you  think  i  wouldn’t  be  prepared  to  drink  you  under  the  table  in  this  alternate  universe?”  she  couldn’t,  not  even  in  this  universe,  but  the  thought  of  losing  just  didn’t  sit  right.  she  took  his  hand,  shaking  her  head  at  the  other.  “esra  yildiz,  it’s  nice  to  meet  you.  as  shocking  as  this  may  sound,  i  promise  i  don’t  accidentally  pulling  out  a  water  bottle  full  of  vodka  during  orientations.”

esra ✉ jayden

“That’s what friends are for,” she insisted wholeheartedly. If you couldn’t annoy the shit out of your pals, what was the point in having them? Most of her friendships, if not all of them involved a healthy dose of banter alongside the loyalty and love she provided. She chuckled, matching Esra’s smile, “Yeah, nah, I couldn’t actually bring myself to do it. I’d have to be really, really desperate,” she conceded “-but I did do one in Belgium in year eleven,” she added, more of a confessional anecdote than anything.

She nodded her head in enthusiastic agreement, “Defs,” she confirmed, “I’ll let you know when we have a by weekend during the season and I’m all yours. I’ll provide the booze and the playlists, you organise everything else and we’ve got a deal,”

“i  mean,  i’m  not  one  to  judge.  i  did  the  gossip  girl  tour  on  a  family  vacation  to  new  york,  but  in  my  defense,  that  show  had  taken  over  my  life  a  little.”  she  couldn’t  help  but  shake  her  head  at  the  memory  of  how  obnoxiously  she  had  throw  a  fit,  until  her  brother  had  given  in  and  taken  her.  

“i  will  hold  you  to  that!  my  brother  is  away  for  school,  so  we  can  just  use  his  condo  for  the  weekend.  oh,  i  can  see  if  anyone  else  is  down  to  go  as  well.  technically  there  are  like  two  bedrooms,  but  if  we  have  sleeping  bags  and  use  the  couch,  we  could  stretch  the  capacity.”  she  had  never  been  more  grateful  that  her  brother  had  lost  his  spare  key  and  then  forgotten  about  it,  especially considering  all  the  hot  spots  that  were  within  walking  distance  to  him.  the  plans  were  already  forming  in  her  head,  sometimes  a  wild  weekend  out  was  all  you  needed.

“Do you think somebody would put a single earring into the lost and found?” the blonde asked the other. She just wasn’t sure somebody would be that nice, despite being a pretty optimistic individual. “I might just cry if somebody stole it! I spend super long last night staying up making these for myself. Plus, wouldn’t someone look awfully silly wearing one earring or is that the new trend?” the girl raised a curious brow. 

“no,  to  be  honest,  but  it  doesn’t  hurt  to  try.”  esra  was  positive  that  the  odds  of  a  lone  earring  showing  up  in  a  lost  and  found  were  little  to  none,  but  the  other  girl  seemed  upset  enough  that  she  didn’t  need  to  make  it  worse  by  telling  her  what  she  truly  thought.  “you  make  your  own  jewelry?  i  mean,  who  knows  what  people  are  into?  you  could  put  up  a  notice  on  the  board  outside  the  library,  but  wouldn’t  it  just  be  easier  to  make  another  one?”

esra ✉ jayden

esra: do you have a spare hoodie? like one that if you never saw again, like you'd be chill about?

esra: i saw a tiktok about like diy crop tops, but i don't think i can bring myself to sacrifice one of my own...🥺

[esrayildiz]

esra ✉ haru

esra: the way i see it, rose could have just moved and let jack onto the door.

esra: there was more than enough room, all she had to do was literally help pull him up. girl was too fussed about getting cold.

“What if I choose not to believe you? Maybe I’ll report you for alcohol use on campus — then what? Total damper on your day,” Elias said with a chuckle. Whenever he got restless, he felt the need to nitpick at the lives of those near him for entertainment. However, he was grasping at straws today. Clearly. “Do you have any gum? My mouth tastes like gymnastics chalk. How I assume gymnastics chalk would taste, anyway.”

“didn’t  you  grow  up  hearing  that  snitches  get  stitches,  or  something.  i  swear  it’s  a  truth  universally  acknowledged.”  a  teasing  smile  stretched  across  her  lips,  before  she  reached  into  her  bag,  fishing  for  the  pack  of  excel  she  keeps  on  hand.  “here,  now  consider  this  a  bribe  for  silence.  i’d  hate  to  have  to  watch  scarface  or  the  godfather  to  prep  for  revenge  if  you  report me.”

The early morning was hardly Callum’s favorite time of day. The only redeeming thing about being awake at such an hour was that most people were usually too hungover or too lazy to be conscious, leaving the campus a generally quiet place until everybody managed to drag their asses out of bed. It left a pretty decent slice of time for Callum to enjoy being in public, scrolling mindlessly on his phone until the lecture officially started or something caught his attention. Mid-like of a 9GAG post, a voice beside him pulled his focus, his seatmate’s words earning a twist of his lips. “So, which is it? You gonna be wasted before Ryerson pulls up his PowerPoint or are you gonna suffer through this class sober like me?”

“oh,  it’s  definitely  vodka.”  keeping  the  lid  of  the  bottle  lightly  screwed  on  top,  esra  pursed  her  lips  to  try  to  keep  from  laughing  and  drawing  anymore  attention  than  needed  her  way,  especially  now.  shifting  in  her  seat,  so  that  she  was  just  a  little  bit  closer  to  callum  and  away  from  prying  ears.  “how  about,  every time  ryerson  reads  literally  everything  he’s  written  on  a  powerpoint  slide,  we  take  a  shot.  a  double  shot  if  he  stop  to  go  on  a  tangent  about  something  from  his  personal  life  that  he’s  reminded  of,  but  does  nothing  but  waste  our  time.  deal?”

“not routinely,” they answered, trying to defend themselves pre-emptively. “just when i make up two water bottles of clear liquid!” they laughed, “yeah, my siblings were pretty creative about that sort of thing. you could totally pull it off still, i bet. it’s not healthy but in small dose it can’t be that bad, think of all the things that have colouring in it!”

lips  forming  an  exaggerated o,  she  leaned  back  satisfied  with  her  friends  defense.  “i  mean,  to  be  fair,  at  least  you’d  be  saved  a  mid  lecture  spit  take. imagine  having  to  explain  in  front  of  your  entire  tutorial  class  that  you’re  not  choking,  you’ve  just  accidentally  taken  a  mouth  full  of  vodka.”  shrugging  her  coat  off,  esra  made  herself  comfortable  in  her  seat.  “remind  me  to  ask  your  siblings  for  serious  pointers,  because  i  swear  the  simplicity  of  vinegar  in  a  water  bottle  is  just  inspiring.  you  know  the  best  i  managed  was  convincing  my  brother  that  he  was  shrinking  by  buying  some  of  his  clothes  a  few  sizes  too  big,  which  only  lasted  a  day  considering  i  was  a  middle  schooler  with  leftover  birthday  money.”

“I mean, it’s not like I drink every single day, but a party every once in a while doesn’t hurt. And I always try to remember to drink lots of water when I am drinking alcohol so I don’t get too dehyrdated. Well, when I’m not a super ridiculous drunk that is,” Starr explained with a shrug, resting her head on her hand. “And no, charlie horses are no fun, even if you’re not mid-flip. I hate craps, especially when we’re in the middle of a routine or something.”

esra  pursed  her  lips,  doing  her  utmost  not  to  laugh  at  the  image  of  someones  leg  cramping  mid-air.  it  was  terrible,  truly,  but  just  a  little  funny.  “i  guess  shrek  was  right  about  one  thing,  people  are  like  onions.  you  know,  layers  and  all.”  she  still  had  a  hard  time  envisioning  the  other  taking  tequila  shots  off  some  random  at  a  party.  “have  you  actually  had  any  mid  routine?  i  always  imagine  them  to  be  like  those  fail  compilations  that  pop  up  on  youtube.  but,  you  know,  without  any  serious  injuries.”
